What lies in the shadow of the statue? The answer is Ille qui nos omnes servabit, or, “he who will save us all.”
Annie from San Diego crafted this necklace which contains both the infamous question and Richard Alpert’s answer. You can find it at her shop Spiffing Jewelry.

4 (of 12) Latin notations found on the blast door map:
- Sursum corda which means “lift up your hearts” appears three timest. This phrase is spoken at the beginning of the Eucharistic Service of Holy Communion. It is also a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
- Cogito ergo doleo which means “I think, therefore I suffer.” The notation appears just under the Flame station.
- Liberate te ex inferis which means “Save yourself from hell/the underworld.” If the magnetic anomaly at the Swan is 0 degrees, the notation appears at approximately 325 degrees, the bearing Ben provides Michael when he leaves the island.
- Mus uni non fidit antro which means “A mouse does not rely on just one hole.” The notation appears at approximately 305 degrees, the bearing that Daniel and the freighter team used to come and go from the island.
