I know it seems early, but the games are not done!!!!
We received many revelations on 11/2/13, but those revelations created many more questions and one final clue Beware the horror within.
I guess I'll get this party started!!!
With all the revelations recently uncovered (and life in general getting in the way), it has taken me sometime to be able to organize my thoughts.
As I had initially suspected, PS was/is linked to LegendaryTruth. She is not Penny Shuster , but Paige Steerington. The daughter of Richard Steerington, who sent away for "her own good". Her father has gone missing and is presumed dead.
5 students went missing on a trip in 2010. Each one was a member of the Legions of Horror. Paige was invited to accompany these 5 students, but her father sent her to Salzburg. Interestingly, she would have evened out the genders. We still do not know what happened to these students. Dead? Sacrificed? Kidnapped and used in nefarious experiments?
If they were meant to be a ritual sacrifice, Paige's absence and "escape" leads me to believe that the ritual was incomplete.
This leads to several questions and thoughts:
What was the ritual for?
Who arranged the ritual?
Was a replacement for Paige sought out?
What could all of this foreshadow/point to?
Each question's possible answers bring on even more questions and thoughts.
I will try to breakdown my thoughts into sections.
Hopefully, this will prevent any TL:DR moments, as my thoughts are quite extensive.
Who, What, Why?:
Knowing that Fear was released in 2010, it seems very likely that the disappearance of these students is linked to his release.
It appears Ignatia Himmel and Gabriel Fell are in someway connected to the disappearance as well.
Were Himmel & Fell attempting to put the genie back in the bottle (Fear back in the Lantern) with a ritual sacrifice? Or were they attempting to give him more strength and power?
I feel the later is more likely. Here's why:
Besides the uneasy feelings the two always gave me, the release of Fear seemed calculated. It appeared to many that LegendaryTruth (Himmel/Fell) used the Collevctive to assemble the Portaemus. This led to Fear's release.
Fear "created" 5 icons to help him gain power. These 5 icons are apart of 5 Legions. Cerebin was the only Legion that did not have an Icon that was used by Fear.
I believe Fear needs a sacrifice from all 6 Legions to remain free, powerful, and in control. Therefore, the disappearance/ritual sacrifice required a member from each Legion.
I also feel that because only five students disappeared, the ritual was incomplete. Even though Dr. Steerington is presumed dead and was a Baccanoid, I feel his death(?) was separate from the ritual and therefore could not be included in the sacrifice.
More Whos and Whys:
Mr. Fell and Ms. Himmel seem to be the type who would make contingencies, and take precautions. The possibility that 1 of the necessary elements for a ritual may escape (or not attend) would most likely have been thought of.
This makes their sudden interest in Goth Wackee during the 2010 investigation seem more ominous now. While Goth has not confirmed a Legion, Ms. Himmel's extreme desire to find her raises the question: Could it be that our beloved Goth was sought out as a replacement for Paige?
The Horror Within:
So many possibilities...
The Mansion? Legions? Us?
I feel strongly that it is the horror within us. This thought is best described by a Tori Amos song:
"Devils and Gods now that's an idea
But if we believe that its They who decide
That's the ultimate detractor of crimes
'cause Devils and Gods
They are You and I
Devils and Gods
They are You and I
Devils and Gods
Safe and Inside"
Think of our intro on the LT page. Light and dark are emphasized. All of us contain a little of both. But to go even further...
Our Icons, all exhibit a sense of twisted obsession. The Director who desires to make movies so realistic that he kills. The Storyteller who must bring her stories to life. The Usher, so in love with his beloved theater, that he protects her even in death.
The Doctor who desires to free her patients from fear. Hers is the story where we see the obsession develop and take hold, and where we see the twisting. She wants to help people. She wants to free them from the pain of their fear. But slowly over time, she sees death as the only true release from fear.
The Horror lies Within us all and we should Beware.
Young Paige should take heed. She seems quite obsessive now. She wouldn't want her desires creating her own horror within.
