Well each time you hit a dead end in the maze, you get 2 letters. Perhaps we have to travel to each and piece them together?


Of course as I say this, I realize that many of the dead ends don't give you letters...

Third edit: I found this pretty much just going right at every possible time, then backing up and going left

Did you collect the pieces along the way to contact us? at http://www.theseventhsons.com/rayoflight.html

And, after going through every room in the maze, I got the text, in this order:

Upon e-mailing, theseventhSPLATtheseventhsons.com...

Mmm, email. Nicely done!

By the way, tommymcgrarh, how'd you find this one? Was it a lead-on from the spheres puzzle or a lucky guess?

The passages quotes are from "The Prophecies of Paracelsus", the 7th and 8th prediction.

I wonder, did we????

Because after that is a secure login page.

Noticed in chat this morning. I spec'd we have 7 levels to get through (and we've been skipping stuff by guessing).

First entry was as "seeker" on the purple page (entry->antechamber).
Second entry was as "initiate" on the red page (hall).
If the pattern holds, then "adept" on the white page (sanctum).
Next color will be yellow, then blue, and finally green.

We need "rooms" in the temple.

I guess the 'pieces' are the snippets of text we encountered in the 'maze'. They form the email address, so that could be the key to get in.

I also tried the colored text from the new page:
Code:

Colors:
ff00ff:   Bureotoieoanepf
000000:   opeheowdenheetu
00ff00:   sevenlatords
ffffff:   hhhtsbgeitbprr
ff0000:   ectnfhnTcfysooo
ffff00:   losovreidefnas

You copied down the green letters incorrectly, or they changed it to:

sevenlastwords

or

Kender -- Why don't you add a note that 1.html leads to the e-mail address theseventhSPLATtheseventhsons.com, which most likely will allow us to get through secure.html

Thanks. Well, I had tried about everything else, and i was working on the idea that the answer to SPH might be a single, or double digit number. I poped in 1.html, and....
