 		Random thought
I thought Madrigal sounded familiar and looked through the book The Time Machine. Those were Morlocks not Madrigals. Guess i made a wrong turn! Madrigal is a word MEANING:
Quote:
1.
a. A song for two or three unaccompanied voices, developed in Italy in the late 13th and early 14th centuries.
b. A short poem, often about love, suitable for being set to music.
2.
a. A polyphonic song using a vernacular text and written for four to six voices, developed in Italy in the 16th century and popular in England in the 16th and early 17th centuries.
b. A part song.

That 2b definition just got me to thinking - Like a four part song? What if the Madrigals are what the direct line of Cahills are called? The part of the family that aren't a family branch, but the trunk of the family tree?

Well if developed in the 13th to 14th century, that may be when the branches started

I've mentioned it before as well, what I was noting more was the part song, family parts connection.

I posted before about the madrigals being a combination of all four branches and my reason was also that the meaning of madrigal is a part song.

 		 Section 7
I've seen many people here saying that the letter given on the last page of 1FN is about madrigals. I cannot find anything which suggests that this letter is about madrigals. Please help me out. Where did you find anything related to madrigals in this letter?

Since the letter said thet their agents "impersonate" Cahills to "infiltrate" the four branches, we assumed that Section 7 has to be something to do with madrigals. Or else why would Section 7 be so interested in the Cahills and the 39 clues?

Because it's a front for the Lucian branch's clue hunting ventures?

How else would a Lucian of high rank be able to tell this shadow organization that they have to take in his dimwitted brother? (Gordon Klose)

You got a point there about Gordon. But still, why would the Section 7 agents need to "impersonate" Cahills to infiltrate the family if the agents are Lucians and are already Cahills?

Actually, some of us here have been doing that already. How many of you created other accounts in other branches? This is just the same

In addition to what BEDOMII said, doesn't it make sense for a bunch of spies to know how to get into places they're not supposed to be by using disguise? Smile

 		Even in the early days of the Cahills, clues where already being planted and readied. This leads to the questions: who decided they should be placed and why? Either in the early days the clues where a combined effort of the four branches, or they where arranged by a third party. This third party could be the Madrigals. My theory is that the original cahills found the secret to that power. They all shared this power, and soon began to fight over it, as is human nature. The secret was turned into the 39 clues by the Madrigals. Each branch recovered some clues and hid them to keep them away from the other branches. The Madrigals saw that ultimate power did not end well, and decided to make sure no one could obtain it. I think the Madrigals are the "trunk of the tree" as was said earlier. Out of the branches, some Cahills did not believe anyone should have ultimate power. They joined together and had a sort of coup. This band of Cahills from all four branches became the Madrigals, a song with four parts.

I like this. Must have taken you a bit of time to come up with it. For all you know, the Madrigals are protecting the clues from the corrupt Cahills.
