 		Some have added the Youtube TEDO account as a friend, and received a message welcoming them to their group.

Tylean found out quickly and posted a new message to his wordpress:
Quote:
There are those among the apprentices, who would betray us.
I must increase the watch. I fear for you if you go down that path.


Looks like a war is beginning, indeed.

 		Out of curiosity and not expecting a response at all, I got this email reply to friending TEDO on youtube:

Quote:
An apprentice of the Ancient Betrayer! Welcome to our cause. Thank you for joining our efforts. We will have guidance for you soon. The book will be ours again.


Wanting to reassure Tylean immediately that I'm no betrayer, I sent him this email and hope he understands:

Quote:
Tylean,

Wanted to reassure you promptly that although I was seeking information I stand with you and for you. I will not respond to the others. My character is good and I hope you will trust that I'm no betrayer.

I am sure your character is good, but how do you know that Tylean is the good guy and not TEDO?

 		I don't know for certain. We'll see how it plays out, but my intention is as it has been to help Tylean.

 		I do not believe that it will help us in the moment ... but here are the starting scores and lyrics of the last midi song (only the ones with lyrics)

 		Just poking my head in. I don't know if this makes any difference, but the Stone3 image is apparently a topaz:

ETA - think I've figured out something with the lyrics above, more in a bit...
Ugh, false alarm.

 		New stuff on Tylean's Blog, includes the following:



Quote:
My dear friends who choose the darker path,
Please understand, I mean no ill will nor wrath.
You must choose wisely between what you are told,
But in the end all we can do is let destiny unfold.

I perceive that you are troubled by what name the book might have.
Therefore, consider this:

46 69 72 73 74 3a 20 20 54 68 65 72 65 20 69 73 20 6e 6f 20 6d 65 74 61 70 68 6f 72 2e 0d 0a 53 65 63 6f 6e 64 3a 20 20 54 68 65 72 65 20 69 73 20 6e 6f 20 70 72 6f 73 65 2e 0d 0a 54 68 69 72 64 3a 20 54 68 65 72 65 20 69 73 20 6e 6f 20 6b 6e 6f 77 6c 65 64 67 65 20 77 69 74 68 20 79 6f 75 20 79 65 74 2e

There is no shame in lack of ken,
But I will remind you yet again,
Time will help you, Time will tell,
Time will guide all your hearts well.

 		The code in the post converts to:

Quote:
First: There is no metaphor.
Second: There is no prose.
Third: There is no knowledge with you yet.

 		I'm assuming it's about the 3 poems.

 		"Time" seems very important. But the hints do not really help me.

First: I have no clue
Second: I have no idea
Third: I really have no knowledge

 		Abie's Guidance
Speaking of guidance, I just got this reply to a request for assistance with finding the name of the book. Need to get coffee before considering the contents but wanted to post quickly.

Quote:
"Good reputation"...Well I guess you do not know my story. For those who knew me, I was an average apprentice. I had reached the rank of Head apprentice, when my brother died. I was almost ready to take the final test. I was almost ready to be able talk to the Book without assistance. I had been researching what you would now call "temporal mechanics" for my final 30 years of Advanced training (that's how I earned the nick-name "the Time"). Tylean did not approve of my area of study. He worried that I would start meddling with the past, the highest crime of our order; highest aspiration of the Order of the T.E.D.O. For this my...reputation...as you put it, was not what was expected of the Head Apprentice. When my brother died, I allowed myself to loose control. I forgot the lesson of the Jaguar...I should show you that lesson one day...it is easy but I don't think that Tylean has the time to teach it to you...

Anyway, you probably do not want to hear the rest of the story; it is all...in the past.

Let me help you with the examination...I hope that Tylean forgives me for giving you a hand...

The first two tasks are trivially simple (at least with regards to resource problems) and the answer is in your language. The third...well, that's the easiest of the all, but you have not been apprentices long...so you yet lack knowledge and you cannot speak or read yet.

The TYPE of stone is not important. It belongs to a CATEGORY that has interesting properties. The category's name is "fe tnel ejertnul" which loosely translates as "stone that can do" or "the stone of power". There is nothing inherently magical about the stones themselves, but they are able to be "forged" with the help of the Book into obects that can focus our power. Each senior apprentice must forge their own stone to begin advanced training. The stone must be clear (or at least easy to turn clear), but once the process is complete, it receives a soft white glow. The NAME of the stone in (your language) then becomes "The Stone that is White" or simply "White Stone".


Editing to add Abie's email address for newcomers who might have missed it: abiethetimeSPLATyahoo.com

 		I just joined but I have a theory.

I think the Book is the 'Eternal Torah' and the Name is Adam as it is known as Adamic language. It's also related to Hebrew and a few other languages. Read the line on Kabbalah...i'm still looking into it though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adamic_language


I may have also found the solve for the 'white stone'. Also religious
