Jacob is a character who has been present since the beginning of Johnisdead. Originally appearing as a player during the YSHDT Arc, he was revealed to be a character when he suddenly went missing during the Johnisdead Arc. It was later revealed that he was a friend of Tyler's who went missing in 2009 after joining the Lunar Children. While in the cult, he became a vessel for Patrem and took on the name Vincent Adams, having forgotten his past life due to Patrem's presence. Vincent later returned in 2020 after being separated from Patrem and shared vital information with the players.

Story

Jacob was born sometime during the 1990's in Florida. It is assumed that he had a fairly normal childhood growing up. At some point he met Tyler. The two became friends, often hanging out and talking about various topics such as drug trips. In 2009, Jacob joined the Internet Detectives and partook in the YSHDT Arc as a player. During this arc, the players discovered that their Link, Doug, had just recently joined a cult known as the Lunar Children. Once it was revealed that both Jacob and Doug lived in Florida, Jacob asked if he could be recruited into the cult. He was directed to Doug's friend Mason who had him carry out a series of initiation rituals that involved recording oneself staring at the camera while thinking about one's deepest fears and reciting the cult's oath.

At some point, Jacob was accepted and inducted into the cult. Instead of simply gathering information about the cult to give to the players, Jacob presumably became genuinely interested in their practices. Through carrying out small duties for the Lunar Children and keeping a low, obedient profile, Jacob was able to rise fairly high through the cult's ranks. After being with the Lunar Children for some time, Jacob was later presented with the final test of loyalty within the cult - the option of receiving their experimental brain operation. Despite the fact that this operation would completely change his identity, Jacob went through with it. Once the process was completed, Jacob had forgotten most of his previous life. He now took on a new name - Vincent Adams.

Vincent once again rose through the ranks of the Lunar Children, eventually being given the title of "Overseer". As Overseer, Vincent was present at the Fishery on Undecim Nocte, 2011 - the night of Kevin's ascension. However, the ascension went awry, resulting in Patrem becoming trapped in Vincent's body. This caused Vincent to lose his memories once again, completely forgetting about the Lunar Children. He was also unaware of Patrem's presence inside his body, as Patrem was only able to take control of him whenever he fell asleep. Despite this, side-effects of Patrem's presence were still present, such as insomnia and memory loss.

In 2014, Vincent began a series of sleep deprivation experiments in an attempt to inspire himself to create music. He recorded the results of these experiments and uploaded them to his YouTube channel, Vincent Adams. During this time, Vincent would still occasionally be possessed by Patrem whenever he fell asleep, presumably resulting in Patrem returning to the Lunar Children to carry out cult responsibilities. During this time, Vincent was known as Father Vincent. On March 18th, 2015, Vincent unexpectedly woke up while Patrem was using his body to speak to the players on the Within Hubris Forums. This resulted in the players managing to briefly siphon some information out of him. Unfortately, Vincent was too distraught with the situation and quickly left.

Vincent continued this unaware dualistic life until April 23rd, 2016. On this date, Vincent was suddenly freed from Patrem's control just before the Cataclysm destroyed The Spire. Vincent claims that he immediately ran out of the Spire, but not before witnessing Patrem seemingly being "sucked into something". While Vincent managed to make his way back to his house, he wasn't completely unscathed. Over time, he felt his mind and soul slowly beginning to degrade. This was the result of his body slowly slipping into the Parallelos, where he would go through a horrifying spiritual journey. While in the Parallelos, Vincent passed through a dark, terrifying forest. Though he would occasionally pass by what he believed to be other people, but he would never attempt to communicate with them. One strange side-effect of Vincent's time within the Parallelos was the recovery of his memories - at least to some extent. It seems as though his time within the Parallelos slowly undid the effects of the Lunar Children's experimental brain operation. Vincent also apparently discovered some very reality-breaking information while here, though he has never elaborated on what exactly this was.

After what felt like years and years of walking through the Parallelos, Vincent was mentally exhausted. He sat down next to a tree, which eventually grew around his body. At this point, he had completely given up on escaping and had accepted his fate. Trapped in the tree, he watched as a large storm of darkness with a tendril in the center began to approach him. However, before it reached him, an "Angel" approached him and lifted him up into the air. The "Angel" protected Vincent as the two flew through the Parallelos, where he witnessed many horrific things. Suddenly, Vincent was back in his room, having been saved by the "Angel". Though it felt like he had been in the Parallelos for "eons", the year was only 2020, meaning he was only gone for four years.

Vincent began uploading videos to his YouTube channel once again. These were music videos that detailed his journey through the Parallelos. Players managed to reach out to Vincent in the comment section of these videos, inviting him to the Internet Detectives Discord server. At this point, Vincent was still incredibly paranoid, though he was now much more calm compared to when the players spoke to him in 2015. To quell his paranoia, the players created a separate, isolated chat room where they could speak freely - the Paradigm of Safety Discord Server. Here, Vincent explained many of the Lunar Children's inner workings and his own experiences both with the cult and the Parallelos.

Though he was now in a much better position than before, Vincent was still experiencing some strange oddities. He now seemed to have conflicting memories of his childhood, as if he were able to recall the childhood of two separate people. He described this as though he were two people being merged into a third entity. Vincent continued giving the players valuable information up through late 2020, when he suddenly disappeared. It was around this time that players discovered Vincent's old sleep deprivation experiment videos, which fully confirmed that he was indeed Jacob.

Personality

Jacob is an incredibly troubled individual, having his identity warped multiple times either through experimental brain procedures or via the influence of malicious entities. Before joining the Lunar Children in 2009, he was a fellow player within the Internet Detectives who enjoyed spending time with the others. However, after becoming known as Vincent Adams and having his mind warped via the cult's surgery, he became focused solely on his religious duties. After becoming an unknowing host for Patrem, he lost his memories once again. During this period of time, he was stricken with insomnia and woke up in strange places due to Patrem's presence. This, understandably, resulted in him becoming easily frustrated and constantly tired. After experiencing his horrific journey through the Parallelos, Vincent appeared much more "numb" to everything. Though he still felt fear and paranoia regarding the Lunar Children, he spoke with a much more calm demeanor and complied with the players.

Jacob

Troubled, stolen. Trapped in the forest while the angel workers seek access to his seed. The chemical contained among the residence of the thrice counted eye. He should safe gaurd it but does not. This makes me sad =[

Vincent

A component now being exploited for an attempted ID shell establishment. Don't ask me what that means, but I think the people trying to make that work have or are going to fail. The "aggregate source" was not "awakened enough" I hear. When they wake up I wonder who they will be in the end? I think that part might be obvious for a lot of people by now lol

Jacob Anthony: "Yes we are. But it feels like we know whats going on. We know you are interested in this religious organisation but I don't think you should do it."
DandP: "Alright, that takes a load off my mind. I know it's a little odd to see a new religion start up, especially in this Christian nation of ours, but it will lead us all closer to god and happiness."
ADU: "Mind if i ask for the rest of that article? that is, if you are able to get it."

/Patrem\ 10:39 PM: "My time is very limited. I am timeless, but my flesh puppet moves on a most cumbersome schedule."
/Patrem\ 10:39 PM: ((Patrem posts a corrupted version of the player Tyler's audio file))
Stevey 10:45 PM: "Is that.... Tylep's stuff in there? ... what are you implying? ... On Doug's old blog... Mason mentioned he met a Grey Man.. Do you know who this is?"
Sengi 10:58 PM: "Hey Patrem, who is The gray man? Can we get any clues to it's identity?"
Eve 11:27 PM: "Patrem, is there anything we can do to aid you? Or is there something that we've overlooked?"
Stevey 11:28 PM: "It seems Patrem is unwilling to talk of the identity of this Grey Man. .... we should use this time to ask something vital before Patrem leaves.."
GreyouTT 11:30 PM: "Or maybe you should be more patient."
Wolfcat 11:40 PM: "Do you have other 'puppets' at your disposal? If so, have we met them?"
Tyler: 11:43 PM: "Patrem used my thingy, does this mean I am cannon now?"
GreyouTT 12:02 AM: "Hey Patrem, what are you children at the fishery preparing for exactly?"
/Patrem\ 12:38 AM: ""Is that.... Tylep's stuff in there? ... what are you implying?""
/Patrem\ 12:38 AM: "Something about it felt nostalgic, I then quickly realized it was not I who felt it but my flesh."
/Patrem\ 12:38 AM: ""Hey Patrem, what are you children at the fishery preparing for exactly?""
/Patrem\ 12:38 AM: "They are simply playing now, as children do. I however am the one preparing, so that things may be a bit more favorable in that time."
Chuckles 12:51 AM: "hey Patrem what do you jerk off to?"
GreyouTT 12:52 AM: "What's going to happen when the time you're preparing for comes? Some sort of spiritual event or something like the moon falling?"
Oceanstuck 1:01 AM: ""hey Patrem what do you jerk off to?""
Oceanstuck 1:01 AM: "your mom"
/Patrem\ 1:27 AM: ""So maybe at some point we can play the Goron's Lullaby to put Vincent to rest, which will allow Patrem to further his plans""
/Patrem\ 1:27 AM: "He sleeps even now, in fact, he fell asleep in a rather unfamiliar location as you may have over heard in my previous message."
Mugen Kagemaru 1:45 AM: "Does the name Valoron Lyro mean anything to you? He claims he once killed you but I doubt the validity of such a claim."
Oceanstuck 1:49 AM: "i have a nagging feeling that shit is about to be thrown everywhere..."
/Patrem\ 1:50 AM: "Child none have killed me and I may never truly die. I have never encountered this man but he tells foolish tales of a liar."
Oceanstuck 1:55 AM: "idk whether to be relieved or perturbed by this info regarding a joke statement"
/Patrem\ 1:56 AM: ""Should we ask about the Spire?""
/Patrem\ 1:56 AM: "Ask me not of this."
GreyouTT 1:58 AM: "What do you think of the color Azure?"
/Patrem\ 2:11 AM: "It is a meaningless color to me. This place is quite loud, and soon this child shall awaken once again. I have time for but one more question."
Mugen Kagemaru 2:13 AM: "Will you permit the child to converse with us?"
/Patrem\ 2:26 AM: "I can feel him awakening so I may have no choice. However before I depart, I wish to clear up a prior confusion that I found most aggravating. Vincent and Douglas are two separate children, also Ibfda fd awakened"
GreyouTT 2:29 AM: "Thank goodness he managed to click send before the seizure completely took hold."
((Vincent begins speaking through Patrem's account))
/Patrem\ 2:40 AM: "What is this?"
Mugen Kagemaru 2:43 AM: "This... is a place of gathering, really. Um, what can you tell us about where you are?"
GreyouTT 2:45 AM: "It's a forum yo. You feeling alright?"
/Patrem\ 2:50 AM: "I'm really confused, I don't know who you are or what this website is. But the last thing I remember is going to sleep in my room, and now it looks like I am in my local park. I am feeling kinda of weird and my head hurts. Who are you people and do you know anything about this?"
Eve 2:52 AM: "We are the Internet Detectives. What's your name?"
/Patrem\ 2:54 AM: "Why should I tell you my name? What the fuck is going on!?"
Mugen Kagemaru 2:54 AM: "Um, Eve? Don't we already know his name? Anyway, some unusual things have come up regarding a group with a thing for the moon. Is there anything you can tell us about that while you make your way home?"
/Patrem\ 3:01 AM: "A thing for the moon? Thats a shame, there is no moon in the sky tonight. But I don't know anything about this group. Do you know why I am sitting here with this page open in my night clothes in the middle of my local park at night?"
GreyouTT 3:01 AM: "Well this is going to take some explaining. Well not the park thing, not sure about that part, but the rest of it we can explain. Well kind of. You see it's very complicated, you may want to sit down if you aren't already. If anything, you may or may not want to look back at your post history."
/Patrem\ 3:03 AM: "Wait... HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW MY NAME!?"
Mugen Kagemaru 3:04 AM: "You don't know anything? That's odd... Why would that one choose you, then...? As Grey implied, we do have an explanation for your little mystery, but we fear it won't exactly be... ... ah... how would you people put it... ...believeable? Yes, there we go. We fear you won't believe us. (Addendum) As for your name... well, someone told us."
GreyouTT 3:14 AM: "Yes well the name thing is I admit, suspicious, and you are no doubt confused by what is going on. But right now I think you should be focusing on why you are in the park right now. Now, could you describe your surroundings, do you see anything out of the ordinary that does not involve pajamas."
Mugen Kagemaru 3:17 AM: "*facepalm* Grey... Anything odd that doesn't involve pajamas or the fact that total strangers over the Internet just happen to know your name?"
/Patrem\ 3:21 AM: "I have no idea where my phone is, and the lights in the park were all flickering for a few moments when I woke up. I recall having it in my hand before I fell asleep. I have no idea why I would be in the park but I am about to head home, when I leave the park there will be no wifi until I get back to my house."
Mugen Kagemaru 3:27 AM: "OK, before you go, could you clear something up for us? The person who told us your name, they also said you helped a person who was like a father figure to you when something went wrong. Can you tell us anything about that?"
/Patrem\ 3:35 AM: "My father is dead, I don't have any father figures and I have no idea what the fuck you are talking about. I am gonna go before someone steals my shit. Some little kid just walked up to me, like this young kid and just asked me if the "Purple man" is gone now, crying and shit. Fuck this, fuck everything about this, fuck you guys, fuck whoever the purple man is. I am going home now. Fuck this."

Summary

• While Patrem is speaking to the players on the Within Hubris Forums, Vincent suddenly awakens, resulting in him regaining control of his body. Confused, he answers some of the players' questions on the forums before leaving out of fear and frustration.

[7:32 PM] Vincentadams: "Hello I am sorry for taking so long to respond."
[7:32 PM] IIFan2001: "Hello"
[7:32 PM] Xenquility: "It's fine dude"
[7:32 PM] Vincentadams: "I was very exhausted and had to rest. I did not mean to just stop responding."
[7:33 PM] IIFan2001: "It's completely fine"
[7:33 PM] Xenquility: "Sorry if we seemed naggy, mainly just wanted to make sure you were still okay lmao"
[7:33 PM] IIFan2001: "Yea"
[7:34 PM] Vincentadams: "That's okay. You did not seem naggy. I can understand your concern."
[7:34 PM] Vincentadams: "And I appreciate it."
[7:35 PM] Xenquility: "I guess it's good to know you're able to sleep now"
[7:35 PM] Vincentadams: "Yes I am, thankfully."
[7:36 PM] Xenquility: "Did you get all of what we said last night?"
[7:37 PM] Vincentadams: "Yes. I remember certain aspects of what you described."
[7:40 PM] Xenquility: "Do you recall what we said at the end? About what happened to you?"
[7:50 PM] Vincentadams: "Yes. I remember during the sleep experiments, I was experiencing terrible nightmares and waking up in strange places like a park near my house. The sleep deprivation was both an attempt to improve my music but to also, in some way, defend myself against my sleep in and of it's self."
[7:51 PM] Vincentadams: "Though, after a time, I was unable to deprive myself of sleep."
[7:51 PM] Vincentadams: "I was just too tired."
[7:54 PM] Xenquility: "So you don't remember any topic of possession?"
[7:57 PM] Vincentadams: "I remember after the fact. During the time that I was asleep, I would catch very blurry, vague, glimpses of what was happening. I didn't know what was going on with me during the sleep experiments. But after my body was somehow free, I gradually became more and more able to peice together the events that I was indirectly involved in."
[8:02 PM] Xenquility: "Hm"
[8:02 PM] Xenquility: "Well uh"
[8:02 PM] Xenquility: "Do you remember the Patrem guy?"
[8:02 PM] Vincentadams: "Yes."
[8:02 PM] Xenquility: "The one who led the Lunar Children cult we told you about?"
[8:02 PM] Xenquility: "Well"
[8:03 PM] Xenquility: "(Sorry if you did remember this but I'd just like to make sure) he was kind of using you as a vessel"
[8:03 PM] Xenquility: "like a flesh body"
[8:03 PM] IIFan2001: "Yeah"
[8:03 PM] Xenquility: "until 2018 when he took over our friend"
[8:09 PM] Vincentadams: "I remember a tower."
[8:09 PM] Xenquility: "A tower?"
[8:09 PM] Xenquility: "Like a spire?"
[8:10 PM] Vincentadams: "Yeah, like a spire."
[8:10 PM] Xenquility: "Any clue what happened there?"
[8:11 PM] Xenquility: "That was the Lunar Children base of operations"
[8:11 PM] Xenquility: "Kinda like this?"
[8:11 PM] Xenquility: ((An image of The Spire is sent))
[8:16 PM] Vincentadams: "I wouldn't really recognize it from the outside. I remember having a quick flash of clarity. Whatever was happening there gave me a chance to escape. My mind and body was free. Though I was disoriented, I managed to, in simple terms, get the hell out of there. I'm not entirely sure of what happened but I knew enough to know I had to leave."
[8:16 PM] Xenquility: "Good call. Last we heard, everyone there disappeared."
[8:17 PM] Xenquility: "Well, mostly everyone"
[8:17 PM] otherLiam: "Yeah, do you remember what happened after you escaped?"
[8:25 PM] Xenquility: "^"
[8:27 PM] Xenquility: "ERIKA YAY"
[8:27 PM] IIFan2001: "Hi Erika"
[8:27 PM] otherLiam: "?"
[8:27 PM] Xenquility: "she was typing lmao"
[8:27 PM] otherLiam: "yall are creepers"
[8:27 PM] Xenquility: "ok larper"
[8:28 PM] Vincentadams: "From that point on, my mind and soul was mine again. After leaving the tower, I made my way back home and in fear that this would happen again, I packed up and relocated as soon as possible which is why in my other video of me writing a song on the piano, is in a different home."
[8:29 PM] Xenquility: "So you've been back for a couple years?"
[8:29 PM] Vincentadams: "No."
[8:29 PM] Xenquility: "Okay uh"
[8:29 PM] Xenquility: "1. Do you recall when it was you left the spire?"
[8:29 PM] Xenquility: "2. What is the date for you?"
[8:31 PM] Vincentadams: "I believe I was in the tower in 2016. And what do you mean with the second question? Today's date?"
[8:31 PM] Xenquility: "Yeah"
[8:31 PM] Vincentadams: "1/30/2020"
[8:32 PM] Xenquility: "Ah. So you lost control again after you left the spire?"
[8:34 PM] Xenquility: "wait"
[8:34 PM] Xenquility: "wait"
[8:34 PM] Xenquility: "did I just see"
[8:34 PM] Xenquility: "what the fuck"
[8:35 PM] IIFan2001: "huh?"
[8:35 PM] Xenquility: "okay nevermind I think"
[8:35 PM] Xenquility: "keep an eye out on who is typing, I could've sworn I just saw IIIII (mind you Wolfcat is in here and is a piece of trolling dick so it could've been him but im not sure) [or im completely wrong]"
[8:36 PM] IIFan2001: "Oh"
[8:36 PM] Vincentadams: "Not exactly. Once I moved to a new home, I felt like things were going to be okay. Slowly during that time, I could feel my mind and maybe even my soul degrading. Everyday I felt like less and less of myself. The last video of me playing the piano was the last thing I remember up until the last week or two."
[8:37 PM] Xenquility: "So that video is from a long time ago?"
[8:37 PM] Xenquility: "Or, I should, say, when is it from?"
[8:37 PM] Xenquility: "(Also yes it was wolfcat)"
[8:37 PM] IIFan2001: "Oh"
[8:40 PM] Vincentadams: "This one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jr3kM2iIIn4"
[8:40 PM] Vincentadams: "is the last thing I remember"
[8:40 PM] Xenquility: "Ah, that one"
[8:42 PM] Xenquility: "Do you specifically recall creating that piece? The cult appears to think it was created by the Patrem guy before he made the lunar children"
[8:42 PM] Xenquility: "(And I'm not trying to discredit your musical talent) but it could be possible that patrem left some sort of "imprint" on your mind"
[8:43 PM] Xenquility: "though that does sound rather odd"
[8:46 PM] Vincentadams: "I do recall creating that peice. If felt very, fluid I guess you could say. Almost as if the song was writing it's self. I also was sort of incorrect in saying that was the last thing I remember but I will get into that in a future video I am planning on. To type it out wouldn't explain it very well, I don't think."
[8:48 PM] Xenquility: "Yeah, if the cult is to be believed and Patrem did write that song, I think it's safe to guess possession does leave an imprint"
[8:48 PM] Xenquility: "That, or it was just you recalling Patrem-based memories as your soul "deteriorated" (For lack of a better word)"
[8:50 PM] Xenquility: "Have you been feeling alright since you've been back?"
[8:53 PM] Vincentadams: "When writing that song it felt like I was writing it for someone that I cared for deeply. Like I wrote a love song for someone I've never met. Since I've been back, it's mostly been confusing. My house is still normal, life more or less continues on. But it has been very disorienting, mentally. It feels like I have more to process than I realize."
[8:54 PM] Xenquility: "well Patrem's wife did die shortly before he made the cult"
[8:54 PM] Vincentadams: "I feel sad for that."
[8:55 PM] Xenquility: "if he wrote that song for his wife and was recalling it in 2017 it could mean the original "Hank" is still in there"
[8:55 PM] IIFan2001: "While giving birth to Ben"
[8:56 PM] Vincentadams: "Could be. It's hard to understand that for me, though. It felt like I was writing it rather than remembering it. But it explains why I felt so strongly about this non-person I was writing for."
[9:07 PM] Xenquility: "Anything else you're able to recall?"
[9:09 PM] Vincentadams: "In a way but I will explain later in that video I mentioned."
[9:09 PM] IIFan2001: "Okay"
[9:09 PM] Xenquility: "Any clue when you'll have it out?"
[9:10 PM] Vincentadams: "Not at the moment. I will let you guys know before I upload it."
[9:10 PM] IIFan2001: "Alright"
[9:13 PM] Xenquility: "Sounds good man. Hope things start going better for you"
[9:13 PM] Vincentadams: "Thank you, I appreciate how caring you all are."
[9:14 PM] Vincentadams: "Right now I'm just trying to relax and recover, I guess you could say."

Summary

• Vincent describes his experiences back when Patrem was still influencing his body. He claims that he broke free from Patrem's control on April 23rd, 2016 before the Cataclysm destroyed The Spire. After this, his mind and soul slowly deteriorated - the last thing he remembered at that point was uploading the video 73 68 6f 77 20 6d 65 in 2017.

[12:39 AM] Vincentadams: "hello you guys"
[12:39 AM] Xenquility: "yO"
[12:39 AM] Xenquility: "*Yo"
[12:39 AM] Xenquility: "How goes it?"
[12:39 AM] otherLiam: "Heya dude"
[12:41 AM] Vincentadams: "It goes okay. Clearing my head still. I told you guys I would let you know when I am planning on posting a video explaining what I went through in the last years."
[12:42 AM] Vincentadams: "I have decided that I will upload several videos because there is a lot to talk about."
[12:43 AM] Xenquility: "All at once or over a period of time?"
[12:44 AM] Vincentadams: "Over time. It is difficult for me to express these things in words which is why I have not simply explained everything here."
[12:45 AM] Vincentadams: "I considered a video log style series of videos but decided against that too."
[12:45 AM] Vincentadams: "I came to my conclusion that I will express this to you people the best way I know how and that is through my artistic expression."
[12:48 AM] Xenquility: "That sounds interesting"
[12:48 AM] Xenquility: "Does that mean through songs?"
[12:50 AM] Vincentadams: "With a video, yes."
[12:52 AM] Xenquility: "When do you think you'll have the first ready?"
[12:52 AM] Xenquility: "No worries about rushing, I can't imagine it's easy to express possession artistically lmao"
[12:56 AM] Vincentadams: "Probably soon."
[12:56 AM] Vincentadams: "Tonight or tomorrow."
[12:56 AM] Vincentadams: "Maybe."
[1:00 AM] Xenquility: "Alright. On an unrelated note, would you happen to be in any other discord servers?"
[1:01 AM] Xenquility: "Other than these two"
[1:02 AM] Vincentadams: "No just this and id ego super ego. I'm still catching up with the internet at this point so I have not been exposed to more servers. I am mostly focusing on art and processing things."
[1:05 AM] Xenquility: "To be fair, either option would have been bad. Be careful what you say in here. Our current "enemy" accidentally showed us something that he shouldn't have and it had your username in the background user list. Probably means they're able to see what we post here."
[1:06 AM] Xenquility: "It may have just been from the main ID ego server but better to be safe than sorry,"
[1:30 AM] Vincentadams: "That makes me very nervous. Is there a more secure place we could talk? Is that needed? Do you know who this "enemy" is?"
[1:30 AM] Xenquility: "at this point we've pretty much given up on hiding information from the enemy as they always end up with it anyways"
[1:31 AM] Xenquility: "or they already know it before hand"
[1:31 AM] Xenquility: "and one of our current enemies is at least "Four layers" of one of our own members named greth"
[1:31 AM] Xenquility: "so basically"
[1:31 AM] Xenquility: "no"
[1:31 AM] Xenquility: "no"
[1:31 AM] Xenquility: "and no"
[1:39 AM] Xenquility: "we technically have a "safer" text channel but it's only safer because it lacks the prescence of one person who we just found out may not actually be dangerous"
[1:40 AM] Vincentadams: "Would talking there be safer for me? I really do not want to risk being around those people again."
[1:42 AM] Xenquility: "I mean, it wouldn't hurt to try I guess"

((Vincent is added to the "Epitome of Safety", a more secretive channel within the "Safest Haven" Discord server))

[1:42 AM] Xenquility: "@Vincentadams in here"
[1:44 AM] "Vincentadams: So it is safer to say things here? Who might be watching?"
[1:44 AM] Xenquility: "We don't really know who's watching us anymore"
[1:44 AM] Xenquility: "but we do know for sure some guy who goes by Shadowlink is"
[1:45 AM] Xenquility: "and we don't really know if it's safer here"
[1:45 AM] Xenquility: "but it lacks certain people who are "innactive" in this investigation"
[1:45 AM] Xenquility: "and maybe through some weird logic they can't use those accounts to see inside"
[1:45 AM] Xenquility: "but we arent sure"
[4:36 AM] Genius: "so in short"
[4:36 AM] Genius: "nobody knows"

Summary

• Vincent informs the players that he will be uploading a series of videos that artistically depict his journey over the years.
• The player Xenquility mentions a screenshot that was recently posted by BUP that mentioned Vincent. This made Vincent nervous, asking if there was an even more secure location where he could speak with the players.

Summary

• Vincent informs the players that the video Not Yet Gone was about to premiere.

[6:56 AM] Antonio:like tendrils sent to enter the very reality I was in"
[6:58 AM] Lima: "Who sent them?"
[6:58 AM] Antonio: "This, I do not know"
[6:58 AM] Antonio: "The creatures that exist beyond"
[6:59 AM] Antonio: "they were hungry"
[6:59 AM] Antonio: "I had already given up at this point."
[6:59 AM] Antonio: "I was willing to let this abyssal creature take me away"
[7:00 AM] Antonio: "To where, I do not know."
[7:00 AM] Antonio: "The place"
[7:00 AM] Antonio: "is larger than I can comprehend."
[7:00 AM] Antonio: "do you know more about this place?"
[7:00 AM] Antonio: "Are your friends trapped there?"
[7:01 AM] Lima: "Yeah. And if it’s as bad as you say we’d like to get them out."
[7:01 AM] Antonio: "Its only bad if you stop"
[7:01 AM] Antonio: "do not stop"
[7:01 AM] Antonio: "under any circumstances"
[7:01 AM] Antonio: "I stagnated on this tree and that was my downfall"
[7:01 AM] Antonio:I was not brave enough to continue"
[7:02 AM] Lima: "How did you get out?"
[7:02 AM] Antonio: "how i got out is complicated"
[7:02 AM] Antonio: "I did not get out."
[7:02 AM] Antonio: "I was taken out."
[7:02 AM] Antonio: "By an angel."
[7:03 AM] Lima: "An angel?"
[7:04 AM] Antonio: "At least I perceive her as such. Who else could come to me, reassure me, convince me I need to keep trying."
[7:04 AM] Antonio: "She took my hand"
[7:04 AM] Antonio: "Pushed away the Black Storm"
[7:04 AM] Antonio: "and lifted me from this plane"
[7:05 AM] Lima: "Did she have a name?"
[7:05 AM] Antonio: "What is more horrifying"
[7:05 AM] Antonio: "is what was outside"
[7:05 AM] Antonio: "I know not her name"
[7:06 AM] Antonio: "unless I do?? Memories are mixed up and confused"
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "outside of the dark place was this horrible darkness."
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "the green place, I apologize"
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "Darker than is fathomable"
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "there were sounds of water"
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "sounds of fear"
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "sounds of torment"
[7:07 AM] Antonio: "glimpses of light but she assured me that was not the way."
[7:08 AM] Lima: "So she was guiding you through this darkness."
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "She held me"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "and carried me through the darkness"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "I was warned not to look"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "not to listen"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "not to speak"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "I looked"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "I listened"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "I did not speak"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "not because I did not want to"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "but because I couldnt"
[7:09 AM] Antonio: "this fear was unimaginable"
[7:11 AM] Lima: "Well, one out of three aint bad. Then what?"
[7:11 AM] Antonio: "then we were out"
[7:11 AM] Antonio: "she bid me farewel"
[7:11 AM] Antonio: "she left me at my home hopefully safe from any of that cult activity"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I have to wonder"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "Why me"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "if there are others"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "these memoried"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "memories"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I feel like two people at once"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "not in the sense that I am merging with someone"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "but that I am remembering an entirely new live"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I can remember my childhood"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I can remember my pains growing up"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I can remember the stupid decision to join the lunar children"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I remember patrem"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "but also"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I remember another childhood"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I remember another set of pains growing up"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "It feels as if"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "I am two people at the same time"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "gradually I remember moe"
[7:12 AM] Antonio: "more"
[7:16 AM] Lima: "In these other memories, does the name “Nocta” ring a bell?"
[7:16 AM] Antonio: "no"
[7:17 AM] Lima: "Are these other memories entirely different from your own, or are there similarities?"
[7:18 AM] Antonio: "entirely different but there are small similarities."
[7:18 AM] Lima: "Is your name the same in both sets?"
[7:18 AM] Antonio: "How do you mean?"
[7:18 AM] Antonio: "The second memories name?"
[7:19 AM] Lima: "Yeah. In the other set of memories, what do you remember your name being?"
[7:19 AM] Antonio: "I do not remember."
[7:19 AM] Antonio: "I do not know if it is wise to understand exactly "who" the other memories belong to"
[7:19 AM] Antonio: "I already feel as though, through these memories, I am beginning to know too much."
[7:21 AM] Lima: "What does that mean, knowing too much? What consequence is there for having this information?"
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "I feel there is a strong consequence for having this information which is why I am slowly panicking. The more I learn the more aware I am of my position in all of this."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "This if forbidden knowledge. It is very clear that I should now know the things I am learning."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "I feel there is a strong consequence for having this information which is why I am slowly panicking. The more I learn the more aware I am of my position in all of this."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "This if forbidden knowledge. It is very clear that I should not know the things I am learning."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "the further it gets the more I understand why I am here and why we are all here and what this whole things is really about."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "This does not feel comforting in any way"
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "I am doubting myself as a person."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "As in."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "a real person"
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "These memories coming back to me"
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "which one is me?\"
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "I am aware the lunar children have an experimental treatmens.."
[7:23 AM] Antonio: "treatment"
[7:26 AM] Lima: "An experimental treatment for what?"
[7:27 AM] Antonio: "Creating the person they want or need at the time."
[7:27 AM] Lima: "You think they’re using that to give you these memories, to try and turn you into someone else?"
[7:28 AM] Antonio: "that"
[7:28 AM] Antonio: "or hey already did"
[7:28 AM] Antonio: "and leaving this green darkness somehow counteracted the treatment."
[7:28 AM] Antonio: "I can not tell as everything on both side feels so real"
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "It does not feel as if I am becoming two people"
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "it feels like I have to learn to integrate the two minds together to form a third identity if that makes sense"
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "I think not that this has every happened before in regards to the lunar experiments"
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "If it has, they have definitely been terminated immediately"
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "without a doubt"
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "Having inside knowledge on how the lunar children operate, they have no sense of morality."
[7:29 AM] Antonio: "they have a goal and they will stop at nothing to achieve this"
[7:33 AM] Antonio: "i do not mean to end this conversation so quickly"
[7:33 AM] Antonio: "if you have questions for me regarding this topic"
[7:33 AM] Antonio: ((Vincent brings up the idea of having a live QnA in video form))
[7:34 AM] Lima: "Where should we submit questions for it?"
[7:35 AM] Lima: "When?"
[7:37 AM] Antonio: "I will let you know at least a week ahead of time and collaborate so as to hopefully not single anyone out because of life's responsibilities."
[7:37 AM] Lima: "Appreciate it, man."
[7:38 AM] Antonio: "Spread the word. We will figure out schedules and we can plan for the most convenient time."
[7:38 AM] Antonio: "feel free to share this conversation with your trusted allies."
[7:38 AM] Lima: "Will do."
[7:38 AM] Antonio: "I will be in contact"
[7:39 AM] Lima: "Take care, brother."
[7:39 AM] Antonio: "Thank you from the bottom of my heart, friend."
[7:41 AM] Lima: "We’ll figure this out."

Summary

• Vincent begins experiencing strange mental effects, such as remembering a "second childhood". These memories result in him questioning whether or not he is a real person, claiming that if he were to reveal whose memories they were, his world would collapse.
• Vincent explains his journey through the Parallelos, which he fell into after uploading the video 73 68 6f 77 20 6d 65 in 2017. He explains that, in the Parallelos, he had to continue moving to escape the darkness. Eventually, he became mentally and spiritually exhausted, taking a rest as a large tree grew around him.
• Vincent claims that he was about to give up in the Parallelos as a large, dark storm began approaching him. Before the storm reached him, an Angel rescued him from the Parallelos - after which, he woke up back in his home.
