The maps have continued to haunt us. There are apparently thirty locations. They are situated all over the planet, on each continent. Because they seem to be in a numbered sequence, perhaps there is a narrative to this puzzle or message. The source of the maps continue to be a mystery. What the shaman did tell us is that the maps have been handed down to various shamans over many generations. My whole life has been a series of pointless projects and encounters without passion and a stillness of certainty. Altsushi and Kenji have also felt the linearity of their scientific thinking challenged.
