Footage of Lady N (cosplaying as http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/2472/hitgirl01.jpg in the second Fireside Chat; MK had http://i.imgur.com/1uyKp9N.jpg) in a Skype chat with MK. A distorted voice, presumably Lady N's, repeats "Michael". An automated voice states, "You have two saved messages". A Morrowind or Oblivion combat track plays possibly in reverse in the background. The message at the end is "You said we would play it".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J-agukWPOY plays in the background, and the Bethesda logo as it appears upon Skyrim start-up is shown. A fountain pen writes "You said it would play us". A drawing in MK's style is shown (http://i.imgur.com/gaKQYqz.png). Includes a link to http://www.imperial-library.info/content/1-4-26-190, which is a picture of http://images.wikia.com/elderscrolls/images/1/17/PGE1-13.jpg from PGE1.

Footage of MK is shown. http://www.gamesas.com/user/707537-dinmenel/'s forum avatar is displayed many times, notably overlayed onto an image of Lawrence Shtick, the Lead Loremaster of TESO. This http://turnyournameintoaface.com/ was used to create the avatar, but neither "dinmenel" nor "Lawrence Shtick" return the same avatar (though it's possible it's entirely random). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2v9K98RzbHI&list=PLCC2676E23AB41832 plays (correct me if I'm wrong--it's definitely an Oblivion track, but I'm not sure if I linked the right one), among other sounds - a voice saying "recording" (Lady N Skyping again?) and "I watched you as you disappeared", sampled from Tom Waits' "Watch Her Disappear" from his 2002 album Alice. The footage and the song is taken from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXD3StsKCJk. The same video is linked on the words, "seems like we can never have it again" in http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1443737-tsirelsyns-bound/. Near the end, two images flash up (http://i.imgur.com/4ACtLvh.jpg and http://i.imgur.com/8U5BK69.jpg).

Footage from http://thiscircularparade.com/2011/12/13/the-execution-of-mary-queen-of-scots/ is shown. An x-ray of a rib-cage and lungs flashes with the overlayed text: "...and why are they...especially favored...with immortality...why no immortal...". Seemingly randomly generated ASCII characters are displayed with "authenticate?". Later, the words "initiated transmission" are displayed. "Transmission failure" and "message memospore?" flash. Throughout the video, images ofhttp://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5716/checkthecandles.jpg (possible 8 lit and 1 unlit), a tree, a heart, a depiction of Lokapala, and http://images.uesp.net/4/4a/RG-misc-Forebear_Truce.jpg are shown, as well as the ancient Nordic symbols of a hawk and snake as they appear in Skyrim. There is footage of what appears to be a Bollywood film.

Later, several people emailed the http://memospore@gmail.com/ and received this message:

"&--#60;memospore corrupt&--#62;

What are dragons and why are they especially favored with immortality? Why no immortal bears? And the Gods knew that they had to depart the Mundus, to let it cool. It is the rumbling of the Greybeards that wake him."

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/154911/mem1.jpg, openable on notepad, came with the message. Opened on notepad, the text comes out to http://pastebin.com/2ULERnc3.

The hidden message is, "&--#60;memospore corrupt&--#62; ... What are dragons and ... why are they ... especially favored with ... immortality ... Why ... Why ... Why ... no immortal bears? ... And the Gods knew that they had to depart ... the Mundus ... It is the rumbling ... of the Greybeards ... that wake him." The same message as earlier.
-------------------------------------------
Another file recieved came out, reading http://pastebin.com/uQ2t4ZvM.

The hidden message is,

"and yet mankind was still vulnerable
in their world and
would know no
foul and alien hegemonies and"

We received a http://imgur.com/g6nSyHGfrom MK, with the following text:

"Boma Kuro (V.O. - CONT'D)

From my apartment I can see past the walls
into the black cloud of their presence.
Behind all that smoke are the indistinct
yurts and horned-skulled posts of the
Kothringi nomads, meant to ward off the
indecencies of the city."
-------------------------------------------
We recieved a http://i.imgur.com/wuBGeBM.png from MK, as an example of how to decode the memospore emails that read:

"Pelinal, Periff, Hjalti, Emp Zed, and various other Rebels are
outlining their new raid on the WG-T-One, the Sugar Plant
displayed before them by the visiograph presentation.

Boom and Periff exchange glances. He notices the small scabs
along her neck. She smiles shyly at him anyway.

BOMA KURA (V.O. - CONT'D)

If I could, I would spit into my palm and
show it to her, using the nomad curse. Even
I don't know what it really represents. But
she deserves something of the sort. For the
looks she gives me. All the while using
memory footage of my failure to stage
another attack against my people.

HJALTI

... assuming reinforcements, of course.

Otherwise, we set the Dragon Breaks here,
here, and here."

important as of yet, but we're awaiting a clue. I also cannot let this stay off
the first post.

We've received http://imgur.com/OraMsy2, another email from Memospore. It reads:

"BOMA KURO (V.O. - CONT'D)

(This section blacked out). I
had studied comparative religion at the
University. I know this is something called
sympathetic magic--my death will be a
metaphor for the death of the Empire, or
perhaps the colonization of Cyrodiil in
general. More than a metaphor, my professor
would have said. It will be a guarantee.
Seeing the traitors below, I am just glad"
-END OF TEXT
-------------------------------------------
We've received http://i.imgur.com/v6mLlUp.jpg, yet again from memospore that reads:

"BOMA KURO (V.O.)
I am the Creator-Destroyer. I am the false
form. I am the joy and the dirge. My name
is Boma Kuro, 143, the luminous red-scaled
pariah of all dead cities to come."
-------------------------------------------
We received a 51 page https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_Fcw3XyoouPbTFEM0pXOUVOUUk/edit. It reads:

Ha, no, I'm not posting that here.

Good man. I dunno if that last bit is still valid anymore, though.

Removed.

Hiding thread ten is going to be hopeless, isn't it.

What took place tonight must never be known to the general population.
We must try.

Seriously, can someone explain what happened last thread?
I'm kinda lost...

People keep posting in it.....

I'm trying to make sink it. I need help though.

MK promised to talk about the 1008th post. Hence the spam. The winning topic was...typical.

So, um, I made it to the IRC just in time to hear "And I guess that's a wrap."

...

What did I miss?

Its a secret.

I PM'ed you.

A SECRET?!
QUICK INTO HIDING!

I'll try and help.

Everyone, contribute please.

Hoo boy, that was something. What was all that about "Imperial As Is," though?

It was the Spear Meeting of Vivec and Reman. I saw it. Now I know why the Shonni-Etta was kept a secret. It was to spare us the horror.

...Not quite. I didn't save the link or chat. Perhaps someone who did can let you in on the secret?

Oh, are we allowed to talk about it?

Very kind of you, but I'm on my phone and can't access my messages... :-/

I doubt implication is the same as being oblique about it, but I'll not be saying anything more.

Watching the Lore forums light up is amusing, though. I'd help you guys bury it if not for an appointment with Doctor Who Season 6 I'd postponed for the IRC chat.

Success! Now no one touch it!

Holy hell, second page. If somebody posts so help me, i'll beat them to death with a herring

I'll join you, I've picked out a rubber duckie for the job...
Fingers crossed its not revived.

Lets not even talk about posting, lest people wonder what we are talking about posting on.

Lets not even talk about not talking about posting, lest people wonder what we were talking about not talking about posting on.


EDIT: Wow, I derped and forgot half of the sentence.

So....how 'bout them memospores, eh? *looks shifty*

Excellent point.

But we should not be talking to each other about what we are not going to talk about, lest people wonder what we are not talking about and decide to investigate, thus leading back to posting.
