### Description

You can leave now, reader, over-severe,go, where you please: I write for the gate; my page, now, runs wild with timeless verse, strikes the cymbals, with a dancing-girl’s hand.

Here’s the one you read, and you demand, Ω, who is known throughout the land for these witty little books of epigrams: to whom, wise reader, you keep giving, while he still feels, among the living, what few poets merit in their graves.

Let the numbers be numbers! Let us lead the blind to the gate!

## Details

Within the image, there are 3 distinct images, one shown in one picture and the other two chopped up. The first image is a circuit diagram. It connects to the Master Picture, but other than that its use is not known. The second image, picture 8, is a 27x27 coordinate matrix, with the X axis being capital letters A-Z and "-", while the Y axis is numbers 1-27. The third image shows an equation, with the 6 different video logs and variables supposed to be multiplied with corresponding numbers, and then all added together along with the number 13.

∮ and ∝ from *Θ* ≺ *Υ*, are 37269 and 22000, respectively. The smaller £ is the ASCII value of the pound sign, which 163. The value of *The Voice of Σ* is 1260, since that is the number mentioned in video.

The value of *IANVS* is 21818DCLII, the value from the description. However, since it contains letters these must be transformed using the dragon matrix.

This is done by taking the position of the letter in the word as the Y axis coordinate, and the letter itself as the X. So, D corresponds to coordinate 6D, C to 7C, L to 8L etc. Doing this we get 2181863073. The value of the large pound sign from *The Page of £* is **hiqe**, which again must be transformed using the same method as we did with *IANVS* before. Doing this we get 9513.

Taking all the six values and multiplying them with their respective numbers, and then adding 13, we get 74113739926, an 11 digit number.

The arrow in the stitched-together picture now leads our attention to picture 4, which has 11 squares and triangles, and so this tells us that the numbers correspond to the symbols. 11 digits is also the length of a Youtube video ID - example: \_5ETRj0lt4w - and so shows that what we are looking for is a Youtube link. A Youtube video ID is made up of dashes, numbers and lower/uppercase letters.

This tells us that a triangle with the tip pointing upwards is uppercase, and one with the tip pointing downwards is lowercase. The squares then must represent either numbers or dashes. Therefore the video ID must be 7Xx13xx9x2x, where x represents a letter of corresponding case, and the numbers are either numbers or dashes. To figure out the letters however, we must use the dragon matrix. This is done by going through the rows in the Matrix by the position of the numbers in 74113739926, and checking for the same number in the row. If the number is below a letter We start with 7. Since 7 is a square, which can be either a number or a dash, we only look below the dash in the first row. The number below it is 3, so we know the first number is not a dash but a number, 7. Next we take 4, which is an upper-pointing triangle, and hence an uppercase letter. The letters with 4s under them are K, N, O, S and W. Since there are 5 of them, we will have to try them all. Continuing with the rest, there are a total of 120 links possible.

**The below is the solution to the dragon cipher.**

Trying them all, the correct one is - 7Oq13cl9n-o - , leading to *The Voice of Ξ*.

## Book XI:16

The first paragraph in the video description is from "Martial - Epigrams" by A. S. Kline, a bundle of translated Roman poems written by Marcus Valerius Martialis or "Martial" in English. His best known works are 12 books of *epigrams*. The passage seen in the first paragraph of the *Door & Locks* description is from book 11:

—————

You can leave now, Reader, over-severe,

go, where you please: I write for the city;

my page, now, runs wild with Priapic verse,

strikes the cymbals, with a dancing-girl’s hand.

O, how you’ll beat your cloak in rigid vein,

though you’re weightier than Curius, Fabricius!

You too, that read naughty jokes in my little book,

you’ll be wet, girl, though you’re from moral Padua.

Lucretia would have blushed, and shut my volume,

while Brutus was there; but when he left: she’d have read.

—————

Interestingly, the passage is from book 11, or XI, similarly to Ovid's Elegy XI from which a passage is used as the title of the eponymously-named *Perfer et Obdura* video. Ovid's Elegy XI is also a romantic piece of work, similarly to Martial's erotic epigram seen in book XI epigram 16.

XI has also been used in the *IANVS* video in the tag "11 is near". Considering *IANVS* comes before *The Voice of Ξ*, we can assume Xi is a play on the roman numeral XI. Similarly to *IANVS*, the *Door & Locks* preceeds *The Voice of Ξ*. Proposing the two are in some way connected to Ξ.

## BookI:1

The second paragraph in the video description is from book 1 epigram 1 of Martial's 12 books of epigrams:

—————

Here’s the one you read, and you demand,

Martial, who is known throughout the land

for these witty little books of epigrams:

to whom, wise reader, you keep giving,

while he still feels, among the living,

what few poets merit in their graves.

—————

The passages seen in the *Door & Locks* also alter some of the words shown in the epigrams. Specifically the words:

- city (becomes gate)

- Priapic (becomes timeless)

- Martial (becomes omega)

The alteration of the word "priapic" to timeless could coincide with the timecode frame and clock with VFD circuit diagram seen in the video frames.

## The Circuit

The picture of the circuit from *Door & Locks* can be isolated by lowering the red levels in a program like GIMP. This circuit is tied to a clock system. The picture of the circuit comes from http://danyk.cz/+avr\_vfd.html.

The source also uses an ATMega8 microcontroller. The pinout shown in the source image was likely isolated as the pinout is uses a red technical drawing colour. The pinout was then removed from the source circuit diagram and repositioned over to the DCF-77 timecode frame.

> The program of the DCF-77 VFD clock is available for download below in the HEX file (to be uploaded directly into the microcontroller) or as source code in assembler for possible modifications. The printscreen below shows the microcontroller configuration bits setting in both AVRISP and PonyProg. The MCU is clocked by a 4MHz crystal. The VFD clock has Operating hours counter. To avoid loss of data (24bit) while disconnected from both mains and battery, the data are stored in EEPROM and updated 8x per hour. To avoid early EEPROM wear (guaranteed lifetime of each Byte is 100 000 writes) wear levelling is used. The lowest byte storage is rotated between 96 different bytes in EEPROM. For higher two bytes it is not needed because the update only occurs on low byte overflow, which is 256x less often. 100 000 writes of a particular byte won't therefore occur before 137 years of continuous operation! EEPROM also holds brightness setting, night dimming setting, automatic summer / winter time and default display mode, so that it is preserved even with no power.” - http://danyk.cz/avr\_vfd.html.

## Theories

Xi’s message from *The Voice of Ξ* can be interpreted as a form of rebus puzzle: For those reaching Ξ the first time, Ξ is a guide leading people to the Omega Gate. Getting to the gate reveals a conundrum - why would Ξ lead to the Omega Gate and not the Ξ gate? For that matter, why does Voice of Σ act as a key to the Door but doesn't lead to a Σ gate? Within these questions lay the possibility that Ξ’s message has multiple meanings. One being the *Door* can lead to many things and/or that the invitation can be manipulated to get new gateway links.
