The story so far...
In the previous section, the players managed to contact SKM after several months of radio silence. Here, he revealed that he was indeed Liquidsaint. He also assisted the players by helping them enter back into the Lunar Children Forums where The Ocarina was being housed. As Undecim Nocte slowly approached, the players chatted with Jarilo - an older cultist who was quite friendly despite being a Lunar Child. Unfortunately, this pleasant conversation was cut short when it was revealed that Jarilo had actually been killed and ascended by his son, Hunter. When Undecim Nocte arrived, the players enacted their plan. Through multiple submissions of the "Song of Soaring" and the "Stone Mask", the players were able to free Tyler from the cult's clutches as he escaped to Australia. There were still several mysteries left unanswered, however. Tyler's Crescent Moon Necklace was now somehow once again in his possession - something that the Lunar Children imply Hunter is responsible for. Also, Hunter and Matt have both gone missing.
Unfortunately, Tyler wasn't out of danger quite yet. Upon arriving in Australia, Carla locked him in her home. Here, he noticed many oddities such as bloody masks - all signs that Carla was indeed the former Lunar Child named "Lunaris Draco". She also took away all of his electronics and restricted him from speaking to anyone. However, on New Year's Eve, Tyler managed to sneak onto her laptop and contact the players. This would quickly prove to be a mistake, though, as Regiminis seemingly began using this connection himself. Afterwards, Tyler went radio silent. Over the next few months into the new year, Drowned contacted the players with more bad news. He revealed that both he and SKM were now in Regiminis's possession. Regiminis was intending to give them to Tenebris in exchange for John's spirit. Tenebris seemingly desired Ben's spirit for power and SKM's body for a physical vessel. Drowned explained that Regiminis desired John's spirit because John was his conduit. A conduit is someone who died as a result of someone else's ascension. If an ascended spirit uses a conduit, they supposedly gain more power.
Drowned also takes the time to share more of SKM's past. In 2011, the task that SKM preformed to gain the Lunar Children's trust was to travel to The Orchard. Here, he was instructed to do two things - record the various masks that were left there and recover a missing copy of the Libro Lunarus. While exploring the abandoned complex, SKM learned that this copy of the Libro Lunarus had supposedly been stolen by Alex in 2010. He also learned that Matt killed off most of the Moon Children shortly afterwards, transcending Alex and Spencer in the process. After carrying out the tasks above, SKM returned the Libro Lunarus to the Lunar Children. For his efforts, he was granted a Gas Mask. However, Drowned also shares an alternate version of events - one in which SKM was also gifted the Libro Lunarus. Drowned claims that this alternate version of events was somehow created by Tenebris by changing the timeline. Regardless, back in the present, both SKM and Drowned were still in danger. Thankfully, the players were able to rescue SKM. Sadly, Drowned wasn't so lucky.
Before Drowned was given to Tenebris, he revealed one final startling truth to the players - Regiminis was actually Tyler's missing friend, Kevin - the same Kevin who infiltrated the Moon Children under the name "Insidiae" in 2010. Afterwards, the trade is made, making both Tenebris and Regiminis far more powerful...

Story
On March 24th, 2016, a new video was uploaded to Silentdork - "Regiminis".
Description
http://lunarchildren.com/?p=324
<--- Click for Video Transcript
The video begins with a distorted sound playing in the background as we see several shots of Regiminis smiling. Text begins to appear over a video of Regiminis.
"Hello there old friend. Do you remember me? NO? It's fine. There is a lot you don't remember."
The video cuts to a clip from "I am doing just fine" with Regiminis faintly over the footage. We can hear what sounds like a distorted reversed song.
"How did you enjoy our quality time? Shame you couldn't stay for the festival."
A clip of the festival from Majora's Mask is played while we see the date "11/11" appear on screen. Regiminis returns and more text appears.
"Some brats decided to cut our time short."
The Internet Detectives logo briefly flashes on screen. Regiminis appears once again.
"Don't bother with them. You are being misguided from your fate."
Many images from Majora's Mask quickly flash on screen. We see the following:
-An image of Tatl with the name 'Rosa' above it. The Harbingers is written below.
-An image of Tael with the name 'Ifrit' and 'The children' and the Skull Kid with 'Tenebris' and 'Ifrit' written.
-An image of Link playing the Oath to Order with 'The Link' written.
-An image of the Stone Tower Giant with the name 'Hank' written.
-An image of the Great Bay Giant with the name 'Spencer' written.
-An image of the Snowhead Giant with the name 'Alex' written.
-An image of the Southern Swamp Giant with the name 'Douglas' written.
A clip from Majora's Mask plays of Link entering the moon. Text appears:
"The moon shall devour the link. And then give us her kingdom."
A faint image of BEN appears over the footage. We then see Link getting pulled into the air as Skull Kid lies on the ground. The name 'Matt Hubris' appears over him.
"Oh and I nearly forgot to tell you."
Footage of the Happy Mask Salesman angrily shaking his head appears.
"I made a trade with the salesman."
The moon from Majora's Mask faintly appears. Regiminis reappears along with more text:
"I didn't give him anything too important."
BEN briefly flashes on screen. The Elegy Statue also appears briefly. We cut to an image of Tenebris with the Elegy Statue behind him.
"But thanks to that trade he let John go."
We see clips of John's burned house.
"I KNOW YOU REMEMBER JOHN."
A distorted image of Regiminis's face appears.
"Once you are back home. You will be watched much more closely."
We see a clip of Police cars. The video cuts to someone approaching a door and looking out a window. We hear 'Who's That Knocking' by The Genies begin playing.
"And if you answer the door you just might see him."
We see Doug's face appear. The video goes black before showing Regiminis's distorted face once again. A quick series of phone dials is heard.
"When we come for you again do not run. DO NOT TRY TO HIDE."
Regiminis approaches the camera and the video cuts to black.
"Come play with us."
We hear two SSTV signals which hide images within them. A phone dial is also hears which translates to the following:
"Dont listen to him, its me john, his mask, ill talk later"
A distorted image of either John or Rosa appears just before the video ends.
Summary
- This video contains a threatening message from Regiminis.
- Regiminis reveals that he was the one who was filming Tyler on Undecim Nocte in "I am doing just fine".
- Several characters are associated with characters from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask:
- Rosa - Tatl, Link's fairy companion.
- Matt - Tael, Rosa's companion. Also, the Skull Kid.
- Tenebris - Majora, the main antagonist.
- Tyler - Link, the protagonist.
- The Four Giants - The in-game versions of The Four Giants.
- For some reason, Kelbris is named "Hank" in this video.
- Regiminis believes that Tyler will be sacrificed to or consumed by Luna, which will grant the Lunar Children her "kingdom".
- Regiminis says that Tyler will soon be arriving home and that the cult will continue to watch him.
- John's spirit manages to briefly speak out and informs the players that he'll speak again soon.
With John's spirit back in his possession, Regiminis used his newfound power to leave Tyler a very threatening message. In the video above, Regiminis directly addresses Tyler and informs him that the Lunar Children are indeed still watching him. He also implies that he was the one who recorded Tyler in the video "I am doing just fine" on Undecim Nocte 2015.
Interestingly, several characters within the ARG are compared to characters within The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Some of these were already known, such as Tyler being Link, Rosa being Tatl, and The Four Giants representing their in-game counterparts. However, Matt is given two different characters to represent him - Tael, Tatl's brother, and the Skull Kid - a child-like creature who is being used and manipulated by the game's main antagonist, Majora. Majora itself is seemingly a stand-in for Tenebris, implying some sort of deeper connection between Matt and Tenebris...
It's also worth noting that when The Four Giants are being shown, Kelbris's name is replaced with "Hank". This is possibly meant to imply that "Hank" is Kelbris's real name and "Kelbris" was just one he adopted for the Moon Children.
As the video nears its end, Regiminis warns Tyler that the Lunar Children, Doug, and the local authorities are still watching him. However, as the footage goes silent, a phone dial begins to play - one that contains a secret message from John himself:
John
"Don't listen to him. It's me, John. His mask. I'll talk later."
Despite being actively used as Regiminis's conduit, it seems John can still briefly reach out and contact the players. Also, this video's description contained a cipher that decoded to reveal a new page on Lunarchildren.com - "https://lunarchildren.com/?p=324". Unfortunately, this page was password-protected and could not yet be accessed...
After the release of the video above, things were relatively quiet for some time... However, on April 1st, 2016, the players were surprised to find that a new post had been made on the Lunar Children Forums - a thread titled "Whats going on in here?" posted by the Lunar Child SheepDog.

I know you people are in here so just be chill about it and let me know whats happening, I have some information for all of you right now that you might wanna hear.
Sheepdog, the relatively casual Lunar Child seen previously on the Lunar Children Forums, had somehow been given access to the "Controller" board. They were now offering to give the players some important information...
Confused, the players asked how Sheepdog was suddenly able to post on the forums once again.

Im not really sure how I have managed to get access to this place while no one else can, but I see you guys used that power that is held here a bit. Things have been.... going... I guess you could say, here at the lunar spire still despite various screw ups and the hole 11/11 flop. But your last song actually did something goodish and badish both both sides standards. Tyler was brought through one of the parallelos and then back to the fishery, idk exactly what happened to him there but he proceeded to run right back to his house. He is held up in there now and some of the children are trying to keep an eye on him but something there wont let us get any closer, something kind of fuckin freaky to say the least. We can hear him in there in his house but we can't see him. But I am sure he is ok for now.
Sheepdog isn't entirely sure why they're able to access the Lunar Children Forums. Regardless, they claim that Tyler is now back home and is currently locked up inside his trailer. Also, something "freaky" is supposedly keeping the Lunar Children from getting too close to Tyler...
Confused about Sheepdog's willingness to share information, the players ask if they agree with the cult's actions. They respond:

I never have in terms of the torture and blood sacrifices. But the way they treated this Tyler guy was just a bit much. We nearly killed him multiple times, and that point where we held him in a trunk for a couple days was going overboard.
Sheepdog claims that they don't agree with the Lunar Children's more violent and barbaric practices and notes that they locked Tyler in a trunk for several days when he was kidnapped last year.
Later that same day, a seemingly non-canon April Fools update began... This involved the discovery of a password-protected zip file titled "the start of it all in 2 letters.zip". After several guesses, the players discovered the correct answer - "WL", which is derived from the player Wolfcat's Within Hubris-based webcomic called "Weenie-Licked". As such, this zip file was opened to reveal "the truth.avi.wmv.jpg.png.png.rtf.txt.png.png" - a distorted screenshot of this very webcomic. The players later discovered another file titled "father why have you forsaken me.gif", which was another corrupted Weenie-Licked panel - this time featuring a weenie dog character named "Lord Big Hank Douglas IV".
Once the April Fools festivities were over, normal updates resumed on Lunarchildren.com. The players once again attempted to enter the locked "324" page discovered via the upload of "Regiminis". However, upon checking the page, they discovered that it had been briefly renamed to "https://lunarchildren.com/happybirthday".
After this discovery, the front page of the site saw several new announcements from a familiar face - Douglas P..

TERMS
Posted on April 1 by Douglas P.
Doug seemed to be hinting towards something on Lunarchildren.com that the players had yet to discover... Upon checking the Terminology pages, the players found that there was now a new term listed - "Auxiliatis".
Auxiliatis
One of the Absque Fascie from before the time of mankind. Her most sacred assistant, responsible of the deliverance of her testament unto man in the early times, and the movement of her word throughout her own parallelos, on her behalf. He could move all things in her stead, the only thing he could not move on her behalf was anything comprised only of the essence of her power alone.
At the sacred time when Luna was to send an ambassador of her parallelos to help guide humanity to her light, he was commanded by Luna to perform this task. But he refused, desiring to partake in the ways of the overworld more than his obligation to Mother.
“Why and wherefore dost you bid this of me? I hath served thee and thy kingdom since my creation. I wished to partake for but a moment in the ways of man, and yet here you trap me to this right? Nay, give this power not to me but unto my brother.” -Auxiliatis response to Luna’s final request of him quoted from the Libro Lunarus
Furious with his disobedience, she cast him to the parallelos he desired. Only for him to be subject to eternal servitude of all those who dwell in it. That being said, he will give his service to us, but for his treason unto mother his name alone is considered taboo. Call upon him only in times of absolute desperate need, or when invocation of True Father Patrem or Tenebris Link is not possible, and only with the permission and observation of an elder member or Father Vincent.
This page details Helper's backstory within the Lunar Children's lore. Given the name "Auxiliatis", Helper was supposedly originally an Absque Fascie who served Luna by delivering her teachings to mankind. However, when he was later commanded by Luna to be her ambassador to guide mankind to her, he rebelled, instead wishing to enjoy his time in The Overworld with mankind. As punishment, Luna cast him into The Overworld and forced him to be a servant of mankind for eternity. Because of his treason against Luna, the Lunar Children consider him a taboo figure who should only be utilized when necessary.
Afterwards, Doug made one final cryptic post:

THIS WILL HURT YOU
The meaning of this message is unknown... However, later that night, the players heard from a much friendlier source - SKM, who made the following post on Lunarchildren.com:
ENough dicking around chummers
Posted on April 1 by SKM
I hope you can see this, because I do not have long to let you know whats happening. These shazbots have me on the run right now, I am no longer hanging around their damned spire and I am currently back in florida roughing it, trying to look into meeting up with our star of the show Mr.Link!
I no longer have access to my admin accounts and I dont know what they have been planning to do with them but it does not matter, they wont take the control thread from you, I have that set to be impossible to change. Also if you happen to hear from "numbers guy" my assistant and friend, please tell him to come back offline soon, I have not seen him since that strange occurrence with the red glitches on my dreck and I have been very worried. Expect signals of some kind from Tyler soon by the way, I am not sure if any of you had anything to do with it but he has VERY bloody quickly returned by means of which I have no bloody idea.
Stay well friends <3
SKM is on the run and is currently attempting to meet up with Tyler in Florida. Unfortunately, he no longer has access to his administrator "liquidsaint" account. However, he assures the players that they will retain access to The Ocarina via the "Controller" board on the forums.
SKM also notes that he hasn't heard from Drowned in quite some time, implying that he's unaware that they're now in Regiminis's possession... However, in more positive news, he says that Tyler will soon be uploading once again, though he's confused as to how Tyler returned to Florida from Australia so quickly...
However, after the announcement above, things once again went quiet for quite some time. On April 12th, 2016, Johnisdead.com saw an update - one that featured a strange symbol titled "redeem.gif" along with the text "hopeless" and a strange beat titled "despair.mp3". In addition to this, all of the site's previous Redirect Pages had disappeared...
Even April 23rd, 2016 came and went with little fanfare, with the only update being "redeem.gif" on Johnisdead.com ominously growing larger...
After this, the players had to wait an entire month for any sort of update. Thankfully, on May 23rd, 2016, Silentdork finally saw a new upload - "5646".
Description
you must keep moving tyler. do not let you win. we are late for someone birthday
<--- Click for Video Transcript
he video begins with an incredibly loud noise as we are shown a sign that states the following:
"YOU PLAYED MINUET OF FOREST"
A smiling entity is holding the sign. There are three drawings on the sign: Two of an arrow pointing up and down, and one of eight arrows spreading out from a center point. The Majora's Mask moon can also briefly be seen. We see someone walking down a dark wooden path. What sounds like a deep voice is speaking in the background. Text begins appearing on the screen:
"Where am I?"
A red smiling face appears and says something before the video cuts back to more text.
"You are home. You are sleeping. And be careful, you are watching."
"I only have a little bit of time so I'm sorry."
Some phone dials can be heard.
"Im still not sure whats happened to me man but I am not dead, as much as they want you to think I am. But I don’t think I am alive either. The thing behind this all wants to confuse you. I was under it for a long time, it really hates you. But I don’t know why, all I know is that you living traps it in some way The thing is like a parasite, I t has to have the lives of others to exist and the religioun kevin was following teaches people to try to be like that as well, except that’s not how it seems to work."
"That religion Kevin was in, if you can remember, is a cult. I don't understand a lot of what's going on, but that thing is at the top of it all whether or not they know. This thing has walked through time and created a huge mess in its wake. Somehow this all ties to you, a kid who drowned and his father who was killed 14 years ago, and many others."
"You have to understand this is real. Don't try to explain this away as a "glitch". I have been trying to give you signs for a long time."
"I don't know what will happen but you must not let yourself be taken. Whatever that thing is will be unstoppable if you do."
We see someone looking at their phone. The time is 4:23. The video cuts a few times before showing us a briefcase at the end of the wooden path.
"I know you are scared. But please. Open it."
We see footage of something travelling through the woods at high speeds. We are then shown the inside of some sort of temple with many robed figures. We are then shown a clip of someone running from behind. We then see that same person standing at the edge of some water before turning around. Some footage of a skull is faintly overlaying the other clips. We cut to another clip of Matt R. looking at the camera. We are then shown a robed person sitting in the grass with the crescent moon necklace Tyler was given faintly overlaying the video.
The video cuts back to the boardwalk. The person filming opens the briefcase and pulls out a camera. They turn around as a loud sound plays. John quickly runs up to the camera as the screen tints red. More deep voices and dialing sounds are heard. A closeup of John's face is seen accompanied by a loud sound as long last string of dialing is heard.
Summary
- This video acknowledges the players' submission of the "Minuet of Forest".
- This video contains a message from John's spirit.
- John warns Tyler about Tenebris, who seemingly hates Tyler because it is somehow trapped so long as Tyler is alive.
- John reveals to Tyler that Kevin was in a cult and that Tenebris is a power figure within said cult.
- John says that all of this ties back to Ben and his father, who supposedly died in 2002.
- A briefcase is shown and Tyler is told to open it. Once it's opened, it reveals a camera inside.
This video opens with a red, smiling figure holding a sign that reads "YOU PLAYED MINUET OF FOREST", implying that its submission earlier in the year is somehow tied to this video's existence. The figure holding this sign is presumably Tenebris. Additionally, the sign features two symbols on it: a two-sided arrow and eight arrows pointing outwards. These same symbols were seen in 2015 hidden within the file "three.mp3".
Unfortunately, the meaning of these symbols and how exactly the "Minuet of Forest" ties into this video is unknown.
As the video progresses, John's spirit begins speaking. He warns Tyler to be careful because "you are watching". Something similar is also written in the video's description - "Do not let you win". He also claims that Tyler is currently sleeping in his home, possibly implying that this video itself is a dream of his. John informs Tyler that Kevin was a member of the Lunar Children and that Tenebris is a powerful figure within it. He describes Tenebris as a parasite that uses the bodies and lives of others. He also claims that Tenebris hates Tyler. The reason for this is because Tenebris is somehow "trapped" so long as Tyler is alive. However, the reason for this is unknown...
Afterwards, several figures flash on screen. These include Matt, John, many robed figures in a temple, and a cloaked figure with the Crescent Moon Necklace:
Matt with a skull.
John's distorted face.
Robed figures in a temple.
A cloaked figure with the Crescent Moon Necklace.
As the video nears its end, Tyler approaches a Briefcase - one very similar to the one found by SKM. John's spirit tells him to open it. Upon doing so, Tyler finds a camera. It's likely that this is the same camera that the players asked Helper to deliver to Tyler. However, before he can examine it further, he is suddenly confronted by a distorted-looking John.
This video also has one other very interesting detail. John claims that all of these events currently happening relate back to "a kid who drowned and his father who was killed 14 years ago". The kid in question is obviously Ben. However, the identity of his father is a mystery...
This video's description also reads "We are late for someone's birthday" - likely referring to the locked "Happy Birthday" page on Lunarchildren.com. This led to the players attempting to unlock this page once again. After trying various keywords from "5646" as passwords, they finally turned to a series of phone dials heard in the video that seemingly translated into gibberish. Using the numbers associated with these phone dials, the players entered "4277924784329236" as the page's password. To their surprise, it worked, and they finally had access to "https://lunarchildren.com/happybirthday".
Happy Birthday
Father why couldn’t she make it to the picture?
Your Mother? She is sleeping, but worry not Benjamen as her awakening is coming soon, even now ones from beyond these parallels speak to me.
They told me not to listen to “kelbris” anymore and to stay with them.
I am no longer Kelbris, that was my fools name. As I said before do not listen to the misguided, merely dwell with them. Our time is coming soon, while they flounder about, we shall soon bring the times of the mother to this forsaken land. Now let us go inside, I obtained for you the game device you wanted and a nice game as well, alas the label seemed to be torn. None the less, happy birthday my son.
I love you dad.
Hurry there is much to be done in the coming days, inside at once.
This page featured a conversation between Ben and his father, who is revealed to be none other than Kelbris. This matches up with what was learned in the video above which claimed that Ben's father died in 2002. As the players learned from Jarilo, Kelbris was killed in 2002 as a part of Matt's initiation to join the Moon Children.
However, even more startling is the implication that Kelbris and Patrem are the same person. Not only do they have many of the same speaking patterns, but the photo depicting Kelbris shows him wearing an outfit very similar to the he's been seen in previously:
This explains the dialogue previously found in the description of a Lostmemory423 video in which it seemed as though Patrem was drowning someone. This also seems to imply that the "previous vessel of Patrem" that was said to have fathered Ben with Luna's human-form was actually Kelbris himself.
So, putting all of this information together implies the following:
At some point, a man named Hank joined the Moon Children. The cult eventually gave him a different name - Kelbris. Kelbris met a woman who he would later claim was the human incarnation of Luna. Together, they had a child - Ben, who would later be inducted into the Moon Children as well. After this point, the human incarnation of Luna seemingly disappears.
In 1998, Kelbris presumably began hearing whispers from Luna - whispers that presumably led to him learning about ascension. He told the Moon Children about this but his words were deemed blasphemous. After this, he left the cult and denounced the name "Kelbris", likely going by Hank once again. However, as implied by the text above, his son Ben remained within their ranks.
In 2002, on Ben's birthday, Hank gifted Ben "The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask" for the Nintendo 64. However, later that year on April 23rd, Hank drowned Ben, claiming that someone named "Diana" was waiting for them. Though the identity of Diana is still unknown, she is implied to have some connection to Luna. Ben is ascended and his spirit is trapped within the Majora's Mask Cartridge alongside Tenebris, who would later use him as a conduit and begin calling himself "BEN".
Later that same day, Matt arrives and kills Hank as a part of his initiation into the Moon Children, inadvertently transcending him into The Fourth Giant in the process. This presumably also somehow leads to Hank becoming Patrem as well. However, the logistics of this are still a mystery... Regardless, Hank's ascension led to the creation of both The Fourth Giant, Kelbris, and the ascended spirit, Patrem.
In his ascended state, Patrem seemingly led the Lunar Children. Meanwhile, the Moon Children continued running under the command of Mr. D - Tenebris. In 2010, Kelbris was seemingly awoken and confronted both Matt and Rosa. After this, Matt killed off most of the Moon Children before later joining the Lunar Children.
With the players finally having received more pieces of the puzzle, the various stories tying the Lunar Children and Moon Children together started becoming a bit more clear... However, they would once again have to wait quite some time before receiving more details.
On June 22nd, 2016, Johnisdead.com saw another update. The page now contained a distorted version of "Foggyworld248.jpg" titled "reunion.png" and a corrupted audio file titled "threevoices.mp3".
This page also hid the text "Don't Fall". This led to the players reexamining the original Hole found on Johnisdead.com. This paid off as players quickly found a new page - "https://johnisdead.com/hole/fall/N", which simply contained the text "bcd" and the audio file "clue.ogg". This audio contained an SSTV signal that hid the message "Pictures hold one thousand words Read Them".
Using the hint "bcd", the players experimented with various URL's and discovered the existence of "bcd.zip" hidden within the page above. Unfortunately, this file was password protected. However, after some further experimentation, the password "lostmemory" was used to unlock it. Unfortunately, all this file contained was a broken image titled "_.bmp".
Several players decided to look into the code for the image "_.bmp" in an attempt to see why it was broken. This led to the discovery that several lines of text had been added to its code:
Tenebris
"Still looking for answers? Who do you think I am? Were you expecting a reward? A hint? Something to help you in this pointless struggle you have placed yourself in? You are in error. It will be amusing watching you all this time. Just as before, you won't understand until it's too late."
This was clearly a taunting message from Tenebris himself. However, what exactly he was referring to with "this time" and "just as before" is unclear...
Shortly after this, players found that "https://johnisdead.com/tyler" had also updated, now featuring a heavily distorted image of Tenebris titled "eyes.jpg".
On June 23rd, 2016, after several months of radio silence, Tyler finally posted another video to Silentdork - "Update june 23rd: More to come".
Description
There is so much shit on this youtube channel right now that I promise you I had nothing to do with. All of my playlists are gone, all of these status and videos are not from me.

The video begins with Tyler staring at the camera for a long period of time. The footage is dark and we hear the Skull Kid laugh as the audio seems to finally cut in.
Tyler: "-but not actually."
The video cuts again, this time looking normal.
Tyler: "Hey... It's been a long time since I've uploaded anything to this YouTube channel, and... there's been a lot of reasons for that. Mainly because, as I think I mentioned previously in other videos, I was going to be gone and in Australia, and I was... There's a lot I need to talk about now. It's actually been a really long time since I've been back, and, uh... and... I've learned a lot. I've learned quite a bit but I know there's still a lot I need to learn. I've learned about the perils of sharing a little bit too much information... I mean here I am now making another YouTube video, but..."
The video cuts in and out several times.
Tyler: "Over the fence as they say... It's a little too late for caution now. It's too late for a lot of things. And... I've learned that... well, I've learned in more recent months that... obviously something has been going on for quite some time now..."
As Tyler finishes this sentence a distorted voice can be heard saying the following:
"oh john had not yet been cast into prison, you shouldn't have"
Tyler: "I'm not sure what that something is and I'm not-"
The video stutters and cuts to darkness where Tyler can be heard speaking in reverse. The video then cuts back to Tyler.
Tyler: "I'm really scared... I'm really scared to talk about it, but, um... I don't really know where else to go... Everything is very dangerous right now... in ways that a sane person could not possibly understand."
A faint image of the Elegy Statue appears over Tyler.
Tyler: "If that makes any sense. But, um... I just- I remember the little warnings people following this YouTube channel gave that I ignored... and at the time I thought they were entertaining..."
The Skull Kid's laugh can very briefly be heard repeatedly.
Tyler: "Because I didn't know... but now I am getting to know that something is very wrong. Something is very... very wrong. There's a lot that I really, really want to talk about, and I really, really just really... need help... But..."
The video cuts here and shows two different clips of Tyler speaking to the camera. The fainter, second Tyler says the following:
"but er(Indecipherable) come in with (mumble), when the true worshippers have worshipped father in spirit hand in truth for the father he'd give such to worship him"
Tyler: "I'm also a bit busy right now... and, um... and, uh... I-I have a compilation of videos that, um... I have a compilation of videos that I will be uploading soon, but I..."
Tyler looks up behind the camera in fear as he reaches to turn off the recording.
Tyler: "I need to go right now. Um, I'll- I'll- I'll upload more soon."
Tyler turns the camera off. The distorted voice can once again be heard:
"(Sobbing) please go away, please, please go away, p-please go away, please, p-please go away, i- go away, please. please stop.. knocking. please.. stop.. FUCKING knocking."
The video ends with the Skull Kid laughing.
Summary
- This video contains an update from Tyler, who seems very paranoid and tired.
- Tyler is seemingly being haunted and tormented by Tenebris.
- Tyler claims he's become a bit more aware of what all has been going on and the danger that he's in.
- Tyler claims he has several videos that he needs to upload - presumably recordings from 2015.
This video contains a general update from Tyler, who doesn't seem to be doing very well... Judging by the various corruptions seen throughout the video, it's implied that Tyler is currently being haunted by Tenebris - something that has made him very paranoid. Tyler claims that he's since learned a bit more about what all is going on regarding his situation and the Lunar Children. He also claims he still has several other videos that he needs to upload - presumably footage he took while he was kidnapped by the Lunar Children in 2015.
Later that day, Lunarchildren.com underwent a fairly large update - seven separate announcements were suddenly posted to the website. Interestingly, these announcements date back to March 1st, implying that the cult had actually been fairly active throughout the year - the players were just unable to view their posts.
Everyone come immediately to the top floor of the spire!

Father Vincent has an important announcement for us all!
Success!
Posted on March 2 by Thoth
Glory to Luna my brothers and sisters! The Harbingers Link has been taken back to his original place of living at long last and soon there will be another chance for us to preform the rites! Our salvation is truly at hand and at last we will become angels and masters of this and all worlds! Near the end of april is when we must be prepared to make our move!
Until then we must do what we can to find Matt, he has not been seen since the November black out and he is a crucial part of what is to come! Just as well if anyone has seen douglas report to an elder immediately, he has not spoken to anyone or been seen for much too long. Finally, Saint is not to be spoken of until further notice, he is a traitor and seeks to do the unthinkable. This is all we know as he has escaped our sight, for now.
Thoth implies that Tyler was already back in Florida by March 1st. Around this same time, Patrem informed the Lunar Children that they will be able to attempt to capture Tyler and enact the Ceremony of the Three Elements once again near the end of April - likely on April 23rd, 2016.
Thoth also gives updates regarding several other Lunar Children. Matt and Doug are still missing and seemingly have been since Undecim Nocte 2015. Also, the fact that SKM is Liquidsaint is now a well-known fact and he's since been labelled a traitor by the cult.

It is time for Her to feed
Why
Posted on April 24 by Thoth
Father why have you forsaken us!? Luna why have you left us? What have we done wrong? Why were we unable to get to him at the most crucial time once more? Is this not what you wanted Father?! Why are we now being punished?! WHERE ARE YOU FATHER!? WHERE ARE YOU VINCENT!? LUNA WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO US!?
On April 23rd, Doug made a cryptic post about Luna feeding... Shortly after this, Thoth posted a frantic announcement questioning why Patrem and Luna abandoned them. It seems as though the Lunar Children were unable to capture Tyler - possibly due to the "freaky" thing mentioned by Sheepdog keeping them at bay. Regardless, the cult had failed once again and were now seemingly being punished by Luna... The next announcement shed some more light on what exactly became of the cult:
If anyone is still out there
Posted on April 30 by Thoth
This is not the owner of thoths account, but I think I may honestly be the last one here to do anything. I don’t know what happened to everyone, but something went really wrong after 4/23. Way worse than 11/11. And they were trying to keep it all shut up, but failing to get to Tyler a second time seems to have made some very important people very angry, and judging by the amount of people who are just outright gone from existence, I think it goes without saying who these people are. But for quite some time lots of stuff has been going to shit. Those forums for example, were a very nasty way of trying to sweep our horrible mistake at the fishery under the rug. Those souls may never find true rest while trapped there, stuck in the same place in time, thinking they are still in that dreary building. The abnormalities in this place have no doubt been a side effect of their suffering.
That being said this may end up being the last activity anyone sees from this blog from anyone who is still… well… human I guess you could say. If any activity happens after this at all for that matter, and if it does I do not want to see it. I thank god for every moment I have managed to live through these horrors, and I am sure worse is still to come. If you see this, for your own safety I beg you, do not come back here. Do not attempt to contact anyone in relation to this group or anything in relation to this group.
Goodbye and to any old friends if you are alive, I am so sorry.
An unknown Lunar Child posts an update using Thoth's account. They claim that the cult failing to capture Tyler a second time led to something terrible happening on April 23rd, 2016. Though it isn't revealed what exactly happened to the Lunar Children, it supposedly led to the vast majority of them vanishing from existence - an event that would later come to be known as "The Cataclysm".
The Lunar Child then chides the cult for attempting to cover up its many mistakes, such as brushing off what occurred on Undecim Nocte 2011 and covering up the presence of the trapped souls within the Lunar Children servers.

The final two announcements were from Matt and Doug respectively, implying that despite The Cataclysm, they were both still active. Matt's announcement was password protected. However, players quickly realized that Doug's message held the answer - "htmtf", which is "mhfft, or "Matt Hubris Four Two Three" scrambled. Entering this in as the password revealed a link to a hidden YouTube video on Silentdork - "3".

The video begins with a black screen with the Elegy Statue's face faintly visible. We hear what sounds like someone drowning followed by a distorted Song of Time being played. We hear what sounds like flowing water followed by a corrupted laugh.
Summary
- Tenebris imagery is shown in this short video. The "Song of Time" can be heard playing before the video ends.
This short video contains a faint image of the Elegy Statue accompanied by the "Song of Time". This seems to imply that Tenebris himself was actually using The Ocarina to submit the "Song of Time", leaving the players to speculate on his motives behind this.
However... They wouldn't have to wait very long.
On July 3rd, 2016, the players made a very shocking discovery. After being offline for five long years, a familiar website had finally returned.
