And with a coded poem? Awkward wording, but with Ayden that's normal.

I am like the anchor
that passes through me
into these highland homes.

Time, flowing,
water through pipes
to an ocean of brae.

Crests, and valleys:
coats of arms,
while not perfect,
I work for who I am:
different than those
that study.

The poem is eerily similar to a riddle i read some time ago. I wish i could remember the answer. Might help us

EDIT: of course riddle or not the first thing it brings to mind is william wallace

OMG, Amendel. Excellent response!

I, too, sent an email to Ms Shemenweather with my questions for Raven.

Yipee! Was hoping you (and others, of course) would. Maybe Ayden's poem is a type of Mnemonic he or we will need later? It does have beaut poetic resonance.

Mm, both Ayden and Augie made reference today to Augie being red and round. I don't know if that's a clue to something we're supposed to find. It could just be that it's the PM writing all of this, so he's going to reference himself in more than once place. I'm just saying...

Ayden's poem, the one taught to him by Augie, is interesting.

Let me see if I can keep my train on thought on the rails for a minute or two, and you all can check me if I'm confused. All of this is complicated by the fact that sometimes one group was piggybacking on another's transmissions, so the messages aren't neatly on separate boards for each group, more's the pity

Ayden/the operator/the curator/the mechanic are associated with the Keepers, whose resistance fighters are the Stoa. The Keepers' narrative is that they terraformed and settled Mars after a cataclysmic event on the earth, which broke into three pieces. The Keepers keep "theirs" -- they're what? Their history? Their information? They maintain the stumans on Minos/Earth/Mars? Ayden has made a couple of references to studying "them". Is that stumakind at large, or the Wallites, or some other as yet unnamed "them"?

Augie/Artie the Schmarty/Raven are associated with the stumans/Wallites (the Hunters?). Their narrative is that the earth didn't break into three pieces, they're apparently still there, though it's now called Minos. They believe that Ayden and the Keepers have been lying about that whole cataclysm thing. It sounds like Raven used to be a member of the Keeper/Stoa group, and betrayed them, perhaps by taking documentation proving the lie of the busted earth (Raven, how could she? And 'Then came Augie. And the papers'.)

The Hekadem has fallen and the Porch is overrun by the Hunters. The Mechanic is in the wind. The Operator and Ayden appear to be the only ones still in touch from that group. Ayden has been running -- TO the Hekadem, which has fallen, interestingly enough (did he switch sides? Does he HAVE a side?).

Does this about sum it up so far?

Both groups seem to want to get to Wallace -- the CEYTOS/Stoa for as yet unknown reasons, and the stumas/Wallites in order to protect him because he's basically the founder of their order.

This is what I sent Augie about the poem. I wasn't sure how to word it so we do not reveal we are stoa.

Dear Mr. Augie,�

I've been having dreams...dreams I've never though possible, considering the age that I live in. Ive seen golden fish, red and round people, some of the most strangest dogs I have ever seen (dreamt?) and celebrations...oh, the celebrations i have seen!!! �I've been concerned because these words keep repeating in my dream..it is as if someone was trying to talk to me.

I am like the anchor

that passes through me
into these highland homes.

Time, flowing,
water through pipes
to an ocean of brae.

Crests, and valleys:
coats of arms,
while not perfect,
I work for who I am:
different than those
that study.�

I've consulted with my fellow Stumans and they suggested I consult with you for your input. They suggested you, because you are from the future..and, well, these things I have seen are definitely from the future!

I eagerly await your reply.

Jennifer
