Just jumping in to say hi to you all!

I have work here in front of me, but I can't work with TSE and now this Glass Heaven thing.

I'm totally new to ARGs (didn't even know they existed till last week), and I'm really excited! This is FUN. I loved this coded alphabet thing. I think I've seen this before (the crazy letters in the images), can't recall where though; same type of letters.

Hope I can help you guys tomorrow after work! I'll certainly email them tomorrow during the day, see what letters come accented in their replies.

(100kfireflies, why don't you email them back with "The Pristine Fiend" or something like that?)



Welcome Andrekka! I'm not sure I wanna play that card with them yet. I wanna see what Naruse and Prophet get tomorrow. I am tempted to ask for a different task.....decisions, decisions.

I'm really liking the little team we have working on this one right now.


As we have many different things mentioned in the guy's posts, like people's names, photos, drawings, maybe it would be a good idea to start a new board just for this ARG, where we can split the threads and work on them separately. Any one here knows how to do that? (newbie? who?)

Maybe not email them the sentence, but it's just that the image somewhow relates to your latest email:

pristine |ˈprisˌtēn; priˈstēn|
adjective
in its original condition; unspoiled : pristine copies of an early magazine.
• clean and fresh as if new; spotless : a pristine white shirt.

(white? like the white picture?)

fiend |fēnd|
noun
an evil spirit or demon.
• ( the fiend) archaic the Devil.
• a wicked or cruel person : a fiend thirsty for blood and revenge.
• a person causing mischief or annoyance : you little fiend!
• informal a person who is excessively fond of or addicted to something : the restaurant's owner is a wine fiend.

(ill-will, evil, devil)

I'm thinking this is key to something.

 		Hrm I'm waiting on a reply to my e-mail so let's see what I get maybe some people are special because of location or other information.
I sign all my messages with a pretty neutral name and pronoun piece and I am rather formal in my speech so I wonder if it'll get me anything.

 		Gonna tell a story
Okay y'all so, as instructed in the previous email from GH, I asked for an alternative task. I got this reply:

"You wish for the alternate task? That is fine. You may choose either one.

Tell me a story that would bring me joy. It does not have to be long; it could be six sentences if you wanted. It just has to bring me happiness."


So I highlighted all of the message and found this:

"You wish for the alternate task? That is fine. You may choose either one.
better than the alternative
Tell me a story that would bring me joy. It does not have to be long; it could be six sentences if you wanted. It just has to bring me happiness.
don't trust them, trust me"

So yeah....I'm gonna tell a story.

Also,I should mention this. For all of us who have been emailing GH, have you noticed the correlation between the Red, Green and Blue text and the Joy, Purity and Life ideals? So, they seem to distinguish themselves by the color of their text. In my first emails about finding Joy, it was in the red text, which corresponds to the initial email and the second image Will posted.

That weirdo quote that I last posted...it was in black text.

This last message above, was in red. Methinks several eyes are reading the emails.

 		My email was all in black with no secret messages.

What you got is very cool though, 100k! Be sure to post your story when you've written it Smile

 		My first email to GH
This is their reply. Colors as they sent me, italics is hidden text.

"Greetings. We are sorry about your difficulties, we do not have as many representatives in as many locations as we had in the past. We can serve as your representative at the moment.
don't trust them
I hope that I can help you in your struggles to find enlightenment, and I know that the best joy will find you if you continue on in pursuit of our truth.
trust me
I know that there is a way to be pure again and use the gifts of the Glass Heaven that have been given to us in a just way, and if you'll join us, we can train you in these gifts.
do what they say, but don't believe them
The greatest of all is life in enlightenment. I hope and pray that you will continue to seek out enlightenment through your entire life.
make your cry from the tower
If you have any questions about how to begin on your path, please do not hesitate to write again, but understand that only you can start on this path. We cannot do it for you. You must have the desire.

Joy • Purity • Life

 		Just got an unsolicited email:

"Choose your words carefully, the slightest wrong choice can make all the difference."

Talk about pressure!

 		How to reply
I want to send a hidden message to whoever is sending these hidden messages. Wonder what I could ask him/her though.

Maybe what the tower is?

Any ideas?

 		Obviously some relation to 100k's earlier passage:

Quote:
"And the man from the tower cried, "We must go back! There is nothing for us here! There is no tolerance for us to find here. There is small difference between true clarity and false belief! We must go back."


This tower thing is intriguing.

I sent a response, will post if I get anything back. Smile I thought perhaps they were signing off for the night, but looks like perhaps not! Unless those of us who got "we will return tomorrow" mails have to wait.

Just a thought, is it only people who were referred to as "special" that were told they would return tomorrow?

How about:

What is the tower?
and
What is the Pristine Fiend?

 		Awesome, Andrekka.

So here is my story.....very loosely based on reality, but I think it is happy, right?

"I had been a cancer patient for over a year and a half. I had 15 rounds of chemo and was waiting for the results from my last round of bloodwork and MRI images. The same day that I was to get those results, my sister went into labor with her first child. The happiest moment of my life was walking into my sister's hospital room, holding my nephew for the first time and knowing that I was going to live to see his first birthday. My bloodwork and scans had come back negative. I was in remission and have been since that day."
