crack-fueled speculation! (someone call Hamish)
Posted By: rosignol <rosignol@nwlink.com>	Date: 2/24/01 12:39 p.m.
In Response To: Just in case... (Anonymous Coward) : Just in case the text 'disappears'... : -- : two palaces, far apart, 6,000 years the wiser of 3. the wiser of 3? A reference to the three original AIs? 'The wiser' might be Durandal, but maybe not... : communication of : discovery pulls them closer, but their distance makes them weary, : confused, time is lost. amy persuaded kayla to depart, as the phoenix : emerged from the south, never to touch the ground again. a hole fills : itself in, almost a million are lost in the blink of a heart beat. that is : where i come, to be the lost, 10th of the 9. It's worth pointing out that the page at islandfour.com is titled 'destiny'. What is meant by '10th of the 9' looks like a warping of the usual 'ten cyborgs' reference.... it could be an indication that the old 'what are you' question is going to be reopened. =) : there has been some stipulation as to what waste removal and the likeness of : bodily function, my age and what i represent. i am the oldest of the old, : i was there when evil became evil and prior to that they all feared me. i : am that which you burn, but also that what is grown from the ashes. References to the Phoenix, but the phoenix is a reference to something else. Nice puzzle, going to have to work on it.... : your discarded carcus, Carcus? Is that a typo? Mebbe meant as carcass? I don't want to overanalyze a typo, but it could be an obscure reference to something... aaargh. Google turned these up, tho.. http://staff.washington.edu/nfreier/soph/carcus.html http://members.aol.com/mittin/carcus.htm So I suppose it could go either way... : an empty rice box, a new life on a fetal monitor, a : rebirth of an old, forgotten religion. The Covenant is described as religous zealots, but it doesn't quite fit. Does anyone know if the S'pht worshipped the Jjaro? : water, Aquarius? : darkness, i give chase to the mighty hunter, Mighty hunter = Orion? : that i might once again strike him, destroying his : world, but creating another, bigger, emergence of sin, repent, and : deception, a faux ego, one so large, that i pull : the crab closer for stability and for nurishment. if you haven't seem me yet, : its because you don't exist, never have and never will. death, rebirth, : dirt, life, me. Seems to be describing a cycle, which would tie into the Phoenix references... : as kayla lifted her rose crushing site, [zap] : Has anyone got any idea quite what's going on? I personally think it's a : post-apocalyptic throwback to dire British sitcom 'Birds of a Feather' : (characters 'Sharon' and 'Tracey') - but I could be wrong... :-) I have no idea. That last paragraph was utterly loopy. However, you should have tried to keep the original formatting on the page- [i heard of a childrens story with an epic ship, full of tasteless life] Didn't matt say something... "- The interior of the covenant ship we’re working on now is huge; a massive structure of curvy, shiny metal and these enormous docking bays for dropships. " It could be that 'tasteless life' refers to esthetics. Apologies to ydnar, but I recall describing the alien ship patterns in M2 as 'alien golfers on acid...' =) mmmmm.... good crack....
