Adam is the name that Mary Shelley gave to the creation in Frankenstein.

 		So what's the deal here? Does Key one go with Tag 1 and so on? I missed the info drop last night so am looking at flickr, some solved images and a whole load of cipher I still can't seem to crack.

I appreciate the end is nigh and folk may not want to share 100% but this cipher is doing my nut and I'm sure it's something simple I just can't see!

EDIT: Or has it been enciphered 3 times with 3 different keys/methods... Question

 		string-I'm not sure that the keys have any relationship to your cipher.

Doing some research-
Set name: That which holds together other parts
http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=key
So I'm assuming that these keys are going to link everything together...?

It looks like we have to find a common theme between all of the images to solve this one.

Also, yellowmazine- Jedem Das Seine literally translates into "to each his own", figuratively it means "everyone gets what he deserves" which would be a better phrase to go on a concentration camp's gate.

I would also like to mention that the writing under key1 is a Shakespeare reference to Romeo and Juliet and ends with "Refuse thy name"[Adam](This is also something Shelley quoted at me earlier in the game, when I asked him if I could call him Tommy).
key3's text is a reference to Percy Bysshe Shelley's gravestone and is also seen in a Shakespeare play(Tempest).
Quote:
Nothing of him that doth fade But that doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange

key2 seems to reference what led us to this flickr page, and the gate above it.

Does anyone know what is written on Forest's gravestone? It may not be important, but still.

I wrote this down a few weeks ago, also have an obituary for B.J.Y-T if anyone wants a copy. I think Barbara's D.O.B. is either the 4th or 24th. The word after star I can't read but might it be "above"?

EDIT: Some small part of me thinks it should say "to infinity"

 		string- It appears I was wrong. Forest commented on one of the images I uploaded.

The way to unravel letters is to find the three keys Find them under my name (or 5 digit number) at flickr

People have found an alias of ours: 14624 on Flickr. There, the keys to the Ciphers are found. 4 pieces, but, at current, only 3 keys... fourth hidden in plain sight somewhere as well... Our time is drawing to a close...

That may be what is "hidden in plain sight" since the link can be found

 		FFEYT is no longer reading Tweets, only emails. Wondering why... to preserve confidentiality, assure no one steals someone else's work to claim as their own... or maybe he's currently somewhere without Twitter access?

 		I received my package this morning just as I was heading out the door.

Will post photos shortly -- I also received the same card with the sprig of rosemary and the "rabbit in the field" card.



Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The back of my envelope had a tag-shaped drawing with the word "Unna" and the return address.



The rest I will post with photos and descriptions . . .

EDIT ONE: Okay, waiting for photos to load. Link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/erigal/tags/14624/


I will write out the fragments in text in case it is diff. to see:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

My excerpt from Andrew Ure writings: "seemed to point to the different spectators, some of whom thought he had come to life."

I have a complex map drawn in pencil, but I will write the text here:

Top of page:

"To call - to entreat:
* Yoyvpe Bwnsuoqbd kbh wnwdkg
* Yoyvpe Bwnsvoqbd kbh belokq if ibfi
* Qophwk Nrhppishb zis zfvqzg zg spohifz
* Ky tsk bpy re txprj cfc zksl hnv vpqe mo gk fmp pbgr
* Kp lgg ygn tf btzj mhr ephw vrde knhs jcqr hkegvgonboav
* Us nvd mti ez kwtua omyg hbxie ufxsfa."

Middle of Page:

"crowned with thorns" in calligraphy (there is missing text).

Bottom of page:

"Kp lfa tzxy pij vuoe vqtxpipwxr
Hp one laep qwc shu udwi rohjah
Hp one laep qwe qwc qbsu wp vchhug."

In pencil, bottom left:

"Placement of 'voice'"




EDIT 2:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The fragment of calligraphy "crowned with thorns" is part of a hymnal called "The Head That Once Was Crowned With Thorns" by Thomas Kelly, first stanza being:

The Head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.

 		Appellation: "to call, to entreat".

Word also refers to names and naming . . .

 		Could the ciphers on here be Vigenere keyed to our latest keys?
