The cameraman comes to a stop as a shadowy entity can be seen in the distance. Two glowing eyes then appear on the figure as the video cuts to black.

| + | <span class="vip">Yes child, sleep is a very important thing for your kind. So I shall tell you the tail of another who also has trouble sleeping. There once was a child who was quite curious, he was surrounded by children and yet, it was not enough for him. So he sought the company of others. Through trials and tribulations he found sanctuary in their communion, however he lost sight of the other children, his own name and even his self. But his new family loved him very much, so his father decided to give him a name. Vincent, and before he knew it he was a very responsible man. He was to oversee all of the children in his father’s home when his father was away. However one night, father saw that one of his children had become quite grand. This child was to come and see his father so that he might be told the secrets that only father may know. But two terrible children, who must not be spoken of, one flying, one simply screaming, had come and interfered. Luckily the grand child had still done what was needed on that night, but their father was displaced. He was hurt, that children would fuss in such a time of glory. But Vincent was a good boy, he gave his father refuge. But the event was much to bare, and Vincent had forgotten once again who his family truly was. This all kept Vincent awake, always awake, and his father can do no work, if Vincent is always awake and crying as though he is still simply another child. Now you must rest, for sleep is a very important thing for your kind. I may be able to go on without such a time wasting practice, but neither you nor Vincent can.</span> | ||

The video cuts to several shots of a nearby cellphone tower, which the cameraman seems to be observing. The cameraman briefly turns around and observes the woods, which causes the footage to darken slightly. The cameraman then begins walking along a path next to the cellphone tower. The footage cuts once again. The cameraman is now walking along a road that leads directly to the cellphone tower. The cameraman slowly turns around, resulting in the footage corrupting loudly. The video then cuts several times as the cameraman runs towards the cellphone tower. The footage suddenly cuts to another shot of the woods as a loud scream can be heard. A disturbing, eyeless face can be seen for a brief second along with the text "<b>s0K0lt</b>". | ||

| + | The video cuts to black for several seconds before more footage of the cameraman running towards the cellphone tower is shown. The cameraman finally reaches the cellphone tower. They observe the gate surrounding it for a bit before the video goes black. Sounds of someone climbing over the fence can be heard. The video remains black for several seconds before a link to a Vocaroo file is shown: | ||

After Jadusable's ARG went on hiatus, the forums were later deleted on August 8th, 2012 - supposedly by the police due to "death threats". The current incarnation of Within Hubris (Dubbed "Newbris" by some) is created and controlled by the players themselves - Jadusable has no involvement.}} | |

The YSHDT Arc is the first arc of Johnisdead. This arc began on January 22nd and ended on May 14th, 2015. It is highly recommended that one is knowledgeable on both the Haunted Majora's Mask Cartridge story written by Alex Hall and the video game The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask before reading through the timelines. This arc introduced pivotal characters such as Vincent and Patrem and required players to explore the cryptic pages of YSHDT.com.
