Yeah, I saw the doubling too and went back to check… it’s very odd

Unless… and I don’t want to really contemplate this too much… but if those are a record of our numbers. Those could have been the ones we lost to the Storm.

It almost looks like years to me, liek the year the book was sent to. But there now a couple that would be in the future…

It bothers me that the numbers went in sequence… until this last set.

Minor correction.
The recent image numbers are 1872, 1887, 1945 and 1951 then 2005, 2070, 2087, 2357, 2359, 2356
The numbers actually overlap between the now page and the latest image. So itdoesn’t go down, just some numbers are twice.

Because I can’t help but put on the old tinfoil one more time 
:
When I originally looked at the numbers you collated above I majorly tinfoiled that maybe we had actually affected the timeline and The Book was now merging or correcting the sequence to represent the changed timeline
But then I looked at the latest illustration again. Here are the numbers I have for the latest image…
1872 1887 1945 1951 1995 2006 2070 2087 2357 2359 2366
There’s still a bit of overlap but if you take another look, they’re actually all the same numbers, which leads me to less dramatically tinfoil that maybe the Book is overlapping because it was either “unconscious” or because it was pulled from another time?
I wanted to be sure that there weren’t different numbers, only overlapping numbers, so I went back through all the fragment with roman numerals, and eliminating the duplicate overlapping numbers I came up with this…
5 18 24 27 44 52 59 88 104 108 182 192 221 267 299 314 323 326 385 394 395 410 435 451 464 537 554 671 919 953 955 981 993 1007 1011 1089 1128 1132 1139 1324 1376 1409 1413 1416 1627 1647 1654 1664 1667 1852 1865 1872 1887 1945 1951 1995 2006 2070 2087 2357 2359 2366
Would someone mind checking my work?

This was supposed to be the end. I’ve had about seven endings in the past 12 months.

It looks right. These appear to be years, atleast that’s what I see. And it looks like, if they are supposed to be our Lodge was a fluke, not even supposed to have the BoB. That actually would make sense how we were able to open the it. A “glitch” or mistake, if you will, in the maqic. Maybe these were the set times the the BoB was supposed to appear. I don’t know, the tin foil hat doesn’t look good on me.

I was supposed to say goodbye. I was supposed to wait for you to wake The Book and get the final word, and then move on with my life.

All things have to end. It’s how you use what you’ve learned from the experience that makes the ending.

But I had too many unanswered questions. Too many things still unresolved. I know what my father was telling me. This wasn’t a riddle. It wasn’t a test. It was just the end.

I went to Orvin Wallace. My father’s attorney. The man who wrote the letter that first brought me to New York. He was surprised to see me to say the least.

I started rattling off things I’d been wondering the past year, how exactly did my father die? How could he have planned so exactly when he’d die, when the Guide would be found, when I would come to the states. How could he be sure I would come at all? What did he see in the Storm that told him his time was coming to an end? What truth did he learn in his last letter? How could an incorporeal council and one man trapped in a park do all of this?

“One word,” he whispered…
“Magiq.”
