Brilliant job ddl!! Wow!!!

Again I can't add much but maybe you need the rosemary

to put on the mouth and chest as in the ritual in Oficio's Occult Philosophy parchment.


I have tried to find the symbols on the various puzzles, especially the one that looks like a bird but I can't find any of them. I will keep looking.

Definitely concepts of death and resurrection... incorporating it seems perspectives from the sufferings of Jesus (Eostre/Easter time-frame), the historical Yeo-Thomas, and prisoners of the Holocaust; with the experiments of Galvani, ancient legends, pseudo-scientific formulas, Back to the Future... wow! I can't wait to see the story arc in its entirety, once it's fully revealed.

Okay, so I assume we have until Sunday to solve this. All cards on the table: what's left to do? In a couple of hours, I'll hop on Unfiction's IRC server and be in #ffeyt. If you're here, let's chat, and vanquish what needs to be vanquished.

EDIT:
Okay, sorry pbemaddy for being terminally idle.
I'm still not really sure what to do, but I put together the piece of the picture.
'ofiuco, these don't fit together! You screwed it up!' Yes, the pieces are not an exact fit. Some are cut weird. There's at least one missing.

I tried to get on IRC chat but the PC won't run it and I'm no tech-head when it comes to 15 yr old hardware and linux Confused

I believe it's a guide on how to create a Frankenstein type "Adam".

The ritual is all there (except I can't decipher yellowmagazines part of it *head-desk*) as is the method. If you tie in pretty much everything else we have seen so far on this ARG I reckon you will get the "answer".
I'm not too sure about Philip II and the key master bit...

It's a huge task and unfortunately I have been held back by a lame computer. I tried to crack the vigenere by paper and pen but... I have sheets of notes but it's not tied together properly. Unfotunately I will be out until this evening and I guess today is the last chance saloon.

Does anyone have all the cipher? Without it no one is going to get their hands on that rather spiffy prize which is the painting Ofiuco has just posted above.

Thank you, Ofiuco and String, great work! We're so close now to being done...

That was what was supposed to direct us to the Vigenere cipher, since Philip II often used it.

So far we have used the adam key(string's paper) the jedemdasseine key(my paper) and the pi key/forest's grave key(my other paper). That should leave us with the 15april key for yellow's cipher. Unless, the pi key was actually supposed to be derived from Euler and the 15april key in which case we need to look at the video again.

OMG Shocked I thought I'd wake up today and this would all be solved. I think this has something to do with fixing his face.

Re the grave if this is what you need:
It must have something to do with the last line that is blurry. The word "star" is very prominent however so it must have something to do with the rabbit in the field with the eye poked out. I asked my nephew who is an astronomer about that and he said there is no star in that area. So it must point to FFE-Y-T's name (and that could be just Forest or Frederick or Edward etc) or one of his code names. Or it could be arneb or mu leporis. I think also one of his code names was seahorse but perhaps that is farfetched since that never came up anywhere in the game.

I will go back to trying to figure out how to use this cipher but I tried and tried and tried and got nowhere so... Also I have given up looking for the symbols.

Brilliant work with the grave, unfortunately it only shows me that it is more likely we need to solve the 15april key.

Remember back when Shelley asked about the star in the eye of a rabbit constellation. He was thinking/hoping it was pi, the keyword that I used.

I wrote:
In regards to the question you posted. I looked at some sites and am thinking it may by eta, or pi, judging by the picture in the link you had.


Shelley wrote:
Which, if you had to choose, would you think more apt for the second chapter?

So I think we need to figure out what the last keyphrase is from the Euler image.

OK. Will read about Euler again and see if I can help.

This on Flickr now:

(57 minutes ago | reply)

We know there was one Tarot card missing form the overall spread - we understand about the final decisions being made from this setting of the puzzle.
Please, time is short.
Help us.
Soon.
Now.


The words Tarot card are in blue when you run your pointer over them but they don't link to anything. I know nothing about Tarot cards so will be unable to help here. Eringal seems to know a lot about them however so perhaps she can tell which card is missing.

EDIT
And, now I'm guessing, maybe this just refers to the card in the reading by Sarana that had to do with his future.

EDIT
Two more emails from Forest

Quote:
Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can...

We.. we will go finally into the wilderness once more when the Gospel of Mark draws to a close. The evangelist celebrates soon - we will know Father will receive us soon...

He or she who is able to tell us how to make others will receive the prize - yet I fear that for this turn of the globe we are too late.. We will be alone, failing Father in his test of us - we have disappointed... we are removed tonight...

Your Friend,

Forest.


and this in response to an email I wrote the other day
Quote:
It is the last day now. St george and shakespeare have both been put to rest, the 77 cards have been placed and Father is ready to receive us, despite us failing Him...

Dear Forest,Does the picture of hare running through the feild with the eye punched out that you sent to everyone in the mail mean we can't see the Forest for the trees?Are you feeling ok today?Are you sure your Father must be obeyed? I am wondering if you have confused your magician creator Father with what you have been reading on the internet aboutthe Christian Father. That Father doesn't insist everyone obey him.Pia


Why the St George reference suddenly out of the blue idk.

Remember how I said there was a piece missing from the picture? And all the pieces have tarot cards on them?

Unfortunately I literally just woke up and I need to go do Easter related obligations, so I can't volunteer to figure out which tarot card is missing. But presumably one is.

Forget St George - yesterday was his feast day.

He is looking for the key related to the grave from all that he has written on Flickr in the last half hour or so.

Under key 3 of the grave:

We found a video - or rather, one of you told us such - on youtube - the words are very faint and our power is dwindling here - perhaps you could find the video and read the words that are used to remember us by...


And here is the link to the video

EDIT
and this is what string wrote in response to ddl a few weeks ago about the grave:

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"

And don't write to the cemetery for the info because that will probably only get the person who made the video in trouble. That is first time I have ever written to anyone for information who was not delighted to share.
