Am I the only one thinking that we/Andrew is being poisoned by mercury? I have to admit, the first thing I thought after reading the bit about You are poisoned.... was that the newspaper ink was laced with poison that could soak into the skin. My paranoia shines through yet again.

Is it possible that it's a rhetorical statement

Interestingly there is a subtle potential link in here to Kick, which, as I was following up a bit on that just now lead me to suddenly think that I was hearing birds singing in Morse code. I am not ready to pursue that side tunnel at this time, but it will keep me going down the main rabbit hole I was exploring for sure. I'm not sure the poisoning requires a physical poison--perhaps we are being "poisoned" by The Curator's words

Was she "poisoned" when she drank, or when she ate, those "magical" concoctions, which gave her certain temporary "powers"? Or, perchance, was she poisoned by dear sister as she sat in observation? these are just but two of a plethora of questions which have been surfaced of late due to the incredibly encrypted puzzle that has been set before us!

On Google, Adelise is the root word for Alice. Adele is the root word for Adelaide... Guillaume III's wife and daughter.

Gah. I appear to lack the resolution I need to see this idea bear fruit...

I was thinking about the Curator's last message. In the C&C he said that McCabe was Mercurial. Mercury was the Roman version of Hermes. who had tiny wings on his feet. There is a branch of Alchemy called Hermetic alchemy which is more into the symbolism, the transmutation of the soul. www.soul-guidance.com/houseofthesun/alcha01.htm
