The 11th breath referred to in this line suggests November to a lot of us, and I am reposting what I posted at the end of the Holes thread:
Since it feels like the instruction to go through the SW medallion hole has led to 1876 as the most likely possibility for the 'news' we must know that her first name follows. We are now investigating 1876 discoveries. The World's Fair in Philadelphia in 1876 which showcased the Corliss Centennial Steam Engine (which many have credited as kicking off the Industrial Revolution) came to an end in November, which could mark it with the 11th breath. Other notable things on display there included the newly invented Telephone & Typewriter and the Statue of Liberty (but that's for the next thread). The 8th line isn't far in the distance and it feels like we're in the home stretch here at last, guys!

Anyone think the 11th breath might be the Jack of Hearts? (Hearts being the suit that is closest to breathing). This excites me because it is new, highly possible and NEW!

Personally I wouldn't connect the cartoon-style hearts (meaning not an anatomical heart) to breathing. But considering that Jacks are the 11th card in a given suit, I wouldn't throw the idea out.

People had a shitload of kids in 1876, so maybe we're looking for the 11th son of someone.

I also wondered if the connection between breath and spirit meant we were looking for something with the name of the 11th saint, but there's no real definitive list that is widely known and accepted, is there? Other possibilities for the 11th breath: 1. A punctuation mark or notation (commas are breath marks in sheet music) 2. A pause/break/rest in a repeating pattern 3. An indication of time or date 4. A latitude or longitude value 5. A windmill or turbine 6. The 11th letter of the alphabet, K 7. The 11th month, November 8. The 11th day of a given month 9. The 11th state of the union, New York 10. The 11th president, James Polk (in office 1845 - 1849) 11. The 11th element in the periodic table, Sodium (Na is the chemical abbreviation) 12. The 11th word or letter of our poem 13. The FTS entry with 11 as the time 14. A word or words meaning "eleventh breath" in some other language 15. Per ohhoe's suggestion, the 11th offspring of someone 16. The Jack of Hearts (as I suggested earlier) 17. Something marked with Roman numeral XI 18. Alchemy Kit A011 - sent to PowerLlama (bible page is marked with "K.C. 1857" at the top left column) (close up here)Edited to add: My 100th post!! This one's for you, M!

So I had an idea. Could the 11th breath be referring to the 11th reincarnation or iteration of something? The first thing that came to my mind when I thought of it was doctor who.

Since LS said we will find the 11th breath in the world that M gave us, I am looking back through the stories and trying to pull any numbers out of them. I'm working from the WayBack Archive, so I don't know if these are sequential yet. I'll have to double check.
So far:
12:42 contains East, 5, 13, and 3
12/25 and 4/7 are mentioned (as Xmas and the 4th of July) in one brief story
1:22 mentions 1 twice
2/14 is mentioned as Valentine's Day in one brief story
12:55 contains 5 3 and 6
11:56 contains a 1, a Queen of Diamonds (could be an 11?), 1/15 (as Jan 15) and 8
(More when I find them)
Which stories am I missing??
