On Sept. 12th, another hidden message between Rachel and Malik was found on THF.org.
Enter the message into an online translator to read the message.
“This is not your fault. As you once shouted at the top of your lungs, we’ve all got ‘blood on our hands.’ I just hope my friend is resting easy. Where are you? I’ll need you to meet me in Norway.”

On Sept. 11th Other Girl, like Speaker and Ninja before her recieved a coded message as a part of Rachel and Malik’s correspondance.
After trying all the usual cyphers, gamers eventually figured out that this message was coded using an Octal cypher.
“I knew you were behind that. I just knew. He never told me, you know?
When I hit the ground I was sure I was dead. The camera was broken, they were dragging me to my feet… and then a burst of gunfire in the air. These were SCIENTISTS, unarmed. They hit the ground. But not Mittelwerk. He kept coming until de Zylva turned the shots in his direction. Once Mittelwerk was face down on the ground, de Zylva grabbed my hand and we were gone. With the camera.
He didn’t talk. He said he was de Zylva, that was it. We knew Mittelwerk was already in pursuit, but we stuck to tunnels that had been dug out during various wartimes. We had some close calls. The goal was the American embassy in Colombo, but when we got there, we knew that was impossible. It was being watched — the airport, too. de Zylva said The Hanso Foundation had too much influence in Colombo to take the risk.
And, then, they caught wind of us again. We knew we could be caught at any second, and the only important thing was that video. EVIDENCE of Mittelwerk’s world-wide decimation plot. I’d planned for this. All I needed was a secure, high-speed connection. The Hanso goons knew it too. They surrounded the place while I was uploading. We barricaded ourselves, de Zylva knew an escape route. I barely got out, made my way to a friend of de Zylva’s who could get me to India. I swear, I waited for de Zylva. But he never came.
I’m so sorry.”

On Sept. 9th, Speaker posted the following image on the inside the experience blog.
Gamers flipped the image so that the numbers could be read, and then ran them through a Hex code cypher, which yielded “rewsna ym wonk ydaerla uoy neht era uoy kniht i ohw tuoba gniklat eruoy fi nadjd ot ni llac uoy draeh ti si thgif eht ni uoy gnipeek si ecneicsnoc –m”
Gamers then reversed the message to get: “M–Conscience is keeping you in the fight is it? Heard you call in to DJ Dan. If you’re talking about who I think you are then you already know my answer.”
It became apparent to gamers that this was a secret message from Rachel to Malik, referring to the message that he called into DJ Dan’s live podcast.
UPDATE:
On Sept. 11th, Lost Ninja, like Speaker, recieved a mystery e-mail with a coded message.
BIG props to dante on TLEC for being the first to crack the code. After flipping the image vertically, each letter in the coded message is substituted with the letter to the left of that key on the keyboard.
(shift)R — (shift)I think it’s fair to say, whatever conscience I have was built on faulty equipment. (shift)This is a matter of duty. (shift)Loyalty… (shift)Speaking of which, I’ve been troubled by the very recent disappearance of an old friend, de (shift)Zylva. (shift)We all saw your (shift)Sri (shift)Lanka video. (shift)You were captured at the end, and yet, there you were, blasting those (shift)Lost producers in (shift)San (shift)Diego not a week later. (shift)And, I have to wonder… did de (shift)Zylva have something to do with that? (shift)Do you know what’s become of him?
This is no doubt a reply to Rachel’s message from Speaker’s blog.

The final glyph is found by piecing together the fragments.
Although the order has nothing to do with putting the pieces together, many have noticed that by rearranging the words you find the message “They say that everything happens for a reason. I wish I could believe that.”
The final frag was added to the rest, and completed versions started popping up on You Tube immediatly. This one was posted by thelostfiles.

August 30th, frag code “307L97BDB9″ was found through a link on Rachel’s stophanso blog.
When gamers clicked on the “57” link in the sidebar, a new window pops up with a collage of flashing images. The code is found by working from left to right top to bottom, and taking the letters and numbers from the collage.
