As was stated in our main letter, Agent Ariel's cryptex is locked with a password.
The only clue we have is: «5 places filled with good memories».
We proceeded to a thorough study of all her documents and writings, and we noticed that she left small encrypted clues in her most "casual" entries of her diary.
Here is the situation as we understand it after decrypting the hundreds of clues she left:
Out of the 6 documents, 4 describe a place, of which the first letter will be used for the password.
However, you will need all 6 documents, because the 5th letter seems to be different.
The 5th letter does describe a place. But none of the 6 documents describe that last place directly.
We came to understand that the last place can only be found via GPS coordinates.
The 6 documents will lead you to 6 different places.
In each of them, you will have to gather numbers using the clues left in the documents (we will highlight them for your convenience).
After visiting these 6 places, you will have:
Here are the final coordinates that will lead you to find out the last letter of the cryptex password:
AB°
CD'
EF"
N,
G°
H'
IJ"
W
And this is the key to decrypt the location:
A = L3_h - L3_c
B = L6_c
C = L5_d - L5_b
D = L2_a - L2_e
E = L1_a - L1_b
F = L4_d + L4_h
G = L5_j
H = L1_a
I = L6_j
J = L4_c - L4_g
L1, L2, etc. are the different locations you will have to go to, in the order you go. L1 refers to the first location, etc.
_a, _b, _c, etc. are always digits, related to the information you find at that location.
So for example, L2_b will be one digit, extracted from a larger number, which could be "abcd" or "ab:cd".
Where possible, we have left you with the clues that were available to us.
