Hoo-boy who’d of thunk lookin’ for a tiny little stone in a whole city would be like finding a needle in a haystack. I reckon if the stone is still here, what’s the odds some random tourist type picked it up years ago and put it in their little rock collection, what have you? I mean, here’s the thing, I appreciate what Abner’s done, right? These little rocks ain’t something you’d want getting’ into the wrong hands. So it makes perfect sense to want to squirrel ‘em away somewhere safe and out of sight. But bless his heart, he didn’t <b><i>WRITE DOWN WHERE HE LEFT IT!</i></b>


I mean, the other Langleys just had it on them. Though I suppose when you’re up north, ain’t much point in hiding it away. Especially if you’re spending your time sippin’ on coffee with cream. Who’s gonna try and take if from them? Exactly, no one. At least No. 26 had the smarts to keep his in a vault. A vault which, mind you, he had the combination to <b><i>WRITTEN DOWN.</i></b> I mean, I’d have been shocked if an Actuary like him didn’t keep some sort of meticulous records.
I think I’ve cracked it!


Now you must be wonderin’ why I’m tugging at your ear here. Or, uh, eyes, seein’ as you’re probably reading this. I’ll tell ‘ya the truth; I’m just tired of lookin’ for that dang stone. So, I’m making myself look right busy here on this CaDCom. I also guess just to let everyone know, we haven’t found Abner’s stone yet too. Makes me wonder, if each stone is tied to a celestial body and/or plane, what planet is everyone? I reckon Solomon’s got the Sun. No. 26’s got the Otherside, no doubt. Enoch and Antionette strike me as Mercury and Venus. And I bet you Abner got saddled with the Moon.
“Take a leap and look to the stars. There you’ll see II for the first time. Under the cradle of the Archons.”


Alright, alright, I gotta get back to looking now. <i>Pray for us.</i></span>
Passaic, New Jersey, July 1952. That’s where the stone is hidden! Not, like, in time. Sorry, that was probably confusing. I mean, in July 1952, there was a UFO sighting in Passaic, New Jersey. 1952 was a LEAP year, and it was also the year in which Elizbeth the II took the throne. I’m guessing “Archons” is like aliens, and the cradle is their ship. Now I see where No. 2 gets his weirdness from. It’s genetic. Abner seems… fixated on the concept of “Archons,” and I’m not entirely sure if he’s talking about the gnostic thing or the Greek thing, or maybe even just the butterfly thing. Who knows? As far as I can tell, it’s not the name of a constellation or a star.
 
So, I am pretty sure that Abner Langley’s stone is buried in George Stock’s yard, where he took his somewhat famous UFO photos. Unfortunately, I have not had the best of luck nailing down the exact spot by searching on the internet. However, Passaic, NJ, is not terribly big. I’m sure we could find it in a few days if we gathered up the team. I am a little worried that it’ll lead to another riddle once we get there because that seems like something Abner would’ve done.
 
Even if there are more clues, I’m hoping just being near the stone should help Abner remember where it is. From what I’ve heard, he’s supposed to be an Augur like No. 1, No. 6, No. 1313, and No. 161. Not only that, but he’s also allegedly one of the best Augurs currently alive in the Flipside. I guess the better at second sighting things you get, the weirder you get. I mean, No. 1313 already speaks in rhymes, and No. 161… well, she’s ours, and that’s what matters.</span>

“Take a leap and look to the stars. There you’ll see II for the first time. Under the cradle of the Archons.”

Passaic, New Jersey, July 1952. That’s where the stone is hidden! Not, like, in time. Sorry, that was probably confusing. I mean, in July 1952, there was a UFO sighting in Passaic, New Jersey. 1952 was a LEAP year, and it was also the year in which Elizbeth the II took the throne. I’m guessing “Archons” is like aliens, and the cradle is their ship. Now I see where No. 2 gets his weirdness from. It’s genetic. Abner seems… fixated on the concept of “Archons,” and I’m not entirely sure if he’s talking about the gnostic thing or the Greek thing, or maybe even just the butterfly thing. Who knows? As far as I can tell, it’s not the name of a constellation or a star.

So, I am pretty sure that Abner Langley’s stone is buried in George Stock’s yard, where he took his somewhat famous UFO photos. Unfortunately, I have not had the best of luck nailing down the exact spot by searching on the internet. However, Passaic, NJ, is not terribly big. I’m sure we could find it in a few days if we gathered up the team. I am a little worried that it’ll lead to another riddle once we get there because that seems like something Abner would’ve done.

Even if there are more clues, I’m hoping just being near the stone should help Abner remember where it is. From what I’ve heard, he’s supposed to be an Augur like No. 1, No. 6, No. 1313, and No. 161. Not only that, but he’s also allegedly one of the best Augurs currently alive in the Flipside. I guess the better at second sighting things you get, the weirder you get. I mean, No. 1313 already speaks in rhymes, and No. 161… well, she’s ours, and that’s what matters.
