With my picture I didn't need a password.

Well this one did. Smile It opened in Camo with the PW "15" giving this addn'l "righthand.jpeg" with possible numbers.

EDIT: Have also tried Camo on the new jpeg with on joy yet. Believe 15 may lead to two names "one has been chose", one not yet

I'm noticing a pattern. My picture should lead to 13's name. Yours is giving hints about 15. If I'm correct someone will recieve a clue to zero pretty soon. I also got an email form Nuri.

Nuri:
Quote:
Death is here
Smell it and smell it well

It is for me but it bleeds


Search for what I say
Hunt and you will see



It is in your hands.

Thank you
Nuri The Hungarian
The Great Hag


As a response to:
Quote:
Okay so I know I am not seeing something. I found hope.txt and never.jpg. Who is TheLongHunt? I have a feeling this is something I am missing. Also, why are you afraid of death? Who is trying to kill you? The red one?

Looks like we need to hurry up on these clues to save Nuri.

I've found 2 wordpress blogs: http://thelonghunt.wordpress.com/ which has a comment from romered, which leads to http://romered.wordpress.com/

Also, I believe I know what righthand.jpg says. Look closely, see anything familiar? Laughing
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It says rad24. In an earlier email on the previous page, Elizabath named me her right hand. Though, if she thinks she has a "chain around my throat", she's sadly mistaken Wink

...rad...you're 15. Nuri believes you rule her if you are 15. You are our inside contact. As for my picture we need to find a clue for another password on thelonghunt. I'm searching now.

Emails from Elizabath, first one is after I mentioned that Nuri knows I am her right hand:

Quote:
Nuri isn't a problem anymore, dear.


And then another, after asking about Hunter:
Quote:
Hunter will be taken care of, don't fret on my behalf. Concentrate on the girl.


So, looks like she trusts me. I'm gonna see if she knows anything else about the girl.

Well we learned the girl's name from the Hunter. I've emailed both the hag and Elizabath. I think it's best if we leave contact with Eliza to you from now on Rad. It seems as though Nuri trusts me and amandel, so we'll work on trying to help her out.
Here is a theory though.
Nuri said 15 rules her. We can assume Rad is 15 a.k.a. the present. We already learned 13 is death(presumably the hunter). Nuri believes 15 will kill her. All the numbers are linked to killers. 0 must be the one that will kill Elizabath. That makes everything make sense. Nuri did say, "0 could be Demetrus themself." Zero could be any of us. Our goal, is to kill the Red One.

Email from Elizabath, after asking if the girl has a blog or anything of the sort:
Quote:
I haven't found her here, yet. My efforts lead me only to Hunter, although I do not put it past her, stupid as she is, to open herself up that way.

I assume by "here" she means the internet.

Something on the blog looked like a direct response to me.
Quote:
Things are coming together nicely.
I no longer fret. The source of all of this trouble still holds too much knowledge, but I haven't been out maneuvered yet.
This is a war I do not plan on losing. I will surrender nothing.

I sent her this email to which she did not respond:
Quote:
I have contacts who have been speaking to Nuri. We are trying to find out both sides of the story. After all this is an information war, I know what you think I don't. The same applies to Nuri. I am impartial for now however if I find you are hiding something from me I will drift away, from you.

I think she is getting very personal with the players.

Then what's 16?

I'm not a mathematician, I just play one on tv.

Kewl work, right-hand-Rad although that chan looks pretty tight Twisted Evil ...

Sadly, my suspicion is that Nuri has meet with death and Eliza has yet to choose her left hand

Anyways, 16 is something that blinds Elizabath according to Nuri. I'm guessing this is either the girl or someone who holds her weakness.

I always seem to gravitate towards the bad side, don't I amandel? Laughing

That's what I'm thinking too, that Nuri is dead. Also, another Snow White connection to this. On Hunter's blog, it said the girl's name is Blanca (I assume Elizabath knows this too, since she's seen the blog). Well, Snow White in Spanish is Blancanieves.

EDIT: Just found this, in the source of the "Fruition" post on Elizabath's blog:

As for who may be left hand:
Me:
Quote:
What does Blanca know that could harm you? Also, it insults me that you have chosen rad as your right hand already. You don't know if you'll even find her. Just a little side note, you've only driven Hunter away, he loved you.

Elizabath:
Quote:

He betrayed me. He is not capable or worthy of love. It wouldn't surprise me if he, in fact, were in love with that bitch.




I want to be offended at your constant annoyance with me, however, do I detect a hint of jealousy? If so, there may be hope for you yet.

Wink

There's a new clickable image at the bottom of thegreathag.webs.com

It leads to this page: http://thegreathag.webs.com/thelongjourney.htm

EDIT: I found a translation on Wikipedia of most of the text on that page, it's an old Hungarian text called the Funeral Sermon and Prayer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funeral_Sermon_and_Prayer

I also found a site explaining the meaning of the Temperance card on that page: http://www.toniallen.co.uk/temperance.html

Temperance is #14, #13 is death (which we were told), #15 is The Devil: http://www.toniallen.co.uk/thedeviltarotcard.html and #0 is The Fool: http://www.toniallen.co.uk/thefool.html

Wikipedia also has some more info on these cards. I found this interesting for the Temperance entry:
Quote:
In most modern tarot decks, Temperance stands between Death and The Devil. He or she (traditions vary) guides the souls of the dead to judgment.
