So - considering the location of next week's Flash Shard events (Boston and Houston).
So - considering the location of next week's Flash Shard events (Boston and Houston). Will Misty appear in Houston due to her Texas ties? Is Yuri connected to Boston in some aspect? And who will be linked to the next two (London and Zurich). Thoughts?
I was pondering this question as well. Any evidence out there that connects Yuri or Misty to these cities, or general areas? (Besides Misty's connection to marfa, TX)
ReplyDeleteThere is this - http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/pac/IB/04/item/3anomalies.html -
ReplyDeleteAnd she showed up there after escaping as well - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByveE2b4jJI
Remember that Houston was not originally the location for flash shards.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Boston might have been a study site for Wydah or a predecessor project? Or planning for Warratah?
ReplyDeleteOf course, Misty's TX sites were Austin and Marfa, so it's possible that Yuri has some other ties to Houston and Misty to Boston.
ReplyDeleteIs Klue S. tied to Boston? Did we ever find out how she is?
ReplyDeleteYeah, the Misty - Houston connection is not difficult to make. Yuri - Boston is puzzling to me. But maybe there doesn't need to be a connection to the past, perhaps a connection to the future will be made. Or perhaps previous significant XM events in Boston has made it a natural place where XM objects like the shards may drift to.
ReplyDeleteBoston is known for having the first library in the United States, and has a well known museum of science. Might be related to Yuri's love of academia. Several well known colleges aren't too far either.
ReplyDeleteBut I have a feeling it has something to do with Project Whydah. What do we know about Project Whydah?
I'd expect Oliver Lynton-Wolfe to pop up at one of the sites (either as shards or in person) and, after Hank Johnson mentioning Carrie Campbell in one of his recent posts, I wouldn't be surprised if she reappeared. The circumstances of her death never quite got cleared up and she could've had her consciousness uploaded after exposure to that glyph sequence.
ReplyDeleteThere is a "Whydah" galley that capsized off cape cod in 1717 and was later embroiled in a Boston court battle... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whydah_Gally
ReplyDeleteThat Galley was apparently named for an African slave-trading Kingdom... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Whydah
ReplyDeleteThere's also a Whydah bird that lays it's eggs in another's nest (similar to a cuckoo). Maybe a reference to infiltrating other organisations?
ReplyDeleteYuri was a part of Whydah... https://plus.google.com/+NianticProject/posts/abXfAkPUiWB

ReplyDeleteI entered in the precise coordinates for Whydah as found on Tageo and found an Ingress Portal: https://www.ingress.com/intel?ll=6.367,2.083&z=18
ReplyDeleteThere are also 3 more portals south of that along the actual coastline.

ReplyDeleteApparently WHYDAH was the name of the Newsletter for the African Academy of Sciences: http://aasciences.org/index.php/publications-and-resources/spa?start=7
ReplyDeleteIs there a connection also with some ancient region of Lima, Peru?
ReplyDeleteI might be in Houston looking for answers.
