New Email
YES!!!

I just got an email from Sigyn. She was kidnapped, and still wants our help find Loki and solve this thing.

Text below:

My very loyal friend,

I have been in hiding. The story is pretty rough. After I got the last puzzle, there was a huge crash and the door was broken in. Several goons came in and I could not escape them. I was drugged and found myself in a car, blindfolded and heading south. I pretended to be asleep and listened to those jerks who had me. I was terrified. They were taking me somewhere to "find out what she knows" then "take care of her"

I Could tell I was in the back seat, my hands were cuffed, I tried the door, the child locks were on.

So, I took a deep breath, I layed on my back and kicked to what I hoped was the window, I felt the glass shatter, I quickly reached over the broken window and pulled the outside handle. The door opened and I tumbled out, still blindfolded. I grabbled the blindfold, I was STILL in Brooklyn!! I ran down the block, and into the subway, jumped the turnstile, and prayed.

I layed low, found some friends to help me, and hid out. I didn't know what to do, Loki was missing, probably dead, the Lokileaks was a complete disaster. Now people were after me, and I was probably marked for death myself.

If Loki weren't dead, I'd kill him myself...No, not really. I miss him like a hole in my heart. every day he's gone, is a day I'm sure that he's dead. But its hard tp mourn with out a body, you know?

Anyway, instead of a mass email, I've sent this to ONLY you. You'll get the word out

I'm back. And I owe it to Loki to find out why that bomb was stolen, and who is behind this

Sigyn


Loki would say expect the unexpected? But what does that even MEAN? Expect to hear from me soon.

 		I just discovered odd jobs a few days ago and read through the whole thread here. Excited to see that there's more yet to do. I'd like to make this my first ARG experience, if you'll all have me.

 		Huh, I just got a reply to the original job-placement e-mail, the one with subject "Loki" and that jazz. Sigyn sent me a slightly different reply this time though, summing up what's happened so far with a link to this thread. Says "Follow the trail, I will be in contact soon", so hopefully we'll be back on the road with this shortly.

A clue for you, or maybe two.

Seek to find the who what where and why

The search begins anew

Fire and terror from the sky.

We must all band together to blind

those who would seek use the weapon illegal.

Brave face, seek and ye shall find

at the website that is named .....

 		Finishing the rhyme scheme, looks like www.ny-eagle.com is on the table.

EDIT:
Check out the link at the bottom of the main article on ny-eagle. There are some interesting articles posted there. I'll check it out once I'm back home tonight.

 		Also at the Science page bottom a nudge toward: http://www.openmind-partners.com/ Works with the rhyme, too. Smile

 		The most promising part of openmind, I think, is the article called "What Happened in 1945?"

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://openmind-partners.com/Articles_1945.html


The last page says that there's a movie that'll be posted up soon. Also, the picture on the bottom-right side of the screen has some dials that can be read when view independently.

 		Great job, Cowbell, for finding the Open Mind site!

At this point there are a few plot elements I'm thnking about

The "1945 Unuseptium Wormhole Device" :
We know Loki was trying to intercept some kind of device, we know some terrorists want some super- weapon. This could be it.

The "disappeared" :
Loki is gone - through a wormhole? The dead/not dead/ super old Karl Justice also a traveler? The missing artist with codes in their work - from NE Eagle - also through a wormhole? If so, where to?

The Graffiti
This must be a clue. It's driving me crazy. Now I can't get ot the ink on the site, but all the pics were up-thread. [/i]

 		I don't know if it's relevant or simply a typo that they misspelled "Damocles" as "Damaclese".

ETA: Actually quite a few typos in the text.

ETA #2: The coordinates on the dials point to a building in Berlin. Looking at Google Street View there's a ton of graffiti in that area.

 		'The Sword of Damaclese' (Damocles) article seems to be talking about Ragnarok and how they are trying to prevent it. I don't know if this is important or whether it wsill be important later, just thought I'd point that out.

 		Hey, guys! I got the first three issues of Old Soldiers in the mail today (to clarify, I didn't order them, they just showed up!). They came in a manila envelope - nothing special. The return address (written on the back) was Big House Comics, and there wasn't anything in the envelope but the comics. I'm assuming they're just trying to get the game moving.

Anyone else get a little surprise?
