Lost Souls (11): Zoom . . . not

After all that anticipation I find myself in the moth room . . . stuck again. My progress in the game is at about the rate of the two creatures pictured above.

There is a puzzle here. I know there is a puzzle here. I know there is a clue. The question is, what is the puzzle, which clue, and what does it mean? I've learned that Boakes leaves clues--usually pretty good ones, but you have to interpret them properly. I find them. I just don't seem to interpret them properly. The can 'n bones puzzle is a good example, and the TV puzzle and the video puzzle. The clues on the walls in that room now are gone--so they must have been clues to the video puzzle which I just sort of stumbled through.

But, I went through the freakin' huge hole in the freakin' wall and now I find myself in a room filled with moth chrysalises dangling from the ceiling and some pictures of moths in various stages of mothic life. To get through the door I need another inventory item. No doubt I will receive it once I solve the moth puzzle (or, I will blow another freakin' huge hole in the freakin' wall). But what is the moth puzzle?

I think this puzzle must be like the video puzzle--just choose the different pictures in the right order. One of the pictures must be the clue--two of them are possibilities for that role. Of added interest is that when I turn off the lights the chrysalises glow. When I grab one it opens up and I find an undeveloped, red, pulsating thing that matches the thing in the sink in the ladies room outside the station. So now I know what that thing is. I went back there, but there's no change in that location.

I have looked at those pictures dozens of times in different sequences. It makes sense that I should follow the development of the moth--but so far nothing has worked. I've scoured the room. I'm confident that I haven't missed anything. I had lots more time for playing today, but have made essentially zero progress.

It just doesn't work. Probably I haven't tumbled to what the real puzzle is.

Well, I'll be gone shopping tomorrow. Maybe by Wednesday some possible solution will pop into my head.
