Happy solving.

Here’s a Special message from Avatar, that you need to work out from the puzzle..

“If you solved, this I must say ‘Well fought’
Look at the end of all you sought
All except first primes seven
But not without exception
The sixth drops by one
And # 8 fills in for seven
With trial and error will surface
A universal fact that is a phrase
Connected to the thread
Bung it in before you go to bed”
