This was a rather good first mailing. I love when there's a good variety of items.

That does it... I will avoid this topic and order the Experience myself.

There are some tangibles.
It's an impressive mailing. I haven't digested it all yet, but it's substantial.

Mine is sitting in my mailbox, waiting for me to get home. It's going to be an agonizing 4 more hours.

Yes, I love when they have tangibles. I'm not sure if I got everything, or if I still require something to come in the next mailing. The ritual refers to the circle diagram. I'm assuming that nobody received that in this mailing? What would be amusing is if the circle diagram never arrives, and therefore we cannot ever complete the ritual, and so therefore the seal breaks down over time whether we want it to or not. And of course, since we can't contact the sisters ...  |

I think we DO have that already. In a few places. As a person in academia, I thought one piece was pretty funny.
For those waiting to open (or order), when you open it, don't freak out if you stuff falls out and you think something broke. You're probably fine haha.

I've only been able to give everything a quick read through, so I haven't been able to study or contemplate much yet. I'm definitely satisfied with the contents, and some of what this mailing leads me to expect in the next. Regarding the discussion above:
I'm not convinced we have the circle, or at least not the complete information for it, assuming you were referencing the stamp and the first card we received. The text mentions black and red lines, and we don't have that. Also mentions multiple other circles.
That said, I will be doing a deeper dive into things tomorrow, so my thoughts may change. |

The stamp wasn't multi-coloured, and the postcard was an extra and shouldn't be considered part of the narrative. I have to say, I was pretty impressed with the manner in which the ritual works. The idea of shaving a demon down bit by bit and storing it across a myriad of jars is brilliant. |

And now that I've had some time to research a bit and think about more, there's a lot here that ties nicely together. Though, there are a few things that still intrigue me:
The Daughters' activities seemed to be in Worms and Heidelberg. The clay tablet that we have a translation of, as best I can tell, would have been found in Jerusalem. Were things relocated after their job was done?
Any insight as to where the 2015 excavation would have been? I can't help but think that the various words on the back of the article have some relevance to something:
Given that the clusters of words are related, I'm wondering if the incantation we are supposed to be getting a translation of might have some potential errors in the translation where this person was not sure what word to choose?
And regarding the forthcoming artifact:
I agree, I really like the idea of slowly but surely shaving down the demon's power and separating it. Given that we are getting a jar, theoretically, I'm immensely curious about if we will be able to open the jar itself. The text suggests there is the prison (jar) and a cage for the prison (presumably to keep anyone from opening it), so I expect being able to open the cage. But if we can open the jar, we know what should be in the jar, and that could be very interesting to see. Not that I would ever open the jar, because of the great risk to the world, mind you.

The first mailing is amazing. Theres so much detail put in everything (even the candles that have been lit, there seem to be three or four different handwritings) . Love seeing my spouse react to it. When opening: Spouse: "Pff, this isn't real- someone is playing a joke on me" Spouse: "This is some kind of viral commercial thing" Me: "Weird, would they hand write all that stuff for so many people?" After googling: Spouse: "...Cant find anything" After reading the contents: Spouse: "I guess if this is all I need to do, I might as well do it, just in case it is real?" Me: "Well, still if do decide youre going to perform the ritual- please check beforehand if the chalk can be rubbed off the floor easily"
Spouse : "Yea I'll buy some chalk later"
Me: "Huh, whats wrong with that piece of chalk?"
Spouse: "Thats the chalk they provided for the ritual, if it is real, its probably powerful, I dont want to use that yet!"
Me: "Oh right, of course." |

I've seen a lot of movies involving Satanism and devil worship , so I know exactly what to do with these items!  |

From the sounds of it, I'm expecting: that there will be a stoppered bottle with a wax (maybe even lead) seal. The bottle will be inside of a cage with a lock. There were references to a key, which I assume goes with the cage lock.
If it's easy enough to open the lock, remove the bottle from the cage and unstopper the bottle, I'll be sorely tempted to see if there's a piece of skin inside. If the bottle has a seal though, I'm loathe to break it and ruin the aesthetic. |

Latex perhaps, but not skin! |
