I tried transmission and got the SOON reply so I tried Orion. My question was about Morcar and if we would see him again. This is Orions's resonse
Quote:
Morcar, The Wanderer
Remains in wilderness
Feral, like a beast
Running in fear from the engines and noises and lights
Unfamiliar, unnatural
Hair has grown long
Primal needs reached
The desert dweller long ago left the City of Sin
He greets each sunrise
Bare, Unshackled

I guess that's a no?

This is going to sound retarded but I think Orion was an Elvis impersonator? I say this because Jimmy Ellis was shot and killed on 12-12-98. He impersonated Elvis "The King". I just went back and read an old Orion email that mentions the "False king" dying on that cold night of the 12th. I could be totally stretching here though.

Try offering him a peanut butter, banana, and honey sandwich - or something deep fried. If he answers to that then he must be this Jimmy 'rion' Ellis Elvis impersonator!

Orion's response when I asked if he was a singer:

Quote:
Some might say a great one, even.


Which makes me think I am right. I responded with some clarification on who I thought he was.

Sweet. I guess. :\

Ok, so here is what I gather (and Orion is gone now I believe):

Orion was Jimmy Ellis stuck in limbo. He was stuck there until he could make someone realize what happened to him was wrong and it can't be allowed to happen again. The again is against Jonah I believe. Orion just asked me if he could leave now. I told him he had done his job and good luck.

So uh, what do we do about Flynn?


Note: Seeing as Diptera is the origin of Fly, that leads me to believe Diptera = Flynn.

Perhaps a clue as to how... I saw a poisonous needle mentioned. Diptera are a species of fly that feed on blood. I don't know maybe this is nothing..

Quote:
These hematophagous animals have evolved different specialized mouth parts and chemical agents for penetrating vascular structures in the skin of hosts, mostly of mammals, birds and fishes. This type of feeding is known as phlebotomy (from the Greek words, phleps, vein, and tomos, cutting).


Once phlebotomy is performed (in most insects by a specialized fine hollow "needle" called proboscis which perforates skin and capillaries; in bats by sharp incisor teeth that act as a razor to cut the skin), blood is acquired either by sucking action directly from the vases, or from a pool of escaped blood, or by lapping (again, in bats).


I am probably being too literal but maybe he's planning on poisoning Jonah somehow.. Probably a stretch but threw it out there for color

I think that is a good guess. Anyone have an idea what the Devil's Money is? Souls?

It was capitalized so I guessed a title for something, but all I found was a blog at the Absence of the Absess indicating American money was from the The Devil.

http://sophiaalmaria.blogspot.com/2008/03/devils-money.html

Other than that, no clue.
