	I find it quite interesting really the image that is being shown. With Vista coming out that is even more secure against piracy, perhaps Microsoft is showing this through VP? Who knows - but that's what the blazon is saying.		I find it quite interesting really the image that is being shown.

			'''SuperRob''''s response ...

			<blockquote>While I'm not an expert in heraldry, one of my uncles is. Calling this a blazon isn't technically accurate. A blazon is a textual representation of a family's coat of arms. It's entirely possible for the visual representation of the coat of arms to change over time, but the blazon, what the crest is meant to represent, should remain more or less static.<br><br>

			However, I think Thalin is on to something. I don't think we're necessarily going to be looking for this exact crest, but one that can be described the same way.</blockquote>

			The image appearing is a blazon. However at this time I can't really give much input as I do not know the colours. But, here is what I do know.

			With the Escutheon of Pretence, with a grappling iron, it is most likely claiming sovereignty over piracy, as the grappling iron was used in naval combat.

			The six feathers are a sign of obedience, however they are docked in certain areas. Count them, the normal seems to be 14, however some have 13 and 12. Until we get more images, we cannot be certain that there are more feathers with more docks. To me, those feathers signifying obedience is pointing out (once the whole picture is available) something to follow.

			I find it quite interesting really the image that is being shown. With Vista coming out that is even more secure against piracy, perhaps Microsoft is showing this through VP? Who knows - but that's what the blazon is saying.

	Here ~~is a picture~~ of the white boxes~~, together with edited versions~~.		Here are the pictures of the white boxes.

	[[~~Mantle Clock]], [[Watch Springs]], [[Airport]], [[Cuckoos]], [[Gears]], [[Starfield]], [[Calendars]], [[Repair Table]], [[Hourglass~~]]

	~~Note~~: ~~The "Gears" white box appears at the begining to the top left of the clock, BEFORE the Gears puzzle appears~~		From puzzle box 2:

	~~The white boxes obviously must be combined to form a symbol of some kind.~~
	~~Researched the internet about two tailed animals. (See the [[Cuckoos]] white box).~~
	~~Can't figure out the [[Mantle Clock]] and the [[Gears]] whiteboxes, they resemble stylisized scorpion members, or wings. Researched "scorpions" and "manticores". Nothing relevant came up.~~
	~~Looked over a lot of symbol related sites. I found none that resemble this one.~~

	I found ~~this on~~ the ~~internet. Not sure if it has any relevance but maybe someone can come up with something~~.		The 36 white boxes must be combined to get a Coat of Arms. Only The first 18 have been found, 9 in the first puzzle box and the other 9 in the second puzzle box.
			Here is the incomplete puzzle:

	~~Two-Tailed Demon Cat~~		[[Image:whiteboxpuzzle.png]]

	~~The two-tailed demon cat Yugito, the demon cat's former host. Note the slanted cat-like eyes.Name: Two-Tailed Demon Cat (ニ尾の猫俣, Nibi no Nekomata?)~~
	~~Creature type~~: ~~Nekomata (magical, two-tailed cat)~~
	~~Host: None, formerly Yugito~~
	~~Unique traits: Fire-breathing~~
	~~Status: Captured, extracted, and sealed by Akatsuki~~
	The two-tailed demon cat is a fire-breathing, flaming cat from the Land of Thunder. Its host is Yugito of Kumogakure, who was captured by the Akatsuki members Hidan and Kakuzu shortly after her introduction. Despite luring her two pursuers into a closed space, sealing the exits, and transforming herself into the demon cat, Yugito was overpowered and rendered unconscious (as well as pinned to a wall by a kunai through her hands) by the two Akatsuki members. Zetsu later arrives to take her off their hands. In chapter 331, Akatsuki begins extracting the beast from Yugito, and finishes in chapter 332.

	~~Trivia~~

	Although the two-tailed demon is depicted as a Nekomata, it doesn't seem to exhibit the same abilities as the legendary creature. The nekomata of folklore was said to animate and control the dead, while this nekomata has fire-based abilities. However, this is an indirect reference to a Japanese belief that spirits of the dead manifested as airborne flames, similar to will-o-wisps.
