 		Suprise, suprise children!
Well folks, it appears that we have a mystery on our hands! I made a discovery today and here it is.

So, Taluria found the email to OrionSPLATsilverladder.com and me with my wonderful instinct decided to email the fellow. Here's how that went:

Quote:
So, where can I look for you in the night sky?

-Fish


And he proceeded to reply with:

Quote:

It's not me you're looking for. You can't see me anyway. I was Reborn
from the Sun, rising from the coffin, but they didn't let anyone see it.
I gave them my voice for the Last Dance, and they only called me "Friend."
It doesn't matter if it's a mask or a jumpsuit. In your eyes, I'm not
even here.

You're looking for a doorway
In the places where it is cold for many days
And the cycles of the sun
Bring about an unforgiving age


After some trial and error with Orion (and a few more emails) I went back to the above email and it led me to:

http://silverladder.com/sl2/

to

http://www.silverladder.com/winter/index.html

to

http://www.silverladder.com/winter/iceage/index.html

And on this page there is a hidden link to:

And as you can see, we're in a whole new world children.

So, the return of Silver Ladder? We can only hope.

 		Thanks for starting the thread, hon.
Anyway, I sent the usual, "Hi? Anyone there?"-type e-mail to the Orion address. The reply was:
Quote:
I need to thank Gail for writing that book. I know what it's like to want
to hide... to want to escape. She gave me the right idea. There is a
freedom here.


I asked who Orion was, and who Gail was, and got this reply

Quote:

Gail told my story. She told it before it was my story. I made it after
she told it. It make me wear terrifying and monstrous masks. It let me
be Reborn from the Sun, risen from the coffin. But no one saw it happen,
even though they called me "Friend."

Who am I? I am an old face and a new name. I am the static on your
television that sounds like a voice singing a familiar song. The moment
you listen closely, it is gone. Or at least you think it is.

This is a Warning.


Spooky, much?

Edit: Asked what it was a warning of, and if he knew the Jack of Spades.

Quote:
I know Jackson. I know of his demise. I know of his cheating, lying
eyes. I know he will one day rise again.

The show must go on.


Edit 2: I sent this:
Taluria wrote:
You keep speaking of rising. People are on the rise, Korp claims to be on
the rise, and who else? I've never claimed to be the best nor the
brightest of our bunch, but I certainly am curious. Did Jackson lie to you
or cheat you? Inquiring minds want to know.


Orion's reply:
Orion wrote:
Jackson and I met very similar demises.

Jackson cheated no one but himself. I wonder if he had a good world when
it happened... enough to base a movie on.


Edit 3:
I asked what kind of movie he would have been, in regards to the last email

Quote:

If I was anything like the one I emulated, my movies would have been
disastrous farces. There would have been singing and a love interest. It
was a formula across the board. That's what you get when a military
officer is running the show. But I wasn't him. I only sounded like the
King and dressed like him.

Jackson's movie would be self-indulgent... like him.

Edit 4:
Taluria wrote:
The King? Who? The king of what?
Were you in the military, or working somewhere that was overseen by
someone who was?
Self-indulgence to excess can be worrying.
How was Jackson self-indulgent?


Orion wrote:
The King answered to a Colonel. I was a mere mirror image. Therefore, I
answered to no one but myself.

Jackson is self-indulgent in every conceivable manner. He kept records of
his misadventures. Sometimes I felt like he did it just so he could live
through his journal

How's the hunting going?

Reply from Orion:

Quote:
If you speak of the perfect note that I am always in search of, I believe
I found it. Too bad I can't share it from this side. I can sing as loud
as I like and you can't hear me. I can wear a mask the shade of Sun
colored vinyl and you can't see me. But I will continue to lament the
Cold Cold Heart. I like it better over here. It is much more peaceful.

 		SUM OF TONIGHT

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
After all of this happened, we recieved a clue that we should look over Jacksons page again. Going there we found that there was a updated link with a Message reciting in a robotic voice going on about how 2/29/2008 at 12:10 that a bomb was dropped and that there is now emergency procedures and junk. That Date and time was when Shane Watson revealed that he was indeed Shane, and Ended SL essentially "Dropping the bomb"..
In the page source of that Page there was
"
p
i
c
c
o
l
o

f
i
o
r
e
"

Meaning Small Flower, which Dillon pointed out to be Small Rose. Upon heading there we found a letter http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x232/WyattH1/BackCover.jpg
Talking about Mico Rison (Moco?), Jack Rake (Jackson?), And Barney (??)
Also hidden behind the photo is some text decoded by Smile
"Only Moving because of the Cold"
"only moving because of the cold"
"Insults (In suits?) a bit?"
"1034AM Doctor"
Also the word doctor is seen a bunch..
In the Page source for small rose there is a link to the photos he had previously up and smallrose webmail.
Valid emails I discovered:
micorisonSPLATsmallrose.com
jackrakeSPLATsilverladder.com

No Barney yet...

 		Hi guys.. ltns eh?

anyhoo.. I was listening to the audio from the page...

and you'll notice the back half of it is reversed... well, I just HAD to reverse it back and see what was going on.. so I did. Razz

Turns out, a quick google search based on things in the audio led me to this video on good ol' YouTube

also mentions Feb 28th.. so.. look into to it more for me.. I gotta go to bed.
