These 5 words might mean that we need to arrange fragments of flowers and then reverse search result using something like http://tineye.com. No luck yet

I tried a few things in photoshop but havenât been able to find anything meaningful yet. Iâll post my attempts here in case anyone can find some significance that I missed.
Here is an album of my attempts rearranging the flowers and overlaying them on top of eachother: http://imgur.com/a/Sf8WU
I also overlayed the corrupted page with the gaps that Michael posted over the original in case it revealed anything, but the resulting words donât seem to make any sense.

Nice work, PK. I found this piece of it on a few sites as well:

I havenât been able to find any source for the flowers yet. Maybe they are unique? It does seem odd that only one corner has no flowers at all, especially when one of the 5 words is âflowersâ.

Guys guys guys guys guys!
We did it! So, something about the âflowersâ in the corners of the page kept nagging at us, right? And then Cam put them together into that very pretty image. So I decided to play around with it it photoshop but couldnât get anywhere. I arranged them the way Cam did, thinking that it looked like thatâs how they were supposed to go. Very pretty, but nothing was jumping out at me. And then I thought, why not try a google image search?
The first result was a link to a French cooking show. But, the nextâŚ
A Tumblr post titled âIâm not the only thing that changed.â !!!
Itâs called a Fraylily! I have no idea who the poster is yet, but she said she saw it in a dream. That Tumblr page is a rabbit hole just waiting to be explored. But thatâs not the kicker.
So, Fraylily. What a cool word. I thought it might be an anagram or that the letter were a key to the corrupted pages somehow. Unfortunately, nothing. I searched google and didnât come up with anything there. So I thought Iâd go back through the forum and refresh my memory about what everyone has seen and mentioned, wondering if I missed something. Thatâs when I saw that Andy noticed how something looked like a URL. So after several failed ideas, I eventually went to the Book of Briars and added /fraylily at the end of the url.

So go, check it out and see!
Well done everyone! We found the first fragment!

I canât take credit for this. If it wasnât for Camâs photoshop skills and Andyâs insight, I never would have found it. This is definitely a team effort and I think that these forums will be indispensable going forward. Where we can collate our ideas and collaborate on finding the clues we need. And with more people joining to help, the easier it will be. Great job everyone!
Only fifteen more to go!
