 		 (39clues) Madrigals
I know that this wasn't discused in the main branch but I thought that we might as well have a topic
Just a topic to discuss what the madrigals are. Don't worry if it sounds far feched just post it. Like I thought for a while that they were section 7 of the us governent. I got this from the kloses info and at the back of OFN there's a letter. I'll leave you to read it. Very Happy

 		I think Grace, Fiske, Amy, Dan, Man in Black, maybe Jonah's father are Madrigals. Madrigals are impersonators. No idea what purpose they serve, though.

 		One of Dan's favorite tv shows is "The Replacements"

I posted this in the theories thread, but it goes here, too:

Madrigals infiltrate by impersonation.

1FNch2pg109
Quote:

"How do we get past all these people?"

Dan thought it over. "When you go to a movie, what do you pay attention to, the audience or the screen?"

She frowned. "What are you talking about?"

"Maybe we can melt into the swarm and slip out the other side."

Amy wasn't a fan of crowds even when she was totally welcome. The idea of putting herself in the middle of thirty enemies made her nauseous. On the other hand, it was a plan - their only plan. Waiting around was risky, too. It was merely a matter of time before somebody realized they were intruders.

"Let's try it."

They stepped briskly out from behind the statue, not quite running, trying to project an air of belonging. Dan sidled up to the fire-sword audience. Amy joined the throng around the squirt painters, who were removing their latest creation from the wheel - a sunburst of reds and yellows. Her timing was perfect. The spectators burst into a rousing ovation, and she applauded along with them. Nervousness turned to exhilaration. She'd done it! She was one of them! A cheering man clapped her on the shoulder and nearly knocked her over.

 		I searched madrigal on dictionary.com and it says:

Quote:
a secular part song without instrumental accompaniment, usually for four to six voices, making abundant use of contrapuntal imitation, popular esp. in the 16th and 17th centuries.


All right... a part song, for four to six voices, popular in the 1500s, about when we suspect the Cahills originated. Sort of like separate voices (the branches) coming together to create the madrigal. So the madrigals are probably a combination of all four branches. If unity of the branches leads to the ultimate power, then the madrigals know the secret to ultimate power, making them the guardians of the secret.

I'm not positive about this, but it's definitely a good explanation and something to think about.

Sounds very interesting.... definitely a good explanation. The thing is, if Madrigals are a combination of all four branches, why would the section 7 letter (which we think may be ralated to Madrigals) say that they have to "impersonate" cahills?

 		Maybe over the years the madrigals forgot that they were descendants of the cahills but only thought of themselves as guardians. Maybe their idea of guarding the secret is infiltrating the branches and stopping them from finding the clues.

Very good theory Sherlock. Thing is, why arent the madrigals looking for the clues themselves. They could be infiltrating the branches and stopping them from finding the clues so that the Madrigals can get to the "ultimate power" first.

Ultimate power can be very attractive....

But if the madrigals had the power, there would be no hunt, book series, or most importantly, money for Scholastic. Wink

That is something to think about.

But really, I think the reason they won't take it themselves ( assuming they are some type of guardians) is that they realize that no person deserves this "great power", or people would misuse it.

 		Frank Butler: madrigal?
Has anyone noticed this? In the link for card 72, it's the code for the madrigals. It says keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. In the i like useless facts for annie oakley, when it says she got married to Frank Butler, the person who writes in red (the person who sort of knows about the cahills) says the same thing, as if it was a secret reason for marrying her. I'm pretty sure that means he's a madrigal.

http://www.the39clues.com/cahillweb/article/72-prestige is the code book of the Madrigals. Prestige rule # 1 is Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

The Annie Oakley article on the web is http://www.the39clues.com/cahillweb/article/i-like-useless-facts-annie-oakley
it has the phrase "You know that saying about keeping your friends close and your enemies closer? "
