I received this email from Donnchad.

Almost immediately after writing about Donnchad on the whatweird forum today, I received this email.  There was nothing in the subject line, but it was signed “Your frein and angel, Donnchad”.  

When the moonlight’s on the mountain
And the gloom is on the glen,
At the cross beside the fountain
There is one will meet thee then.
At the cross beside the fountain;
Yes, the cross beside the fountain,
There is one will meet thee then!
I have braved, since first we met, love,
Many a danger in my course;
But I never can forget, love,
That dear fountain, that old cross,
Where, her mantle shrouded o’er her–
For the winds were chilly then–
First I met my Helen,
When the gloom was on the glen.
Many a clime I’ve ranged since then, love,
Many a land I’ve wandered o’er;
But a valley like that glen, love,
Half so dear I never sor!
Ne’er saw maiden fairer, coyer,
Than wert thou, my true love, when
In the gloaming first I saw yer,

In the gloaming of the glen!

    This sent chills down my spine, for a few reasons. First off, my name is Helen, so that’s quite obvious. And secondly, I felt I’ve read this somewhere?

    If… IF you plan on something doing so STUPID as following this person’s (who we know NOTHING about) clues back to Harrow or where ever the hell he is alluding to… please bring someone with you… maybe Sharon… don’t go alone!

  3. Sanctity Says:

    I agree!

    Please don’t worry, Al and Sanctity. I will not follow anything from Donnchad. I honestly don’t have any reason to trust him yet. But I’m glad to have you guys to blow the whistle for me. If I’m ever about to do anything that stupid, please yell at me. Thank you my “freins”. :)

    (PS: start from the bottom and then go up, I spent 5 minutes trying to find it.)

  7. Al (hopefulsemblance) Says:

    He changes the name ‘Leonora’ (his first love), to ‘Helen.’

    Is he invoking the memory of Helen Duncan???

  8. Jessica Says:

    Whilst scrolling down on the website you posted, Kismet, I found a poem called Dear Jack which probably has nothing to do with this and is a coinsidence, but I’d just like to point that out. :)

    This is all confusing, lol. I am unsure as to whom he is indicating with the change of the name to Helen, but I would assume it to be a referrance to Helan Duncan, possibly?
