awaken a messenger

In the little place at the beginning of (some?) puzzles, where you can 'seek council', after you paint your QR (which is black and white, painted with white paint.....we'll leave that mystery for another day) it says a messenger must be awakened first. How do you do that?

If you unlocked the C section (it feels so weird writing this, no pun intended), there's an item you can pick up in the which lets you unlock another room in all three sections. Just complete the puzzle there
Didn't want to spoil anything, but if you can't find something, just reply to me and I'll tell you in detail.

Gotta love them C sections >_<

But if I understand you right, you gotta complete stuff first in order to get to the C area, but you can ask help (seek council) before that.... Doesn't make sense to me..

I am currently in the egyptian area, can't remember if thats B or C. And it's not that I need help or anything with the puzzles (well let's make that 'not yet') but I got the feeling I totally missed some explenation regarding these 'messengers'.

Thanks for replying btw!

@Aergistal Thanks, I'll go check that out. But it's not that I'm stuck or anything, but when I sought council (to see how that works) I couldn't remember if I heard about these messengers before. Thats all.

@Aergistal Ah ok I think it makes a little more sense. Are the puzzles you need to complete to find the messengers among the 'hidden' stuff? So not the 'main' puzzles to collect sigils, but little sneaky stuff in between?

You can only seek council in "red" puzzles, but you don't need to complete any red puzzles in order to get to area C. In other words, if you get stuck, you can leave that puzzle alone and come back later when you have gained access to area C.
