Cristina: Warning. This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.

Jack: Going live in 5, 4.

Cristina: What does live mean?

Jack: Welcome to the Rambling Podcast. I am your host, Jack.

Cristina: And I am your host, Christina.

Jack: And this is the show where we ground humanity's most absurd and baffling ideas. And I'm still baffling, baffled about the same. Baffling ideas relative. Infinitely digging into a hole that I don't know at this point if it's more about Hermes or more about Jesus or what the h***. There's some. Something else we should be pointing no, there's something we should be pointing at that we don't know what it is that they're kind of all dancing around and getting us closer to. That's ultimately what's happening here. We're getting closer to something like the.

Cristina: First necromancer or something. Something else.

Jack: I don't know if knowing who the first necromancer is matters necessarily. Or maybe it does. You don't know what information matters because we don't know what we're looking for.

Cristina: No.

Jack: Like, are we looking for something in the past? Are we looking for something in the present? And we're looking for a plan, a purpose, a goal, a person?

Cristina: There's nothing to find in the present. Or is there? I don't think there's any. There doesn't seem to be anything.

Jack: Antonio Draco was quite recent. That was just the 1700s. That ain't that crazy.

Cristina: That's kind of old. 1700. That's the most recent.

Jack: The battle that took place directly over the. Where the palace of Alcaraz was in the Persian Gulf oasis. That was in the 80s.

Cristina: Oh, really?

Jack: The tanker war.

Cristina: Okay, that's not that far.

Jack: It's not that far.

Cristina: What does it mean?

Jack: What does it mean? Right?

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And whatever's happening with Israel and Palestine, I think that's related, man. I think that's related because you got to think about it. I was giving this real thought. Maybe we talked about this on the show, but before, I don't even know. My thought about this was we think just look at the order of events, right? Israel just attacking and wrecking these people in here. Totally genocide level. Israel's a bad guy for sure, but maybe not. Let's think about this, right? Israel's just, quote, murdering these people or whatever is happening there. We don't have eyes on it. We don't know what's happening, okay? The other countries know about it and do nothing and they tell us, oh, yo, yeah, your opinions are valid. And blah, blah, blah. And then they do nothing. It's because either what they're. What's actually happening, they're not telling us. And these, our leaders know too, what's really going on. What's really going on. And they're like, no, believe what you got to believe. I don't. Maybe. Maybe it's not even a bad thing that they're doing. Maybe there's. Because this is my other thought. We're looking at Israel, which most likely is somehow connected to the Elysians. If we're talking about this right. And we're looking at the Egyptians, which are the other side. The Egyptians are the other wall. They're the only other exit point for not doing anything. And they're literal. Thing is you guys aren't doing anything wrong. But why now? Borders is what they said. These people can get away through water if they f****** want. Whatever.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: I mean, who knows if they make it. I don't even know. Or if the Wabotters are patrolled, whatever the case might be. But think about the logic here. Maybe they're holding something in there.

Cristina: What?

Jack: That's.

Cristina: What.

Jack: Maybe it's a prison cell to hold something in there. Maybe there's. That's the actual focal point to something.

Cristina: To something. To something trying to keep in there.

Jack: To something that they're trying to keep in there.

Cristina: That's disturbing. I guess. I don't know.

Jack: The other thing is that I was thinking about. This is before we get just random thoughts I've had. But this next one isn't random thought I've had as much as a. Interesting note I read unrelated to anything we're talking about, but it was in a text, an Islamic text mentioning the Mecca and how it was built to. This is. Now, this isn't in the Quran. This is part of like kind of lost Islamic folklore.

Cristina: Oh.

Jack: Specifically.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: That references it as though it was built to trap an evil spirit. The thing that the Islamics.

Cristina: You think they're fighting an evil spirit?

Jack: I don't know.

Cristina: Wait, they're worshiping the evil spirit that they're fighting.

Jack: They. I don't think people know if. If this was the actual purpose for. And it worked. And there's an evil spirit in and me. I don't even know what the Mecca really is. I'm sure people are allowed in there to confirm there's not a prison cell with an evil spirit.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: But I don't. I don't actually have any idea, to be honest. But this is just a random thought I was having. That I read that line and look into it or anything. It just essentially made it sound like it was made to trap an evil spirit. Okay, this is it pulled up right here. This does not look like a prison cell to me. There are three pillars that hold it it up.

Cristina: But can people go in there?

Jack: I guess so. Yeah. Even if they can't, like, it's not a.

Cristina: Is that a what?

Jack: It's not a prison. Oh, I know what the Mecca is now that I think about it. Is this where Muhammad took into the.

Cristina: Sky what I think it is?

Jack: This is where Muhammad went into the sky.

Cristina: Through that?

Jack: No, on this spot or when he went to heaven? Or was it the floating rock? One or the other one.

Cristina: I think you need to do some more research on this. Yeah, whatever.

Jack: Yeah. It has nothing to with anything. Anyways. None of this is the point. None of this matters.

Cristina: It could be in the future. Who knows?

Jack: Yeah, yeah. I don't know. I have no clue. But anyways, today's episode has nothing to do with that. That was just an interesting fact of life. I. I suppose. But today's episode is more of an extension of trying to dive deeper into Hermes now that we've established one guy factually, one guy throughout a bunch of time, which means immortality, as well as him knowing or at least living an absurd amount of time while being human and him knowing Yahweh, which is the first mention of anybody we have crossing with Yahweh. So now we know to, you know, eventually look into that time based connection. But I found some other things that I think we should discuss instead. Relative to this individual who seems to be the one human we know who can stretch a crap ton of time other than Jesus Christ though he knows.

Cristina: A lot about science.

Jack: And I guess also on St Nicholas and St Patrick all both lived in absorbently long amount of time. And Merlin was only murdered because it's a fairy's weapon.

Cristina: Did it as far. Yeah, yeah.

Jack: If he's dead.

Cristina: He said if he's dead because that's the last we heard of him.

Jack: Yeah. So okay. That summarizes kind of relative points, I suppose. And so I had a question coming in here and I'm like, so how did he come up with the stone? Or where do you get it? You know what? Like where did this originate from and how do we get there?

Cristina: Okay. Huh?

Jack: How would we go about doing that?

Cristina: How would you do that? Yeah. You found the way.

Jack: How it's complicated, right? Because we have to think about like what steps would a normal person approach how do we. What question would I ask to find the normal step a person would approach? Like, what the h***? Right?

Cristina: Like how. Yeah, because, like, do you know about the first stones, I guess to make. Are the four stones Adam and Eve, or the ones that was before them, that came from the dead fairies? Those are the. I think.

Jack: I think that one stone is the first one that at least narratively speaking, what we know, what we've uncovered. A fairy stone is the first one. I guess the shadow stone is what we call it. The shadow stone is the first one. Then the stone of Adam, the stone of Eve. I suspected another stone to make Jesus, but we don't actually know that to be a fact. That's a theoretical stone. So outside of those three stones, we also have Merlin's stone, Patrick's stone, and Nicholas's stone. But those three stones seem to either be unpure or weaker versions as compared to these other way, more OP stones we're talking about.

Cristina: Yes, but we're going back in time. Like, how did they come up with.

Jack: Adam and Eve and.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: I don't know. I don't know. Because that's Eloi. Who came up with that. That's not even connected. That's another problem. Right. That creates a huge hole. You're totally right. How did they come up with making these stones? Because essentially they're following. This is another reason. This is where this rabbit hole just kind of spirals in the million places. Right. Eloi. My theory is Eloi used Yaldabaoth's method to create the atom stone and the Eve stone, both being better than the last through the kind of rinse and repeat process that takes a long time to make a thing reproduce and then kill it. He was working with szn.

Cristina: This is a new incision.

Jack: Is the son of Yaldabel.

Cristina: Oh, that. But like, how much does he really know?

Jack: I mean, I guess, but this is my theory. And follow me on this. I don't think it worked. I think even us, we are the imperfect still in progress. Jesus was still the working towards something. He was closer than we are.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Because we're not descendants of Jesus.

Cristina: Yeah. And we don't know if there's anything after.

Jack: Exactly. And whatever Jesus is by comparison to us is op. And Jesus was born. It seems with everything a necromancer is.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: I think that's the goal. A born necromancer. Interesting.

Cristina: Did he make more of himself, though?

Jack: Jesus?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: No.

Cristina: If he had children, what would his children be? Says like the stones made us. We reproduce. And make more us? Wouldn't there be Jesus like creatures out there too?

Jack: If Jesus reproduced, If he did, and anyone he reproduces with would reduce what he is. There could only be one.

Cristina: Huh?

Jack: He would need another him, another perfect version. So they could never recreate. It would only be Jesus.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: You could only have the one. Interesting. I didn't think about that. Even genetically. There could only be the one.

Cristina: I guess maybe that's why they only made one. Because why would you just make one? That's kind of weird. But we were a test and they didn't just make one. There's billions of us.

Jack: I'm sure we weren't necessarily the finished product either.

Cristina: No. I mean, no.

Jack: Maybe the goal was Jesus.

Cristina: Us to make him.

Jack: Yeah, the goal was to make Jesus. Which then brings up the next thing. If the entire process required mass death, then question one, is there something akin to a mass extinction event taking place around the time that Jesus was born? And two, is the, I guess the use of the possession of the stone. The use of the stone is, are they? I don't even know what my question is because, oh man, it's so complicated. I don't understand the ultimate point. But anyways, anyways, who cares about any of this? Chasing this point, okay? I need to track where this man began. The path of finding out where the stone came from. Like, how do you do it? Where'd it come from? So start looking through text. Any mention, make a note of any possible. And I come across a couple of interesting mentions. And so it goes as follows. Christianity would have the most information because they're the people trying to correct everything. That's the first place. It's like a Wikipedia of sorts. You begin there, but you can assume it's wrong in a lot of places. So you begin and you're like, what do you gotta say about this?

Cristina: Christianity, Christianity. Okay.

Jack: Through biblical texts, we landed at Enoch and we proved Enoch is Hermes.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Great. It took us that far outside of the Bible itself, but through other Christianity and Catholicism adjacent texts, we get an interesting line which does in fact discuss the philosopher's stone.

Cristina: Okay, what's that?

Jack: Their take on the events.

Cristina: Is it again, Christianity. Christianity, but outside the Bible?

Jack: Outside the Bible, yes.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Enoch was given the stone by angels. If we translate these words, fairies. Fairies, gave.

Cristina: That doesn't make sense. That doesn't make sense. What does that mean? You know, you don't think it's shadow realm people. Maybe by they mean shadow people. That's more believable that shadow people. If the none of anything. We haven't. Like, we haven't understood anything.

Jack: Well, no, the other thing is that I think two or three episodes ago, we stumbled upon the possibility that the fairy realm is also just another layer and not base reality.

Cristina: Oh, my gosh. I don't know what's happening.

Jack: I don't know what's happening either. But it's. It would be the logical conclusion that if it's possible to make a perfect simulation, we ourselves are within one, because it's the most likely. There's only one base reality.

Cristina: So they're also just testing on us.

Jack: Yeah, every. It's a loop. An infinite loop. It looks like.

Cristina: Yes, as above.

Jack: So below what? Which is a line. We're gonna say again later.

Cristina: Hermes. Own line.

Jack: Okay, now, at least it was a good starting point, but I don't trust the Christians because this came straight through edits from Catholicism, which tells me this only exists because you're trying to lie about something.

Jack: This only exists because you're trying to lie about something. That's just where I begin with Christianity right now. You only exist to cover up lies. So let's find out if you mentioned it. Yeah, it was a lie to cover something up. Simple.

Cristina: So you gotta find the original story.

Jack: Because he mentioned it. He mentioned it.

Cristina: That's good enough.

Jack: Christianity mentioned it. So you're trying to hide something. Yes, or you wouldn't have said s*** because it wouldn't have concerned you at the end. So let's find out the same take. I look a little harder going through Christianity, but kind of reaching outside of the Scriptures, outside of the Bible, outside of any relative. But other people who claim to have been around and seen a lot of the same things who aren't necessarily identifying as a version of Christianity, but rather a different Abrahamic religion. Celtics right up there with our friend Mananan. And these individuals, right? They actually happen to also have an interesting mention about a man named Enoch. Interesting, interesting. And what do they say? Because this definitely sheds a little more light.

Cristina: What do they say?

Jack: They believe that Enoch was given the instructions by angels on how to develop the stone. Or it's unclear that he developed the stone along side of them, I guess. Interesting.

Cristina: Either way.

Jack: Now we get somewhere where it's more of. They're messing with a program and they're trying to do something in the program, and they're getting the AI in the program to help them.

Cristina: Interesting, Interesting.

Jack: That looks more like today reality. A little closer, a little closer.

Cristina: These are just people outside the program that are just essentially right yeah.

Jack: Or in theory.

Cristina: Yes. It makes sense. It's weird. Yes. Because why would every fairy be under. Or listening to. What's her name?

Jack: To Mab.

Cristina: Yes, Mab.

Jack: Yeah. It might just be the Internet. We might. It might just be the Internet. There's a bunch of parts.

Cristina: She's just a late scientist and she has people working for her. But not everyone in that world is a scientist working for her. She could be the sea people of that place or whatever.

Jack: Not even. She could just be a developer.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: This could be Facebook and there's other websites, and she's just one of many working on. On the Facebook known as reality.

Cristina: Yes. And people go in and they do their own thing. Okay. Yeah.

Jack: Makes perfect sense. Right. A little better framed. And that made a lot of sense. But I started following that to try to confirm if I could. If, you know, if that's corroborated by other sources.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: And instead what I get is an older take on this same thing. This sounded right enough that you wouldn't question it. But if you find out that. Let's think about the line I'm about to draw you. The Christians who come essentially from the Israeli kind of region, moving towards Italy, that's Christianity. If you draw a line from Israel towards Italy, that's Christianity happening right there.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And the Celtic is. If you were to draw a line from Italy to Ireland. Right.

Cristina: Okay. Sort of picturing it.

Jack: Okay. Islam would be you dragging that line then back into the Middle east again from where it came out to Iran and Afghanistan and Arabia and that kind of Middle Eastern.

Cristina: Very Middle Eastern.

Jack: Yeah. So it's a triangle, by the way. A weird, lopsided triangle of sorts.

Cristina: Yeah, but of religions.

Jack: Yeah. We go back kind of to where we began. The further back we go, we left and came back going backwards through time, and we land at Islam. But then I follow Islam and it devolves back into Zoroastrianism.

Cristina: Oh, okay.

Jack: Right. Okay. So I'm on the right track. Right. Just following the same sentences and same kind of ideas, devolving, changing little by little. But if you know what you're looking for, you can compare them. Even if the first and the last are nothing alike, the road is just a bunch of similar kind of more or less. So you make it all the way into Zoroastrianism, and then you hit the wall. But it's interesting enough where the wall ended, because I would argue that then this answers more clearly, because Zoroastrians believe that Enoch, specifically angels, came down to learn how Enoch created something like The Philosopher's Stone.

Cristina: What? How? And how. But how. But how did he do it?

Jack: But how did he do it?

Cristina: How does he. Then it feels like he has to relate to the other guy who made the first one in the Shadow Realm, because how could he have done it without him? How could he have just done it separately? Is it possible? Is it possible? Could that happen? I don't know. I mean, maybe.

Jack: Well, no. We can draw a line that makes sense because we know there's enough degrees.

Cristina: There's.

Jack: There's. They're close enough that there's like four degrees of separation before we get to like the source, you know?

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: If we started Hermes, who we know connected with both Jehovah and Yahweh. Yahweh, the son of Eloi, who we know factually made the thing and hung out with the son of Yaldabaoth who made the first one. It's like the information is there. It made it down the pipeline.

Cristina: It's not that crazy, but through time. It's kind of crazy, but like.

Jack: Yeah, but we still have pipe systems made by these people and we're pretending they don't exist.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Like, is that still through time?

Cristina: He did it. He did it. Okay.

Jack: I'm not sure if he did it, but that's the argument that happens the.

Cristina: Farthest back is that he made it. They were interested in that to the.

Jack: Point that that means he discovered how to traverse the Shadow Realm and Elfame and make a stone that bends all of them through one another easily and effortlessly.

Cristina: It makes sense because he's a necromancer. And if you know what a necromancer like, it's just what a necromancer is meant to do in the end of the day.

Jack: In modern day, we consider necromancers to be so associated with death almost specifically. And so little of these other things they're also identify with like just being able to like, we're so, so evil and this and that. Every description I've seen of a necromancer allows them to just enter heaven. What the f*** is that?

Cristina: Enter any realm pretty much.

Jack: They can just phase out. That's fire, dude.

Cristina: Just obsessed with the death part.

Jack: But like, yeah, we're weirdly fascinated by that realm.

Cristina: Way more realms that they can communicate with.

Jack: All of them. All of the above.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Is basically. They have no restriction. They're human gods.

Cristina: Mm. That's what they are. Oh my gosh.

Jack: Human gods. I guess the human gods. Except they're not a research team. It's not like.

Cristina: Yeah, it's not like the other Sun.

Jack: God's research team or whatever, you know. But it is interesting.

Cristina: Yes. And they're just people. Or they were people. They were once people.

Jack: They were once people that through knowledge alone stopped being people.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: D***, bro. Crazy hardcore.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: The obsession you must have with knowledge. And the other problem is that they are depicted as very dark because there is. They. Aesthetically, we're trying to cover themselves. And a lot of the things they used, well, they used anything and everything, which means they were often seen with normal things which you wouldn't acknowledge and ab. Normal things which you would. Like skulls and s***.

Cristina: Well, I don't know if I'm getting the thinking of this right, but weren't they in blue, though? Not black blue for some reason, Like Santa and Patrick were in blue and then like through the story changed to red and green. But I feel like, yeah, they were.

Jack: In neutral, darker colors.

Cristina: Yeah. Okay.

Jack: They were always in neutral, darker colors. Yes.

Cristina: Yeah. It wasn't straight up black, though, but.

Jack: It was always robes. It was always drapey robes and. But I think the only one who was masking and hiding in this way was Hermes in particular. He's the master necromancer, the teacher of necromancy.

Cristina: He has to be, though. He had.

Jack: Yeah. So he's hiding who he is. Dimensions of him are so scarce, the outside of a few pockets. People are even unclear as to whether he was real. There's a bunch of people who, like, it's. He's believed to have been a real person, but there's also like a bunch of groups of people, scholars and like, d***, man, this doesn't check out. It's like that level of unclear. He made sure of that. Okay, yeah, the level of unclear. He made sure he wasn't seen. So we don't know what he necessarily looked like because his face was always covered, dark colors, maybe even makeup on all the time, so that there was no distinctive realistic features. So that if he just wanted to be a person, he goes. Nobody sees him take it off. And you just don't know who the f*** this guy is. Because as Hermes, he had to be this thing so that he could detach himself. Because think about how legendary the thing is that everybody everywhere has known and heard and talked about him. Created masterpiece philosophic works, magic, alchemy, philosophy. And the philosophy just doesn't miss either. Like solid universal philosophy. Get the f*** out of here.

Cristina: Talking about reality like it makes sense. It makes sense. Sense from what he wrote, his laws Just. I don't. I don't get it. It's crazy. I believe it, though.

Jack: It falls in line with what he's being accredited with. Yeah. Like he truly. He's trying to tell you. No, it's easy to just bend it all.

Cristina: Like, he truly got it. He wasn't just.

Jack: He wasn't preaching it and not practicing it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: He was genuinely like, no, you could just bend reality with your mind. You're like, I know, but it's like meditation. Woo. Woo. And then he waves.

Cristina: Yeah, exactly. And he's saying it like it is. Or we're taking it like it is.

Jack: We're taking it. But it's like we. He says that and we take it like he is. And then he waves his hand and then everything doctor Strange is around us and it's like, oh, s***. No, he's the real deal.

Cristina: He is. Whoa.

Jack: But then what's interesting is that means that the possibility that this is real is here, but that it is so absurdly rare. Like truly, astoundingly like everything else seems like technology. This guy seems like he's reached beyond that even to the people who are claiming it's all technology. You're like, but that. That guy.

Cristina: But that guy.

Jack: But that guy. And it's like, d***, bro. But also, that's just super crazy. Over the top op, because at that level, it is kind of like the fairies, right? It's just exaggerated technology.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: That looks like magic from how advanced it is. And even to us, we've become familiar with so much elation technology and so many things from the Egyptians and the Mayans and the these and the that and experiments they've run, that little by little it looks less like magic to us as we become more clear with the possibilities. And still a necromancer looks like magic. D***. D***.

Cristina: They're coders. They're coders. They're more than just a beyond.

Jack: They're out there. It's something that we do not comprehend just yet. But the fact that digging keeps taking us farther means I am confident there's a way to at least comprehend something.

Jack: One of them came back and said something. And somebody wrote it down.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Simple. That's what we do.

Cristina: That's how we found that first part of his thing. And before we found out, he did the seal.

Jack: Yeah, exactly. Some, like Aristotle just wrote some crap. Yeah, that's it. He just wrote about the guy by chance. Just public records we ignore every day.

Cristina: Yeah, but it was there.

Jack: And that. Exactly. There must be a way. There's Always a way. Now, looking at other things, in the Book of Enoch, it says Enoch might be the first to have the capability to create or understand something as profound as the philosopher's son. Just confirming says it.

Cristina: Okay. It just talks about the philosopher's stone. Does it say what it thinks it's the. What the philosopher soul is like. Does it match up to what we think?

Jack: None of that matters.

Cristina: None of that matters?

Jack: No. Because I just scrolled to the juicy part.

Cristina: Oh, okay.

Jack: I'll have to show you an image.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And I need you to just look at that image.

Cristina: None of that matters, though.

Jack: None of that matters. This is what matters. What are you looking at?

Cristina: Words and a mountain, I think, or some type of rock. Is it an image of a rock?

Jack: Right. It's an image of a rock in the woods.

Cristina: I don't know the words. Am I supposed to know what it is?

Jack: No, no, no, no, no. I'm just having you describe what you're looking at.

Cristina: Okay. Is something happening to rock? Is it on fire? There's something shooting out of it on the top or something.

Jack: Interesting little detail right there, right?

Cristina: Yeah. Is that important?

Jack: Maybe. Who knows?

Cristina: Is there anything else happening in the image that I'm not noticing?

Jack: This is a drawing and this is a very old drawing. It was done in the 1800s. Not the 1800s. This was done in the 800s. My bad. Reiteratively copied over and over to have a fresher version of it. But this is the image. The image you're looking at is called the Emerald Tablet. A man saw it. He then copied everything he saw. He drew what it looks like. This is essentially the he. So how do I put it? Yeah. So this man is unnamed, has a. Sees rock, comes in contact with the rock, studies it, then he goes and gets an artist, comes back, the artist copies the rock. This is the rock's shape. This is the. From his point of view. He chose this angle on the rock because of the text on it.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Is called the Emerald Tablet. The Emerald Tablet has an interesting feature to it. It's gold looking, except where light touches it directly. So anytime you see a glare of light and anywhere you look at shade. So the crevices, the crevices of the stone and the glares of the stone are green like the.

Cristina: Like emerald, like an emerald. Okay.

Jack: But the stone itself is gold.

Cristina: That's strange.

Jack: Very strange. Allow me to tell you about the Emeril Tablet. A very important piece of information. First, let me tell you what's on the Emerald Tablet. Would you like to know what it says?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Okay. There are 15 points on the emerald tablet. I'll number it and then tell you what it says.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Number one. True without falsehood, certain most certain. True without falsehood, certain most certain.

Cristina: That sounds like gibberish.

Jack: Totally sounds like gibberish. Point 2. What is above like what is below. And what is below is like what is above to accomplish the miracle of one thing.

Cristina: Wait, is this related to Hermes? Did he write this about what's. Okay, continue before I continue.

Jack: Okay, let me go ahead and answer your question. It is believed that this stone was made of an impossible fusion of rock. A golden rock, gold.

Cristina: Gold.

Jack: An emerald and emerald. The gem creating a semi gold, semi emerald hybrid stone, which was then etched with a message that seemed to be perfectly cut, not like it was hit with a chisel.

Cristina: So then how could he have written on it?

Jack: How did you make such an impossibly hard piece of metal, made of literal gems and steels of sorts, or not seals, but metals, and then so cleanly, without any bumps or bruises or anything uneven, etched a message onto it?

Cristina: It's alchemy related.

Jack: It's alchemy. Had to be alchemy. Hermes is attributed with having made this rock. Okay, he's attributed with having made the rock, and he's attributed with having written the things on the rock along with having created the hermetica.

Cristina: So what else is on this rock?

Jack: Let us continue. And as all this is number three, and as all things were by contemplation of one, so all things arose from this one thing by a single act of adaptation. 4. The Father thereof is the son, the mother, the moon.

Cristina: I don't know what he's trying to say, but okay.

Jack: Number five. The wind carried it in its belly, the earth in its nurse. 6. The father of all, the perfection of the whole world is here.

Cristina: Is it him? Is he him?

Jack: Number seven. It's powerful. Its power is integrating. Its power is integrating if it be turned into earth. Its power is integrating if it be turned into earth. Number eight. Thou shalt separate the earth from the fire, the subtle from the gross, gently and with ingenuity. 9. It ascends from the earth to the heaven, and again it ascends to the earth. It descends to the earth, and again it descends to the earth. So it ascends to the heavens and descends to earth, and receives the force of things superior and inferior.

Cristina: Is he talking about himself?

Jack: Number 10, by this means you shall have the glory of the whole world, and thereby all obscurity shall fly from you. 11. Its force is above all force, for it vanquishes every subtle thing and penetrates every solid thing. 12. So was the world created. 13. From this are and do come admirable adaptations whereof the process is here in this. Hence I am called Hermes Trismegistus, having the three parts of the philosophy of the whole world. 15 that which I have said of the operation of the sun is accomplished and ended. That is all the points.

Cristina: So there's three parts, though. There's three parts. Is this one of the parts or is there a third part that we just never haven't figured out about to make a philosopher's stone? Because he just admitted that there's three parts.

Jack: He also required people to know three parts in order to talk to him which are the three different technologies and philosophies.

Cristina: Cool.

Jack: Which he just referenced the philosophy.

Cristina: So yes. Also he sounds like he's talking about the Matrix. And like once you figure out you realize you're living in the Matrix, everything's.

Jack: Which falls in line with the seven hermetic principles.

Cristina: Yes, pretty much. That is the rules to the Matrix. Once you get this, you got it.

Jack: Yeah. Like once. Once you know, you know, once you.

Cristina: Know, you know, just try to know you're in it. That's. That's all you need.

Jack: It sounds like that's what he's saying, right? That really is what he was preaching. Neo back then. He's like, it's all an illus.

Cristina: Yeah. Like he's not even saying escape it. Because he's saying, if you. Even if you leave it, you come back. You're better just by being here.

Jack: Which. Interesting point in isolation to make. I also took a lot of note of that very important point because this feels very reminiscent of what we were talking about. Yaldabaoth leaves.

Cristina: But what does that mean, Jesus mean more?

Jack: What does that mean? I think that's the becoming a God part. I think it's. No. Now I can interact with the whole program in one shot. You came back better. Now you're God.

Cristina: Yeah. Because if you just leave, that's. That's it. Because you're just whatever in that other new place.

Jack: Yeah. You're just a individual. Which is fine. So are they.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But over here, you're crazy. Something else.

Cristina: Yeah. Truly a God. Like even more so than before. Like he just.

Jack: But then my question would be, would you rather be a God in a fictional reality or an individual within reality? Ooh. That would be the argument. Right. So if you escape a simulation. Jesus. Right? He's not even real. He's just a simulation. But he can escape into an exoskeleton and live amongst the humans in an Android sort of body for. Until he can't anymore.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: He would be an individual, but he would be in reality.

Cristina: Yeah, but Hermes is saying you should come back anyway, because doesn't matter.

Jack: He's saying it does not. Nothing matters.

Cristina: Oh, yeah.

Jack: His point of view is, well, if you're from over there, it matters, but we're from over here. Nothing could happen. Everything is our plaything. Yeah, well, then we gotta take a step back because we're like, oh, they're scared of Yellow Bell. And then we're like, oh, no, they're scared of the aliens. And we're like, oh, no, they're scared of Jesus. Is that who they're scared of?

Cristina: Who?

Jack: Hermes.

Cristina: Scared of Hermes.

Jack: Whoever's scared of whoever. Because it's like, no, everything is my plaything.

Cristina: Yeah, that's true.

Jack: It's like the detachment from the message is. Comes with it, you know?

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: It's the whole. Hey, guys, I can teach you how to just manipulate reality. But also, the message here is, nothing matters. You can just manipulate reality.

Cristina: I guess, but, like, that's how he taught. Like, he doesn't care.

Jack: And they weren't doing anything about it when he was just teaching at a school and they knew he was there.

Cristina: Yeah, like, he's really whatever about it, man.

Jack: It just looks like there's people who roughly don't like each other, but, like, that doesn't mean anything. It's more like, I don't like you, but, like, we'll still trade or whatever. The. Nobody's, like, beefing hard here.

Cristina: There's no evil villain.

Jack: There's no villain. But there seems to be a direction, if anything. I mean, everybody's pointing one way.

Cristina: Yeah, but towards what? I don't know.

Jack: That's the short part. Everybody's walking in the same direction, which means following anything takes us in the same direction. Following anything takes us in the same direction. That's one thing we've learned. Everything aims in the same direction. We don't know how far in the future that direction is.

Cristina: That direction. What is that direction?

Jack: We know they're all tangled up, all heading there together.

Cristina: We need to find how to join that line. I don't know.

Jack: But he does say leave and come back. He says every side is the same.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: Over there and over here. Yes, it's all equal. We could do the same things everywhere. It doesn't matter.

Cristina: Oh, crap.

Jack: That falls in line, doesn't it?

Cristina: Huh? That's really complicated.

Jack: It's another layer, dude.

Cristina: Because like what?

Jack: That's another layer. It's another layer. He's not exiting into reality. He's just moving through another part of code again.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: It doesn't matter how.

Cristina: That's the only code too.

Jack: That's why it's all equal. It's the same.

Cristina: After he figured out he here, he can figure it out over there.

Jack: Exactly. If you can figure out how to move from here to Shadow without ever needing to break your code with adrenochrome.

Cristina: You can do it.

Jack: Then you could do it again anywhere and you'll never need adrenochrome. You could just keep doing it because it's the same logic, it's all the same s***. You could just manipulate the program we all exist inside of.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: D***, that's crazy.

Cristina: I don't know. It does feel like he wants to share it for sure. But it seems like the shot the known, not the shadow people. I don't know what the shadow people think. The sea people seem like they just want to keep it to themselves. Every time they try to share it, it goes bad.

Jack: It goes bad. It doesn't seem like they're greedy off malice. It seems like they are overprotective. The end.

Cristina: Yes. And then Jesus seems like he doesn't want anyone to find out because that's why he keeps giving people adrenochrome. Because there are things, not just Jesus, but other beings, other godlike beings that we call gods that are sharing. They want people to have blood, drink blood, sacrifice blood, whatever. Those are people that don't want us to get there. There are some villains.

Jack: We're not trying to stop us from getting anywhere. I think these people are just trying to get there themselves.

Cristina: Well, why are they using us?

Jack: Because it's easier than figuring out how the to become a necromancer or build a Shinto gate, which is essentially necromancy at this point, I'm assuming.

Cristina: But if you share the blood or whatever, you can't. You can never escape you, but you.

Jack: Can go to the Shadow Realm, which is still more than this, I guess. You can never die. And that's better.

Cristina: That's better.

Jack: At least to them.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: They're okay with losing their minds as long as they live. That's people who rather have the immortality part than the. They're always gonna die. If infinity. You're gonna run out of blood at some point, no matter what. That road goes one way. Yes, it Goes one way. There's nothing else that could happen. It will default to you. Not getting it. Going feral. Losing your f****** mind. And now you're the other thing. The end.

Cristina: Oh, yeah. Not dying, but I guess. Yes. The old you. The other you.

Jack: The infinitely dying version of that.

Cristina: Yeah. Yeah, okay, sure, you could just be.

Jack: A wendingo, but that's not reality. You're gonna be a wendingo for a bit, and then that's gonna go to s***. And you're gonna become a wetchudge and be some crazy rabid f****** thing forever. You're gonna stop thinking.

Cristina: You're just gonna be the one that's probably gonna murder you because of all the murder that you're doing.

Jack: Yeah, you're gonna be murdering a bunch of s*** and somebody who understands how to kill s*** like you. Boom. Now you don't exist. So you still got to the same f****** place. There's no. Wow. I didn't think about that. There's no winning. It's just extending it. But you're f***** either way.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: It's either a nightmare. I see. I get why it's described as h***. I get it. You have to do f***** up s*** to get it. You have to be a monster.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: And, well, not to get it. You could get it by accident. Oh. But in order to sustain yourself now you got to be f***** up.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: So you got to be f***** up to sustain using it. Then when you go there, you have to be more f***** up to not. Because this is infinity, now you're there forever. So you died over here. Now you're there for f****** ever. Okay. The clock's ticking. You have an infinite, infinite timer that you got to keep resetting by getting more. Either generate fear or go f****** find blood. But the only way to get the blood is to generate the fear in the first place. And that's just random chance about being in the right spot at the right time that maybe you can f****** slip through and then f****** use that to scare them more. Generate more than show up and get blood. The likelihood seems astounding.

Cristina: That really sucks.

Jack: Yeah, you're gonna. No matter what it looks like, 99% of these m************ end up being feral. Shadow creature.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: There's no way. Like what the. And the ones that don't are one, exceptional or from the shadow realm.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And two, those exceptional ones. I never thought about this before because I guess we didn't think about this before, but there has to be at least some.

Cristina: Somewhat.

Jack: Some things that actually did not turn Feral after going there and didn't have special other tricks like the necromancers, who presumably have to die also. That's another reason why we're obsessed with the death part of necromancy. It appears, although it's not explicitly said anywhere, that all of them seem to have died at the end of achieving knowledge and come back with the powers of that acquired knowledge.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: So just random detail, I guess that also connects to death. The fact that they have to die. This version of the list was translated by Isaac Newton. Weird random detail.

Cristina: He's a necromancer.

Jack: Seems irrelevant until we consider the fact that we chased some other irrelevant dude called Aristotle to these guys.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So it's like at this point, if your name is important somehow, there's something about you.

Cristina: He is a student. Is he a student? Do we know he's a student? Is he the secret nanocromancer we haven't found out that exists today? Not today. But you know. That's too random.

Jack: So what do we know for a fact about this stone? We know the color, the material. It has many accounts, by the way. There's.

Cristina: It's more than one reference to it.

Jack: Many references to it. It is the main body of work. Luckily he wasn't around. No.

Cristina: Oh, it's.

Jack: That's an interesting detail about that. That stone absolutely vanished in the 900. Just vanished. Just totally. No, no explanation. Just totally stopped being talked about. Now it seems to have to be a record of having successfully completed the philosopher's stone. I would argue that's accurate because it says the three parts and then it says the thing specifically the quotes are from this are and do cometh Admiral Adaptation therewith. The process is here in this. Hence I am called her Mistress Megistus. Having the three parts of the philosophy of the whole world, that which I have said of the operation of the sun is accomplished and ended.

Cristina: Like saying that is the third part.

Jack: I not is the third part. You're thinking about third parts? I'm thinking when he says third parts, he means Earth, Shadow and Elfame. The three studies. You should know before you even with him.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And he's saying, I've perfected the three things. I think this is him declaring something along those lines. Alternatively jumping on the line you're trying to get to.

Cristina: Is there a third part to the stone thing?

Jack: Is it the magnum opus? The hermetic seal and the.

Cristina: I don't know what it's called. The emblem. Emerald.

Jack: No, no, no. What's on There isn't Instructions. I'm not saying the Emerald tablet.

Cristina: Oh, just the blank.

Jack: I'm saying there would just be a third thing because he still mentions three things. And this sounds like reference to the philosopher's stone, not reference to necromancy. And we know that the three things are in reference to necromancy. Learn the three philosophies and the three technologies. Yes, that's about necromancy. This is about the stone, which is weird because. Is he also talking about necromancy and the stone weird? It doesn't seem like it. That's what's happening here though. So then what are the three things? You need the three things for the stone too, or are you right? And there's another, like a third part. We thought there was one and then it turned out to be two to begin with.

Cristina: Maybe this will lead us there.

Jack: It also seems like a proclamation of copyrights to some degree. I am hermit's term against this. I figured it out. I'm telling you guys.

Cristina: Yes, yes, it does.

Jack: But there's no proof of figuring it out. And again, it's made of a gold emerald fusion that can't be explained.

Cristina: I believe he figured it out. I think that's enough to say he figured it out. What more does he need?

Jack: The copies of this, the. All the people who managed to copy all the things that were there managed to do so. And those lines like the tablet. How do I put it? Those lines that you see in the tablet are referenced and split among other parts of text that are associated with Hermes. So not that tablet per se, but that fills in parts of other works, which together then gives us six works.

Cristina: What do you mean?

Jack: If you cross reference anything into everything Hermes related.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: All the works attributed to him, all the philosophy is attributed to him. Materials like this stone that have additional texts, and you start compiling them into groups, you come up with six groups that scholars use to differentiate between the hermetic teachings. The first one is the writings of the material world.

Cristina: Okay, sounds simple enough.

Jack: Simple enough.

Cristina: It's gonna get weird though, very quickly. Okay.

Jack: The writings of the material world seems to be very focused on anatomy and earth science. Then we have the writings of the demonic world here. It immediately starts diving into alchemy, it starts diving into potions, it starts diving into mixtures. It's diving into adding things and fire and candle and this and that.

Cristina: Okay, he's a witch.

Jack: The writings of the celestial world here, it goes into enchantments, it goes into motions, it goes into ritualization, it goes into repetitive behaviors. The fourth is the magnum Opus.

Cristina: It's just in there. Okay.

Jack: The fifth is the hermetic seal. And the six only exists at the bottom of the drawing of that stone you saw, because the guy had no idea what it was. And Isaac Newton couldn't translate it either. It was too cryptic. Nobody knows what the f*** it said. And the only guy who even understood the movements enough to replicate them in his drawing is not clear if he got them accurate enough to decipher them because of how complex those the order of structure was for whatever was written there. It's not Latin. It's some.

Cristina: It's probably written in fairy.

Jack: Who the h*** knows? It looks like Latin letters, but it does not. Using a construct or Latin to what.

Cristina: The third part of this is because we have the three different.

Jack: The third collection of the not third, six collection of data. That piece, which is referenced with other work, is one of several different works associated with them. The others have no additional work to them. They just happen to be written in identically the same fashion. So because of this sixth cryptic writing, the other works that were also cryptic could be connected to it. And in analysis of. Oh yeah, this is the same handwriting. Then an entire sixth body of work that is not understood by any means.

Cristina: This is a secret six book.

Jack: It's a secret sixth book by Hermes Trismeguessis that has no explanation to what it says. And it's several pages of absolute gibberish.

Cristina: It's not gibberish. Oh, my gosh. It's the third part. It's the third part. You have to be a. You have to study the first three parts. The three parts are right there. Mark 1, 2, 3 of what you need to be a necromancer is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 has to be the stone, how to make the stone. Yes, but you have to master 1, 2, 3 to understand number 6.

Jack: Yes, definitely. Something about 1 through 5 gives you the answer to 6.

Cristina: Something. Yeah, I think so. I think so. He did it. He did it in a way that anyone. Because he wanted to teach anyone anyway, anybody who should, not just anyone can. Like we could look at it and get nothing from it. So many people probably have looked at it and got nothing from it.

Jack: Millions of people probably throughout time.

Cristina: He found it really hard probably to teach people it, no matter how much he's tried. That's probably why he just wrote it in writing and hoped that one day someone would get it.

Jack: And anybody who casually does figure it out, the more you figure out, the more you probably come across messages within all of this. It says, don't tell anybody. And that's part of. Probably part of the initiation process. The further in you go, the more secretive about it you're gonna get, because it's telling you to until said event happens and you cross paths with this guy who's been around for thousands of years. But also, by the time that happens, you're so informed, you expected it.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: So it's like, wow, this is really going to be the moment. Some ancient being is about to cross through that like. Like, doorway in the middle of whatever random place this series of everything took me to.

Cristina: Him meeting Santa Claus or whatever situation. Like.

Jack: But it would be Hermes, wouldn't it?

Cristina: Yeah, that's what it would be weird to imagine. Hermes meeting up with Santa Claus.

Jack: Oh, but it wasn't Santa at that point, Nick. It was just a guy.

Cristina: It's just a guy.

Jack: Just a dude who really went hard on figuring some out.

Cristina: People did figure it out. It's just a. It was very little.

Jack: It was random people, too, man.

Cristina: Yeah. How did they get their hands on it?

Jack: I'm not even sure. Merlin wasn't related to Christianity. That's just some other dude. Some dude who figured it out.

Cristina: Yeah, some guy.

Jack: Some guy.

Cristina: But that's how hard it is to figure out that it had to be random.

Jack: It's random. It has to be absolutely random. There can't be any pattern.

Cristina: Yeah, yeah, dude.

Jack: St. Patrick, dude, he's a Celtic who got recruited by the Christians. They're like, d***, he figured it out. You come. Hey, man, you want to be a friend?

Cristina: Yeah, he's definitely a necromancer. He's a question about it. Yeah, for sure.

Jack: For sure. Dude, they turned to you to solve the problem. Get out of here.

Cristina: That's crazy. So there is a third part. There is six parts. It makes sense that there's six parts.

Jack: Yeah. Once it got put together like that, like, I didn't know that scholars had already divided it into groups.

Cristina: They did.

Jack: It might not mean anything to them.

Cristina: No.

Jack: But us and listeners of this show, after we've connected all these dots, we get looking at it together in the order that they themselves put it. It's like, come on, bro, you crazy. I know what we're looking at.

Cristina: Yeah, yeah. We're looking at it. We're looking at all.

Jack: We're looking at how to become a necromancer and how to build the most overpowered thing.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: All the instructions in front of you.

Cristina: To get out of the simplified.

Jack: Yeah. To exit the matrix. Super simplified.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: He made it six bullet points somehow.

Cristina: So that for sure relates to breaking the Matrix. It's.

Jack: I mean the point of a Philosopher's Stone is that it literally bends reality.

Cristina: Okay. Because just knowing all this and having necromancy power because there seems like. Unless the powers come from the stone itself.

Jack: Interesting. But it seems. It doesn't seem to be the case. It seems more to be the case that you need the stone. I don't even know what the h*** you need. So I guess it's the bend other s*** the same way.

Cristina: I guess. It's complicated. So complicated.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: There's something are powerful without the stone, but you also need to make the stone. Like it's obviously part of it. Because I would.

Jack: Maybe not. Maybe it's more like the stone. Although it will give you exactly the same powers. That's why people who have acquired the stone have still managed the abilities without having learned. It would be because the stone does have power. But the idea is maybe that's just a point of initiation. Like, well, you're gonna be equally strong to the stone as a necromancer. The stone doesn't matter to you. But making it proves you understand.

Cristina: Okay. It's a final test.

Jack: Yeah. Making it proves you get it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: The test is whatever happens after the hermetic seal step, nothing else before that matters. That's the lessons. Or if six is also a lesson, then the seventh is the test, which is hand me the stone. Show me it's done, it worked.

Cristina: When you get it, I think the.

Jack: Stone is the test.

Cristina: Yeah. Okay. Maybe because if you're.

Jack: It doesn't seem like they need it. It seems like they bend reality with it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Like it's a casual piece of jewel, a plaque. It's your diploma. Diploma.

Cristina: That's the way to look at it. Yeah.

Jack: It's your diploma, your necromancy diploma.

Cristina: Wow. Like it. That makes sense.

Jack: And it allows. But it's also crazy because you could just bestow this power upon somebody, but also you could take it away effortlessly from them.

Cristina: The stone.

Jack: The stone. It allows you to give this to somebody knowing that they couldn't stop you from taking it back. That's interesting because once you can make the stone, the stone is the most irrelevant thing to you. The moment you can make it, that s*** is useless.

Cristina: How we're gonna guess that Adam and Eve are just stones? He made. He gave it to them. But like, they're not necromancers?

Jack: No, I don't. I disagree with that narrative entirely. I believe Adam and Eve were in fact Made by Yaldabaoth, Sizzan and Lilith.

Cristina: I do think they were without necromancers.

Jack: Without the use of necromancer. I believe they did not have the other parts. I think the magnum opus. Or not the magnum opus, because I suppose that's the earthrealm version. But I think they were trying to do it with different steps or something and that's why they weren't achieving what they needed to.

Cristina: So you're saying Adam and Eve are not perfect stones?

Jack: No, I know they're not. Because let's find the narrative real quick. Jehovah showed up on three separate occasions to collect the three different fruits so that he can in theory go make stone one and two. You needed the other fruit for what? Who did Jehovah turn out to be interacting with? Hermes. Hermes would know how to what? How to make the stone. So this guy went and got the two fruits plus the third fruit while hanging out with Hermes, the known necromancer.

Cristina: So he is involved.

Jack: Then Jesus Christ happens.

Cristina: Oh, okay. That's why. Okay, yeah.

Jack: Do you see?

Cristina: They went to him for that.

Jack: All the steps of first Adam, then Eve, then blank equals Jesus.

Cristina: The blank is Hermes.

Jack: No, the blank is the other stone before Jesus.

Cristina: Oh, the Hermes stone, though we can.

Jack: Call it the Hermes stone for sure. But Hermes has a stone, presumably? I have no idea. He probably has many.

Cristina: Yeah, exactly.

Jack: But it's different kinds of stones. Now that we know they're different kinds of stones and they do kind of things differently. So you're totally right. Oh, interesting. Yaldabaoth has the shadow stone Eloi and Sizen, or timeline wise, way back in who knows how long before the universe was made. Yaldabaoth has, or makes, I guess with the birth of the universe, the shadow stone was made. Yes, That's a weird way to put it, but that's literally what happened.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: With the birth of our universe, the shadow stone was made. Weird.

Cristina: That's weird. But yes.

Jack: Yeah, didn't think about that before, but that's a true statement. Yes, yes, yes. Then sizen Lilith and Yaldabaoth sometime from 156,000 years ago to a hundred thousand years ago, create the stone Adam and Eve and use the stone Adam and Eve to create modern day humans. So three stones so far.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Then we get, oh my God, it was in front of us and we're f****** stupid. Jesus Christ went into the shadow realm to steal the stones and Jehovah went into the shadow realm to remake the stones. It's because the stones were gone. Before Jehovah showed up. Before we start with Jehovah 12,000 years ago, he begins by going into the shadow realm and getting the parts to make them stones. Why, if he had them? Because he didn't have them. Duh.

Cristina: Jesus took them.

Jack: No, Jesus is not around yet. He wasn't created.

Cristina: He took the stones. They already had the stones.

Jack: They weren't in possession of the stones. Somebody already took the stones. Jesus went into the shadow realm to take the stones. Yalabaoth already has the stones at the point that we introduced to Jehovah, trying to make new ones at some point. So really, 12,000 years ago, where we enter with Jehovah, we. We don't have Adam or Eve. They're gone already.

Cristina: They're gone.

Jack: That's why he went into the shadow realm to go get fruits to go make those stones again. Okay, we begin with Jehovah specifically, not the whole story with Jehovah. He didn't have the stones. Adam and Eve, he never had them. Eloi made both of them. Which leaves us with one culprit and an actual path to follow.

Cristina: The culprit is Yahweh. Yahweh.

Jack: If these stones are moving from generation to generation, how in the f*** did Yaldabaoth end up with them? And you're the f****** only guy. Cause it wouldn't have been Jehovah. He's thorough. If anything, he's annoyingly thorough. People don't even like how a*** this guy is.

Cristina: I need a timeline. I need to see a line and the like dates and the people and like, I don't know. I have to physically.

Jack: Yaldabaoth infinitely long ago makes the stone that makes our universe. Then 150,000 years ago, 56,000 years ago, specifically, the stone of Adam is made, and then a hundred thousand years ago the stone is used. Then a hundred thousand years ago, the stone of Eve is made and 150,000. Or no, my bad. 150,000 years ago, the stone of Eve was made. And hundred. I mean, not 150,000 years ago, the stone of Eve is made. No, I'm wrong. Adam was made 156. Used 150. Eve was made and used a hundred thousand years ago. Okay, Jehovah first goes in to get the fruits in the Shadow Realm 12,000 years ago. Loi did the same thing about 1.5 million years ago. They're both looking and trying to do the same thing. The one individual we have almost no mentions of, we have no reference points of. But if it the information and Its existence made it all the way to Jehovah. Must have made it all it to him through his father, Yahweh. Yes, Yahweh. Who knows Hermes, Yahweh, who must have either had possession of Adam and Eve and lost it, or have somehow been the reason he doesn't have it in the first place. Even if he never got a hold of it because Eloi had it. At least we know between Eloi and Yahweh, it disappeared.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And somehow Hermes is still part of that.

Cristina: That somehow.

Jack: Somehow.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Yahweh might have lost the stones because we know Yaldabaoth has them. So why was Yahweh easier to take advantage of? But I feel like Loi was probably really gullible too. It was just kind of like, cool, chill. Yeah, I'll do whatever. Doesn't care. We don't know.

Cristina: There's not like so little reference. Yes, exactly. None of this makes sense. It's hard to put it together. It's there though. We're there. We're almost there.

Jack: Maybe almost where? I don't even know.

Cristina: I don't know.

Jack: Random other detail because we're way over time. I'm really quickly rapid fire this information. In another Aristotle note, because I've been going through some of that stuff still there's so much. Apollo is referred to as Apollonius.

Cristina: What does that mean?

Jack: It means that Apollo's a nickname.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Right. Running Apollonius through a search. Apparently he was an actual Greek man.

Cristina: Interesting.

Jack: So now we have a record of this guy. Right. Similar to Hermes, Apollonius was actually an individual who performed astounding miracles. Just like Hermes the God Apollo the God Hermes, Trismegistus the Dude and Apollonius the Dude were both exceptionally amazing people who accomplished things scientifically, medically and alchemically thought to be impossible. They thought this guy was going to be the Jesus of f****** Greece. I don't know how nobody connected. I don't know. I gotta look in them. I don't how nobody connected. The fact that. So I found that he's referred to this way because a lot of his notes are in Greek, but they were actually translated. People think Aristotle wrote all his work in Greek. He was writing his work in Latin a lot of the time because it was a more general language for other scholars.

Cristina: Well, so like someone else changed it.

Jack: His work was oftentimes translated back to Greek, but it wasn't originally written in Greek. So I translated to Latin first and then to English to get the proper. And it came back Apollonius and Then I ran that through and it came out with this guy who has exactly the same treatment.

Cristina: Ridiculous.

Jack: Which means now I believe it more because you got two different individuals who have the same thing. And to summarize it before we just wrap this up, that means Apollonius and Hermes can both be placed in one location at the same period of time by the same person and known to have undergone the same historical treatment. Apollo has to be looked at.

Cristina: Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Jack: We can put him in the same school in the same time frame, known by the same man. And history treated them exactly the same. They're trying to hide something from below.

Cristina: There's gotta be other people he mentioned.

Jack: Then there has to be many other people we have to look at Aristotle. There's something weird about.

Cristina: Yes, yes.

Jack: He wasn't just some guy.

Cristina: He's not just a guy.

Jack: The fact he's mentioned it all. Somebody's trying to hide something.

Cristina: There's something happening in that school. More than we know.

Jack: More than we know. More than we know. At least for sure. For sure. Side note. Side note. The school Lycium did in fact have students that later in history went to both Lycium and also went to Antonio Draco's academy, the one used to research Alicorn.

Cristina: That's weird.

Jack: Just a random line that connects to a dude who factually knows about Adrenochrome and a dude who factually knows about Alicorn. Just the ability that we could pull up names, like, I could find you student. Not that they would have known anything, considering they seem to be irrelevant nobodies.

Cristina: Maybe not all of them, but.

Jack: Yeah, exactly. Like there's literal names of individuals who have their hands in both pots.

Cristina: Are we gonna have him turn up at the school?

Jack: That would be nuts, but I doubt it. It'd be crazy if we go ahead and find out that John the Russian was really just Hermes too. And he's like, here, man, here's this thing I found. Yeah, it's like, wow. Investigation, we don't know, end up on the same trail. Find out the guy who's meeting that the guy who told them who gave him the alicorn was Hermes. And then the guy he met on top wasn't even the Elysians. It was also Hermes. Like, hey, you ready for training?

Cristina: What kind of game is Hermes then? That makes Hermes sound more like.

Jack: Like Q or some.

Cristina: No, like, I guess, but Merlin with author. Like, just being weird.

Jack: Oh, yeah, Weird. Like, why are you playing games, dude? Just do the thing. Yeah, anyways, but yeah, we'll continue more next time. I would dive deeper into random crap, but that's where we are now. Anyways, if you guys have any additional details or any of this and blah, blah, blah, send us messages on our socials at just Convopod, on Instagram, Tick tock X and on Facebook, I believe.

Cristina: So remember to subscribe and review the show.

Jack: Yes, and word of mouth. We are uncovering the truths of the universe. And I know that you are very concerned that this is becoming more of a Matrix series, but, like, what else could it have been?

Cristina: Yeah, I guess if we go in.

Jack: The direction of technology, what else could it have been?

Cristina: They want us back into the fantasy world.

Jack: Like, if you go far enough in one direction into science, it will be a simulation running a time loop. That's all.

Cristina: That's all that's ever.

Jack: That's all it's gonna. It's got a default to it.

Cristina: It always is.

Jack: Yes. If you look at it enough, no matter what you're inside of some simulation, whether it be computer or a mind, a giant complicated brain or something, this is a simulation. No matter how you look at it, it's not absurd. And it's a time loop. You're just remembering the same moments over forever. Doesn't f****** matter.

Cristina: Doesn't matter.

Jack: Time loops and simulation. You're gonna repeat the same thing forever. None of it matters. The end.

Cristina: The end. This has been the Rambling podcast. Take nothing personal and thanks for listening by.

+Transcript

Cristina: Warning. This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.

Jack: Going live in 5, 4.

Cristina: What does live mean?

Jack: Welcome to the Rambling Podcast. I am your host, Jack.

Cristina: And I am your host, Christina.

Jack: And this is the show where we ground humanity's most absurd and baffling ideas. Oh, my God. So baffling.

Cristina: Are they really that baffling?

Jack: They're always baffled, aren't they? Aren't you baffled? Haven't you been baffled every time? Haven't I managed to baffle you about the misconceptions, about the kind of. The level of ignorance we have on 100% of all the information all of the time?

Cristina: Yes, it's pretty baffling. Yeah, pretty baffling.

Jack: It's pretty baffling. So next time when we were talking about a school, talking about a school, we were really, as usual, investigating some other part of this infinite Rubik's Cube. And in the school where Aristotle, by the way, Aristotle was teaching at a school that was allegedly inspired by Apollo, who happened to be a Greek God, but happened to be in the notes as an individual who just happened to be in the school along with Jehovah as well, which is very interesting. And it gave us Jehovah's last name, which is overpowered. Now we know Loi is either last name or a title. And all of that happened. And within those same notes written by Aristotle in the library of Aristotle, they are kept in Lycium, the school, there is a mention of Hermes Trismegistus.

Cristina: What a name.

Jack: It means thrice great.

Cristina: What?

Jack: Yes. And that mention in Aristotle's notes does not describe him like a mythical individual, but rather the same way it does with Apollo and Jehovah. It describes Hermes Trismegistus like not the deity Hermes Trismegistus, but the individual Hermes Trismegistus. There is a legendary figure that's based on a God named Hermes and a g******** hoth. And there is also an individual of this name who has none of the characteristics of either one of those two that share all the characteristics with the first Hermes Trismegistus, but the share none of the characteristics with the second Hermes Trismegistus, which is the legendary. No, not legendary.

Cristina: Very confusing. What?

Jack: Yeah, there's like four guys with the same exact name.

Cristina: Did you talk about this last time? No, no.

Jack: You got questions, I got answers.

Cristina: Okay. Okay, like, okay, what?

Jack: Yeah, the level of unpacking you want is up to you. I got way into this.

Cristina: Ok, okay. So there is a God that he's based on or something.

Jack: There's a God named Hermes and there's a guy named Toth.

Cristina: Are they really. They're related.

Jack: There's a man. No, they're not the God named Toth, the Egyptian God, by the way, the Egyptian God named Toth is literally a member which. You remember this from last episode. Was literally a member of the Greek gods. I mean the Greek gods. The Egyptian gods. And Hermes is one of the Greek gods.

Cristina: How do they relate?

Jack: There are two legendary figures named Hermes, Rhys, Megisthus. There's a real guy. And all of these fake characteristics applied to the other guy. It seems that there was an actual guy.

Cristina: Does Toth have to do with anything?

Jack: Both the characteristics of Toth and Hermes are the same. Become Hermes Trismegistus.

Cristina: Oh, okay.

Jack: He is a combination of both these individuals.

Cristina: Okay. Is he like their child or he's some other thing?

Jack: Or there is a fictional character, okay. That people took from Hermes, the real Trismegistus man, okay. And built a mythical version of him. Stories that became so different than the real man that it became a different man of his own. A man nobody ever saw. A man nobody ever shares his name. Yes. Identical almost to Toth and Hermes, the God. It's a combination of both of those. Seems to be hers. Hermes Charisma guesses.

Cristina: Okay, so with the school, are we talking about this made up version or this God version or both?

Jack: That's up to you to decide as we go through it.

Cristina: Okay, what, what, what's the difference? What was the God about? Was he also about the rules of the universe or whatever?

Jack: Yeah, he's just one of the many gods of creation. But not really, no. Within the context of the information given, he was just one of the Greek gods.

Cristina: Oh.

Jack: So as far as we. And we went through him before when we were just going through the Greek gods and the research they were doing as a research, he was just background eyes. He was a helping hand. He wasn't an important God.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: But the characteristics of Toth blend. Thrown in a blender with Hermes equal the last name. Trust me guesses. And now you got a new person. But it turns out that that legendary fake made a person was actually a real person too. So there are two individuals with this name, the fake character and the real person. And the real person was also very impressive. The problem is that neither one of these two people share characteristics. There are two legendary individuals, one of which has nothing but fake characteristics that never happened. Because it's made of two real individuals that actually existed.

Cristina: It's very confusing.

Jack: And then one guy who actually has things he did in the real world.

Cristina: And Socrates is writing about the fictional one or the other one.

Jack: That's for you to decide. It sounds like he's writing about a real one by all of our discussion. So I don't know why you're asking. And obviously we would be talking about the real one we established before. But you can decide who we're talking about based on the context of what we're talking about.

Cristina: Okay. What?

Jack: Yep, that's where we. That's where we are. We got this Hermes guy that we know is lurking in the school. According to Aristotle's notes, he mentioned three people again, Apollo, Jehovah. Yes, and Hermes.

Cristina: And Hermes was just a teacher.

Jack: What we know of him, we don't know if he was just a teacher. We know he was a teacher. I don't know if he was just a teacher. I know he was a teacher.

Cristina: Is there more on him?

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: Like what?

Jack: You want all of it listed? I could just list it off.

Cristina: I don't know what's important to. If he's the guy we're looking for.

Jack: Well, that's the investigation we're doing. The point is to find that out. I can't tell you if he is a guy we're looking for. No, like if I knew I would just start there and be investigate from that point. Well, he's the guy we're looking for. This is why. But that's not the case for hopefully trying to figure out if he's the guy we're looking for. So that's for us to Conclude. But. Hermitras McGussj. Right. The questions we're coming in with are essentially who is he?

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Is he somehow related to our greater narrative other than being this guy who seems to fit the suit? But we've come across coincidences before.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And ultimately is he our necromancer? Is the question they're going in with. Right. So immediate things that matter. The first and most important mention of the name happens to be exactly on paper, by the way. Happens to be also in the Hellenistic period when we were looking at Alexander the Great, which puts us where we wanted to be to begin with. There's holes in this explanation which I'll get to.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And to catch up again, he's also the author of the Hermetica.

Cristina: Those are hermetic principles.

Jack: The hermetic principles and the philosophies and narratives surrounding it. Now, several important figures within both Islam and Christianity have described him As a wise pagan.

Cristina: What? Okay, yes.

Jack: These are people of the past and people of the present have both described them as a wise pagan. I found that very interesting. And some descriptions included prophet. So.

Cristina: So weird, because the Hermetic principle doesn't feel very like he's talking about a God or like he's saying many gods have made us. Unless I missed it.

Jack: Well, the Hermetica includes a bunch of texts about religio philosophy, but it seems to lean into that religion is ultimately philosophy. Because his teachings, which I have listed right over here. Let's see if I can. So his teachings, right. They included the fact that he believed in a singular universal philosophy that would thread through all of the religions and sciences of the world, essentially proving them to be all correct and one simultaneously.

Cristina: Doesn't sound very pagan unless I have no idea what pagan is.

Jack: Well, yes, because he believes in every.

Cristina: God, but also they're all the same one God.

Jack: Yes. So these are in the. Keep in mind, I didn't say he describes themselves this way.

Cristina: Okay. I said yes. Okay.

Jack: Yes. Leaders within Islam and Christianity call them this. And we know Christianity at this time is also. Well, not Christianity this time, but Christianity in the early stages. And most of the sects of Christianity now are just a manipulation of the true narrative of what happened. They're gonna slander whatever the truth was no matter what. So we already can't believe what they say?

Cristina: Yes. Oh, that makes sense. They have to claim he is okay. And also, they probably don't understand what he's talking about.

Jack: They probably do.

Cristina: Well, then why would they be against it?

Jack: Because they are against him.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Now, interesting enough, other than this Aristotle mention, which he describes him as wandering the halls and waiting for either an elite or a special group of students that he would teach either some secret or private information to see. He's either. He either has elite students that he teaches some profound knowledge to where he's molesting Hella students, in which case this dates back to that time where his special students got the best treatment, which, like, I wouldn't be shocked if that's what's happening happening here. Because we'd also not come up with age limits yet. It was just probably a bunch of miners. Who knows at this point, but minus that possibility, it looks like he was teaching people who could learn and that they were elite, not minor.

Cristina: Okay, Disturbing. Okay.

Jack: I mean, it's the pattern at this point.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Especially because we're talking about leaders of leaders. And it seems like the people always doing this is leaders of leaders.

Cristina: So he could be one.

Jack: Like, if he fits the suit 100%. And like, if we. If we turn enough stones, that's always there, along with adrenochrome. It's like I'm already milking them for blood. Might as well f*** them. Like, I think that's the ultimate idea. That's why we always find both, since they're already here.

Cristina: I don't. I don't know. Maybe it's like I already have them.

Jack: In a cage and I'm milking him for blood. Like, how far can I go? Like, whatever. Oh, I got further than just raping them. Imma just rape them too.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Like, you know, that's ultimately the thought crossing their minds. Like we do all this other dark whatever. Yeah, they're jaded. They don't care.

Cristina: So crazy.

Jack: Okay, now again, he was discussed roaming the freaking holes.

Cristina: What?

Jack: You're a real person. The real version of you. There's records of this man. Many living life, doing things.

Cristina: He lives in the school?

Jack: No, he was just wandering the school and waiting for students. And then he goes and teaches the students and who the knows where. And they learn what the knows who.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: But weirdly enough, he's quite connected to the Greek gods, because other than just Apollo, he also mentions Ashlepius. Aristotle mentions Asleepius, which you don't remember him directly, but you probably remember the name. No, you don't remember Sleepiest, because the sleepiest is the one who becomes Glycon, a snake. The Naga.

Cristina: The Naga. Yeah. Okay. He met Sleepius.

Jack: Well, I actually. Original. So this is a weird one, because in the text where we find Asclepius, we have texts about Aristotle as written from the perspective of Hermes, where he also talks about Asclepius. So the argument here is the same as Aristotle writing about Jehovah speaking with Apollo.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: This is Hermes writing about Aristotle talking with Asclepius.

Cristina: Philosophers back then were weird.

Jack: And they were like.

Cristina: They all did that. Like, all of them.

Jack: All of them. And this is funny because this, like, it would feel way more made up and if it wasn't for the fact that like when we even talk about Plato and Socrates is like this. Just talking about that.

Cristina: Exactly. It's like. Yeah, the same when we were. I don't. I don't get it. It's the. It is weird.

Jack: Yeah, it's just. They're just talking about each other. That's it. They're just gossiping and reviewing. Yeah, that's it. That's the whole thing. Whoa. The revelations we came up with because of gossip.

Cristina: Yes, that's exactly how it works.

Jack: He's stupid because he thinks this and I think that that's pretty much it. Yeah, Sums it up. That was the whole wall. Revelations were all so amazing. The renaissance is happening. But that's basically kind of sleepiest.

Cristina: Sleepyish.

Jack: Yeah. It was just be basically being mentioned within the text. There's no specific mention other than within a couple of conversations. Nothing was outstanding.

Cristina: It was just hanging out.

Jack: Yeah. Talking with students. He was seen in some interactions. It was just there.

Cristina: He's just there.

Jack: Nothing important. But he's present. That's just notable because it's another God being described again as an individual, which we also have on many others. And then we connect based on who in different texts they're said to be around. But now we have some of the people that. Because again we'll find like Zeus and there'll be literal text of a guy who fits every description of Zeus. But it's different when we have literally somebody saying the name and it's like, oh no, they were just a person. And it's like, oh, well, we knew, but we didn't have the proof. We just knew because all the data. So everything is a theory until somebody's like in a record. This guy is literally like, okay, one dude. Yeah, now that's different. Now it's a record that I can be like somebody was like straight out. That's. This is not a metaphor.

Cristina: Yeah. Did they mention sleepy is not becoming something else or something or it just.

Jack: No, it was just a mention of them.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: We can extrapolate that the events were probably true too based on it matching all of the other narratives we have that kind of fit the, the total image together. But this just. I like to note these moments when somebody confirms what we were already believing. Because 99.99 is not proof, it's a theory. Until somebody's like, no, I was there and that was just a person. It's like, okay, then that's a hundred percent. We have a first hand account of like that's just dude, whatever. Then that's different. That grounds it and that proves the things. And this s***'s hard to find because a lot of these people just discussed as gods in most texts and they were just.

Cristina: Did Zeus ever visit the school?

Jack: Not as far as I know.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Now in the Quran I found a mention of Hermes, but by Jehovah in which he says he is a man of truth. So that's getting. Now I still have no idea based on any of these. If Hermes is Elysian or human based on what? I'm thinking human based on what we know of the other potential necromancers.

Cristina: But we don't have proof either.

Jack: We don't have proof on any of that. But he's on Jehovah's good side. But also Mary might have been human.

Cristina: Who?

Jack: Mary. And she was also on Jehovah's good side. So like there's not exclude. And like, so St. Patrick, there's not exclus. And Peter, like there's humans on his good side. It's not a rare, it's not impossible. Although rarity. Yeah, but he's a man of truth.

Cristina: That's what he said. He's a man.

Jack: That's the line from Jehovah.

Cristina: So then why do other people not like him? Why are they calling him pagan? If Jehovah's saying he's not, he's.

Jack: I think it's the branches of Christianity that aren't led by the Elysians.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: I think it's Jesus, his branches of this.

Cristina: Very strange. But I guess because he wants himself to be the one on top no matter what.

Jack: I don't know.

Cristina: Jehovah doesn't care.

Jack: I don't know. We actually have no clue.

Cristina: And why else would he want the other religions to be raised?

Jack: Well, no, eventually he dipped anyways, according to all this crap. So like I don't get any of.

Cristina: It, whoever's running his thing.

Jack: Yeah, I think it became the personal interest of other people. I think the lack of a leader is just leaders will come and thus cults will happen. But I don't think it's like his narrator. I think he dipped and let it all fall apart. But we also have no f****** clue. Again, these are just the stories that built on the pieces we put together.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But I find it interesting that Jehovah was on his side.

Cristina: That's awesome. It was interesting.

Jack: Now we're going to touch some important details because in reading I came across a word. I'm familiar with this word. I wasn't familiar with the words origin with the term. I suppose it's a term, not a word hermetically sealed. Except now saying it out loud within the context, it's like, duh. It's obviously related to what? Hermes, obviously.

Cristina: Oh, hermetic.

Jack: Yes, yes. It gets a little interesting now.

Cristina: Seal, seal. This. This is magic related. Well, this sounds very pagan. Okay, I changed my mind. He's a pagan.

Jack: It was happening. It was gonna be. It was gonna be. But as I read the following next sentences. Brace yourself. Because we've found things again that we weren't looking for, but that are answers to questions we had and some we didn't. So the term hermetically sealed originated literally because of this one. Hermes we're talking about who existed within the school of Lycium. It came specifically from taking residue left over from the magnum opus procedure, then placing it inside a glass and then sealed airtight by fusing the neck to the lid. This hermetically sealed container containment would then be heated for approximately 40 days to result in the philosopher's zone. The magnum opus is only the first steps of it. We thought that was the entire setup. Hermes actually knows the rest of it. Not only that. This predates.

Cristina: He's an alchemist.

Jack: He might have been made this s***.

Cristina: He. Oh, crap. What?

Jack: It's called hermetically sealed. Because he invented it.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: The last steps are literally named after him.

Cristina: Yeah. To create the stone.

Jack: The philosopher's stone. The reality bending philosopher's stone.

Cristina: What?

Jack: Hermetically sealed literally connects back to how he used to seal this vasel. That he would put the residue from performing the magnum opus. And that last few steps of putting it there, sealing it and superheating it.

Cristina: For he was murdering his students. Were they special in that way? Like they were gonna be sacrificed?

Jack: I don't know.

Cristina: Because where's the residue coming from? Dead bodies?

Jack: We don't even know of him performing it. We just know that that's where that procedure comes from.

Cristina: He has to have though.

Jack: I know he performs it. Obviously it's named after him. But he's teaching these people.

Cristina: There's no way he just does the final step to it. That's weird.

Jack: Obviously he doesn't. I'm assuming. Keep in mind what we're talking about. Keep in mind what we're talking about. We still don't know what the rules are other than knowing how to use tech, a certain kind of philosophy and knowing Latin. Right. Basic requirements. But what do these culminate to make? Does he need you to find out all the other steps of the Magnum opus and somehow they lead you back to him and then he can teach you the rest of it. And only people who have gone on this road can piece all of those things together. I don't know.

Cristina: But he's making a philosophy stone.

Jack: He seems to be the guy who literally designed the method because it's called hermetically sealed. Unless there's an older method that doesn't have the seal. At least as far as we know. A part of the process is literally named after him.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: So predating the process, having your name in it is pretty far back.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: As far until further proven. I'm claiming he's the guy who made it because he also fits every other suit we need him to fit. And this would just be like easier than saying some other guy you have.

Cristina: To sacrifice people for that.

Jack: Yes. I'm sure he's not sacrificing his students. That's stupid. He would be finding other people to sacrifice. Especially if he's working for the Elysians.

Cristina: And the Greek gods. They can just probably make things for him to sacrifice.

Jack: Yeah. And there's probably different degrees if there's a lot of experiments happening.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Also the thing I didn't mention last week, don't they. They have a couple. Yeah, the thing I didn't mention last week, the lycium is literally in descriptions. The one of the known descriptions. Didn't find anything on it. I looked to see if I could come across anything. But one of its literal descriptions is that it was also used to hold occult rituals. So putting this into that perspective now, there was definitely philosopher's stone creation happening in there that they were interpreting as cult rituals when in reality it was science. But if it's a suit of you just sacrifice a person or some probably kind of culty looking.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But it's secretive. You guys are doing some. That kind of looks like magic. But really you're doing some traceable steps in science.

Cristina: Yes. That's weird. What? They're sacrificing Nagas. Fake Nagas. They have a bunch. They're just making them those prototypes that are trash. Like he could just get rid of them.

Jack: Why would he have a Naga?

Cristina: No, when the gods. When they made a bunch and they're like these are all defected anyway.

Jack: Right. But he's not one of them. Why would he have access to any of that?

Cristina: Because they visit the school.

Jack: The Naga?

Cristina: No, the Greek gods.

Jack: The Greek gods don't visit the school.

Cristina: Oh no, not the Greek.

Jack: Other than just Apollo, which is the.

Cristina: One that's working with these Nagas, making them.

Jack: Zeus.

Cristina: Zeus. That's one.

Jack: No, this is not a Keto is.

Cristina: Zeus is not the one that's making other ones like the. The main Medusas.

Jack: Yeah, that's keto. That's Zeus's mega.

Cristina: Oh, okay. Okay.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: And he's never visited the school?

Jack: No. As far as I know, no. The only individuals of note are the ones I've mentioned which are Apollo, it is Aristotle. Hermes, Just these individuals. Essentially. Yes, there were Alexander the Great and these individuals. But they were within the tiers. There's also tears in the school and within the tears that we're looking for. Alexander and his friends simply connected us to Aristotle. Yeah, they're surface level students. Their parents are rich type of s***. As opposed to. You really know. The deep knowledge. They don't know the deep knowledge.

Cristina: They were just in the right rituals and Etc.

Jack: Yeah, like the deep, deep s*** unrelated to them.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And that's what I believe was really just the making of the philosopher's own.

Cristina: But how are they making it?

Jack: By sacrificing people. They would bring obviously would be. Why they described it as a second as ritual. Cult rituals.

Cristina: Obviously just people.

Jack: What else would they be sacrificing? In every instance it's people.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Other than the crappy experiments we've known locally that are included butterflies and other.

Cristina: That is very.

Jack: Okay, we know of attempts to extract it from other. But like no, he was. They were more likely than not just bringing people to perform it, I guess.

Cristina: But I feel like the school would have a pretty bad reputation.

Jack: Why? If it's a secret, like how would they have a bad reputation? It's a secret. That is the point.

Cristina: No one would mention. Like that's a. That seems like a hard.

Jack: You're either learning it or dying.

Cristina: Okay. Okay. What?

Jack: Yeah, it has to fall into that category. Like this secret society. Some people can keep secrets. And that's also probably also why there's not a bunch of them. And I'm sure anybody who's tried to talk has been offed immediately.

Cristina: I guess that could happen. The Socrates never mentioned any of that though.

Jack: No, you mean Aristotle.

Cristina: Aristotle, yeah, Aristotle.

Jack: No, but again the fact that he has. So it's basically you perform the magnum opus and then you hermetically seal it. Those are two different sets of steps. Hermetically sealing is three steps and the magnum opus is four, seven steps total to creating a philosopher's stone. We thought the magnum opus was the entire process. Yeah, but it was the first half. The first part at least.

Cristina: So you keep it sealed and then what?

Jack: You heat it.

Cristina: You heat it.

Jack: You put it in there with some chemicals, some gases. In the script, it's not explained what they are. Some gases, some material. You seal it and then you heat it for 40 days. I was trying to find out what to put in there. There was too many different things. None of it. It was. And it was a coherent. It ranged too widely for you for it even to matter.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Like. Okay. There must be some way to zone in on this. At least I know those steps exist, but I couldn't figure out what it could possibly be. What it could possibly be. I know you perform the entire magnum opus and then you take that and you hermetically seal it, and it goes through those two processes, and then you have a philosopher zone.

Cristina: Wow.

Jack: So now we have the completion. As far as we know. Unless the third part shows up.

Cristina: There could be a third part or.

Jack: A first part that we didn't know about.

Cristina: Oh, that's possible too. We have no idea.

Jack: Yeah. So as far as we know, the magnum opus is being hermetically sealed. And that is you hermetically sealed. The magnum opus and thus philosopher's own crazy.

Cristina: They were making a philosopher stone.

Jack: Yep. So this is a weird. The philosopher's stone seems to be about as rare and secretive. We were trying to compare and see how many of those we have. So the philosopher's stone seems to be about as secretive of an item as the people necromancers are.

Cristina: Yeah. Since it seems like.

Jack: We'Ve got Adam and Eve. Those are two philosopher stones. For a fact.

Cristina: Yeah. And whatever. No Christ, no Santa Claus is carrying with them.

Jack: Yes. Well, that brings us into an entirely different point to talk about, because in our attempt to answer whether or not this individual is a necromancer and he is out here working with now literally coming across text linking him, hermetically skilled is literally tied to the magnum opus. It is the last steps.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So you know how to make philosopher's stones and necromancy tied together again, because out of the individuals we know, and I've got this right here, which are St Nicholas, St Patrick and Merlin. All three depictions at one time or another featured red gem. What we discussed this we talked about. I don't remember all three of them. Nicholas has a staff with a red gem inside it.

Cristina: That was a necklace.

Jack: Patrick has a necklace.

Cristina: Patrick has a necklace.

Jack: Patrick has a necklace with a red gem inside it. And so does Merlin. Also has a red gem in his necklace. All three.

Cristina: What about Jesus?

Jack: We don't know about Jesus, but there is. Fair enough. No, you're totally right. Jesus also has an image which I do remember us talking about. That's not in my notes because I forgot about that and I didn't look at it. But I do remember specifically that he does have an image with also a necklace that seems to be more popular than the staff, unless the staff just allows it to be larger. And hence he's op. Because of that. Because the one in the staff, assuming the glow is to scale. The one in the staff is bright, bro.

Cristina: You sure it's not a necklace? He has a staff.

Jack: He has a staff. He has a staff with a red gem in it. And then Patrick. I looked at the notes. I looked at it and Patrick has a necklace and so does Merlin.

Cristina: And maybe Jesus.

Jack: Jesus also. I don't remember Jesus. I didn't go and check. But yes, I remember he has a necklace as well because I remember the specific image with the thing around his head.

Cristina: Okay. And Hermes has the necklace.

Jack: Well, Hermes is literally making them. I'm just talking about that. They're all connected to it. They're all connected to a red gem.

Cristina: But he doesn't. We don't have any stories of him wearing it or descriptions of him having something like it.

Jack: No, but he would need it. Why he can make it. These people have it because they didn't make it. It. He has it. He wouldn't have it. He's handing out the ability.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: As far as we know, he wouldn't need it. Also, if we had descriptions of him, this would be way easier than it is right now. The fact that we don't is part of why finding him is a problem.

Cristina: Because it's all secretive.

Jack: Yeah. If I had like a clean consistent. This person said this. This person said that. These are literally the same words. We would. No, I just need two individuals who line up. That's it. We know who he is by default.

Cristina: But we don't even know that much about him.

Jack: We know that much about him. It becomes quite a problem quite quickly. But I'm about to tell you why it becomes even more of a problem.

Cristina: Why? Okay.

Jack: Because this is where the point will happen.

Cristina: The point.

Jack: The point. So as far as we know, based on the information we have discussed, he seems to actually be the guy we're looking for. Although we don't have. Again, it's too hidden. But he fits the suit. He's messing with philosopher's stones. In fact, making it. He literally. There's a part of the process named after him that's crazy. So he might have made the process. There's nothing more necromancer than having designed what necromancers use. I think that's okay.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: And he's teaching people this private knowledge that is already the ridiculous. Yeah. Super secretive to get there. And we know the steps to even be acknowledged or considered are super difficult to. And incredibly secretive. So kind of a lot of lining up lines. But what were you gonna say, like.

Cristina: How many people are actually learning this? Or, like, just being a part of the class doesn't mean you actually get it?

Jack: I think that's the case here. I think it's. People will be eliminated gradually as they figure it out and figure out who fits and who can do it.

Cristina: Okay. Because it's super rare that someone actually succeeds. I'm guessing thinking so.

Jack: Because we don't know about a lot of cases. We're talking spread out and few.

Cristina: Yeah, three.

Jack: We got three, maybe four. And with this guy, maybe five.

Cristina: That's crazy. Yes.

Jack: We might have more stones than these guys. Yeah. We have to Adam any stones. Yeah. Because let's think about it. We have Adam, Eve, whatever Yaldabaoth was using. We have whatever Santa has. We have whatever Patrick has. We have whatever Jesus has.

Cristina: Jesus.

Jack: Then we have the one that Merlin has. We're up to seven with that.

Cristina: Well, Merlin's not carrying the stone with him.

Jack: As far as we know, Merlin wears the necklace.

Cristina: Oh, yes, yes, yes. Yeah. The bell has a stone.

Jack: Yes. That's how he got the fairies.

Cristina: Oh, yeah. Okay. Ow. Okay, that's seven.

Jack: Yeah. We have. We've. We're finding stones now.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: We've unlocked the next level. We're finding stones, but somehow we still have less necromancers. We're up to three potential assurances, plus two huge maybes, which is the other maybe Jesus and Hermes. Although Hermes might not be a maybe. He might be the top of this. And then I see four plus one.

Cristina: Maybe Jesus may or may not. I mean, he is created from the stone, but he also probably has a stone.

Jack: I don't know.

Cristina: Yeah, but if he doesn't have the stone, he still probably has the powers of the stone without having the stone, because he was made from the stone.

Jack: We don't know if these people are even can. We don't even know if they have a stone. We just know a red gem is in their possession. The one in St. Nicholas art is glowing. That's probably definitely it. In the other cases, it's just red gems. I don't know if bigger size means crazier illumination. And because it's in a necklace, we don't see it shine. So crazy. The only staff is the shiny one. But if it were to scale, then those could also be stones, and that would put us relative to scale. Like, we. We understand where they rank based on their stones, in which case we could literally just play a photo game and put them together and see who overpowers who.

Cristina: You're saying Santa overpowers everyone.

Jack: I think he. If the size of the stone matters, then he is on a whole other level.

Cristina: How did he even get such a big stone? Is he related to the school somehow? Was there a Nicholas student?

Jack: I don't know. But. But where? This gets even more complicated than talking about her medically sealed and finding out that he potentially designed the entire thing is when we talk about the three prophets. Because now something recently familiar is gonna make a little more sense. And now I'm starting to think it might be just cultural. So let's look at the following couple of steps. The three prophets are Enoch, Noah, and the Egyptian priest king. Why do these three individuals matter so f****** much right now? I don't know.

Cristina: They're from Egypt. I don't know.

Jack: All three of them went by the name Hermes Trismegistus.

Cristina: No, I didn't slap one. That makes no sense.

Jack: I found text with all of them going by that in their respective times.

Cristina: Why? Why? What does this name mean?

Jack: Well, like I said recently, new but this is a callback because as we also know, Loi turned out to be very similar.

Cristina: It's just some type of title.

Jack: It's just some type of a title. And now we're talking about somebody else. And I in looking through it, find they're not just of two people, but several people with the same name. Literally the same name. Because although I cannot confirm to you if Nicholas and Patrick are directly, I think, I think maybe either they also go by or went by Hermes Trismegastus, allowing it to be a lengthy name that transcends time. Or they aren't necromancers because Hermes Trismegistus might be a title for necromancers.

Cristina: Oh my gosh. What? But then is there like, how. How can they be related to his Hermes? What about them?

Jack: They're just labeled as Hermes in one text or another talking about them. So for example, if you look at Enoch, he's referred to as Idris, and Idris is then referred to as Hermes Trismegistus. They are the same guy. So you find Enoch through Christianity and then you find him in Islam where they literally one to one him to Idris. They're like, no, we just call him this over here. And then they change his name to Hermes Trismegistus as a title for what he does. And it's like, wait, so wait, hold the up. So you're just telling me that Enoch is Hermes? Trust me. Guess this, because you're literally saying that Idris you're literally just saying that Enoch translates to Idris, and the Idris is Hermes. So indirectly, I don't need him to say it in Christianity, because they said that they're prophets.

Cristina: But how does that relate to them being Hermes or Hermes?

Jack: Like, I don't know. They're just labeled as the three prophets, which are Enoch, Noah, and the Egyptian priest king.

Cristina: But they're not making stones or anything, or do they have stones?

Jack: I don't have any stories of them having made stones.

Cristina: And is there any stories of Hermes prophesizing?

Jack: There are many stories of Hermes prophesizing and getting it correct kind of often.

Cristina: Oh, okay. What?

Jack: Yes. But there are also many stories of Patrick doing that, and there are also many stories of Nicholas doing that. Weirdly enough, there are also many stories. Literally, the story is that Merlin did that. That is literally the Arthurian story that he literally prophesied. So in every instance, they prophesied and got it right. All of them.

Cristina: So you think those are. Then Hermes is a title, not an actual. Like, he's who they're talking about in these other stories.

Jack: Well. Well, here comes the need for an important metaphor that luckily. Thank you, cw, for making things popular at the right times. Oh, no, this was amc. No, thank you, cw. Thank you, amc, for making things popular at the right time. So that references make sense. With appropriate context, I would like to bring subject A. Negan.

Cristina: What?

Jack: A man who is, in fact Negan, but also a bunch of people who believe in his ideology and perform his bidding. Also go by Negan because it protects who Negan is to all go by Negan because then it obstructs who he is, where he is, what he's doing. If everybody just goes by Negan.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: This allows one incredibly important logic to be applied every. And by the way, I have to add the very next detail that it's very important because this is gonna send that home. This is the mic drop. I usually wait for a completed episode that is about in over an hour. But I'm dropping this and just done after I make my point, because I don't need a better point.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Hermes is not just a title people take, a name they take because everybody who fits the suit of Hermes, as we have gone through their images before, they all dress exactly the same. They all look exactly the same. Even within different religions. They usually. And follow my logic very, very directly here, within different religions, regardless of how the religion itself dresses. We're talking completely conservative, fully covered from the beginning of time religions and opposite religions that are okay with just being who you are in your flesh. All default to the same aesthetic for their leader, who happens to be long haired, bearded, in a robe, usually draped robes in a Roman style. Even if you're in f****** Islam, it doesn't matter where the h*** you wear. You dressed exactly the same and your leader looks exactly the same. If you remember literally the three individuals I used for Jesus for the image of us recently talking about Jesus when we were talking about his other titles, they all fit the same suit. Well, if you actually put all of Jesus's aliases next to St Nicholas and St Patrick and Merlin, you couldn't tell me who the f*** is who. Because every single one of them is indistinguishable in how they look in complete contrast to all the images of all the people drawn around them.

Cristina: What are you talking about?

Jack: All the art representing all of these individuals looks identical. Describing the individuals, even if. If we know within context they are not the same individual. While all the people around them looked completely differentiated from this one center person who always looked identical to each other. I believe that the ideology of taking her matris megistas. We will just use Negan for the sake of explaining this better. I believe they weren't just going by Negan. I believe they were opting into looking like Negan, talking like Negan, sounding like Negan, talking about Negan's philosophies, pretending the beaniegan to everybody they ever came.

Cristina: So we don't know who the real Negan is.

Jack: It would be so hard to zone in on who he is. Because the point was the philosophy.

Cristina: One guy.

Jack: There's one guy who began it. And the point is to obstruct who that is. The goal is to obstruct who that is. But the although good job in your mission, you created a bigger mission problem that helps us.

Cristina: How?

Jack: Because we know what we're looking for. You gave us thousands of examples of it. That's where he f**** up. Yes, you gave us thousands of examples to comb through. But in giving us examples, you reduced us from having to look through a billion.

Cristina: Yeah, okay.

Jack: Do you see the problem? So the logic for back then made sense because there weren't a lot of people. We're talking a fraction of the people. Hundreds of thousands. A couple of million people. Maybe a billion people at that time.

Cristina: All these people like Santa and whatever are like students of his who decided.

Jack: To really followers of the philosophy.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And users of the ability. And presumably individuals who had to study underneath literally whoever the real Hermes Is. Yeah, but this is where we get the problem, right? Because we have the God Hermes, but that's just a person that happens to share the name. Because fake Hermes Trismegistus. The legend is just narratives of these two people overlaying over that guy's name. There's God Hermes, and then there's Hermes Termismegistus, the guy. And then there's the legendary figure Hermes Trimagestas, who has the name of the real guy and the characteristics of the two gods that spun out of control because the real guy was so impressive, but also a complete mystery. So you had to slap information on him because he has to exist in these shadows.

Cristina: Okay. So confusing. But the God version of him, it's not him.

Jack: It's unrelated to him, I hope, because this makes sense. He's not mentioned in any context. And the guy that is there is Apollo, not Hermes.

Cristina: Where's Hermes the God from?

Jack: He's part of the researchers.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: This is background noise from that group. Not even impressive.

Cristina: Okay. There's no way he could be the same guy. I don't know.

Jack: Nah. Is this a name? These are just people and they're allowed to have names. And sometimes names are.

Cristina: Because he has the whole name or just his first name?

Jack: No, he says first name.

Cristina: Oh, okay. Okay. Thought he was also calling himself Hermes.

Jack: No, he just has the first name, Trismeguessis. The only people sharing that entire name are Enoch, Noah, the Egyptian priest king. Whoever was going by it at that moment in Alexander the Great's life next to Aristotle. And people we don't know are using the name, but might be because they fit the visual descriptions. The locations and the abilities would be St. Patrick and St. Nicholas, but they.

Cristina: Were not calling themselves Hermes, as far as we know.

Jack: But they fit the look. Which means if you were trying to disappear, you would go by one name, and if you're trying to be visible, you'd go by the other, which fits. Every time they're going by Hermes, we just think we're hearing about Hermes. Who knows how many of those times we were just talking about one of them doing something.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Because there's no way to know when who is what. Because they all go by Hermes and they all can do the same things.

Cristina: That's complicated.

Jack: And they can show up through different time. They can all bend time so they can all pop up at different points in time. There's no linearity to them.

Cristina: Can her memes mess with time? I mean, yes. The prophecies are.

Jack: Yes. And necromancers the prophecies line up with time bending. Yeah, yeah, that s***'s clean across. Like they're obviously seeing some as they're with time. And then they tell us about it.

Cristina: Yeah, okay.

Jack: That just answers each other. That's why they're accurate about it. It's not. They got powers. They're using science. They figured out the problem of time travel. Yeah. It's all science. There's no abilities. There's no magic. All of this is written down. And they just follow the steps to get it done. That's all it is. It's all just science.

Cristina: And he. I don't know if we proved anything.

Jack: I don't know if we proved anything either. I just know that the guy who is. We know. Most likely. But here's the other problem. Right. Because Enoch predates the dude in that building by quite a while.

Cristina: How does that make it make sense?

Jack: So the guy. The first guy isn't the guy in that building.

Cristina: But how do we know?

Jack: Because. I don't know. Because also we know that at least the other two people are ageless.

Cristina: Exactly.

Jack: So potentially it could have been the same guy the whole time.

Cristina: The same guy. I think so. That makes a lot of sense.

Jack: It makes a lot of sense. All. All jokes aside. Yeah.

Cristina: With the whole philosopher's stone thing, like. Yeah, yeah. He. He should have the ability to live forever. That's what he wants to do.

Jack: So you think it's just the same guy.

Cristina: I think.

Jack: And that it's not a bunch of people using his name.

Cristina: No, I think it's the same guy.

Jack: I think it's the same guy who has just been doing this one individual. And we. It is. That guy is here.

Cristina: Yeah. That's like before he decides to teach people what he's learned of becoming a. What's. What is he again?

Jack: What do you mean? Before he decides when.

Cristina: Before he decides to become a necromancer or not a necromancer. Before he decides to teach necromancer is before being just the prophet. Being known as a prophet. Before the school, he was just a dude.

Jack: He was just a dude. Fair enough. But these other individuals are known as prophets and they go by that name. That's the other problem. They literally go by that name.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: That's where the issue begins. So you bare minimum, have people going by his name if they're not him. Even if they're not him. Or. Or is the same guy. And instead what we're talking about isn't these guys going by Hermes. We're talking Hermes Goes by these names.

Cristina: Just like Jesus.

Jack: Just like Jesus.

Cristina: Yeah, I think so. I think that makes a lot of sense. I think that makes a lot of sense.

Jack: Yeah, fair enough. It could totally be.

Cristina: I mean, there's no proof, but.

Jack: There's no proof. But then the question is, should we be re evaluating the name Eloi and consider that there is in fact an individual named Eloi and many different names that individual went by, and thus. Yes, Yahweh and Elohim. And all these individuals are the same guy.

Cristina: I don't know about that. Unless we find out he's a necromancer.

Jack: Yeah, it could just 100 be a title in their case. And because necromancy seems to be the only way to have this ability, and being from the shadow realm, I suppose there doesn't seem to be consistency there.

Cristina: Yeah, but we don't know who the first person to make the Philosopher's stone, do we?

Jack: Galdabaoth seems to be as far as.

Cristina: We trapped back, but. So then it's possible that. What's the name of the guy you were just talking about?

Jack: Hermes?

Cristina: No, not Hermes. The God person, Jehovah. No, the one with the name Eloi. Eloi, yeah, See, the first one.

Jack: Yeah, yeah.

Cristina: Maybe he got the Philosopher's Stone from the other guy. The Shadow realm guy.

Jack: No, because that guy disappeared.

Cristina: But before he disappeared, he had the stone. He knows this person. He thought he was. Interesting.

Jack: No, we literally can trace the steps he took to make it. We know how he made the Philosopher's Stones. Who went through that step by step.

Cristina: And he wasn't there.

Jack: No, he did it with Citizen after Yalda had already disappeared. Okay, he did it by going to the forest.

Cristina: He did do it.

Jack: He did do it. But he didn't do it with Yalda Bow.

Cristina: No, but he got a stone.

Jack: He made a stone somehow with the use of a bunch of primitive creatures, primitive apes.

Cristina: And so he can still. He could have a stone.

Jack: Those are the two stones of Adam and Eve?

Cristina: Yeah. No, I mean like one personal stone, like all the other ones.

Jack: Those would be the stones of Adam and Eve.

Cristina: Oh, I don't think. I don't know. Because these other guys don't have it. Seems like Adam and Eve are being used for certain things. They're not just on you 247 to keep you alive forever.

Jack: Why aren't both true?

Cristina: I don't know. Just doesn't seem like it.

Jack: Why can't both be the case?

Cristina: I don't know.

Jack: Why can't it just be on you all the time for science.

Cristina: Because then how did. What's her. That girl wouldn't have been able to do what she did.

Jack: Yeah. And think about what happened when she did it sounds more like what you touch something that doesn't belong to you.

Cristina: But if it was on him, like how did she do that?

Jack: You think these guys slept with it on them type of s***?

Cristina: Yes. I feel like it's something you don't like. The unicorn thing. It's supposed to protect you. It's supposed to keep you alive forever. I mean, I know that one didn't because it's kind of a bad luck.

Jack: Well, no. Situation. Let's think about it. Let's think about it. Weirdly enough. And like, I don't like to give credit to Harry Potter in any manner, shape or form because that s***'s whack. But let's talk about how. How deep the research that she never discussed is because we f****** uncovered. Hella crap to just find out that this one dude who had the stone, everything turned the s*** around him and he actually managed to live through all of it until they actually managed to remove it from his grip and then he dies.

Cristina: You mean the horn?

Jack: I mean the horn. Yeah. My bad.

Cristina: Yeah, the horn.

Jack: The horn.

Cristina: Everyone around him who had a piece of the horn end up dying.

Jack: So like they are actually fine while they have a piece of it. It's kind of like if you came in contact with it, don't ever let it go.

Cristina: Hey. Or then you immediately die. So I feel like.

Jack: Well, listen to what I'm saying before you continue your point.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: This lady who wrote Harry Potter also found this because the point of Voldemort is that he's always at the verge of death, but never actually dying until he stops taking it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Which is on point with quite hard to find information. So bravo. To the level of homework she had to do for the stupid background noise. For a random explanation to some other.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: What are you gonna say?

Cristina: I don't know. But yes, it's. That's on point.

Jack: Yes, for sure. For sure. So your stance on this is ultimately that this is an individual with one name which fits and he goes by many different names. Jesus.

Cristina: Does it possibly. See?

Jack: And he is successfully. Because as far as we know, Nicholas and Patrick both have achieved some version of immortality. And Merlin was killed by a weapon designed to kill specifically whatever the h*** he was.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: So immortality out the window. I think you could still be offed by somebody. I think you just don't die of old age. When we Talk about immortality. I think that's what we mean.

Cristina: Yes, but fairy weapon can definitely soak out anything.

Jack: Well, that fairy weapon isn't what killed Merlin. The fairy weapon is what the fairy tricked.

Cristina: Oh, yeah, he traded him. Okay, he traded him with some other.

Jack: Thing she twisted that story and outsmarted the h*** out of. But you made somebody too gullible. The point was he could be controlled.

Cristina: Yeah. So you think he killed him with a normal weapon or.

Jack: No, he killed him with the weapon the fairy made. The fairy gave him a special weapon that could off, apparently a necromancer.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: So bare minimum, at least fairies know how to do that and they can just look at the programming and figure it out.

Cristina: Okay, interesting.

Jack: So, yeah, this is where we are, I'm assuming. Yes. Hermes, whatever the case might be, whether it's the problem is the guy in that building feels like the right guy. Yes, that's the problem. And if he is, then you're what's the problem 3,000 years after Enoch, who is also a guy going by that very same name, him. So one of two answers would happen. One, there is an actual teacher predating Enoch and there's a line of people teaching.

Cristina: Yes, I guess. Yeah, yeah.

Jack: Or. And like the teacher's name is all but like the master. I'm master this. Well, Hermes Trismegistus is equivalent to master. Yes, Thrice great. That's not a name, bro, but it's a title for sure.

Cristina: Yeah. So he's not the first.

Jack: Or he literally is the same guy who taught. I mean, not even taught. The one guy is the same guy and maybe that would make him the master. That makes him the master. He is Enoch. He is Noah. He is the Egyptian priest king. He is Hermes Trismegistus. They are all Hermes, just witnesses.

Cristina: Is it.

Jack: Is it possible in these instances? Keep in mind, I'll give you two bits of information that are probably important. I suppose that is the most popular considered order of those things. And I am not the first person to conclude this one little piece. I am the first person to attach all the other s*** to it. But it is again, it was quite easy because it's well known that Enoch, Noah and the Egyptian priest king all went by that name. Within these texts, as philosophers impact them, they believe they were all just variations of the same person stories being told at different moments. Okay, yeah, but it might literally have just been the same guy. As opposed to a narrative that just took name and different. No, it might literally be the same guy. Because we can follow literally the steps that Jesus took doing the same.

Cristina: Yes, yes.

Jack: I could trace every country he went to, the name he assumed there. They described them down to the T as the same guy. The timeline up, the location lined up in the trip he was going. And it fits what this guy's doing.

Cristina: So, yeah, I think.

Jack: Which is going by aliases and setting up little systems that you can enter in and out.

Cristina: But they just think it's all based on.

Jack: They think these are fiction. They think these are fictional characters based on a guy. Well, it can be, but we know that this guy was a real guy. And even now we know that the Hermes Trismegistus is agreed upon was a real guy. And that there's a conflation between a real dude and a fake dude. Dude that's just established.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And that the fake dude is most likely a connection of these other two. My argument would be that the fake dude is actually also the real dude and that all of these people are the one guy.

Cristina: Okay. Yeah.

Jack: So they're like, oh, he's like this God and that God and this. Because he could on both of those gods. And there's just people trying to rationalize. Dude just like, well, those guys are way op. And these guys are way op. The Egyptian gods. And here. What is it? The sun gods and the Greek gods. Oh, both of them are op. So he's like, if use two of them all. That's how overpowered he is.

Cristina: It was pretty overpowerful, I guess.

Jack: Yeah, exactly. He's still like, nah, I can on all of it. There's just them trying to rationalize. Hence this connection between them creating the mythical individual that supersedes the individual with the actual abilities, which is still. Because he could on the fictional one.

Cristina: Well, he could.

Jack: All the abilities of a necromancer seem to be way more overpowered than anything else.

Cristina: One thing we haven't really talked about is how would he like, if he's the necromancer, he has to do something with fairies and shadow.

Jack: He just has to be able to cross easily. But something to figure out a different time because we are way out of time.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Okay, so just run another time. But we're at least so close. I believe this is the guy.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And if all those names are the same dude, then we found him.

Cristina: If we can see if we can revisit those stories and see if the shadow realm or fairies are somehow involved in the stories, even just like a little bit. I don't know, because I feel like you have to have that knowledge to be teaching.

Jack: Yes.

Cristina: So maybe there is some story there.

Jack: What, of him? I doubt we would have his knowledge.

Cristina: No, not him, but these other versions of him. His.

Jack: He wouldn't have to record these things anymore because he is the teacher. He already knows it.

Cristina: I'm saying, like the stories of Enoch or Moses.

Jack: Interesting. So, yeah, I see what you mean. So the people we do know, the different aliases is going by before he's. Because these are in fact stories. You're trying to see what these events connect to that fit. Well, how do you know he's not a teacher at that point?

Cristina: Point. Well, we will.

Jack: Enoch is literally a teacher.

Cristina: Oh, okay. He's a teacher too.

Jack: Is literally a teacher.

Cristina: Oh. Oh.

Jack: But regardless of the point, your point stands because it's not that this is before him being a teacher. It's these are stories of names he went by. Which means within those stories, within depth and within context, we could uncover the right things.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: If we go in assuming this is actually him, how do we prove it? With this information.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Then that s*** just starts to make sense. A quick mention of. Oh, and I went to the dark place where the other things were. And it's like brawl.

Cristina: Yeah, yeah. Like something. Or even if it relates to somehow. Not necromancy, but.

Jack: Oh, yes, the philosopher.

Cristina: Very interesting.

Jack: Although literally being named after the philosopher's stone is kind of the home run here. I don't know what else we would need.

Cristina: But, like, if there's anything but these, we know their steps. And what if there's missing steps? And what if they lead us to those steps?

Jack: There's missing steps. What if we learn how to make a. D***, that's crazy.

Cristina: Yeah. Because I feel like we're just piecing. Like, we thought once that step was the step, and that was.

Jack: There were four steps, and we're like, this is it.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: And now we found three more steps that connect to the end. We're like. And it makes so much sense that those steps are there.

Cristina: So there's probably more.

Jack: There could be more. Anyways. Anyways, anybody who's listening to this, if you have additional information, please hit us up with it and tell us all that stuff. Communicate it with us. Hit us up on our socials at just Convopod on X, on Instagram, on Facebook, on. What else is there on Tick Tock. Tick Tock. Where all the place. YouTube. We're getting pulled there all the time because we're crazy. Crazy.

Cristina: Yes. And remember to subscribe, rate and review the show.

Jack: Yes. And word of mouth is extremely powerful. Tell people that we're uncovering the truthiest truths of them all.

+Transcript

Cristina: Warning. This program contains strong themes meant for a mature audience. Discretion is advised.

Jack: Going live in 5, 4.

Cristina: What does live mean?

Jack: Welcome to the Rambling Podcast. I'm your host, Jack.

Cristina: And I'm your host, Christina.

Jack: And this is the show where we ground humanity's most absurd and baffling ideas. And last week, you asked one very important question. I'm not even, like, building an intro here. I'm just straight jumping into the question you asked. And then. Because this is weird, bro. So last week, while we were going through essentially, St. Patrick and realizing that necromancers are a little overpowered, you asked a single question that really became a pressing idea because, like, yeah, really, really. We know that there are at least three necromancers, which means we have mentions of this thing somehow even more elusive than the Elysians.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: And one thing we found out, kind of looking around was that in order to become a necromancer, there are rules for somebody to teach you, therefore, there must be a teacher. There must be. There's a guy handing out necromancer.

Cristina: So you weren't sure about that, but you are sure about it, or you're still not sure about it?

Jack: Well, that's what we're trying to find out.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: We're trying to find out what I'm sure about.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: I have information I'm sure of, that much.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And we're gonna unpack because it's a weird road and we. We maybe don't even have the time.

Cristina: It's that weird.

Jack: I mean, look, there's a lot of discussing to happen, so first we gotta go and try to hunt down mentions of necromancy, because necromancy seems to pop up weirdly apart. We're talking that, like, King Arthur and Merlin are happening so far in the future from when we think St. Nick and so. And St. Nick is happening, I guess, roughly, weirdly enough, around the same time as St. Patrick, which are happening way sooner. Year. Hundreds of years ahead of Merlin. But we think Jesus might have also been.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Which, weirdly enough, he's hundreds of years before. So we. We know it's weird. It's like, there must be an original teacher. So we have to go as far back as possible. And when we get to Jesus, we're like, what's the other necromancer bro before him? Yeah, what's the necromancer before him? We have no instance. It begins at Jesus, as far as we know. Right. Oh, we have no individual that fits the characteristics and that we've by default Ended up defining as a necromancer. So now we have to try to find mentions of necromancy that are not.

Cristina: The people that we know.

Jack: That are not the people that we know. Maybe mentions casually that don't point at a necromancer necessarily, but rather just discuss necromancy. I'm like, where in history has this.

Cristina: Word come up necromancy though, what exactly is it?

Jack: As defined in common knowledge, abilities are included.

Cristina: Like a priest isn't a necromancer?

Jack: No. So okay, a necromancer according to common knowledge, like information that people have on average is an individual that connects with the dead. Individual that connects with the dead. They have the ability to raise the dead.

Cristina: They have not a medium they bring people to.

Jack: They can come. Yeah, they can communicate with the dead as well. They have medium like abilities as well. Okay, so they're all of these things. They're like the most overpowered version of that. Now digging deeper, what we've come to conclude is that a necromancer is an individual that can somehow traverse all three planes and has abilities relative to the science of every plane as necessary to simply learn the teachings of this. So you must have been, weirdly enough curious ahead of time and dove in into one. Have access to somehow getting information on all three of these, which doesn't make.

Cristina: Sense that they're human.

Jack: Like how it's the only requirement, right? It seems to be only humans can do it.

Cristina: Yes, but how, how is it possible they got any of this knowledge?

Jack: Well, that's the case, right? That would make you the exceptional human. That would make you the exceptional human because outside of humans they, this knowledge is common. You would be among the exceptional humans to have this knowledge of these godlike individuals.

Cristina: What? But like one of these things had to have. But then I guess that's the teacher thing. No, it's before a teacher is involved that this person would have this knowledge.

Jack: Before? Yeah, before the teacher is involved. You must already have been so curious that you somehow you, you must have had the curiosity that then led you to dig up information and led you to actually be so good at that the end. You'd need to be open minded on top of everything in order to break the barriers of the illusions built around you. So you need all those features in order to just qualify to be a student. On top of knowing Latin and other and knowing like all these super complicated to know ridiculous. Okay, problematic.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Like how the knowing Latin thing zeros us in an area. Obviously the teacher must know that language that's obvious the point, right? The teacher knows a language, and so you must know the teacher's language in order for him to teach you. Simple. Okay, Basic. We're back in the same area. We always hang out now. Simple. We. We immediately. We ld it. We're like, oh, it seems that he must be in Japan because of this. No, not this.

Cristina: Right now.

Jack: And we use the trick he uses, like, okay, we're just gonna put it in random places, and he's gonna reply to 1. And when he replies, he must be there by default.

Cristina: Yes. Oh, duh.

Jack: That here. The reply here is, what? Where. Where are you from? What tells us where you're from? Well, your language tells us where you're from.

Cristina: Interesting.

Jack: We just zeroed in on him instantaneously. Oh, research.

Cristina: Oh, yeah. That was very Death Note. Like, okay. Yes.

Jack: It wasn't even Death Note. Like, it was super. Yes. But, like, now I realize how simple that trick was in Death Note. It was very. It was clever. It was done in an epic fashion.

Cristina: Yes, but it wasn't that.

Jack: But it wasn't deep. It wasn't deep. They delivered it well, which isn't in reality, I suppose. Delivery matters more than the content, Right? That's the reality of the matter. You can talk. Somebody absolute dog. If it's delivered well. That's. I guess that's the argument in video games, right? If the. The game could look like the game could do it. Fallout 3 is a broken mess. And nobody's like, this game is bad. If you could sell dog. If the delivery is. Well, it's. It's truth. The what? Is it the goat game or the goose game? Both of those broken messes. They're popular because they're broken, I guess.

Cristina: But the goose game's not broken.

Jack: I think the goose game's broken. The goat game broke. But that's famous because of that. Oh, it's a broken f****** mess. But it's not famous because it's a broken mess, but rather because delivery is on point. It's fun. It's delivering on the thing that matters. Meanwhile, these epic bombasts, the games that suck. You didn't stick the delivery, bro.

Cristina: No.

Jack: Which was the fun part. Whoa. Graphics. Where's the game, though, anyways? Back to thousands of years ago. We know Latino man in Japan. Oh, yeah. Because we were l for a second, too. Oh, wow. That took a couple of weird turns.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: Anyways, so we're in our general region. Latin. We're talking Southern Europe, you know, Southeast Europe. We're talking the Middle East. Ish. We got an area.

Cristina: All right, we got an area.

Jack: We got an area. Now all the texts in that area, all the mentions of necromancy possible, all of the. Anything that you can possibly come across, and we go back so far that we end up predating. Jesus, that's good. That's good. We're predating.

Cristina: What? Latin? Is that old? Yeah, language.

Jack: I mean, I suppose. Okay, this takes us into the hellenistic period, specifically July 21, 356 BC.

Cristina: Okay, what's the Hellenistic period?

Jack: A period. Okay, That's a. The Hellenistic period is the name of a period in Greece that was in 4th century BC or some.

Cristina: Okay, what's happening?

Jack: So Pella, Macedonia, Pelamecon.

Cristina: What is that a name?

Jack: I guess so.

Cristina: A place.

Jack: I don't know how to pronounce a lot of this stuff. I'm gonna say that ahead of time. This is gonna. Language is gonna break down through a lot of this. Okay, I know.

Cristina: At least say if this is a person or a place.

Jack: This is a place.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And in this place, Alexander the Great is born.

Cristina: Okay, that makes sense. All right.

Jack: Simple things to note about Alexander the Great that are notable things about Alexander the Great. He was a student of Aristotle until he was age 16. He became the king of Greece in 336 BC at age 20, in 335 BC, he began a 10 year military campaign and he conquered West Asia, Central Asia, parts of South Asia. He conquered Egypt.

Cristina: He's a busy dude.

Jack: Busy dude. And he conquered. This means in saying he conquered that much of Asia that he also by default conquered Persia. Now we're touching both places. We need to be in contact for Latin, which we know is a requirement. And the connection to the Aletians, that seems to be important somehow.

Cristina: Are you saying he's related somehow?

Jack: Who's related?

Cristina: Alexander the Great. Is he part of the story?

Jack: Well, he's part of the information I've given you.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: He's. He's definitely part of the info I've provided.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: You know as much as I know. I'm re. I'm discovering this information as I'm going through it.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: I've never read any of this before, but he conquered Persia. Now we're touching Latin speaking people. Oof. And we're touching the ground that we know the Elysians are on. That's beautiful. That was quick. Ooh. Ooh. I l'd my way straight there.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: I'm so good. Kira doesn't stand a chance. I'm gonna have him.

Cristina: I Have Kira in this story.

Jack: The Necromancer. Oh, okay, yeah, oh, I got that, yeah. The necromancer. Whoever. The necromancer. Teacher.

Cristina: Teacher, yes, specifically, yes.

Jack: Okay, yeah, like the master necromancer. I guess that's who we're looking for. The master necromancer. Okay, so that's our Kira in this instance. But we got pretty close already now. 323 BC. You're not even ready for what's about to happen.

Cristina: Are you sure? Okay, I'm not ready. What is it?

Jack: Nothing important. He f****** dies. Oh, the end credits roll. Oh, yeah. So I was like, immediately, oh, this guy matters. He, he was topped by Aristotle. This guy started life easy. And this guy then became the king. And he conquered everything. He conquered everything immediately. What the h***?

Cristina: Ten years romancy powers.

Jack: I don't know. But he conquered places that he probably shouldn't be able to conquer. That's kind of weird. How the h*** did you do that? There are forces beyond understanding. Unless they didn't give a f***. There's no way they like f****** take the commoners. Whatever. You can't f*** with us. But it's like those are still your people, kind of, right? Even if they're like the bottom feeders, like, whatever. Those are still your bottom feeders. I think that's still the ideology that functions in people's minds ultimately. Like, f***. Those guys are not Persian. We f*** the lower Persians. He's not allowed to f*** the lower Persians, you know, that's the idea. So like, this guy is coming. No, we're gonna stop him from f****** the people we like to drop bombs on. Essentially. We're gonna wage war on the people trying to wage war on the people we wage war on, bruh.

Cristina: Wait, who is those people?

Jack: It would be the Elish. In this case, the Alicians. Would instantaneous, like zap, fry these guys out of existence, right?

Cristina: No, because they're trying to hide so they can't interfere.

Jack: This is 323 BC. Mm, well, until 323 BC, where when he dies, this is happening. So the Elysians haven't gone into hiding. Jesus. Hasn't happened yet.

Cristina: But they're there in Persia.

Jack: They're in Persia.

Cristina: They're underwater. They're hiding.

Jack: I don't think they're hiding. I think they're hiding their home. We know they've been around. They would just deal with it. They'll just deal with it. It wouldn't be a problem. So how the f*** did this guy do it? Unless he was A problem? But how? He just f****** died, dude.

Cristina: No one killed him off. How did he die?

Jack: Just casual. There's theories about it, but it wasn't anything like. It was this little assassinator. He f****** died of old age. Or he ate something that poisoned him. Or he got sick and f****** died of a. Just casual.

Cristina: No one knows.

Jack: Nothing. Epic. It wasn't like a f******. Not even a rumor, a crazy battle took place or. No, just.

Cristina: Why would they do that? If they wanted him dead, wouldn't they just get someone to kill him or poison him?

Jack: But it's like so anticlimactic and like you could just kill a necromancer like that. That's.

Cristina: That probably is. He's still human at the end of the day.

Jack: No, because we're talking about people who can somehow. Even if all the other things you could do and you can't like make it so poison doesn't work. Come on, bro, that's. That's where the knowledge breaks down.

Cristina: Yeah, maybe he was. No maybe.

Jack: No way. You're not catching him off guard. No, nothing. These guys control time.

Cristina: Yeah, he wasn't a necromancer.

Jack: No, it doesn't work, cuz you gotta.

Cristina: Die anyway to become one.

Jack: Yeah, presumably all the other mentions. We don't know of Merlin dying, but we know of Arthur getting weird abilities and having to. That by the way, was Arthur to some degree, like potentially meant to be a necromancer? He could have, potentially. Except the factor was he dies, he dies. He was the only one who didn't come back. The golem was different. The golem couldn't die. You could just dismantle him and turn him off.

Cristina: Wait, you think Arthur too?

Jack: Arthur might have had all the properties required, minus the fact that he was designed as a blank slate to be manipulated intentionally.

Cristina: I don't know. That's tricky.

Jack: So I don't know. But I know Merlin was. But maybe it's impossible. Maybe Merlin doesn't know how to teach it. He tried his best, you know, who the h*** knows? I don't know. I'm just spitballing, I guess.

Cristina: But Merlin. But Merlin's dead.

Jack: Merlin's dead.

Cristina: But dead.

Jack: Dead, dead, dead. He was killed by a special weapon sent by the fairy though.

Cristina: So it's possible that Alexander could have died from a special weapon, but a.

Jack: Fairy had to come and. But I don't think he was Alexander the Great. Doesn't fit.

Cristina: No, I think he was on his way and then got killed off because of that.

Jack: Maybe he could have been on his way he could have been on his way. So now we need to evaluate Alexander the Great because something must connect in some direction to him, right? There must be signs. So I keep following his story a little, just, you know, casual, and I come across the War of the Diode, the War of the Diodochi.

Cristina: Is that a place or people?

Jack: People. So to clarify, the Diadochi are rival generals, families and friends of Alexander the Great who fought for control over his empire after his death.

Cristina: Really?

Jack: And this led to. To the breakdown of all of his conquered territory of his empire into. Into smaller little faction empires of their own. He was the only man capable of sustaining the whole thing. He died and smaller empires formed. Okay, now, out of this entire group of people, there are many people, there's a bunch of notable ones. And out of the notable ones, they're notable simply because of their relationship to him. Notable in his story, essentially.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: But there's two people who stand out in particular because he had some really close friends. And some of his close friends were among the people who fought to take over what was left after he died.

Cristina: Okay? It's not just his family. He said it was his family.

Jack: It's not just his family. It's family, friends, rivals. It's all of the above. Everybody who could possibly get involved.

Cristina: And his friends are names that we would find familiar.

Jack: We wouldn't find the names familiar. They are just. They're notable to his story. They're just like. If you were like, this is the supporting character that matters because he shows up all the time. Okay, those are who these people are. So there's some who are rivals, there's some who are family and some who are friends who are really just consistently showing up in this guy's story, in his life. And out of those individuals, there are two individuals who stand out in particular, not because of who they are, but because of what they highlight. Now, he had five friends. Two of the friends were isolating from his group of friends are called Ptolemy and Cassander. And the reason that these two friends stand out is because of the giant finger they point. Keep in mind.

Cristina: What do you mean?

Jack: Well, keep in mind the information is often in the scenario, in the cases that we work in, the information that we dig, it's easier to find somebody pointing at the information than finding the information itself. Somebody talking loosely about the thing than actually finding the source directly because of how secretive a lot of this s*** is. In this case, the answer was in front of our face. Both of these individuals also took classes with Aristotle. Aristotle Suddenly became important. This philosopher, we know about, this very famous philosopher, he taught both of them. He taught apparently a lot of people. Okay, so I follow Aristotle. That was, hey, I'm looking, I'm pulling at strings at this point. Like the whole idea broke down. I saw the guy conquering everything, including these people, and then he just casually passes away. It's like, no, it wasn't him. So now I'm left pulling its rings. But it was the right direction because we still touched both places that mattered. So I don't have to go anywhere. I just have to look at the crap that mattered. In this era, we still got the mention we're looking for. So Aristotle, known as one of history's greatest philosophers with contributions in theoretical, natural and practical philosophies, considered one of the most influential individuals to have ever lived. As a result of his contributions, things we know, everybody knows Aristotle as name for all of infinity. And all his recorded knowledge has been divided into two categories.

Cristina: Like what? What are they?

Jack: The two categories are exoteric and esoteric. Oh, allow me to clarify what these two things are.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Exoteric knowledge is knowledge meant to be easy for the public to understand and intended for the public to use. This is general use. Information requires no special previous knowledge to grasp any of this information. It's tools of thought and applications that ways to think about life and approach and moving through life kind of in a scientific way.

Cristina: Okay, simple.

Jack: Then we have esoteric. In modern day culture, esoteric has evolved into meaning secret knowledge. In their exact definition, as they were describing what esoteric meant, knowledge that requires prior information to comprehend. Often time requiring complex education to grasp. Simple. All the information that we put in that category, is that. Okay, interesting. So it just sounds like higher education.

Cristina: Yes, yes, that's right, higher education.

Jack: So this specific knowledge though was meant to be taught and used at Lycium.

Cristina: What's that as a place?

Jack: Lycium is a place. Lycium is a school, a special school in Athens, Greece focused on perennialism. Athens, Greece is a Latin speaking place at the time. So we're still where we need to be. So a school meant to have higher knowledge that to this at this day we call secret knowledge. But back then they were calling that very knowledge, we're calling secret knowledge that very knowledge. They were just calling higher education.

Cristina: Okay, simple.

Jack: But that secret knowledge, we're calling it secret knowledge. That's our meaning for the word esoteric. But that knowledge that we're labeling esoteric, what they labeled back then was essentially the definition. I Gave you higher education. It sounds like to us, their definition just sounds like higher education.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Okay, now, what is perennialism? This school that focuses on perennialism, Supernialism is the philosophy and science that suggests all religions, ideas, philosophies, and more are all discussing the same thing.

Cristina: Really? What?

Jack: One of the most important lessons of perennialism is that all planes of existence overlap and coexist in a traversable fashion, although not always physical. We sometimes say spirit, we sometimes say this, we sometimes say that. But the idea is that we kind of know it's all somehow connected.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: This is trying to explain in a functional fashion how it is. What do you mean, bro?

Cristina: Is this the school we're looking for?

Jack: Oh, we're getting close to something, essentially. It kind of roughly sounds like you'd find what we're looking for here.

Cristina: Yes, definitely does sound something like that.

Jack: Like we're in the right track, right? That's great. Fantastic. Okay, so thanks to these two random guys, we find the Aristotle is actually who we're looking for. Aristotle happens to have knowledge that he's taken to the school, but his knowledge doesn't seem particularly impressive. He just sounds like he's teaching casual things because he explained the knowledge he's taking in, his contributions. None of it was like, wow, you've got powers. We're going somewhere where the smart people would be, the people who are the elites would hang out. So let's dig deeper into Aristotle. Right? Let's dig deeper into, in fact, where Aristotle's hanging out outside of the school. No, who's around Aristotle? Who is. What is this school? Okay, so we focus then on Lyceum, and prior to Aristotle, teaching at the school, there were several notable individuals to come through and establish themselves. Individuals like Protagoras, Plato, and Socrates all came through this same school, studied and taught at different times.

Cristina: Okay, Are they all important? Maybe. Maybe not.

Jack: Not a clue.

Cristina: Is the school important?

Jack: You know what I know? Everything you have is what I have.

Cristina: Learning about the Elysians in school, I.

Jack: Don'T know what they're learning. Right. This is crazy, because we got a couple of complicated minds hanging out all in the same place. Some of the most advanced minds, and we're talking to everybody we've mentioned, doesn't seem to stand out in any great fashion other than they were significant people, but they were significant for commoners. We still don't know any of these individuals that have done anything particularly impressive. So so far, we don't. We don't even have, like, potential individuals, but we might Be where we need to be.

Cristina: I don't know.

Jack: I don't know. I don't know. I got nowhere else. We came to the school. Nobody. I looked at these guys. Nobody was impressive. Nothing mattered. Nothing stuck out. And really with Aristotle, other than him being the connection to the school that we followed, nothing stands out.

Cristina: No way. Really.

Jack: None of these individuals in any particular fashion. But we can just keep following this, right? So the school was originally started. Now, this is where just following the school because the people didn't matter. So now it's crazy.

Cristina: The people didn't matter.

Jack: But okay, colossal names. How the h*** did not one of them stand out in some fashion? Okay, but names immediately started standing out. The school was originally started by what seems to be referred to consistently as an elite Greek named Apollo. Apollo Lysias, which is described in many texts as a Greek God. We're familiar with this guy. Okay, we're quite familiar with this guy.

Cristina: Familiar with this guy.

Jack: Now, Apollo, according to a lot of mythology, is a Greek God. Mythology says he's a Greek God, but our data says he's some dude who did some science y things with a bunch of other high society nerds. He's a high society nerd. I guess, kind of. That's what we're talking about. A lot of time. A bunch of high society nerds.

Cristina: They weren't disturbing, though.

Jack: They were doing. A lot of these guys were just Tucker from freaking Full Metal Alchemist.

Cristina: Yes. Yes, they were. They're doing some horrible, horrible things. But okay.

Jack: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Cristina: He was part of that group.

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: And Paula was one of them. He was part of those guys. We know that they had Naga trying to make Naga. We know they had weird. They were willing to do odd experiments on themselves and. I don't give a. These guys were crazy, bro. And so they turned out to be way more op than we thought. As you know, we ignored them for super long, diverted into other. We thought they were.

Cristina: They made Nagas.

Jack: Yeah. Until we're like, holy. Wait, we gotta focus on the morphine.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: You guys got a couple of things going on that we didn't catch at first. We just thought again, whack people. Because they're not directly trading. I mean, they're literally only trading. But they're not directly friends in the group that we seem to frequent while digging through this data. Deletions. The Mayans, the Egyptians, they. Whoever else they associate with the Greek only seem to be associated through trade.

Cristina: Yes. As far as we can tell. Yeah.

Jack: Yeah. And for. Because of that we thought they were maybe just commoners that these people were trading with. And although the Greek can't seem to track down the Elysians, I don't know that they're trying to. Alternatively, I know that they have tools where they're trying to find things. We showed some of their things where they literally have the ability to track things. But a lot of this was also provided by Jesus, which happened later anyway. So I don't. It's a lot of weird time things happening.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But Apollo, one of the Greek. Now, weird that the school is attributed to being started by a Greek God.

Cristina: Yeah, that's very weird. Okay.

Jack: Pointing that part out just like, okay.

Cristina: That'S the story behind the school.

Jack: That's the story behind it. We all just agree with that one.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: No arguments here. We're just like, yep, but cool. Okay, sure, guys. Lycium is known to have had the first zoo ever.

Cristina: That's weird too. But okay.

Jack: The first botanical garden ever, the two first versions of that ever recorded in history happened to be Elysium. That s*** was just popping with mega science. That was the f****** place it was popping, bro.

Cristina: Kind of crazy, huh?

Jack: Right there in Greece.

Cristina: Bro was when he made the school, it was for normal people or were like the people that were gonna become the gods went to this school that seems.

Jack: The school seems to have started way after the people who are considered the gods.

Cristina: Oh, okay.

Jack: It was way later.

Cristina: Oh.

Jack: So I don't think that those individuals are necessarily associated with the school, others in the school having been. Because one of them is one of the people known as God.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Apollo, the guy who started it, is considered one of the Greek gods. So they must have come first.

Cristina: Yeah. Okay.

Jack: Now, the research performed at the school. So like, all of their information, all their studies dove into facets that would later evolve into biology, chemistry, Earth science, natural science, astronomy, physics and more. So let's establish a couple of things here. And this points at something quite interesting about the Greek that is very identical to the Mayans, as far as we know so far. But I got theories on that for days. And the Egyptians in particular, which is they're all human. They all come from humans to some degree. These are individuals who use other means to reach their levels. Some of them traded, literally, and got tech from these people and came up. The Greeks seem to have kind of gone up themselves, or if they did get help, I don't know. But they're kind of up there too.

Cristina: The gods. Yeah, they're human.

Jack: They seem to all be.

Cristina: Once Upon a time.

Jack: Once upon a time. Human. Unlike the Elysians, that that story seems to come from a different branch entirely. And the mayans that I 100% have theories on what the h*** is going on with that. I believe they like, I don't know why everything else takes place in the same place and they don't. And we'll look into that. A different time.

Cristina: Okay, but you're saying the leash, not the elations. The Mayans, the Egyptians and the Greeks, the gods that we call gods, they came from humans. They're human.

Jack: These are people who either through technology, through some of these means outside of Earth realm, then they become through. Yeah. Or through adrenochrome or similar things, they leave what we understand humanity to be and enter a sometimes literal physical transformation. Sometimes just technologically at such a scale that there's such advantage.

Cristina: What makes I guess necromancers different? Why weren't they seen as gods?

Jack: Because people didn't know about these individuals. I've not once said anybody has even mentioned necromancy yet. No, but it's not mentioned that they don't have necromancy to talk about. That's why these people.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: These people can't be considered something that doesn't seem to be anywhere.

Cristina: Okay. Is necromancy so secretive or something?

Jack: It seems to be more secretive than the Elysians and the Elysians are hard enough to come across.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: We. But we know of many Elysians now after many years of looking.

Cristina: We know many gods.

Jack: Yeah. And we only know three potential question mark necromancers.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: So like they seem to be numerically way. Like we have so many Egyptian quote gods, research team members that we only mentioned some of them because they were the notable ones.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: There were many others that we just skimmed through. That same thing happened with the minds. There were just a bunch of random dudes that we just casually jumped through and same thing with Creek, a bunch of random dudes. Apollo is actually one of them that we just kind of just ran through because they didn't do anything of note at those moments.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Meanwhile, every Elysian we talked about, we needed to focus on because they all seemed important to some degree because they're only like six or seven total we f****** managed to name. That's super secretive. But also that totally aligns because think about most of those teams are built of outsiders.

Cristina: Yeah. Yeah.

Jack: Most of the Elysian team, except for.

Cristina: The main one, I guess the one then their home base or whatever.

Jack: Yeah. We had Jehovah. We had asriel and as just two or three individuals. And then everybody else was an outsider.

Cristina: Oh, yeah.

Jack: And it's like, okay, we don't have a lot of names here. But then we dive deeper, and when we get. We got three named fairies. Four if we include the lady of the Lake, and five if we include Brahma. That is also. So we got all two, three Indian mythology. Four Indian mythology, individuals. And one like a Germanic, not even Arthurian, one. Arthurian mythology. So we have five fairy. Which fairies. Which is maybe two or three lessons. And then even less than that. We got three potential. Everything else we mentioned is confirmed. Yeah, we got three potential. We don't know that they are factually any of this.

Cristina: That's true. Okay.

Jack: That's how elusive this is. They have to be keeping score. They're way more hidden than ever before.

Cristina: There might be three or four, depending on Arthur. Yes. No. No, not Arthur.

Jack: No. Merlin is an agromancer of a fact. It'd be Merlin, it'd be Patrick, and it'd be Nicholas.

Cristina: Jesus.

Jack: Oh, s***. Four. Oh, s***.

Cristina: I'm saying four.

Jack: And. Yeah. So four for a fact. And the teacher that we know, the question mark that we're after. So after we decide if we can track them down, we either have four, which makes them more elusive, or we're tying or starting to tie. Like we're catching up to fairies.

Cristina: What?

Jack: Yeah, I guess it is possible to keep score. Weirdly enough.

Cristina: Still no more fairies because we know the Fairy queen herself and her.

Jack: Oh. And all Rose and all of the Nagas, even if their AI are technically, literally extensions about.

Cristina: There so many of them.

Jack: There's so many. No, you're totally right. Holy.

Cristina: So.

Jack: And we know the elves, even if we don't have them, by names. Yeah, I'm sure. I'm actually sure. That's probably easy to find. I'm just sure they don't do anything significant other than be cool. And they're cool if you're like a geek, essentially.

Cristina: We should find them. No, but I bet something cool.

Jack: I bet there's at least cool stories, even if it's not impactful. Probably done some dope s*** eventually. We'll see. Just when we hit walls, that's usually where I go. And then we find weird things that I wasn't even looking for. But anyways. Yeah, so basically, the. The things that happened at that school. By the way, that school was led by Aristotle for a while. The library there. Yeah, the library there is called the Library of Aristotle.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: So. Yeah. And Mo pretty much all of these signs were advanced by him, and they would all end up becoming all of these different sciences. All these philosophies weren't fantastic.

Cristina: Sounds like school.

Jack: It sounds like school.

Cristina: God made the school.

Jack: Yeah. Other than that weird. And the God didn't do anything impressive. We could just say that that's a weird translation or it was written metaphorically and that the God inspired the school, but they wanted to personify it in a more literal way. Easy to solve that problem. But now we have Aristotle and his library, which means they have a lot of work to go through.

Cristina: With his library.

Jack: With his library. And in one of Aristotle's earliest records, you can find the small notes scribbled on the papaya sheets that he used. And it depicts a conversation he had with his mentor, who's named only in the Greek symbols that look like an A and then an A without the middle part.

Cristina: That's supposed to be something. What's the description again? An A and an A.

Jack: It's an A, a normal A, and then what looks like an upside down V. That's it. Just an A and an upside down V, which is essentially an A minus the little middle part. So I'm like, okay, great. Okay, I run that. And that does translate to ap.

Cristina: What does that.

Jack: Well, jumping Apollo, Lysius back, you get those same initial two letters, which would then translate to ap. So he was talking about conversations he was literally having with Apollo Eliseus, thus debunking the idea that he was talking metaphorically or that he was speaking about being inspired by this God to do the school. He's talking about having conversations with his mentor. Yes. And his mentor is literally, outside of his personal notes, never mentioned by anybody, at least in any popular famous record that exists from any known Greek source related to Greek mythology or Greek history. I looked through as much as I possibly could. There is no mention of Apollo in any instance that makes him look like anything but the mythological individual. Minus. When Aristotle writes about him in which he's talking about him as a real person.

Cristina: Oh, my gosh. Okay.

Jack: Which means Aristotle saw him not as this transcendent individual, but as a sort of equal. That's all we really have to extrapolate from this. He wasn't seeing him as somebody far above. He was like, this is the guy who taught me. This is the guy I look up to.

Cristina: And what did he teach him? Did he teach him anything unique, the.

Jack: Things that he was teaching?

Cristina: Oh, okay. Just normal school stuff.

Jack: Yeah. He was teaching and advancing what he was taught.

Cristina: That is so weird.

Jack: So weird.

Cristina: He was just a teacher.

Jack: He was just. Apollo was a teacher who learned by working with the Greek gods, but taught apparently a guy named Aristotle. And Aristotle then shared his knowledge he got from this high society individual.

Cristina: A weird story. Yeah, such a weird story. I don't understand.

Jack: And Aristotle was considered the high society individual within his circles. So it made sense that people would come to him to grasp the knowledge that he got from the people who are high society in his circles. So he's high society amongst and then in a different circle, he's the bottom and he can see the high society people. And he got from one and took it to the other. Simple.

Cristina: That's cool.

Jack: But then why is Apollo out here just sharing the wealth? Don't this guy feel pretentious? But I guess these do. These individuals do fit the idea we were discussing before.

Cristina: They're all scientists.

Jack: They're not that they're just all sciences, but they're human. Oh, so they have that compassion. And you're always willing to stand up for your people, even if they're the inferior. So it's like, yeah, we're high society, but you know, even if they're way behind, we'll give them something once in a while. And this guy was one of the individuals probably more generous among them. Apollo.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Who decided, yeah, we know a lot. We can share some of the wealth. A kind of Lucifer esque individual. Let's share some. Okay, Apollo and Lucifer. Let's share some. Weirdly enough, Apollo and Lucifer I believe get conflated. I think they're constantly referred to as.

Cristina: A future thing that we talk about. More about Apollo. Let's learn about him.

Jack: Well, he's a weird one, right? Nice individual.

Cristina: Okay. Oh, Apollo. He's the apple. I thought the AV thing was going to lead to an apple for some reason, but. No, but that would have been.

Jack: Yeah, no, no, it related to an. Oh yeah, for sure. There were some individuals even within these other groups willing to share the knowledge. Now. Cool. We, we ground this guy and he's a high society individual. More evidence that he's not a God. Other than the mention specifically we had prior to that and this mention of him, but never have we gotten him mentioned as a mentor and personified simultaneously. This is a first anyways. Additional. Within the same series of notes we could find mentions of a man that apologies had unclear issues with but felt strongly negatively towards as described by Aristotle. In these conversations, AP was having disagreements with an individual whose initials were only J, E.

Cristina: Any idea?

Jack: J E, J E. Yeah. So I tried a lot of things, and running a search for all names written in Latin that fit these initials, we find that it's surprisingly rare, which kind of makes it pretty easy to track down because there isn't a lot.

Cristina: Okay, is it a familiar name?

Jack: No, because I don't read Latin, and in this case, it's Be. Latin and Greek are kind of really closely tied. So this is essentially what we're looking at.

Cristina: I'm not sure what I'm looking at.

Jack: This is the name that I landed at after I ran this search that required these two initials. I'll explain why in a backwards fashion. Hold it. It's yours.

Cristina: This random gibberish name?

Jack: Yeah.

Cristina: It looks insane.

Jack: So for the sakes of what we're discussing, all of this is going to be discussed in the Greek context that I've just given to you. Now, again, few individuals share these initials, and one name sticks out, which is.

Cristina: That name, but it's J. E. Something like that.

Jack: Yeah. So I run that through a translator, and I get Jehovah God.

Cristina: No, you don't.

Jack: I do. I get Jehovah God. Now, that means they're also referring to just the Elysian Jehovah, but as the way they would refer to the Greek gods, those people way above us.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: So it just comes out as Jehovah God. He still sees Jehovah as above Apollo.

Cristina: Yeah, he's calling him God.

Jack: He's calling him God as opposed to Apollo. Except I know looking at that, you could tell kind of Eloi is being translated into Jehovah, because Eloi seems to be used as Yahweh, and this kind of looks like Eloi. You see the E. You see the weird random character we're not sure of. Then you literally see Oy. I'm like, okay, I see that happening here. So this is being translated into Jehovah because I know that Yahweh, the father of Jehovah, Eloi, and which is the grandfather, and Jehovah, which is the son of Yahweh, get consistently conflated one with the other. You know, they're always.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Interchangeable.

Cristina: So you think this is not the right.

Jack: No, I think this is translating. This is what we're getting Jehovah for. So then what's the first part of this? It doesn't look like Jehovah or Eloi. This is something else. Right. So this one is being translated the God, I thought. So I decided to run them individually instead of as a name.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: The first part, rather, the second Part is in fact Loi. Literally, it is Eloi.

Cristina: So you thought.

Jack: Yeah, no, that's accurate. The first part is Jehovah.

Cristina: Jehovah Eloi.

Jack: Think about that really hard, real quick. Think about it really hard, really quick. It makes way more sense than you might think. And we did not put it together. And it's gonna. It by default answers an entirely different question that we couldn't put together because we are apparently f****** stupid.

Cristina: What is that?

Jack: You want the answer? You want to try? You want a moment? It's important. It's really important.

Cristina: Is it obvious?

Jack: It's so obvious. But I couldn't see it either. The problem is it's so obvious it's invisible. It's that problem.

Cristina: It's so obvious.

Jack: Even the f****** listeners, once I explain it, are going to be like, holy s***, how did none of us see? Makes so much sense. Say it out loud. Just say once.

Cristina: Jehovah. Eloi.

Jack: What's happening there? Okay, I'mma clarify very easily. It's a first and last name. Now think about it. Does this answer anything for you?

Cristina: They're related. No, I don't know.

Jack: God, I hate that I have to explain some of these really obvious. That should have clicked it. Okay, let's string this back.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: We thought Loi was living a long time because of him being way the h*** over there and him being way the h*** over here in two totally different times. We also eventually thought maybe hello. I is actually a title of some sort.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: It'S a title. It's a last name. It's a family last name. Yeah, it's Yahweh Eloi. It's Jehovah Eloi.

Cristina: Because it's a title.

Jack: It's a title. It literally wasn't.

Cristina: So you found out that what we thought was right is right.

Jack: Not only what we thought was right, but literally what the title meant. It's a family lineage last name meaning through Eloi alone, we could find out what other thing they would attach to the word Eloi and land at different people from within the same lineage. We can track his entire family history because it's anybody who's labeled as Eloi in both spellings of Eloi and Elohim.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Holy s***. We just have a way now.

Cristina: The track is family tree track.

Jack: Jehovah and his biology we can follow.

Cristina: Okay, but the person we're following right now is Jehovah.

Jack: This right now just tells us that it's Jehovah that AP was having a problem with. And AP was the Greek Apollo Okay.

Cristina: That's such a crazy story. Okay.

Jack: Yeah. So this actually serves into not only clarifying the fact that we were essentially right about the title. The title, but a previous problem that we'd run across is confirmed here, too, that the Greek and the Aletians did not get along. There was always conflict one way or another.

Cristina: They tried real hard to work together.

Jack: They were courteous.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: But did not like one another.

Cristina: Yeah. Is there any hints of what it was, that they were having a problem?

Jack: No, he doesn't specify, other than he was more focused on the mental state of his mentor and how, like, this guy brings him emotional distress. Which just goes to show that whatever Jehovah God, or now, as we know, Jehovah, Eloi of the Eloi family lineage, see, we just know that that guy probably was just real oppressive in a way that Apollo couldn't do anything about. I mean, literally, in the context that he words him, the word that is being tossed in seems to be God. I don't know if now that makes sense, because it could have just been the guy's last name. It literally is the guy's last name, or he's also considering their entire last name was built around the word God. Like, they didn't build that, but rather the word God got extrapolated from those people. I think so, like, literally. It's not that Eloi means God. No, it's that God means Eloi.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Like that's where it began.

Cristina: I think so.

Jack: Yeah. That's what I'm thinking. That's why I think that translation happened. And this will. This would make so much sense because, again, the way he described the initials are weird. That was the weirdest part, because when you throw it and you get Jehovah God, this doesn't work. Initials, bro. You put it in initial form. That's weird. That's a full name.

Cristina: Yeah, you put it.

Jack: But then you run it and you get two different names we were sure were names. If you run them individually, they are Jehovah and Eloi.

Cristina: It has to be a family thing or not family. It could be a title. Still could.

Jack: Yeah, it could be a title within a family or within Elysians, but it's at least connecting a series of individuals that at least three of them we know are within the same family or are at least within the same line of work. That would afford them the title.

Cristina: Yes. Yes, that could be most likely it.

Jack: Yeah, that could also be it. I guess.

Cristina: They don't necessarily work the same as us. They don't have Names the same as us. Like we have a name. Or maybe just like maybe they could.

Jack: They're still earthlings. They're still intelligent individuals. And it's an easy way to distinct.

Cristina: Between our last names. Was our jobs originally.

Jack: I mean our last names. Yes. But we were the invention of a last name comes as a imitation of something. What were we imitating?

Cristina: Yes. So the gods had to have.

Jack: They had last names we were imitating.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Even Apollo had Alesias as his last name. And he was just the Greek God in the very text that give him a last name. Which doesn't make sense. It breaks the idea that he's a God if he has a last name.

Cristina: Interesting.

Jack: Except he's a dude who taught you stuff, talked to you personally and you refer to him by first and last name. It's like, come on, bro.

Cristina: That's a guy who his frenemy was or whatever.

Jack: Like these people are grounded.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: They seem to exist. So again, either we found a way to track a bloodline or at least a line literally now connecting that we can use to find other individuals from within the same line. LOI from 3.5 million years ago must have had a first name.

Cristina: Yes. That couldn't.

Jack: Was not it. He had a first name and we literally have just not stumbled upon it.

Cristina: Or it was. And he was the first.

Jack: Or he was the first.

Cristina: He was the first and everyone took it after him.

Jack: Yeah. Because of the big impact he had.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: It's significant to go after his name. He's Link. You might not literally be Link.

Cristina: Oh my God.

Jack: But you're now gonna assume this identity because it's your destiny to fulfill the role of Link.

Cristina: The church. You're the chosen one.

Jack: You're the chosen One.

Cristina: Really? It's not really. That works. Okay. Whoa.

Jack: To clarify, this in no way connects us to our necromancer. This is just other unrelated fascinating information that just happened to pop up as a result of trying to find a necromancer.

Cristina: Random. Are we ever gonna find them?

Jack: Big top dogs are at least in the vicinity of the people who would have access to necromancers. For a fact. This all checks out.

Cristina: Still nothing about necromancy.

Jack: Still nothing. Things that in looking through this information we come up with is actually that the term see people is a slur. It is used offensively to talk about the Elysians. That is the reason that exists. Sea people is a way to say f****** people from over there. Those m************. That's essentially what sea people translates to.

Cristina: To Them because they don't like them.

Jack: Because they don't like the se people.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: That's always been a slur term. And we did that now. Okay, so our apologies, guys, I guess.

Cristina: That's so weird.

Jack: Yeah, but makes sense. It makes sense. It makes sense because why would they be the courteous ones? They're the only ones referring that way consistently. The only other mentions were people who also had conflict. Okay. It checks out.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: It's fair.

Cristina: That makes sense.

Jack: Okay, Makes sense now. Now, one other figure is mentioned in Aristotle's notes.

Cristina: Are you giving me another initials?

Jack: No, this guy just kind of shows up in full name.

Cristina: Really?

Jack: Hermes Trismegustus.

Cristina: Awful. Okay.

Jack: Which is often described in the notes as wandering the halls of the facility. And Hermes Trismages, if you do not know, is a legendary Greek figure, oftentimes associated with the Greek God Hermes and oftentimes associated with the Egyptian God Thoth, which. Thoth is actually one of the members of the sun gods. Yeah. And Hermes is one of the members of the Egyptian of the Greek gods. Just another casual one. We just.

Cristina: This is not a God.

Jack: This guy's not a God. This is just a dude.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: This guy is just a dude. Now, about this dude. All this other data I've looked at, and let me tell you how this guy is put in the paper. He's written in two occasions as one, awaiting his private students. Casual, two, awaiting the pass. Sacred, hidden or private knowledge. He's the one teaching private things within the school. That's all ready for selective children.

Cristina: Okay, okay. Okay.

Jack: Now this makes it seem like Hermes was a literal individual in the school who himself was conducting research but teaching individuals. We know his impactful things that provided literal hermeticism. He's credited with developing hermeticism and the hermetic principles.

Cristina: Wait, he's that guy.

Jack: He's that guy.

Cristina: He's that guy. No. Okay.

Jack: He's that guy.

Cristina: He's that guy.

Jack: He's that guy. Now it makes a lot more sense, right? He's that guy.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: It becomes a kind of like. Well, I guess we could have started there if we thought about him and like, worked back and probably got into where we were going real quick because, like, yeah, that's kind of on paper. Literally what you would need to know in or that's his beliefs given for the general public. We wouldn't know how to apply it in a way that we could use it. But he's essentially telling us an easy way to think about what necromancy is. Oh, if everything is one, you could traverse any part of it. All sides are connected, so you could move seamlessly between these states.

Cristina: Oh, crap.

Jack: Like all of this is just discussing f****** necromancy. It's necromancy. Necromancy for dummies. And the hermeticism as we know it is her necromancy for dummies. Understand it. Meanwhile, he had a way of teaching people how to use it, and that's what you went to that. So he would teach both things, his hermeticism and deep hermeticism, which was necromancy. It was Hermes Trismegistus. He was the necromancer.

Cristina: No way. But do we know if any of his students actually became necromancers at that school?

Jack: We don't know. The only mentions of actual necromancy that we have are all assumptions. And it's because they fit the suit, not because they were literally other than Merlin.

Cristina: That seems to be. We don't have any stories of him doing anything. Necromancy like, well, we got to focus on him.

Jack: We were just looking for him.

Cristina: He has the knowledge, though. That's crazy.

Jack: Yeah, we got him.

Cristina: We got.

Jack: We got who I think it is. If he ain't in, at least this is the road. I told you. Just getting here. We have run out of time just getting to him. We ran out of time, man.

Cristina: That was shocking. That's more. That's. That's so crazy.

Jack: I mean, it's not even secret knowledge that's just out there. He really just published a public version of the thing, and it's literally the lessons he was trying to teach privately. So it was. It's not even that hard. It's. Here's the information. If you get it, you'll come find me, and then I'll teach you the deep s***. It's not even that crazy. It makes perfect sense.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Hence the exoteric and the esoteric. If you get the exoteric, come find me. I'll teach you the esoteric if you want it.

Cristina: Nice.

Jack: And it's like, oh, s***. It's not even that hidden, bro. It's just hard. And nobody's gonna do it. And so the three guys who did we know about and maybe some others, but, like, maybe not. And like, maybe it's so hard, only once every couple hundred years some dude makes it because also he will be f****** immortal.

Cristina: But like, so he's immortal if he's the teacher. If he's the teacher.

Jack: If he's the teacher, he's immortal.

Cristina: Okay, yeah.

Jack: Us no longer Hearing about him has nothing to do with him necessarily dying.

Cristina: No, because we know Jesus was having F names. And.

Jack: Yes, it's. Exactly. This even brings the question, in theory, if we actually know Merlin is dead. Like, weird. Like, that happens because the more we know about necromancy, the less likely that becomes.

Cristina: Okay, that makes awesome, you know? Yeah. He might not be dead.

Jack: Like, he might not be dead. They have this ability to just, like, poof. And now you're just gone. All of them do. It seems.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: So, like, maybe he's just like. That was a close one. This.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: That makes so much sense. Oh, my gosh. Do you know, like, it is what it is. Or maybe he's like, an outlaw or some s***. There's really little on Merlin. Maybe he's an outlaw or some s***. Why isn't he hanging out with Elysians? You're hanging out way the f*** out there, bro.

Cristina: But we know guys that don't want to be part of it. Like that guy in Ireland. What's his name? The one with the trees? He just wants to protect the trees.

Jack: No, he was sent there.

Cristina: Oh, yeah.

Jack: You're talking about Mananan.

Cristina: Yeah, he said. He seems pretty private, though. Besides that.

Jack: That's his job. He's literally building an entire island that they have there so they can continue. His life is surrounded by work. Oh, he's like an elite scientist soldier dude or some.

Cristina: Okay, I guess. Yeah, I guess that's not the same.

Jack: Weirdly enough, I don't actually think he's doing the research there. I think he's the guy protecting.

Cristina: No. Yeah, I think he's just protecting it.

Jack: The people who are doing the research. His job is to overlook. So. But, yeah. Anyways, either way, that's where we are. So we. We got Hermes. And he seems like. Yeah.

Cristina: If anybody, he might be something.

Jack: Yeah. If anything, him.

Cristina: If anything, him.

Jack: Yeah, if anything, him. I don't know who else I'd point at, but, like, that guy. Yes, him.

Cristina: Why?

Jack: He fits that too hard. Hermeticism is essentially necromancy. It's all of the points you need to understand in order to be. Plus Latin, I guess. And know the tech. You need to know these ideas. You need to know Latin. And then I guess the hard part is you must find, learn, and understand how to use the technologies associated with all three realms. That part seems hard.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: He gave you the other stuff.

Cristina: Can we prove he did any of that?

Jack: We can't prove he did any of that. As of me giving this information that we're both Fully updated on to the.

Cristina: That's the end of today.

Jack: Yeah. As of now. No. But he's our next target.

Cristina: Awesome.

Jack: He's the focus. If anybody he's handing out get into him. He's him, bro. He's. He's. He's either him or he's him. I mean, Eloise him as far as we know. But like. No, he would be him if anybody's gonna crap. No, he would be because these guys are more dangerous than freaking the Nesians, bro.

Cristina: Yeah, they are.

Jack: So he is him.

Cristina: He would be.

Jack: He might be him. He might be him. If him isn't from Elfame, him is from Earth Realm. And if. If him is from Earth Realm, he's him. It's him. It has to be him.

Cristina: Yes.

Jack: I don't think we have the ability to produce something more overpowered than a necromancer. As far as we know.

Cristina: As far as we don't know.

Jack: But also, it seems with power scale, crap seems to disappear. And if we're whittled down the four individuals, that means whatever the next power scale is we've not even seen yet.

Cristina: No.

Jack: And when we do, we'll have just one and no.

Cristina: Which is the guy who may or may not have escaped this reality.

Jack: You think he would be above?

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: Why?

Cristina: Because he's in the real world.

Jack: But so are people of Elfame. Fairies inherently are also in the real world. It's not like a feat of accomplishment. And all the necromancers can do that too. He's below everything we just discussed because he also needed all this other to get there. Okay, that's some bottom feeder as compared to the power level jumps we have done.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: We're talking season one, Dragon Ball Z in the Saiyan Saga versus Buu Saga. That kind of gap.

Cristina: Okay.

Jack: Like Yalda. Yeah. He seems scary when Raditz was all we knew about. Now does Raditz seem scary when you see Boo, it's like, no. Raditz is just a dude.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: He could kind of be handled when you think about it in comparison.

Cristina: Mm.

Jack: A well placed backhand by Boo would end Raddus. You know, like, it's okay. That's where we are. Hermes. He's him. We gotta go look at Hermes.

Cristina: Yes. What a name.

Jack: Anyways, I hope this has been informative and enlightening to everybody.

Cristina: That was.

Jack: And it's crazy because it was so obvious that Loi was a last name. We were so close without somebody literally telling us we were so close. But if we didn't say last name. We were that close because we knew a title of some sort. We were so close, it was like an inch away. That's essentially getting it. Except we didn't cross the line. We didn't cross the finish line. But we were there. We were as close as anybody else is getting.

Cristina: Yeah.

Jack: We found out Jehovah's last name is Loi and that all the mentions of Loi are just some title or last name. The end. That's it. Got it.

Cristina: Crazy.

Jack: It's either a bloodline.

Cristina: Now we're gonna find out, though.

Jack: Study. Yeah. Those are two things we gotta look at deeply. We gotta look at. Well, three things. We gotta look at Hermes, we gotta look at Apollo. And we have to look at the Loi title itself.

Cristina: That's a lot of crap.

Jack: Three important. Well, two important and one curious thing, which is Apollo. I don't think that's necessarily relevant, but that's just interesting.

Cristina: Yeah.
