 		 [Trailhead] Red-Dante's Inferno
Ne ideas?
I don't know if many or any of you know of the Christian band called Red. They are a pretty hard band who do some pretty crazy stuff musically. My roommate and I found a pretty crazy myspace site that has some stuff referring to Dante's Inferno. I figured this would be the best place to post this. I have no idea if this is a repost or not. Please forgive me if it is, also the myspace site is this
http://www.myspace.com/Dante_466

If there is ne one who wants to research this with us you are very welcome too. Idk if i will be able to much seems how there are finals soon...and im behind already!

Thanks Guys i know i can count on you!

 		Well on their like to meet part of the myspace page is the following link.

http://www.virgilsusedbooks.com

Doing a whois for it brings up the following:
Quote:
Administrative Contact , Technical Contact :
PROVIDENT MUSIC GROUP
adminSPLATprovidentmusicgroup.com
741 COOL SPRINGS BLVD E
FRANKLIN, TN 37067
US
Phone: 615-261-6500
Fax: 615-261-5914

Record expires on 03-Oct-2009
Record created on 03-Oct-2008
Database last updated on 03-Oct-2008


So I'm assuming it's an "In game" site if this is indeed an ARG.

Email on the site: virgSPLATvirgilsusedbooks.com

Phone Number: 1-931-398-0933

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Search the classics section it brings up the book of the month being "The Divine Comedy" by Dante Alighieri. Click the book and it brings you to the following site - http://www.virgilsusedbooks.com/inferno.html - Which gives you a video although I can't really check it out right now.

If you go to the rare section you get a link to "Other rate items" There's this link http://www.virgilsusedbooks.com/reallyrare.html Which has a poster on it you can download, guessing it could be 'stegged' or something.

 		http://www.870cantorock.com
http://www.dantespizzeria.com
http://www.endofsilencerecordingstudios.com

Also seem to be "IG" - The menu does also seem to have track names within them.

Also weird comments on the MS page... Both from "Charon" and "Beatrice" - The bottom one here is the latest (they're in order from top to bottom).

Quote:
Charon - Hello, ye doomed one. You have a long journey ahead, and I shall be the one to take you to the entrance.

Beatrice - Dante, beware his voice. He wants to take you into deep, dark places. He wants to show you secrets too grim to imagine.

Charon - Through me you pass into the city of woe. Through me you pass into eternal pain. Here never has passed a good spirit.

Beatrice - Remember my love. I will send you help. I will not leave you all alone.

Charon - She cannot go where you must go. Don't listen to her. She cannot journey where you must journey. Your fate is your own.

Beatrice - A great flame follows a little spark. When asked if it's you, Dante, give them the code IIXMMIX. For this is the day of your release.

Charon - He listens well who takes notes. (With Youtube Video).

Beatrice - Dante, you have unlocked the door. Let us go on, for the long way impels us.

Charon - Let us descend now into the blind world. I will be first, and you shall second be.

Beatrice - New numbers have been unlocked to reveal more treasures.

Charon - Enter the foremost circle that surrounds the abyss.

Beatrice - Don't forget to let us know it's you. Reenter with the code IIXMMIX. When you have entered within, bring the keys.
And take care to wash you those wounds within... < Wash those wounds within... Brings you to http://www.washyouthosewoundswithin.com

 		Ok so I read through the thread and did some digging. Here what I've got:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
At the end of the video posted on Dante's myspace there is a code flashed. It is also the same as the code on the poster in the rare books section you guys found before. Briefly at the end of the video it also flashes ".com" so I plugged the numbers in as a webpage. You are brought to here.

http://466623623-263-46784628.com

When you click on the flashing number it prompts you for an enterance code which is the cold Beatrice left on the myspace coments. Then you click on the other flashing number and You are then brought to a page with a quote on it.....select all and theres a whole bunch more to read.....


That where I am now, have not done anything else yet...

EDITED because I am a dumb, and forgot a step!

 		Email
Alright this one sounds like a good one! I emailed Virgil and asked him for some information on his very rare books.

This is the automated response:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Dante -

I cannot help you at this time. Please email helpmeSPLATthefightinside.com for what you seek...

- Virg


This is the automatic response to that email:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I have what you seek...
The fight inside is between who you are and who you want to be...

Soo.. this seems to be going somewhere!

Which is now counting down.....(to my demise???!!!) It says Your day will come above.

In the long string of text on the other page there are some key things that stand out they are A

 		So that image is number 7 of 9. There is a print option, maybe when you print them all and put them together they are puzzle pieces to give us another clue!

Also there was another string of numbers in the video, i tried to write them down but my screen is rather dark so I'm not sure what they are. Could someone check on that bit?
