[edit] Clue 8 Cipher
The Clue 8 deaddrop provided this cipher.
[edit] The Cipher
This cipher was found on the back of the letter Brad and Stew got at the dead drop. The letters in the cipher are:
tuzauyhpzumkoakmtzeqzmlkintanwwvbtmqtnawwanqqzgmpszamlhbaqdwvvtuszpyiunktuqessliifignocftwmcwdajy
[edit] Clues
It was determined to be a vigenere cipher needing a keyword to decode. The keyword was found to be on the mirror in the bathroom and it read:
S L U O S T S O L E H T F O R E V I R.
Read backwards it reads river of the lost souls which if put into wikipedia you get Rio de las Animas Perdidas better known as the Animas River. Therefore the keyword being animas.
[edit] The Solution
Now using a decoder found by google ([1]) you just copy paste in all the letters and use the keyword animas and you get:
THROUGH CRIMSON CATHEDRALS I ALONE WITH MY TASK WINDING UP FROM THOSE DEVILISH PLAINS THIS SALVATION BUT TEMPORARY.
This, like the first cipher, the second cipher may prove to hold clues to the treasure.
