The Quest To Find Raxxla

[CMDRCorrMorningstarFelian]

Yep! Insight into the quality control that has been exercised!
Evidence:
LTT 2771 is supposed to contain the Smuggler’s Junction pirate asteroid base from AHTW, but not an asteroid in sight in that system in-game!! Also planet 1 is Tarlak...but Tarlak is supposed to be “the garbage planet” in CD-73 253. However CD-73 253 in-game has no planet, even though its system description explicitly discusses it having the garbage planet! Was this a Friday afternoon after a pub lunch job?

I rest my case m’lud!
It’s very heavy

I have a feeling implementation of custom data for the pre-release books were not first priority, in the rush to get Gamma / 1.0 out.

Raxxla was worth fighting for to the point that like Mars Artifact/Duval Relic that conflicts follow anyone or anything that gets close. The rumors started more than a millennium ago. We are told it is controlled by a cabal. Why exactly is there so much blind trust in those narrating the story? What if those telling the story are fundamentally untrustworthy? The writers of history after all are the victors.

Trust but verify does wonders for detection of false or misleading narratives. Also, do you understand how much of the story might be propaganda? There is such a thing as doubting the narrator but believing the story (at least partly).

I think you’re right on that, but I’d have thought such silly mistakes would be corrected as soon as the game came out. UNLESS these are, by some very strange thinking, actually clues!

Even a believable lie has to be partly true. All light cast shadows. The shadows will mostly be true to form as they are based on something real. They are proof of the existence of what you seek. The inaccuracies are intentional and intended to throw people off the trail. Technetium was a big one as was brown dwarfs. The two are only found together in specific places. Raxxla itself is less of the reason for the misdirection. Most of it was based on events of "First Thargoid War" (written that way very intentionally) and the ensuring cover-up. We actually have very little reason for Raxxla to not be an open secret (other than the connection to events of "First Thargoid War").

We only had our first Elite combateer in the 3100s despite Pilot's Federation existing since 2805. How the heck do you think a single person won an interstellar war between species?

Except we have information from FD to state (at that time) it was not textual, that it had substance and could be found by anyone, many times.

Now conceptually it’s as equally likely all of the statements by FD could be about a narrative element. It’s just a question of semantics.

Example: DB initial statement to Drew ‘could’ have been about future content. As DB has used this language in another instance, during pre-alpha to describe content not in game at that time. We only have Drew’s interpretation of events. Again DB ‘silly’ statement can be interpreted differently, some think he’s addressing us, some think he was addressing his employee. Contextually all of MB and AT statements could equally be interpreted as narrative - ’nothing to say at this time’ -‘the pay off ought to be huge’…semantics.

But there exists counterintuitive information to the contrary, to confirm it’s accessibility. Some of which is suspiciously difficult to locate, dubious origin, or has been intentionally erased.

Combine this with the very public statement in the form of the existence of the Codex, and their own denial when questioned directly to affirm if the codex is just ‘flavour’, especially their public facing support team, then there is an assumption more towards something certainly being out there, at most you have information which has a reliability of 50/50.

One has to believe that Raxxla is in game and is currently accessible, for your own personal journey.

Assuming there is no childrens book and all we have is the Title to see the cunningly concealed facts - assuming we have the eyes for it….

“These details however, were later shown to bear a striking resemblance to children's story Princess Astrophel and Spiralling Stars, and soon lost credibility.”

Bear a Striking - Ursa Major Minor myth

Remember when the winking cat made a space station at the true north? Maybe we need to spend more time looking up

Not perfect but it answers most of the clues- ties in princess astrophel to the spirling stars and music of the spheres along with the omphalos … and points us back to the obvious pole star

The traditional pole star is however narratively locked, as confirmed by FD.

The stars don’t spiral however, they rotate around the imaginary axis (eg from our perspective), spinning yes, spiralling. mmm.

Again semantics. What are spiralling stars?

The galaxy is a double spiral but those stars although they look like spiral move relatively, not inwardly.

Pulsars, star’s general don’t spiral, they rotate and emit energy, black holes rotate and consume energy, binaries may rotate but some do spiral towards each other, in some cases one eats the other and the matter spirals towards it… then you have poetic license.

Delphi is close to the Pleiades. The Pleiades have been described as the spiralling stars… who knows, I am genuinely interested to break this description down and see how it can applied.That phrase in the Codex is the key. It means something.

Helice is also the Greek name for willow an often twisted and spirally plant. Helix of course being a spiral. The choice of name Helice for ursa major as it twists around the axis is apropo. Spirals and rotations are just dependant on your point of view.

As to the locked nature of polaris - i dont know - maybe its the dark wheel location. And we still havent figured out how to get the invite…It certainly fits the jewel on the brow description.

After thinking about this - i like polaris as the dark wheel location. The dark wheel i believe is just a poetic name for the wheel of fate/ the turning stars… what better place than the hub….

I posted the book the other day , it predates the release of the codex by a month , after reading it , I'm very certain Raxxla near or in sol. or Its the start point.
If you look to linclon station , and watch very closely you will see a moving star. in sorounding systems you can see orbiting stars. You need to time lapse capture it . I think its a bug , but would have been cool. I never got a final response after messaging a few Fdev crew. I also emailed the author , but never got a response.

Interesting - When I first saw this i thought it was more recently produced. If the published date is as it says December 2012 then it came out during the Kickstarter for Elite. The codex didnt come out until the Beyond Chapter 4 Beta which i think was Oct 2018.

A nice idea but the book unfortunately predates the codex by some considerable time.

Also I would presume if ‘Princess Astrophel’ was a real book the author would either be Michael Brookes (is it his unpublished The Space In-between or the un-named children’s story referenced in Elite Legacy by Brookes) or even Allen Stroud or at a stretch some reference to Holdstock?

Additionally the wife of the protagonist is named Stella, which follows the Philip Sidney interpretation. ‘Princess Astrophel’ is a female, literally translated as ‘Princess Starlover’.

I still believe the book does not physically exist but is a rather metaphor for some place in game which is acting as a landmark, which when combined with other clues in the Codex, points somewhere, either below the ‘Underworld’ sector or towards Delphi - or even above to heavens gate!

I still feel Brookes unpublished book would be a good fit. It’s a tall order logistically as FD would have had to give some fiscal insensitive to hold back publication indefinitely, this I feel is believable considering his own publishing history and style; although this is pure speculation and from what I can ascertain there are more realistic reasons (don’t wish to speculate out of respect of privacy) why it was never penned. Nether the less such a hypothesis resolves around Raxxla being ultimately narrative.

Considering the construction of the Codex, I’m more inclined to believe it’s a metaphorical clue.

I like the “spiralling stars” implication of “polar”

Omphalos-just found this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omphalos_(book)

But also
I’ve already pointed out many times that a New York Times readers competition named Saturn’s polar hexagonal storm as “Omphalos”

However Uranus was “Father Sky”, not Saturn, and Jupiter was a sky god.
Striking the bear would be Orion the hunter, shown as carrying a club...

Point of all this ramble?
I dont know, the dawn chorus disturbed the dog and then the cat joined in to wake me up far too early. Breakfast coffee has not yet kicked in!


Edit:
Wheel of fate might imply Fortuna, in-game system and goddess, linked to Trinkets of Hidden Fortune, which contain knick knacks & statuettes (&something of value?). AHTW uses a statuette of a god from Grandmort as an important clue...are the statuettes indicative of the treasure within?

Odd that previous searches on Omphaols didnt turn up Bream’s book, but then they didnt turn up the book linked above either. If Bream’s was issued during the kickstarter then it might have impacted the thought processes re Raxxla and its location/nature/disguise....may be worth a read!

Dont think MB’s unpublished Space Between book would be relevant, but Sun Dragon might be-apparently it’s about a trip to Mars.....perhaps shedding some light on the alien artefact? Just bought a copy but not had chance to start reading it.

Edit2: just read the overview of Bream’s book. Clearly we need to get a fringe-matrix-capacitor...anyone got a spare Delorean?
but it revolves around (bad pun intended, I’m tired & grumpy! and off cats!!) the disappearance of Stella......

We should look north. I'm just not sure witch north.

Personally I'm mostly up in Coma Berenices, which is the galactic north. I have no idea if this is the right north. I'm just there because this can be seen in the galaxy map, up there:

Spoiler

There are of course a lot of other poles. The south pole star of Neptune is Gamma Velorum (Regor). That is also a mysterious place.

 

[Rochester]

Again with my tin-foil hat on, in regards to Raxxla somehow being linked to a galactic north, I think it’s still a good fit.

Polaris is an obvious outcome, but ultimately in my opinion if true reduces the quest to nothing more than a narrative gate. It being shut off indefinitely by FD who confirmed there was no accessible permit yet available.

A galactic north would fit in with the back tattoo of M Brookes (RIP), as the end chapter looks to be a heavenly gate, and those who know their Milton understand said gate is in the upper celestial hemisphere.

Brookes narrative in my opinion, looks to marry his own description, describing the discovery or awakening of the older gods, an obvious link to Thargoids I would presume, hence Thargod cult. Then the Guardians are presumably angels, with the gate being the end objective ironically guarded by St. Michael, another Catholic reference to Lucifer fighting Michael…?

This heavenly gate, is if given Brookes interest in John Milton is true and accurate, is likely tied to the model universe described by Milton in Paradise Lost.

Now the entrance to Miltons Heavens gate existed upon the outer rim of the celestial spheres…remember, these were references previously utilised in the now removed DW missions!

Now we have to be aware regards Milton this is not true polar north, as Eden was the centre not our North Pole, and hung from Heaven, so technically Milton north could be anyplace in the upper celestial sphere. I’ve not yet been able to establish where that might be. That’s of course if Brookes was following Milton exactly?

Although Milton was very clear about this model universes dimensions he never pin-pointed exact locations, only the distance between heavens gate and Hells gate is known, being that of three semi-diameters of this great sphere.

‘As far removed from god and light of heaven as far from the centre three times to the utmost pole’ JM

So logically if you know what represents Hells gate in game you should easily find Heavens gate!

However it’s all rather abstract. I’ve tried to utilise these to identify a heavens gate in game, but there are too many ways to interpret these dimensions in my opinion, and I suspect Brookes mixed his source material intentionally, Norse Mythology and H P Lovecraft, so if Brookes had utilised this mechanism it literally could be anywhere, upon the upper celestial sphere.

However in my opinion, when you apply this logic there are some very unusual relationships which do occur, that link back to the Yggdrasil systems. But nothing is definitive.

Thread 'The John Milton conundrum'
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/the-john-milton-conundrum.607684/

In my opinion a lot of the Codex references denote a journey to the underworld, which fits the general narrative of Paradise Lost.

Lucifer first falls from Heaven to Hell, he then mooches around Pandemonium before going to Hells Gate to travel along ‘Sin & Deaths’ Viaduct…a great bridge which traverses the outer sphere. He essentially travels outside the bubble along it’s great circumference.

Lucifer then lands someplace close to the Lymbo of Vanity (Limbo) no location is indicated but it’s suspected to be within the upper celestial hemisphere, could even be on the equator as it’s also indicated he wanders for some time, before seeing Heavens gate upon the distant horizon, burning like a jewel!

‘Satan alights upon the bare Convex of this Worlds outermost Orb; wherewandring he first finds a place since call'd The Lymbo of Vanity’ JM

There is a ‘Limbo’ and ‘Paradiso’ in 17 Draconis, although this location has no clear relation to subjects previously investigated by me, and Paradiso is linked to ‘Dante’ not Milton, although both authors utilised the same descriptive terms of the Silent Spheres, both were very different.

Sadly 17 Draconis is however, in alignment with the path of Jaques. I find this very worrying as its too close to Polaris, which is known to be locked and currently inaccessible by FD who confirmed there is no permit for this system to date, so very likely if this was true it sadly potentially identifies a narrative gate.

The problem with narrative gates, are that we can’t unlock them nor discover anything, and have to wait for FD to turn that page, upon when that did happen, it’s as likely half the galaxy will make the discovery in a matter of seconds. One possible consolation is the controlling faction in 17 Draconis are a player faction, so in my opinion that drives that theory into the dirt. Hopefully we can disregard it.

So ignoring the above horrific thought; ultimately my current hypothesis is we go down, find Hells gate, then something directs us up along some path to the upper hemisphere?

Somewhat related: There is another book on Kindle that I swear must be related to Elite Dangerous that seems to be connected to Daedalus station in Sol and Trueman's Rest in Pi Mensae. The book is called "The Bizarre Journey of Gray Trueman".

I hadn't mentioned it because the author identity is hidden and the book itself seems to have hidden message(s) buried within. I just haven't had time to complete going through it. That and y'all still think I was foolish for attempting to reunify the lore. This isn't the first book I swear was purpose written and possibly even directly commissioned for Elite Dangerous. It is about the only thing that makes sense.

Additionally, you all need to read the lore of Sacra Oculus squadron on INARA at https://inara.cz/elite/squadron-about/9966/ then play Deliver Us the Moon and Deliver Us Mars. I believe the reason the community managers were pushing it hard to the Elite Dangerous community is it essentially expanded lore to Elite (timelines even match).

Here's the book I believe may be linked, his other book (again looks potentially commissioned), and the weird description of the author. These at least used to be available for Kindle.

The Bizarre Journey of Gray Trueman https://a.co/d/7YSYAGp

Everyone wants us dead, but None dared to try." -Gray Trueman

There is something I wish to highlight before you read the Description: The book contains puzzles, codes and hidden messages from cover to cover. If you wish to ignore them and enjoy the story, well... it’s up to you; however, if you choose to solve them, you will decipher the black pages, and if you’re sharp enough, you'll unfold information about some of the characters, future events in the series and real life, other things too. It all depends on you. Here are some hints to help:

1- The symbols on the front cover and black pages are simply Digits

2- The number on Page 11 is Gray Trueman showing how polite he can be

3- The bars on the bottom of the pages are crosswords guideline

4- Some Page Numbers are sitting on One, the rest are sitting on None (not in a dirty way)

Betrayed by the sun's apricity, the infamous Icarus lost his waxen wings, plummeting from the high heavens towards a certain death, however; the injured man was rescued from the trembling bites of the sea by a masked man with a tense, dark aura, Gray Trueman, Gray allowed the Mingan (one who hunts dark creatures) a sanctuary inside his house "The Library of Pamat;" an uncharted place with many bizarre things and beings. But because of Gray's vague and sadistic character, and Icarus' curious and belligerent one, it was hard for the two to get along at first. Eventually, they reached an agreement to join forces against the gods of Olympus, and that was the beginning of the Bizarre adventure of master and apprentice.

Then there's the bio for MF Aidoudi.. (copied from Amazon)

Hello,

I always felt it to be strange seeing authors writing their bio as a second person, therefore, I'll write mine as a first person.

First, I have a long name that many may find it difficult to pronounce so you can call me M;

Writing is one of many passions I have, but I'm confident it's on the top of my list.

I started reading in an early age, then writing when I was 12 (give or take) even the books I recently published, I had them buried with many other for a long time. Thanks to the crisis of Covid, I found the time to rewrite and publish these works, and I will do my best to write and publish the others as well.

As an author, my humble attempt is to offer the book community something new and refreshing in terms of writing style, storyline and structure of books. You will know what I mean when you read my first book. I prefer telling my stories my way, not as a copycat, and I hope all authors do the same. I do believe originality is a risk, giving that most readers prefer a safe and familiar read, but we really need diversity in order for this craft to evolve.

Now, about my personal information. I have a simple philosophy: The less you know about a person, the more you know about his character

This is why I never ask or care for names, ages or professions...

But since you came here and read all this way down, I'll tell you two things about me in the form of two riddles, ready?

1-Day of birth: (Inisde the Orcal's crystal, you can see the first two digits inside a jewel.)

2- My first name: (If you ask a mathematician about my name, he will guess it right the first time.)

Don't hesitate to ask me anything or Email me on: notgraytruman@gmail.com

Thank you for your time, and have a lovely life

Again with my tin-foil hat on, a galactic north would be a good fit.

There are passenger missions out of Robigo (absolute closest human system to Polaris) for "Journey to Sol's True North star". The mission is rep-locked and very, very difficult to trigger. You might have to do a bunch of missions for Sirius Corporation in the Bubble first.

I might as well just say it already: quit being scared of The Club (better known by their two other names Elite Pilots' Federation and The Dark Wheel). Stop fearing the unknown. That which you fear is actually your salvation. Why do you think I ended up switching to A.O.E. Allied Order of Exemplars when Children of Raxxla had proven they were unwilling to make the leap of faith necessary to fix the self-imposed nightmare the CMDRs find themselves in? I have a responsibility to the larger community. I tried showing Children of Raxxla they had a path to peace and getting the Oresrians back via TDW novella. Fear of ourselves and our ability to change things is the single biggest obstacle the CMDRs face. This is why I became a caretaker for the nebulas. They hold our future. The Alliance is working on a better future for humanity in Elite Dangerous.

Thank you for posting this. Purchased it and several others especially Uranophobia as our fellow CMDRs seem to be adverse to turning a self-perceived hell into heaven. Hell doesn't exist at least not in the way our modern society treats it. The underworld is a place of cleansing not eternal punishment. You cannot change the past but you sure as heck can change the perception of it.

Where specifically is that area on the map, if you zoom out a bit? Which system names are we passing over?

To me, that looks pretty convincing, as a "so obvious there are no clues" Raxxla.

It's up in Coma Berenices / Mell 111 Sector, about 300 ly strait up from Sol.

R is from Castor
A is from Capella
X is from Pollux
L is from Sol
A is from Altair

To get the second X, you just rotate the map a bit, to get the X from one of the MEL 11 Sector XP systems.

30 and 31 Comae Berenisces are good starting points.

Edit: 31 is the closest to NGP in RL. 30 is the closest to NGP in ED.
