Well, there are four holy truths of buddhism, eleven faithful apostles, and seven deadly sins.

4 holy truths
11 faithful apostles
7 deadly sins

My first question is. should we decide which path she should take and tell her this. or do we need to find these paths ourselves? (They don't work as wav files).

[Spec]
HOLY TRUTH - Melissa (seek the truth)
FAITHFUL APOSTLES - the beekeepers (aren't we faithful
DEADLY SIN - The pious Flea (attaching to the flea would be the sin? Or this could easily be swapped with the holy truth)

There may be a bit of misdirection in referencing the Deadly Sins, but remember that we may be dealing with Bungie or some other source that believes the number 7 to be significant.

What do we know

I don't have much time, so simply: I got the call, talked to the SP, had her follow the balloons, and find the generator.

Then we came to the three paths. Tried "Faithful Apostles" (after much hemmin' and hawin'), but she just starting screaming, then Operator came back. I *really* wanted to try Deadly Sins (the law of exceptions and all 'o that), but didn't. Ugh.

So, let's start with what we know: those balloons were definitely put there by the Flea, or perhaps that part of Melissa that is under the Flea's influence. So the question is this: do we trust them? If it were the Flea, it would definitely head towards Holy Truth, since that is its entire programming, and it would shy away from Deadly Sin as a matter of course...but what a Covenant considers Deadly Sin might be just what the Sleeping Princess is looking for.

Freedom, for instance.

Or maybe not. Is there any other significance to these phrases? Are they anagrams, perhaps?

My gut reaction would be to guess "DEADLY SINS," just because this is Bungie and there are seven of them. When in doubt...

Peter was the unofficial "leader" of the apostles, Andrew was called first, and Peter, James, and John were the "inner circle" who were closest to Jesus.
