After Niantic Project posted about an obvious dead drop in Cross Plains, Texas at the Robert E. Howard museum, I raced to obtain the drop. In the package, a note was found. It could mean nothing, or it could mean something beyond my realm of knowledge in this game. I believe it's worth sharing.
Thank you very much for sharing, Keisha W. !
ReplyDeleteIt seems REH's green flash event left him with a pretty detailed view of our present. Like Felicia Hajra-Lee he may not have realized his vision was something other than a vivid product of his imagination.
One more thing - Dr Edgar Allan Wright, any relation?
I wonder who his pen pal is?
ReplyDeleteMike Wissinger you're welcome. Seems people were curious. :)
ReplyDeleteDavo Brawn Most likely, HP Lovecraft.
ReplyDeleteDavo Brawn that's probably HP Lovecraft. We've uncovered some of their correspondence in the past.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteDaniel van Os that investigator medal spoke to me. :)
ReplyDeleteDid they really say "inbox" in 1934? That seems like a rather modern term.
ReplyDeleteRory Durkin
ReplyDeleteNope, it's old. It refers to the little plastic holders for folders people used to have on their desks. Email just copied it.
As they say, what's old is new again.
Rory Durkin Yes--the current term comes from an actual physical box or tray that was used for incoming mail and documents--same with outbox.
ReplyDeletePaul Fritschle
ReplyDeleteThere was usually 3 boxes. Any clue what the third one was called?
Robert Pruitt work in progress? That's what I call mine.
ReplyDeletethank you Keisha W.
ReplyDeletetrapped in a room????
ReplyDeleteJoJo Stratton you're very welcome. :)
ReplyDeletePaul Fritschle
ReplyDeleteYou know, that sounds right and wrong at the same time. Lol
I've probably seen some labeled that and some labeled something else.
Thanks.
It sounds similar to the CERN facility after lock down. "Scientists trapped in this infernal room in a laboratory". Perhaps he's referencing our wise men, Martin, Stein, and Yuri?
ReplyDeleteWow, so the Niantic Project researchers are the corpses of Abaddon. And I imagine what is trapped in a room is their bodies since we've recently learned that they are all XM simulacrum, similar to Hank's body in the 13Magnus nest or Jarvis's indestructible body that was at Niantic for a period of time then moved to the CDC. Thank you very much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat I'm really hoping for right now is the actual manuscript for Corpses of Abaddon. I wonder if that will leak out now?
ReplyDeleteDavid Timothy I imagine it features about a dozen bodies that are all inexplicably resistant to damage hidden beneath the LHC. The big question is whether the 3 wise men learned about them between ShaperData and the assault on the facility when they were released.
ReplyDeleteFor those that need a refresher:

"Corpses of Abaddon" sounds to me like it could mean something about dark XM simulacra, or perhaps that bodies that need to be stored in the special portal clusters that drive the generation of simulacra. Or even the kind of weird XM-affected corpse that Jarvis left behind for a while. Many possibilities...
So - how come HazData missed all these bodies as did the troops that went into CERN during the shutdown... is it the same that allowed Kureze to remain in place as Hank found him in Level 8?
ReplyDeleteJoJo Stratton Yik Sheng Lee I am thinking along similar lines to Mike Wissinger . I believe there may be another facility at CERN, perhaps beneath the LHC itself.
ReplyDeleteOr who's to say they missed them? Not everything leaks as it occurs... 😉
ReplyDeleteDavid Timothy Unlikely--we've had leaks post Shonin that show a number of groups are trying to find out what happened, 2 of which (NIA and IQ Tech) have access to the original Niantic Project facility.
ReplyDeleteYou're assuming that Calvin told either of his employers everything he was up to. Or everything that was going on at CERN. I think that Calvin knew the story, but he isn't telling anyone right now.
ReplyDeleteWow!! This absolutely incredible! If REH truly wrote about these Corpses of Abbadon, its a marvelous revelation to the likes of Felicia Hajra-Lee's An Exotic Matter and Andy Nominus' screen play.
ReplyDeleteIf all of the disappeared sensitives are indeed simulacrum, then their corpses are waiting to be discovered...
Nice work, Agent Keisha W.!
But what happens when they are discovered... :/
ReplyDeleteYeah, scary thought. My question is...did they die during Epiphany Night? Or when else? Calvin has been around a while...
ReplyDeleteJoJo Stratton how might they have missed the bodies? They missed Henry Bowles . They might have been in the same room the whole time. Calvin was always many steps ahead, but he might not have thought to keep 2 safe rooms off the site blueprints.
ReplyDeleteI want to find Calvin's secret office behind the arcade machine. Wouldn't that be cool?
ReplyDeleteMike Wissinger Do we know where the room Bowles was in was located? In the main facility, or someplace else at CERN?
ReplyDeleteThis was a great find and very timely. Abaddon is finally taking shape!
ReplyDeleteOnly that it was described as a sub basement IIRC, Paul Fritschle
ReplyDeleteKeisha W. thank you so much for sharing this information. It help us connect some dots but raise other questions at the same time.
ReplyDeleteMichel Matteau it'll be interesting to see what happens now. Just happy to help. :)
ReplyDeleteRobert Pruitt The ones I remember with 3 boxes were "Inbox", "Internal" and "External". You'd put your outgoing mail for other staff in Internal, and postal mail in External, and the mail boy would come by and collect it. I may or may not have been that mail boy on my school holidays :-p
ReplyDeleteH P Lovecraft used to mix science and the occult in the stories that were published by Weird Tales. The Colour out of Space comes to mind. I guess this one was too scientific for Weird Tales.
ReplyDeleteEtrange ...
