MESSAGES FROM RACHEL

As we predicted yesterday two new messages have been found on both of Rachel’s blog pages. The first is a binary code found on her public site posted with today’s date and the second is from her secret blog page (Stop Hanso) and is a short octal (base 8) code. (Note: Click on the titles below to be directed to that page.)

Rachel Blake’s Public Blog



The new post found at RachelBlake.com. The long binary string converts to the following hex string:
52202D2D2049207265737065637420796F757220636

The hex string then converts (hex to Ascii) to this message: "R -- I respect your caution. Suppose it's warranted, after all you've come through. I can't remember it exactly, but I think when we were in the stairwell in Paris, you muted the mic as I said, "Because he wanted me to help you, and I can't question a man who would launch the Mental Health Appeal... to save a loved one." Say what you will about him now, his heart was once in the right place."

It seems that it was not the content of the message about the Mental Health Appeal but the message itself instead. After muting the microphone only Malik and Rachel really knew what he had said.

So Mittelwerk launched the Mental Health Appeal to save a loved one? Or, is he discussing someone else? In either case the MHA was obviously created for the benevolence of humanity. But why then is the Hanso Foundation being touted as the antagonist in the Experience? Perhaps, we’ll need more information before we can really grasp the complexities of roles. I think I’ll stick around a while to see what transpires.

We presume that this message is from Malik to Rachel and it seems to be enough to convince her that he truly is Malik because later she posted the following message to her secret blog.

Rachel Blake’s Secret Blog


The code 111151131047156103155116056 was found today on Rachel’s Stop Hanso site under a post dated with today’s date. Using an octal (base 8) decoder we find the message "IiY'nCmN" which unscrambles to read, "I'm in NYC."

Rachel is confident enough in the information supplied by Malik to tell him her location. But why New York City and how long has she been there? Has she been in the U.S. since her escape from Sri-Lanka? If so why did it take her so long to get the message out? And will everything truly shift to Norway now?
