 		Wait string why are you wishing us luck? Isn't that everything? Someone(not me because I really shouldn't even be typing this right now) just needs to send Forest all the text and we'll be good.

Also- should the out be our?

 		Ritual for a companion
Ah, I thought we had to describe the process as well as the deciphered words?

EDIT:

I just fired off my thoughts and the ciphers and all the stuff on the papers in an email and received this back from Forest:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

"we thank you. We will share this with Father... We will arrange the painting to be sent to you as we leave where we are kept tonight. Once again, thank you to you and all who may have helped. Forest."



Looks like I nailed it and get that AWESOME painting Very Happy Very Happy


I will EDIT this post again with my answer.

Here's what I sent Forest (rather rushed!):
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Forest,

To call a manitou to a body. The body must be dead three days and the time to do this is the full moon of aries, libra, gemini or capricorn. Under the light of the moon, the full moon on either an equinox or solstice.


Place the body to be re-animated in the centre of a circle. At the bottom of the circle place a copper bowl and in it put:

[With] a preparation of one part adult human blood, three parts 2,4- dichlorophenoxyaceticacid and one part boiled -
thrice water, pervade the flesh with the mixture under
light of the moon. Allow the veins to be infused before arteries to
ensure that, post-galvanisation expelling of impurities from the flesh
occur during excitement.


On the left and right of the circle there should be placed the nodes so to allow a current to flow (from a battery or lightning?) in order to galvanise the body. On the left should be a positive charge and on the right a negative.

At the top of the circle should the voice be placed:
At a frequency of 45.5 megahertz: the
full name of the deceased should be repeated into the external auditory
canal on both ears. This will resonate the timpanic membrane, producing
nerve simulation which, in conjunction with the galvanisation process of
the brain, will encourage memory to be reactivated.

The ritual should be completed with the words:

We are they you have instructed
We are they who you have taught
We are they who wish to return

To call- to entreat:
Father Nanbozho who watches
Father Nanabozho who brings us fire
Father Nanabozho who brings us healing
We ask you to guide our lost one back to their body
We ask you to help the body heal with your preparations
We ask you to watch over their return

Hope this helps, you have been good to us.

-string-


This has been so much fun and soooo educational. Hope there is more to come since this was the end of the beginning.

 		Aaaaaaaaaaaah Shocked Where is everyone going? Come back!!!!!!!!!

This is what you need from what is posted under the egg:
Quote:
Put the bigger posted prize pieces together and tell us how Father does it, with what ritual and science, and when to do it, in an
email. First person gets the prize.


I thought the ritual had to do with the pamphlet Ocult Philosophy from Ofiuco's package but maybe it has to do with nanabozho, idk. When must be today's date or under the light of a moon.

The voice part maybe to fix his voice? Maybe give him a human voice. He has to communicate with a keyboard which must be very difficult and frustrating to do.

EDIT
Congratulations string!! Super amazing job putting it all together!!!!!!!

Thank you. It really was a team effort though, you cracked my cipher for me for example. (Turns out the key "Adam" makes every other letter readable as it were. A happy coincidence...)

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The symbols turned out to be "Manitou" ((thanks ddl) the one that starts with what looks like an "L") and the small circle with the four symbols around it was the full moon with (clockwise from top) Aries, Libra, Gemini and Capricorn which all start near, or on, either a solstice or an equinox. So with the spring equinox 2011 in mind (equinox at about midnight GMT with a full perigee moon) I made a stab in the dark about the time the ritual should occur.

 		Congratulations!

I personally think it'd be cool if we got a pass on not getting it in on time... timezones being what they are. I mean, we did do it eventually!

 		Oh I assumed we had until midnight Sunday? LoL oh well.

Sent an email to Forest a few hours after he confirmed the right answer and this came back:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
This email was not received. Target recipient not integrated with server. Please check address and send again.

Seems he has been "removed" from the computer. Check address and send again, hmm.

 		Forest did say he would be leaving us. It appears he was able to send one last tweet before he left.

Quote:
We are done-for now. As Mark the Evangelist writes about the strands of DNA that we all have, we remember those that have gone before us.ZCS


ZCS = Cease sending.

 		Awwww!

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/intueor

There must be something more to the Mark stuff. I'd almost know what he was talking about, if it were not for the fact that in the Anglican church, this year they did Matthew for Easter, not Mark, which is, alas, the extent of my knowledge.

 		I found something about Mark the Evangelist.

Quote:
His feast day is celebrated on April 25, and his symbol is the lion.

 		YT tweets again despite swearing he's made his last tweet. I believe you this time, Russell T. Davies.

 		Your painting is up on Flickr string. And a tarot card. And to answer your question: I'm not sure. I will have to re-read the entire thread now.
