Nothing from either Apate or the Nobility here. It does not seem promising for me. :/

Well it could really all just be one person going through things one at a time I think things are going to pick up again.

Well, that's weird, I got that message from Apate and yet nothing from the Nobility; they haven't even given me a number or anything yet.

Well, I've been speaking with Agrius and Apate through email. Me and Nix talked a bit yesterday and tried to come up with some good things to ask them. It feels like we're just not asking the right questions.. although it's hard to tell what would be the right questions. Neither side wants to give up any information.

Anyway.. this was the conversation I had with the both of them.

Me and Agrius:

Me wrote:
Apate has suggested we should help you. Since The Nobility refuses to
give me any straight answers, I think you may be taking a more
productive route. Lyssa seems to be one of the few that isn't
completely bonkers yet.

Did you find anything at the condo? Perhaps she left something behind.
A note? Some kind of clue to where she's going?


Me wrote:
I had a sudden thought, check around any lamps in the condo... In or
underneath.


Agrius wrote:
Lyssa left behind a brochure for this kind of condo with the address scrawled on it in her apartment. It was reasonably old; she must have got it somehow when the place was built.

As for what is here, there is not much. The place is owned by a family, there are pictures of them around the place. The mantleplace is full of local memorabilia. There is a tv with basic cable and a pile of VHS tapes next to it. The heat was not turned on. There is a small kitchen and pantry, and rooms for the man and his wife, and their children. There are board games lying around the place. As I said, nothing of real interest that I can see.

The Noblesse have cleaned out Apate's apartment, including his prized lamp, apparently. There are no lamps in the condo.


Me wrote:
That's odd... No lamps at all. Have you checked through the VHS tapes?
Maybe one of them has something on interest on it? Why would Lyssa
choose this particular condo to visit?


Agrius wrote:
I am beginning to watch the tapes shortly. There are 54 of them.

I do not know why Lyssa would pick this particular place, however, I suspect Apate knows more than he is letting on.


Me wrote:
Perhaps I will speak with Apate. There are times when I also believe
he knows more than he tells us.... But it's hard to decipher things
through his insanity. Let me know if you find thing of interest in the
tapes or otherwise.

54 is an interesting number. It is a multiple of 9...


Agrius wrote:
Apate does know more than he says. Often he tells more than he says.

Indeed it is. This may be intentional. Or perhaps a coincidence; synchronicity at work.


Me and Apate:

Me wrote:
Apate, I have spoken with Agrius. We are trying to track down Lyssa.
Do you know when she is? Or where she would have gone? You must know
something... You like her, don't you?


Apate wrote:
Good, time you all learned to cooperate.

When? Lyssa's trapped in the same time frame as you. Where she is now? I'm looking. Where she'd go? Well I have my thoughts but it'd do none any good sharing them; only harm. Agrius needs to learn a lesson before he can see the truth, or he'll never be free of his chains. And you all have your own lessons to learn.

It's not where she is, it's what she wanted found.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Thank you, I needed a laugh.

Many of the Nobility are like family to each other; Lyssa is especially well liked by those whom have worked with her.


Me wrote:
Well I'm glad you are all close. In hard times like these, it's good to have people you can trust. We're currently looking into anything Lyssa may have left for us to find. Oddly enough.. we've run into the number 9 on something that may be of interest. I hope you will keep us posted if you have any updates on Lyssa or otherwise.


Me and Agrius:

Me wrote:
I've received a response from Apate. He doesn't seem to know where Lyssa is exactly, but he is looking and he has ideas. Here is an excerpt from his response.

"Where she is now? I'm looking. Where she'd go? Well I have my thoughts but it'd do none any good sharing them; only harm."

So.. he hasn't given me any clues to go off of. He did mention that where Lyssa has gone isn't the important part.. it's what she wants found. Perhaps the answer is still in the condo. Have you had any luck with the tapes?


And that's all I have so far. Hopefully there's something on the tapes we can work with. I've tried analyzing the emails thinking there was something implied in their meaning. But I've yet to come up with anything...

Ill post the rest of my conversation with apate maybe youll see something I didnt. as for agrius the room description probably means he needs to find a secret message somewhere hidden there.

I think its more important that your ok... Nests can be rebuilt, and just as lovely as the last. At least the others are ok I suppose...Though Aisa being confined doesnt sound good.

Well what to you mean behind the curtain of reality? What did you find if I may ask?

Well I guess its worth a shot with Agrius. Well I suppose I need to start asking the "right " kind of questions....

Quote:
A&D:
Yes yes yes, I was never in any danger- just unbearable agony, but that's the price of meddling outside one's sphere I suppose?

Oh I mean for roughly two weeks I didn't exist, no other way to put it, and what I found was freedom. The priceless egg of memories that will point the way to Lyssa and Aisa and give us all a way to free ourselves from the hold they've had over us this entire time.

Yes, exactly, it will all fall into place. It always does.

Quote:
Me:
My my...you are one odd fellow.. Well I suppose danger isn't the right word. It doesn't really sound like it was any fun though. I wouldn't know I've never been much of a meddler..nor have I been outside of anyones sphere.

Well.. I guess there is real freedom in not existing, It sounds like it was a confusing enlightening journey. Then your going to help the others right?

But how and what way do they have control over you and the others?? I mean..we were born with free will and I think of only a few ways for control.. Blackmail maybe? Hypnotism? Spock's Mind melt?..D: I guess I'm just trying to understand it.

Quote:
A&D:
It was horrible and joyful. Like walking in circles and waving to yourself every so often like you were walking down the same road. Your senses are- Indescribably changed, and the directions you would normally move in are inverted as you run in place and float at the same time. Moments there are eternities here. The sphere isn't a particular person's, maybe an entity's, but it was what you call reality, or this general area in plain space.

It was the only method I knew to get the answers I needed. Soon I'll piece this work together and be ready, but for now- baby steps- I'm feeling so much better though; they can't jam pudding up my ass to my skull and make me spout it like a manic depressive sock puppet.

And the freedom I speak of goes deeper than not existing- it is the renewal of our right to do such things- the right they took from us.

Yes, it seems offering help is what I'm doing, but I see it more as fixing something that irritates me.

Lyssa was the most vocal about it.What they did to us stripped away control, and even handed some of it over to them, I still find it difficult to talk about, not for the trauma of an event I cannot recall, but the lingering effects of the treatment...

They fucked with our heads, fucking them up more than they were already fucking fucked I must add!

I'm getting past it, and I think I can do the same for them.


So a lot of nothing... but he swears he is going to help....

I've mailed a little with A&D and Agrius myself, but I don't think I got any new information out of it.
I got a new assignment, but it's not the same one some of you got:

Quote:
Thank you for your patience in waiting for us to contact you further. We have a new assignment for you.

Your assignment is to listen. We would like you to listen to your surroundings and write down observations that you make while doing so. These observations should be made with the idea in mind that what stands out to you is pertinent to you. This assignment should be completed by Monday, May 9th.


I'm honestly not sure what to write.
