Greetings, my name is Ecclesia, and I have some rather dreadful news to share with you. It seems Louis Cifer (you know his as Mrloucifer) has bitten off more than he can chew this day. I have been piecing clues together from all the previous posts that Mrloucifer’s written in this forum (as well as several others on this site), and I've entrapped him and beat him at his own game of hunting. I now have the honor of being the first being to publicly announce to this forum that forces of darkness are reading everything you write, and we will use it against you.

It took many hours and several severe torture techniques, but dear Louis finally squealed like a gutted pig (ironic as I was just starting to gut him slowly when he finally caved) and he's given me his password to the forum. If it makes you feel any better, he put quite the resistance, I’ve tormented and tortured many men, women & children in my years in a variety or terrible and painful ways, but Louis stood up to the best of it, but as always your kind eventually folds and spills the beans. I've outsmarted Louis in every sense of the meaning, and now I shall take up the gauntlet with each and everyone of you to come and save him before he perishes either by my methodically slow and torturous hand, or should starvation take him or his will to live simply extinguish, whichever method loses its patience first.

I'll first give you all a day or two to respond and state your prayers for Mr. Cifer’s well being or your insults and declarations of ill-will towards myself as no doubt you'll be doing so, and to let you all discuss amongst yourselves a plan of action. In fact, Louis would love to hear all of what you have to say; you could say he’s a very “captive” audience right now and he’ll hanging on every word since I promised him I’d read all responses to the lad, I am a being of my word. Anyway, after the few days I will present clues as to where you can find him, and if you can locate his hiding place, you have just saved his life. I consider myself a reasonable and fair being. If you can locate and rescue him, you’re free to go...I will not hinder or harm you in anyway.

Playing with a man's life is such an intriguing game, and every game has a winner and a loser. In the event that I win, Louis is dead and this forum suffers as you've lost a very dedicated comrade. I have personally witnessed him slay several of my brethren and dark cousins recently (and who knows how many before) and those who would benefit from my gifts of power; his loss would be a gain to my fellow legions and myself. But if he is found and rescued and allowed to return to his life of hunting my kind, then I will concede my loss to you all and will eventually try to capture another forum member for another game. Do you have what it takes to play the game and win?

My rules to this game are simple,
#1. I will provide clues and questions that will lead to where Louis is locked away.
#2 Whoever participates can talk and discuss on this post what the clues and questions may mean and once a decision is reached, present me your answer (or best guess) and if your correct I shall continue with a new clue getting you closer to his whereabouts. If you fail, I will continue with more clues, but the wasted time only brings him closer to his death (which I’ll deliciously savor as much I did with the tortures he had suffered under my wicked claws).
#3. If and when you’ve correctly guessed his location, I will concede my loss and vacate the area immediately, long before you can come and claim him.
#4. If you happen to guess early and locate him, you will have to confront my minions and myself before you can help Louis.

That’s it humans, that’s all there is to it…let the games begin. For those who are impatient and need a starting point, here’s a question for your juices to churn on. In one of Mrloucifer’s previous posts, he mentioned someplace he had visited. Tell me, where was that location?

For Louis's sake, I wish you all good luck and I look forward our little game together.

Your move.

Specifically the St. Louis Gateway Arch I beleive.

If ya let him go now, I might not track you down and kill you . . . this month.

It goes against every principle of my education in psychology that I should even encourage or acknowledge your actions within this post. But I will implore you to reconsider what your doing. If indeed this is a kidnapping or serial killing type action and not the writing of a person who wants attention, I ask you serious think about your actions. You are threatening a man’s life, a man whom as far as I know hasn’t done anything wrong to you, and even if he has wronged you somehow, it’s not worth taking his life for it. I beg of you to let him go and seek counseling and therapy. You’re about to cross a line that you can’t go back from if you take this man’s life.

Of course if this is just a prank write up and your just looking for attention, you still should seek help as threatening lives is no laughing matter.

To ECCLESIA: Through private email and his repsonding to previous posts Ive placed in the past, I consider Louis a great friend, please dont hurt him!

To LOUIS: Please hang in there Louis, I have accepted the challenge to locate you, and I swear I'll do all I can to help find you!

To RON CALIBURN: I agree with your answer, the St. Louis Archway is what I found as well. Nice work Ron!

Excellent! Your all are off to a great start, but I am just getting warmed up! I would have written sooner, but time flies when your having fun slowly torturing a man to death.

But tardiness aside I've got promises to keep. My next question will require you history buffs to come forth. After Louis's trip to the St. Louis Gateway, he followed a tip off and sought out a small vampire den with a couple of vampire specialists. Of course he liquidated them all or he wouldnt be alive and under my torture today. Here is my question;

The origins of vampires on Earth predate written history, but what I want to know is what ancient civilization has been given credit to the first accounts of vampires? Believe me when I say I know the answer, because I was there when it was being recorded. I will even give extra credit (which equals a full meal and drink along with a pass from tortures for Louis that day) if you can tell me the correct title of the country during that time period.
You have until Tuesday afternoon for a response. Tick Tock, Tick Tock.

I dunno Ron, in doing some research I show the earliest documentation would have come from a land known as “Khem”; we'd now know it as Egypt. It all ties into the Egyptian obsession with the afterlife. The very mummification process (which is all well documented in the largest single body of surviving Egyptian literature called "The book of the dead" or Pert em Hru) was designed to preserve the body and care for the soul to keep from it from entering the afterlife as a way to cheat death. From there the family or dynasty would hire priests to build and maintain temples and "feed" the spirit with special food and drink to nourish the spirit and keep it from avoiding the second death.

According to the Pert em Hru, if the Spirit (or Ba) did not get the required nourishments that day for whatever reason, the spirit would use its body (or Ka) to venture out of its tomb at night in search of energy (I suspect that energy is what Lazlo referred to P.P.E.). This and other similarities to modern lore with vampires leads me to believe that Khem is our answer as Egypt did fall to Persian rule in the sixth century and I imagine after that age is when the writings Ron mentioned came out. But I could be wrong; does anyone else have a thought on this?

the chaldean vampire myths have No relation to being spirits of the dead. more like spirits of the damned who were servants of one of the other gods.

So what is the final answer people? Louis is looking thinner and more frail all the time and cant keep his tough exterior going for much longer, and I know just how much you hate the idea of a human sobbing and begging for his life, espeically as I plan wallow in his misery. You humans are such like horses that way, once your broken your even better to spur!

I don't get it. Just kill him and be done with it - I never understood why would a monster play with someone's life over the internet, unless they were faking it.

Prove it or lose it1

"Just kill him and be done with it?" Why B.H., havent you ever heard the old saying "You can kill a man only once, but you can break him many, many times". Its a very true statement.

Just kill him. I don't care. This is getting a tad boring!.


MORE BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD.

Oh, Im sorry Bubba, am I boring you? Very well then, Louis's blood is on your hands, sleep well knowing that. And for the record...I would have accepted either Khem or Ur, but it doesn't matter anymore, It amazes me how easily you humans tend to shoot your wounded.

NO! Dont let one man's ramblings get the better of you! There are plenty of others that worry about Louis! I beg of you to spare his life!

Ron, I can't help Louis like you can. While I dont know exactly where Louis is held, I can tell as a favor to a friend that I have reason to think Louis is locked up somewhere in Las Vegas. It occurred to me just now that Louis mentioned in a private message several weeks back that he wanted to go and look at the Eiffel tower replica located there after the post I wrote about France's Tower being a possible dimensional nexus. He asked for any extra info on the tower I could find, which wasn’t much but he said he'd be heading that way.

If I had the physical ability I would go myself and look, but all I can do unfortunalty is point you in the right direction. Please look for him Ron. I am hoping that this thing that's got Louis still enjoys the slow kill and therefore will give you a small window of opportunity to find him. Please help him Ron!

I wish there was more I could do to help on this one as well. But I can say in my psychiatry and criminology experience that this man most likely won’t kill Louis right away. I see signs in the way that he writes that he'll savor the moment as he's already got a captive audience. The fact that he gave up on this posting so quickly when interest was lost says a lot to that. As long as Louis can stay strong and even if he breaks, if he should plead and beg and act in any manner that shows he's got his full attention on his captor, Louis's will continued to be tormented, but it gives us time to locate and save him.

Ron, you stated on this site many times that you've got direct experience in dealing with these kind of issues, and while I dont condone killing in any way, I understand now in this new world of the paranormal I've entered there is such a thing as "Kill or be killed". With that I believe "liquidating" this fiend is the best course of action. I support your actions Ron, I only wish I could do more.

In the spirit of helping Louis, If you need help Mr. Caliburn I can be of assistance to you. Our beliefs and methods are obviously not the same, but a man's life may very well be at stake from an obviously delusional person.

I can private jet myself to Las Vegas in a matter of 2-3 hours and await your arrival. I got some contacts there who may be able to help narrow down our search or hopefully give a tipoff of where to go. I can even provide some kevlar protection and tranquilzer weaponry for us both as this man is obviously dangerous.

Let me know Ron and I'll start packing.

Be careful friends...

God speed...

Oh blast, it looks like I'm too late. Damned slow registration process!

And this was precisely the kind of challenge I don't back away from too...

Update: Ron and I are here and we are looking into possible leads now, but so far every route has met with a dead end (incluing the Eiffel tower replica angle). If anyone could throw us any new possible places to look it would be much appreciated.

Actually yes, I may have a new lead for you to pursue, I just sent the info to your private mails in case Mr. E is reading this (allthough I suppect he lost interest in the post alltogether.) Go get him guys! Louis needs you!

Yeah, Ron's a ok joe himself. he's got some bad habits and beliefs to be sure, but I trust him already and I'm glad to have him on our side.

Hey Tab Hound, your tip was a no go, but I think you were on the right trail. Ya got anything more that we can look at?

LUCKY BREAK! I THINK I GOT SOMETHING HERE! I'm sending it to you both now!

UPDATE: As of Early this Sunday Easter morning, Louis has been rescued by both Mr. Caliburn and I. He's in poor but stable condition. More details to come...

I threw the details here for you to consider

Easter in Vegas

Good job, gentlemen. I'm glad your friend is safe. You must be careful, though. Your actions may have played right into the hands of someone even worse than the villain who posted here. Your enemies plot as much against each other as they do against humanity.

Oh yes, I forgot to introduce myself. My name, well, my screen name, is The Traveler King. I've been doing what you do for a while myself, albeit with a much different methodology. I won't post much unless there's something vitally important for me to say.

Thank the stars! This is such a relief to hear! Im glad you all came back in one peice. Its a shame we couldnt get more information outta Ecclesia about why and what's his issues. The dogs you mentioned, were they hell hounds by chance? They sound suspiciously a lot like them to me. And just what kind of a cat do you own Ron? My cat never moves from his nap spot unless he's hungry, much less follow me anywhere.
