Astral Arc

The Astral Arc is the sixth arc of Johnisdead. This arc began on October 22nd, 2018, and ended on June 5th, 2019. This arc saw the introduction of the Astral Observatory - a group of online paranormal enthusiasts with some unknown connection to the Lunar Children. Throughout this arc, players were required to navigate the Astral Observatory forums and interact with its various members while avoiding the suspicion of Nocta - the mysterious leader of the Astral Observatory.

October 22nd, 2018

• At an unknown time, players discovered that the front page of Johnisdead.com had updated. This page no longer had a title and contained an image of a red-tinted Tyler grinning titled "maj.jpg". This page also featured the audio "recruit.mp3". Hidden within this page's source code was the text "howdoesitwork" repeated 55 times.
• At an unknown time, players discovered that Johnisdead.com now featured a new favicon of a crudely-drawn smiley face.

October 23rd, 2018

• At 1:58 PM, players discovered that the front page of Johnisdead.com had updated. This page was now titled "construction" and once again featured the green, distorted image of Tyler titled "awaken.jpg". This page still contained the audio "recruit.mp3".
• At 2:19 PM, players discovered that Johnisdead.com would once again redirect players if they attempted to access a non-existent page. The pages player would be redirected to seemed to all be previously discovered canon sources such as the Silentdork YouTube channel and Doug's blog.

October 24th, 2018

• At 9:53 AM, the player Jos discovered a new page on Johnsidead.com - "https://johnisdead.com/home.html". This page was simply the previous version of the front page which featured the red-tinted image of Tyler.
• At 9:56 AM, the player Jos discovered that Johnisdead.com would sometimes redirect him to a new website when attempting to access a non-existent page - "https://astralobservatory.net/". This site appeared to be a blog themed around paranormal activity and conspiracies. Players noticed that some of the wording within the blog posts found on this page were distinctly cult-like.

The Astral Observatory
July 28, 2018 - Thoughts
Welcome to the Astral Observatory.

This is a website dedicated to sharing news, opinions, and thoughts from an underground collective that believe in what some may call paranormal or supernatural. We believe in that modern society has pulled a warm blanket over our eyes, trying to lull us into a false reality in which the masses, now imperceptible to the greater machinations of the universe, are more malleable for cooperation.

We have been exposed to some of the truths that shattered that illusion, and now we seek more.

If you are interested in joining us on this journey, bookmark this webpage for further updates, and head on over to our forums for new community of people like us, and we believe, yourself.



Malicious Attack; Forums Offline
October 22, 2018 - News
Dearest believers,

I have some news you may find unfortunate. On Sunday morning, around 12am, this site was taken offline. I do not know how or why, but during that time our bandwidth was temporarily re-purposed for another website, ‘johnisdead.com’. While I’m not sure why this has happened, I can only conclude it was some form of malicious hack. Please stay patient while I work to get my previous posts on this website back up, and work to restore the forums to their former glory. For now the forums are locked.

We will get through this.

Summary

• The announcement welcoming users to the site was posted on July 28th, implying that the Astral Observatory has existed for several months.
• The members of the Astral Observatory believe that society has obscured various truths regarding the nature of the paranormal and reality itself. The author of these posts claims that the Astral Observatory has been exposed to information that has "shattered that illusion", and that now they want more.
• On October 22nd, an announcement was posted on Astral Observatory claiming that Johnisdead.com had stolen their bandwidth on October 21st. This explains why Johnisdead.com now redirects to Astralobservatory.net.
• It is revealed that the Astral Observatory has some forums that are temporarily offline.

• At an unknown time, players discovered that the front page of Astralobservatory.net contained a link to their forums - "https://astralobservatory.net/forum". Unfortunately, these forums were still offline.
• At 10:01 AM, the player Jos discovered that the Javascript code on Johnisdead.com that redirected players could now be read. The redirects were as follows:
Johnisdead.com - https://johnisdead.com

October 25th, 2018

• At 3:28 PM, the player Jos discovered that the generic "404" page on Johnisdead.com that users were sent to before being redirected was now titled "lost?". This page also contained a dark image of Tenebris and the elegy statue titled "ha.png" and hid the text "find your way" in its source code.

October 31st, 2018

• At 4:02 PM, players discovered that the front page of Astralobservatory.net now contained a new announcement titled "Good news and bad news.".

Good news and bad news.
October 31, 2018 - Uncategorized
Hello everyone, I have both good news and bad news to report today, Oct. 31st. The good news is that soon, our forums will be up and running once again! The bad news is, most of the our previous posts have become corrupted. I was unable to salvage anything but the protected forum. Some users may need to find that they will need to re-register themselves, even. We will rebuild.

Summary

• It is revealed that any content on the previous incarnation of the Astral Observatory forums has been lost.
• The author mentions a "protected forum" that contains some archived posts. This implies that there is some degree of secrecy within the inner workings of the Astral Observatory.

These forums contained a header that read "Seeking the truths that lie beyond the grand illusion" and a small image of the "Astral Observatory" location from Majora's Mask.

10/31/18 - "What's up, spookboys" - Wolfcat

Wolfcat 2:30 PM: "I stumbled across this place while looking up some rad music from Majora's Mask. I expected this place to be some sort of Zelda fan-board so I was a bit surprised to see people talking about aliens and stuff, lol. That's good, though. I've always been interested in listening to theories and stuff on YouTube, even ones that people say are a bit "out there" like the hollow Earth and hollow Moon stuff. Anyways, yeah, I'll probably stick around a bit, so what's up guys."
NotAHoax_M12 2:34 PM: "Very cool, someone new! Welcome friend. You will get used to the crazy lot that tends to lurk this place, and you will definitely learn a thing or two!"

• At 4:53 PM, the player Jos created a thread titled "What are your thoughts about visitors?", asking for opinions on aliens.

10/31/18 - "What are your thoughts about visitors?" - Jos

Jos 4:53 PM: "One thing is clear, the universe is so big and vast that saying they don't exist would be ridiculous in the eyes of stadistics I don't think we are the first intelligent species, and I don't think there is not a only planet out there in the life zone of a star. What are your thoughts, you think they came to observe us, or they are contacting the biggest gov in secret? or there is no aliens near our star?"
NotAHoax_M12 5:13 PM: "There are absolutely visitors in our midst brother. You are simply opening your eyes to the grand conspiracy that the US Government has been trying to hide our entire lives: They're here. They're among us. And they are in control."
Jos 5:17 PM: "Everyone needs to open the eyes and fight them, they cannot hide forever, humans will gain true independence from these unknown creatures!"

10/31/18 - Announcement - Astralobservatory.net

New users
October 31, 2018 - Uncategorized
As the forums come back online, and while our previous users find my previous post and continue to rejoin, there is something I would like to address: new users

We have always been a lightly secluded gathering of folk, but we have always embraced new users and brought them into the fold; there is, however, a small influx of users joining that are related to ‘johnisdead’.

I suppose I knew this would happen, and there’s only one way to address. Welcome them, teach them, and embrace them… with one eye open.

These users will be placed into the ‘Internet Detectives’ usergroup as they are identified (that name is what they already call themselves in other parts of the internet).

Keep lips sealed on certain subjects. Stay wary.

Change their minds.

Summary

• Nocta addresses the players joining the forums. He tells the other users to welcome the players, but to keep an eye on them and not reveal any secretive information.
• Nocta seems willing to indoctrinate the players rather than outright banning them.

• At 5:57 PM, players discovered that the front page of Johnisdead.com had changed. The page was now titled "The timer (won’t) reset" and contained an image of a moon with occasional flashes of a smiling face appearing titled "infinitecycle.gif". This page also contained the audio "brokencycles.ogg".
• At an unknown time, players discovered that the front page of Johnisdead.com had changed. The page appeared exactly the same, but the audio file had changed from "brokencycles.ogg" to "brokencycles.mp3". Despite the different file extension, these two tracks were exactly the same.
• At 10:24 PM, players discovered that Tyler had uploaded a new video the Silentdork YouTube channel - "experiments".

10/31/18 - "experiments" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with Tyler recording outside his house. He approaches the "Detour Sign" and begins speaking.


Tyler: "Hey, everybody. So, it's been a little while since my last video, not counting the, uh... that- that... that thing that got uploaded. I mean... I don't really know what to say about that, 'cause I mean by now I'm just kinda numb to the concept of shit getting uploaded to my channel that was not uploaded by me. But, uh... Ow, shit, that's hot. Um... I wanted to do a video today, because if you remember this thing has just kinda popped into my life, and... I mean, it just looks like a fucking "Detour Sign" really, but... there are some strange properties this thing seems to have."

Tyler is now touching the "Detour Sign", inspecting it. While he's touching it, a strange, moaning sound is emitted from the sign and a faint corruption can be seen.

Tyler: "And, uh... You know, I was doing all the, uh, the Lunar Children research. Uh, that's mostly dead-end stuff. A combination of dead-end stuff and scary stuff, because people don't react well whenever you bluntly ask about that kinda shit around here. But, uh... yeah, the "Detour Sign". Um... last video that, uh, I recorded myself and uploaded myself, um... it kinda seemed like the- this thing... there's a bug, get off me. Kinda seemed like this thing sorta causes you to teleport... And, uh... Yeah, not really sure how or why? Um... I am assuming though, whatever this is, it has something to do with, uh, the... the "magic bullshit" regarding that website. Uhh, "Johnisdead.com", which is down right now, by the way. Um... didn't mean for this to be like, uh, update vlog kinda thing, but uh..."

The video cuts ahead.

Tyler: "Shit, sorry. I-I guess standing too close to this thing for too long causes, uh... some kinda, like... I guess, like, device, uh... fuckery. ((Laughs)) But, uh, what was I saying... Oh yeah. Um..."

The video begins corrupting again.

Tyler: "Anyways, I didn't mean for this to be, like, uh... talking about, like... every other thing in my life kinda vlog video, but uh... there's a couple of guys I've been in contact with. Um... Yeah, I should mention, uh, and I'm sure probably plenty of you already know Johnisdead.com and, uh, the Lunar Children website are both down. That's because, uh, this other guy is now kinda in charge of the thing.

Summary

Updates

• YouTube Details:
Description: "Video I recorded about a week before the last one that came out all messed up in my phone and I could not get it to work. But I checked my phone today and suddenly it works now. Must be that Samhain magic I guess. I have not messed with the sign much more since that point. I have been waiting for that guy I hung out with last time to come back again so maybe I could try and see if he would like to help me try a few Ideas I have had with it. Also johnisdead.com seems to have come back since then, but Archive guy never emailed me or anything like he said he would. Not sure what the deal is with that but I assume he is probably just really busy. The cult main site is not back however and idk what the deal is with that."

Jos 11:02 AM: "Mkultra was fucking real i told you, old friends of mine went missing. If i were a gov, i dont see a reason to no start MKultra again when no one is watching."

November 1st, 2018

Wolfcat 10:16 AM: "You guys haven't had any connections to Johnisdead in the past? Like, you guys didn't piss off any spooky deep web people, did you? I mean you guys don't really seem like the type that'd go out and anger anyone purposefully. Well, except for Moonman, but he seems to do it in an endearing way."
moonman31 12:26 PM: "You are learning fast"
NotAHoax_M12 12:33 PM: "No, this john is dead website is new to us. I am convinced it is controlled by some otherworldly force to stop US from SPREADING OUR TRUTHS"
Jos 1:03 PM: "May I hear from those Truths too? I want to learn."
yuukichan 1:12 PM: "Stick around and you will find out!!"

October 31st, 2018

Jos 6:08 PM: "But, let's imagine you are watching tv, and you divert your attention to your mobile phone or something else for like 5 minutes, and when you turn your attention back to the tv, it has switched channels without you noticing. I am crazy or something? It didn't happened recently but it happened several times."

November 1st, 2018

Wolfcat 10:47 AM: "I mean, I live in my Grandma's old ass house from the 1920's and I have't seen any ghosts yet. If anything, seeing signs that ghosts exist would be cool because that'd mean that there's something after death. It'd be comforting, especially if the ghosts were in your own home. They'd be family, essentially."
NotAHoax_M12 12:34 PM: "GHOSTS are the life force that separates us REAL HUMANS with souls from our ALIEN MASTERS..."
Jos 12:35 PM: "Yeah, you never had this feeling of... this is not the only reality but, idk, i feel on my own skin there is something more out there, idk, i want to know what it is..."
moonman31 12:38 PM: "HOAX would convince you an egg sandwich was an alien conspiracy if he could."
Jos 12:40 PM: "Well, who knows if all life in Earth except humans was made by them just to test how we develop or something like that? then chickens would be alien origin."
moonman31 12:43 PM: "Don't give Hoax any new ideas"

Summary

• The player Jos brings up the subject of ghosts. NotAHoax believes that ghosts are a manifestation of our souls - something that aliens do not possess.

I know that the theme of Ben has something to do with the game of Zelda Majoras Mask. and possibly also something about a group called moon children or something and there seems to be another one that is similar called lunar children but I do not know what relationship they have. I have a general idea of what happens. but there are still things that I do not know."
Wolfcat 2:49 PM: "Yeah, the Lunar Children originally split off from the Moon Children. I don't know everything, but I do know that both cults took part in some pretty twisted shit. The Moon Children kinda died off in 2011 but the Lunar Children stuck around. Apparently the Lunar Children even had influence over the local police force and news. I stumbled across this newspaper clipping a while back, and it seems pretty legit to me."

Jos 4:53 PM: "One thing is clear, the universe is so big and vast that saying they don't exist would be ridiculous in the eyes of stadistics I don't think we are the first intelligent species, and I don't think there is not a only planet out there in the life zone of a star. What are your thoughts, you think they came to observe us, or they are contacting the biggest gov in secret? or there is no aliens near our star?"
NotAHoax_M12 5:13 PM: "There are absolutely visitors in our midst brother. You are simply opening your eyes to the grand conspiracy that the US Government has been trying to hide our entire lives: They're here. They're among us. And they are in control."
Jos 5:17 PM: "Everyone needs to open the eyes and fight them, they cannot hide forever, humans will gain true independence from these unknown creatures!"
NotAHoax_M12 5:19 PM: "That is the struggle we fight brother"

November 1st, 2018

Wolfcat 1:35 PM: "Some say they're on our very moon, or maybe even living within it."
NotAHoax_M12 5:38 PM: "That is INTERESTING that you think that way. I have often wondered if they have a base somewhere within our SOLAR SYSTEM although I doubt it is THE MOON."
Jos 5:42 PM: "You must think like them, best place? THE ASTEROID BELT around the solar system, the one between Mars and Jupiter, Thousands and thousands of asteroids there, impossible to detect."

November 2nd, 2018

Wolfcat 9:25 AM: "I'm assuming you're pretty interested in the Majestic 12, based off of your username. I never really looked into it myself, but it always sounded interesting. It's pretty much where the whole classic "Men in Black" thing started, right?"

November 3rd, 2018

yuukichan 5:35 PM: "Hoaxy can talk about Majest 12 for hoursszzzz Σ(￣。￣ノ)ノ"
NotAHoax_M12 11:28 PM: "I know it's real brother I have firsthand experience. I grew up in the nexus of all visitor activity, New Mexico; ever since I was young I knew something was off and I have DEDICATED my LIFE to understanding that which lies beyond the curtain of falsities. Ever since they took her."
yuukichan 11:30 PM: "It is so sad that they did that Hoaxie :c"
Wolfcat 11:31 PM: "Wait, what happened? If you don't mind me asking."
NotAHoax_M12 11:33 PM: "They fucking took her brother. My mother. I watched it happen. Visitors. And the next day suits came and took my dad just the same man. Wanted to take me too. So I ran."
yuukichan 11:35 PM: "Before you detective guys showed up most of us only had each other! We've all been affected by... stuff, like this. We want to find our truths! We have a path and leader to guide us the way!"
Wolfcat 11:40 PM: "Shit, that's awful. I'm really sorry to hear that. We're all just searching for our own truths, too. That's admirable. Just be sure that the truth you seek is your own, not someone else's."

November 4th, 2018

nocta 12:29 AM: "Everyone here has sought the same guidance and walks the same path. We are all trying to break the veil because we had questions about ourselves and our paths that needed to be answered."
CelestialLight 9:43 AM: "I totally agree with you nocta, i have always believed in the Veil and always wanted to see past it."

November 5th, 2018

Wolfcat 12:58 PM: "Not gonna lie, this freaked me out at first, heh..."
Wolfcat 12:58 PM: ((A screenshot of the online users list on the Astral Observatory forums where a forum bot named "Majestic-12 [Bot]" can be seen))
NotAHoax_M12 2:22 PM: "Are you really surprised? The easiest way for the enemy to hide is in PLAIN SITE I'm sure if you look into it's just a Google Bot; that's what they WANT you to believe as they lure you into a false sense of security. Keep an eye open brothers!"
Darkzero 2:33 PM: "The truth is not for everyone to know. simply because not everyone is ready. but one day they will come to understand. like when we understood that the planet was not flat and square. On the other hand, it is round. but until that moment. The truth will be hidden. It does not matter if they fight against something or not. Give your best for remaining faithful to the search for knowledge and truth"

November 6th, 2018

nocta 12:58 AM: "The universe has a vastness to it that is essentially unknowable to us, conceptually. We have mere inklings of sight into these wonders, but very little is accessible to us as a species. Dimensionally beyond what we comprehend. It would follow that in this endlessness, other sapient species are out there, and they may or may not be benevolent."
yuukichan 1:08 AM: "Of course~"

• At 2:44 AM, Nocta shared a new video titled "Sky Children - Kaleidoscope" on a yet undiscovered YouTube channel titled "Kevin Hendricks".

11/11/18 - "Sky Children - Kaleidoscope" - YouTube (Kevin Hendricks)

This video is a music video for the song "Sky Children" by Kaleidoscope. The video features numerous images of children in mystical settings.

Halfway through the video, strange footage begins playing. We first see darkened footage of the inside of Greth's car. Someone wearing a hoodie is driving somewhere. The footage then cuts to what appears to be a ritual. The video is very dark and incredibly hard to make out. A lighter can be seen sitting in front of someone. The footage then cuts to a brief clip of "The Watcher", followed by a black screen.

Following this, the video returns to normal.

Kaleidoscope Lyrics
Released in November 1967

"A million white flowers in a field in the sky

Seemed to spell out a greeting as the children flew by

A guard in a chariot of silver and gold

Gave the children all tickets, then the story he told

Of a time in the future that was sunshine and flowers

And the children grew sleepy in the sky's white towers

They dreamed of the story that the guard had displayed

They saw all the wonders, tiny minds were amazed

They saw candy forests and dragons that breathed fire

On all that was evil in the misty mire

They came to the village where the turtles in caves

Made pies for the people and the lemonade

The people lived out by the sea and each day

The seagulls would wake them as they passed on their way

The people were kindly, they would sing to the sky

And each bright new morning, the sun shone from their eyes

The children passed over and all the people could see

As they dived from the sky to the treacle sea

They bathed on the white sand, minutes turned into hours

And the children all giggled and gave each other flowers

The King from his castle came down to the sea

And he spoke to the children so patiently

He gave them small presents and bid them farewell

And the children unwrapped them, tiny silver bells

Their tinkling floated across the island with ease

And it came back toward them on the perfume breeze

They smiled at the tinkling, they gazed at the sun

And they smiled at each other, pretty little ones

A beautiful white horse came down to the sea

And the children all climbed up as he knelt on one knee

They rode through the valleys and high over hills

And they laughed oh so loudly, their fear to kill

They came to a lakeside of deep velvet and green

And they all stared in wonder at its beauty serene

They climbed from the white horse, they watch as it goes

As they stood by the green lake for to kiss their toes

A boat in the distance was suddenly there

Waiting to take the children to anywhere

The porcupine captain said that he didn't mind

In his coat of black needles, he looked very kind

His crew were six rabbits with fluffy white ears

And the children all stroked them and lost all their fears

They sailed through the sunshine, across the green lake

And they drank lemonade and they ate ice-cream cake

They landed in a dark cave as the boat disappeared

And they all stood in darkness, through the shadows they peered

But out of the blackness shone diamonds so bright

Their tiny white hands shielded eyes from the light

In a pool of quicksilver stood Neptune so wise

And pearls were his white teeth, bright diamonds his eyes

He spoke to the children in a voice of velvet

And he beckoned them to him, in a circle they sat

He told of sky island and of his magic cave

And magic pink seashells to the children he gave

They listened intently as the music came far

From the magic pink seashells and nobody talked

But Neptune had vanished when they lifted their eyes

So they walked from the cave as two kingfishers cried

In the bright shiny sunlight, they got down on one knee

They listened to the sea shells of the magical sea

But the day grew much darker, so they climbed on the breeze

And they floated to the village, and the people were pleased

To see them so happy with their tinkling bells

And the people all listened to the musical shells

But the children were so sad, the time had come to leave

So the people waved goodbye and begged them to believe

Of the wonders they had seen in the island of the sky

And the children said they would and away they did fly

Through the white clouds of no time till forever it seems

And the children stayed children and they lived in their dreams"

November 5th, 2018

Deadhead 1:41 PM: "I remember seeing this weird website a long time ago about these guys called Moon Children or something. I think it was called Youshouldnthavedonethat.net. Some kid named Ben drowned and a lot of people say he turned into a ghost or something like that. Do you guys know anything about it? ghost stuff?"
CelestialLight 2:01 PM: "Never heard of them, so nope."
Wolfcat 2:09 PM: "The Moon Children have a pretty twisted history. I know quite a bit about it if you'd like to hear more. The rabbit hole does deep."
Darkzero 2:16 PM: "I know some things about the subject. but I'm still gathering information. I know that the theme of Ben has something to do with the game of Zelda Majoras Mask. and possibly also something about a group called moon children or something and there seems to be another one that is similar called lunar children but I do not know what relationship they have. I have a general idea of what happens. but there are still things that I do not know."
Wolfcat 2:49 PM: "Yeah, the Lunar Children originally split off from the Moon Children. I don't know everything, but I do know that both cults took part in some pretty twisted shit. The Moon Children kinda died off in 2011 but the Lunar Children stuck around. Apparently the Lunar Children even had influence over the local police force and news. I stumbled across this newspaper clipping a while back, and it seems pretty legit to me."
NotAHoax_M12 3:05 PM: "Very interesting stuff brother"
Wolfcat 3:27 PM: "There's actually a video of someone exploring that old Fishery: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-p6g0VqtTM He finds a lot of weird documents left in the place.

At some point one of them threated me, with calling the police because they didn't know the name of my mother, brother, etc. This... This is getting ridiculus. I'm so alone... At least i have you guys... Idk if ghost aliens or whatever, i just want to... Know the truth behind all of this. i'm walking down the street right now, and using the last drops of internet my mobile company provides. I will go, idk, i will try to survive I guess..."

Jos 5:08 PM: "If I am honest with you, I don't know of many days has passed, i would say a week ago I left my house because the ambience was like super super hostile, i was afraid, this is the only place for entertaining I have. I'm afraid if I go live somewhere else people will do the same, so, I'm just a nomad on the road."
Jos 5:09 PM: "Also, im not from these forums, I just registered 2 weeks ago, just telling my stories."
AMGain 5:23 PM: "Actually, I think that the most important thing right now is finding a hostage or something. And if it even sounds bad, you need to ensure if this could happen you again. We'll help you out dude."

Dense 5:47 PM: "You are the best moonman"
AMGain 5:49 PM: "There is no need to be like this. I'm not a native english speaker, so I try to make me understandable, at least. I don't want to sound stupid or something like that."

Jos 7:16 PM: "What is the point? Why do I exists? What is my purpose?."
Kaiden_Zoromichi 7:25 PM: "Hmph. Assuming you're telling the truth (though I doubt it), then I know what you are going through in a way."

Wolfcat 9:16 PM: We don’t want to force you into anything
Wolfcat 9:16 PM: Even though that sounds literally impossible, actually
Wolfcat 9:16 PM: Nocta seemed pretty adamant about “changing our minds” about something, as if he’s heard of us before.
Wolfcat 9:16 PM: However, the only thing we’ve ever really been against is having a big moon god eat our planet.
Wolfcat 9:16 PM: And I don’t really buy the whole “Johnisdead.com stealing bandwidth” story
Wolfcat 9:16 PM: Do you know anything about what’s going on with that or nah?

I don't know yet how to describe it, but is a fountain of infinite determination, when something bad happens, and all the bad energy comes in, it just destroys it, and makes me pretty stronger emotionally. It is not based on a person, just an entity which mission is just fight those bad energies at all cost, lol. Do you have one or had tried?"

November 14th, 2018

• At 4:10 PM, the player ARGdov sent Nocta a PM on the Astral Observatory forums claiming that he was no longer a member of the Internet Detectives and that he now truly wished to discover the truth.

11/14/18 - ARGdov's PM - Astral Observatory Forums (PM's)

"To put it simply, I'm trying to find answers just like anyone else here. I was with Internet Detectives for a considerable ammount of time it's true but I left for a number of reasons which would be too complicated to enumerate here. To put it simply, the number of unreconcilable differences I had with most of the members eventually made me feel I had to leave. Not to mention, I've encountered some strange stuff with them as, stuff which no one in the group was able to explain. I was looking for answers and it seemed there approach wasn't garnering the results I was looking for, so there seemed no point in staying with them.

With that said, I did get wind of this place from an old contact of mine who's part of the group (I don't believe he's joined yet though I haven't asked for certain). Despite there presence here the forum itself did sound promising, provided I was allowed to work on my own. The detectives are slow and often times come to rather poor conclusions, to the point that they've put people at risk in the past as well. I want answers and they clearly aren't going to be of any help. They've tried to save lives and have failed, and I question at times wether those lives were worth saving."

• At 5:25 PM, Moonman briefly chatted with the players in the Safehaven Discord server.

11/14/18 - Chat with Moonman - Discord (Safehaven)

((A lot of shitposting between players occurs))
moonman31 5:25 PM: wow
moonman31 5:25 PM: edgy
Jos 5:28 PM: edgylord

November 17th, 2018

• At 6:44 PM, the player ARGdov replied to Nocta's message with a PM on the Astral Observatory forums explaining that he wishes to learn to real truth behind all the recent going-on's.

11/17/18 - ARGdov's PM - Astral Observatory Forums (PM's)

"I want to know to put it simply, "the truth". Not the nebulous thing that ID constantly yammer about but really and truly, the truth. I don't know what you have to do with Johnisdead or any of the cults that the detectives have encountered (if you have any connection at all in the first place), but it seems you know something worthwhile. I've encountered so many bizarre things, even before joining ID. Some of it seemed to point to the moon cults, and I guess specifically 'Luna', whoever she really is (another of my many questions. I'm not so quick to dismiss the claims of the MC or the LC....those groups certainly have power, power which isn't natural). You told the members here that they should try and change the ID's minds about something, I'd like to know what that "something is" and what they're wrong about

If I may ask, who are you, anyways? You seem to know a bit more about me than I do about you.

I'm convinced that ID are putting people at risk by interfering and that they're attempts to learn the truth have lead them to come to inaccurate conclusions. I don't trust the few allies they made when I was with them, and I feel you can clear things up."

I have always been really interested in this sort of thing, so I'd like to know if you guys have any well-known native cryptids or stories about them."

CircleHunter 3:21 AM: "Yeah, I feel that. I wish I could name more that fit that criteria than just the Slender Man and Rake. Do you have any spooky creatures of that nature to talk about in particular? I'd be down for some of that."

November 5th, 2018

CelestialLight 1:08 PM: "I Believe in this, but don't really know if others feel the same. It's a place, that is called the spirit world were spirits come from, to this realm. They say when the veil is thin on Halloween that the veil between worlds open, to where the spirits can come through, i believe that really happens. I hope, i don't seem crazy believing in that. Because, i can feel the spiritual connection grow stronger, through energy on Halloween. Because, when you go outside and feel the air, it feels different more spookier."
Darkzero 1:26 PM: "It seems that at certain times under some circumstances. You can feel things in different ways. It does not depend so much on whether the connection is active. I feel that it depends on some actions in the physical world that activates the transition between the two worlds. some associate the lunar stages, or the level of the sea. even astrological phenomena to the changes. but there is much mysticism around the subject of the spiritual world."

November 22nd, 2018

At some point one of them threated me, with calling the police because they didn't know the name of my mother, brother, etc. This... This is getting ridiculus. I'm so alone... At least i have you guys... Idk if ghost aliens or whatever, i just want to... Know the truth behind all of this. i'm walking down the street right now, and using the last drops of internet my mobile company provides. I will go, idk, i will try to survive I guess..."
Wolfcat 8:43 PM: "Are you being serious right now? Dude, find a hotel or someplace to sleep. If you need money can try to send you some, but idk how exactly paypal works when different currencies are involved. Any idea what's going on?"

November 5th, 2018

Deadhead 4:10 AM: "That sounds rather strange. I hope things will sort out in time."

November 12th, 2018

AMGain 5:05 PM: "Do you remember where you have been the last week? Something strange that could make you think? Every piece to make the puzzle."
Jos 5:08 PM: "If I am honest with you, I don't know of many days has passed, i would say a week ago I left my house because the ambience was like super super hostile, i was afraid, this is the only place for entertaining I have. I'm afraid if I go live somewhere else people will do the same, so, I'm just a nomad on the road."
Jos 5:09 PM: "Also, im not from these forums, I just registered 2 weeks ago, just telling my stories."
AMGain 5:23 PM: "Actually, I think that the most important thing right now is finding a hostage or something. And if it even sounds bad, you need to ensure if this could happen you again. We'll help you out dude."
moonman31 5:43 PM: "Wow ok edgelord"
moonman31 5:43 PM: "If I am honest with you, I don't know of many days has passed, i would say a week ago I left my house because the ambience was like super super hostile, i was afraid, this is the only place for entertaining I have. I'm afraid if I go live somewhere else people will do the same, so, I'm just a nomad on the road." Honestly dude if you are serious, you could contact the police, depending on how much you trust them."
Jos 5:46 PM: "Minus zero, honestly."
Dense 5:47 PM: "You are the best moonman"
AMGain 5:49 PM: "There is no need to be like this. I'm not a native english speaker, so I try to make me understandable, at least. I don't want to sound stupid or something like that."
Jos 5:51 PM: "No no its ok, the thing is that you just said hostage, that means when a criminal detains a civilian for protecting against authorities, like a bank rob lol"
AMGain 5:53 PM: "Oh god. I wanted to say a hotel, a place to sleep."
Jos 7:16 PM: "What is the point? Why do I exists? What is my purpose?."
Kaiden_Zoromichi 7:25 PM: "Hmph. Assuming you're telling the truth (though I doubt it), then I know what you are going through in a way."
Jos 7:45 PM: "I know mane, i can't still find any reason why everything of thus is happening, I just know the gov has something to do, they first take people apart from society, and then those disappear, that wont be my case, im fine."
moonman31 11:18 PM: "Kaiden has an entire lore and continuity built around his origin story it's fucking incredible"
Jos 9:28 AM: "Whats the story?"

November 23rd, 2018

Kaiden_Zoromichi 2:23 PM: "Tch. He's just trying to make fun of me."

November 24th, 2018

• At 12:09 PM, the player Zero discovered that Astralobservatory.net was completely offline.
• At 2:29 PM, the player Deadhead discovered that Astralobservatory.net was once again online. The site now contained a new announcement on the front page titled "Website temporarily down, but we’re back.".

11/24/18 - Announcement - Astralobservatory.net

Today we had a small DDOS attack on our servers. This caused our account to be temporarily suspended. It would be easy to say it was the “Internet Detectives”, but I can’t be sure that is the case. It would be inappropriate of us to try and assume anything in this instance, so we will move forward, as we have always planned

Summary

• Nocta explains that Astralobservatory.net was offline for a brief time due to a sudden DDOS attack. He claims it would be easy to blame the players for this attack, but he isn't completely sure it was them.
• This post contained bolded letters that spelled out "he is trapped".

• At 2:37 PM, the player Jos created a topic on the Astral Observatory forums titled "Page suspended".

11/24/18 - "Page suspended" - Jos

Jos 2:37 PM: "They don't want us to find the truth. There is nothing wrong with AO.net, so why would they suspend the page? Because the gov want to hide stuff or anything threatening their veil."
Z3R0 2:48 PM: "8-)"
Jos 3:42 PM: "8-)"
Kaiden_Zoromichi 8:41 PM: "Heh, as far as I can tell you're partially to blame."

Summary

• Kaiden believes that the players are partially responsible for the DDOS attack on Astralobservatory.net.

• At 3:18 PM, the player Jos discovered a new page on Johnisdead.com - "https://johnisdead.com/heistrapped.html". This page was titled "trapped" and contained an image of a pained Greth titled "trapped.gif". This page also contained a rendition of the "Astral Observatory" theme from Majora's Mask titled "astral.mp3".
• At 3:55 PM, the player Wolfcat discovered that the audio "astral.mp3" hid the text "what do you think you can do to save them" in its source code.
• At 5:36 PM, Nocta joined the Safehaven Discord server and began chatting with the players. He had no avatar.

11/24/18 - Chat with Nocta - Discord (Safehaven)

nocta 5:36 PM: I have seen the most incredible light
nocta 5:36 PM: It would be easy to assume you could change anything, but you can’t
nocta 5:36 PM: Why do you insist on this?
nocta 5:36 PM: Really
Jos 5:40 PM: Because is the right thing to do, doing otherwise would be illogical.
nocta 5:40 PM: What is right?
Wolfcat 5:42 PM: What exactly are you after?
nocta 5:42 PM: What are you after?
Jos 5:44 PM: Well, certanly hunting down a person since 2011 is not right. yet, we only want the safety of that person.
Wolfcat 5:44 PM: Keeping our friends safe and uncovering the truth
nocta 5:47 PM: So, you think infiltrating my forums and worrying my friends is the way to do it?
Dense 5:49 PM: We are not worrying your friends
Jos 5:50 PM: No, I did not infiltrate nowere, all the people there are cool and it has been nice to meet them, and i would still be around those forums to speak to those, the thing is, is that i want Tyler safe, you care for your freinds safety, so i want him to be safe too.
Dense 5:51 PM: Also
Dense 5:51 PM: Where
Dense 5:51 PM: Is
Dense 5:51 PM: Him
Wolfcat 5:51 PM: We don’t mean any ill will among the forum goers, but it’s clear that this is all connected, and there is definitely something fucked up going on beneath the surface. If they are worried, then they probably have reason to be.
Jos 5:53 PM: And do not confuse me, i seek the same truth no matter what group i may represent. Today I can be an ID, tomorrow i can be another thing if the truth is there.
Dense 5:58 PM: :hidden: HOLY SHIT :hidden:
Wolfcat 6:16 PM: Look, on the off-chance that you aren’t in league with that cult, I promise you we mean no harm to your friends. However, we have more than enough evidence that proves you and your website is at least connected to it.
nocta 6:26 PM: All things are easy to believe
nocta 6:26 PM: When you have only been spoonfed information from one side of the story
nocta 6:26 PM: That being said, you assume too much
Jos 6:27 PM: Then help us see the other side so we can know whats going on
Jos 6:27 PM: Please.
Wolfcat 6:29 PM: Your own YouTube channel raises suspicion, not to mention the appearance of your site on Johnisdead.com. We’re just as suspicious of that website as you all are, so you cannot blame us for being intrigued whenever you are randomly connected to it.
Wolfcat 6:29 PM:If you have an explanation, then please tell us, but surely you can see why we’re suspicious at best.
Jos 6:31 PM: I think we may been deceived to be confronted, i mean, i think there is a third party controlling all of this, if you say there is another side of the story
Jos 6:31 PM: if that is the case, confronting would be illogical, we need to put all the info in the table to see whats going on.

Summary

• Nocta claims that the players cannot change anything, and all they're doing is worrying his friends.
• Nocta implies that the players have only been given information from one side of the story and they assume to much.

• At 8:41 PM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in the "Ok, this is important." thread once again.

11/24/18 - "Ok, this is important." - Jos

November 4th, 2018

Jos 6:59 PM: "Today, officially, I've lost contact with every physical person I've ever meet that I had a social interaction with, all my family, gone, friends, gone, know people, they don't even remember me, no one of them. At some point one of them threated me, with calling the police because they didn't know the name of my mother, brother, etc. This... This is getting ridiculus. I'm so alone... At least i have you guys... Idk if ghost aliens or whatever, i just want to... Know the truth behind all of this. i'm walking down the street right now, and using the last drops of internet my mobile company provides. I will go, idk, i will try to survive I guess..."
Wolfcat 8:43 PM: "Are you being serious right now? Dude, find a hotel or someplace to sleep. If you need money can try to send you some, but idk how exactly paypal works when different currencies are involved. Any idea what's going on?"

November 5th, 2018

Deadhead 4:10 AM: "That sounds rather strange. I hope things will sort out in time."

November 12th, 2018

AMGain 5:05 PM: "Do you remember where you have been the last week? Something strange that could make you think? Every piece to make the puzzle."
Jos 5:08 PM: "If I am honest with you, I don't know of many days has passed, i would say a week ago I left my house because the ambience was like super super hostile, i was afraid, this is the only place for entertaining I have. I'm afraid if I go live somewhere else people will do the same, so, I'm just a nomad on the road."
Jos 5:09 PM: "Also, im not from these forums, I just registered 2 weeks ago, just telling my stories."
AMGain 5:23 PM: "Actually, I think that the most important thing right now is finding a hostage or something. And if it even sounds bad, you need to ensure if this could happen you again. We'll help you out dude."
moonman31 5:43 PM: "Wow ok edgelord"
moonman31 5:43 PM: "If I am honest with you, I don't know of many days has passed, i would say a week ago I left my house because the ambience was like super super hostile, i was afraid, this is the only place for entertaining I have. I'm afraid if I go live somewhere else people will do the same, so, I'm just a nomad on the road." Honestly dude if you are serious, you could contact the police, depending on how much you trust them."
Jos 5:46 PM: "Minus zero, honestly."
Dense 5:47 PM: "You are the best moonman"
AMGain 5:49 PM: "There is no need to be like this. I'm not a native english speaker, so I try to make me understandable, at least. I don't want to sound stupid or something like that."
Jos 5:51 PM: "No no its ok, the thing is that you just said hostage, that means when a criminal detains a civilian for protecting against authorities, like a bank rob lol"
AMGain 5:53 PM: "Oh god. I wanted to say a hotel, a place to sleep."
Jos 7:16 PM: "What is the point? Why do I exists? What is my purpose?."
Kaiden_Zoromichi 7:25 PM: "Hmph. Assuming you're telling the truth (though I doubt it), then I know what you are going through in a way."
Jos 7:45 PM: "I know mane, i can't still find any reason why everything of thus is happening, I just know the gov has something to do, they first take people apart from society, and then those disappear, that wont be my case, im fine."
moonman31 11:18 PM: "Kaiden has an entire lore and continuity built around his origin story it's fucking incredible"
Jos 9:28 AM: "Whats the story?"

November 23rd, 2018

Kaiden_Zoromichi 2:23 PM: "Tch. He's just trying to make fun of me."
ARGdov 2:41 PM: "care to elaborate? any info could be useful. this is worrying."

November 24th, 2018

Kaiden_Zoromichi 8:41 PM: "Hmmm. I have talked about all of this before but I suppose it couldn't hurt to elaborate again."
ARGdov 9:42 PM: "if you had I've missed it. I'll skim through your posts to find it I suppose."
Kaiden_Zoromichi 10:03 PM: "I believe the site shutting down before removed the old posts. Tch, you are very impatient. There is a lot of... new people. Sigh."

Summary

• Kaiden implies that he will share his odd past experiences with the players. It's likely Kaiden is simply referring to his past roleplaying adventures, however.

November 26th, 2018

• At 1:44 PM, Moonman and Nocta became active in the Safehaven Discord server and began chatting with the players. Many messages in this chat were deleted before they could be properly archived, so a simple approximation is given in their place.

11/26/18 - Chat with Moonman and Nocta - Discord (Safehaven)

((Moonman says that it’s time to clear some things up))
Dense 1:44 PM: Yeet the fuck
nocta 1:44 PM: what are you doing?
Jos 1:45 PM: okay
Jos 1:45 PM: lets me search the meaning of that term first
Dense 1:45 PM: Oh
Jos 1:46 PM: oh, i see, yup, i’m against no one
((Moonman claims that no one in this chat is enemies with one another))
nocta 1:46 PM: Idiot
((Moonman asks if Nocta can just let it go))
nocta 1:46 PM: No.
Jos 1:47 PM: sorry my lenguage is not english i think i fucked up a little up there, i am agaisnt no one, all friendly and nice
((Moonman says that Nocta was calling him an idiot, not Jos))
Jos 1:47 PM: i see
Jos 1:47 PM: Nocta, I think we need to clarify stuff, lets sit down, and lets talk cool
nocta 1:48 PM: Ha.
nocta 1:48 PM: I will see you all around.
((Nocta leaves the Discord server))
Jos 1:49 PM: Are you sure this is the correct route?
Jos 1:49 PM: I hope so
Jos 1:49 PM: He is like
Jos 1:49 PM: “you are the bad guys oooo so lets talk about it nocta and he is like no0o0o0”
((Moonman claims that is not how the situation actually is))
((Moonman believes his life might actually be in danger at this point))
moonman31 1:51 PM: but
moonman31 1:51 PM: I can reveal some things that I could not before
moonman31 1:51 PM: The more you discover
moonman31 1:51 PM: The more I can reveal
moonman31 1:51 PM: It seems.
Jos 1:52 PM: So, you know about this “he is trapped?”
Jos 1:52 PM: Could mean tyler, could mean Samuel who hasnt posted a single time
((Moonman claims he knows nothing about that phrase))
Jos 1:52 PM: aw
Jos 1:52 PM: so, what is the new stuff you can reveal?
((Moonman says he needs to know who all is in the chat))
Jos 1:52 PM: ok
Jos 1:52 PM: so, we have Wolfcat, me, Circle Hunter, Dense, Glad Mans, Bianca, and Raven
Jos 1:52 PM: no one else
Jos 1:52 PM: x
Jos 1:52 PM: lets see if others are here
Jos 1:52 PM: post x
Wolfcat 1:55 PM: I think it’s just you, me, jos, and raven
((Moonman says he believes there is a spy among our ranks))
Jos 1:57 PM: I trust you, I have a theory but I don’t want to reveal just to mantain stuff secure
Jos 1:57 PM: anyway, i will find the spy soon or later
Jos 1:57 PM: and i have the perfect idea
Jos 1:57 PM: I see
((Moonman says “Well…”))
Jos 1:57 PM: Nothing else? well, We will be careful with what we say… thank you
Dense 2:03 PM: Oh nocta left
((Moonman says he was waiting for a response from us))
Jos 2:04 PM: oh, sorry, non english native so idk when something follows a reply lol
Wolfcat 2:04 PM: Dense is also here
((Moonman says “Obviously”))
Jos 2:04 PM: so, why are you at line?
((Moonman says we are right about some things and wrong about others))
Jos 2:04 PM: please, tell us the wrong part so we can see the both sides of the coin
((Moonman says we are right about “Greth”))
Jos 2:04 PM: Well, he is probably Nocta? The Johnisdead page points to to it, and have bunch of evidence, still, it could be wrong info.
Jos 2:04 PM: Nocta
((Moonman says that Greth is not Nocta, at least not as far as he knows))
((Moonman confirms that he is Greth, but he doesn’t know us and Greth Vlogs is not familiar to him))
((Moonman says that he is not the person on the front page of Johnisdead, despite being Greth))
Jos 2:04 PM: Sorry, I have no words, im confused… Then, the guy from the front page must be another guy who looks really the same
Wolfcat 2:11 PM: It sounds to me like some stupid magic shit is going on
Wolfcat 2:11 PM: More time bullshit
Jos 2:11 PM: except if you cant remember
Jos 2:11 PM: because of the sp00ky stuff
Jos 2:11 PM: wait
Jos 2:11 PM: then
Wolfcat 2:13 PM: back when YSHDT.net was up, a lot of strange things were happening with various timelines converging into one another
Wolfcat 2:13 PM: maybe this is still happening somehow
Wolfcat 2:13 PM: as crazy as that sounds
Jos 2:15 PM: what if there are 3 , you, the greth from the vlogs, and the sp00ky one
Jos 2:15 PM: for some reason
Jos 2:15 PM: what if Patrem has been converted into a vessel for Kevin who is using the vlogs greth as vessel?
Jos 2:15 PM: idk,
moonman31 2:16 PM: Now you’re losing me
Wolfcat 2:17 PM: I mean, that’d be a double vessel.
((Moonman says he doesn’t know anything about that))
Wolfcat 2:17 PM: It seems like either way, Nocta is Kevin
Wolfcat 2:17 PM: That much we can be certain of
Wolfcat 2:17 PM: At least to some extent
((Moonman asks about Patrem))
Jos 2:17 PM: there is this entity called patrem, it needs a vessel to survive, a physical, weak body to assimilate,
Jos 2:17 PM: in the greth videos and the jid page, everything reffering this entity, is purple
Jos 2:17 PM: yet
Jos 2:17 PM: in the jid page, nocta has been referring as this purple sp00ky greth
Jos 2:17 PM: but nocta is kevin
((Moonman says he’s not sure about that))
Wolfcat 2:19 PM: Maybe the “Wayward cretin” is just fucking with us some more
Wolfcat 2:19 PM: Tenebris, I mean
Jos 2:19 PM: What im saying “Kelbris” needs a body, maybe kevin did the same when patrem was weak, and took over patrem and then used patrem to vessel this sp00ky greth, so, kevin would be nocta at the same time of Greth vlogs
((Moonman says there are some very dark things happening on Astral Observatory))
((Moonman says he’s frustrated because he believes it might be too late to stop it))
Jos 2:19 PM: i can use a proxy and access the truth part, if you are willing to help me…
Wolfcat 2:20 PM: Do you know if there’s any possible way for us to access The Truth?
Wolfcat 2:20 PM: or is that still just completely out of reach
((Moonman says that the password has been changed and that he no longer knows it))
Jos 2:21 PM: shit, i should have asked earlier, but i didnt wanted look like impolite
CircleHunter 2:21 PM: I am here now
((Moonman says the old password was “pqbxhtlopa”))
Wolfcat 2:21 PM: oh fuck
Wolfcat 2:21 PM: shit
CircleHunter 2:21 PM: Whoa
Wolfcat 2:21 PM: the shit that was on jid.com
Jos 2:22 PM: FUCK
CircleHunter 2:22 PM: That means
CircleHunter 2:22 PM:Try the current title
Jos 2:22 PM: Now is when i want a tardis you know
Jos 2:22 PM: The timer wont reset tought
((Moonman asks what timer Jos is referring to))
Jos 2:22 PM: it was an old page in jid
Jos 2:22 PM: just a referrence tho
((Moonman says that it reminded him of something))
Jos 2:22 PM: what about?
Jos 2:22 PM: maybe its important
Jos 2:22 PM: i can provide old images of the page if that helps
Wolfcat 2:26 PM: Maybe “pqbxh” and “tlopa” on JiD was merely a hint towards The Truth, and not something about Nocta
CircleHunter 2:26 PM: Damn we were too late then
CircleHunter 2:26 PM: Has jid changed?
Wolfcat 2:27 PM: Not on my end
((Moonman says a post has been deleted since he lost access to The Truth))
Jos 2:27 PM: i will find that post
Jos 2:27 PM it must be the new password being hidden
Wolfcat 2:28 PM: I think it was the post in The Truth
Wolfcat 2:28 PM: There used to be two posts in there
((Moonman confirms he was talking about the post that was deleted in The Truth))
CircleHunter 2:28 PM: I want to test something
Jos 2:28 PM: aw
Wolfcat 2:28 PM: And the older post was deleted
Jos 2:28 PM: it was the old one right
Wolfcat 2:28 PM: But the newer one remained
CircleHunter 2:28 PM: Just to be absolutely sure here, you were around for jadusable and posted the new wave bossa nova, right?
CircleHunter 2:28 PM: Or was that this other greth?
((Moonman says he did in fact submit the NWBN during YSHDT.net))
CircleHunter 2:28 PM: Ok, hmm
((Moonman says that the timeline seems similar up to a point))
((Moonman begins acting strangely and posts “Kevin, Tyler, Tenebris))
((Moonman then deletes this post))
CircleHunter 2:28 PM: Please tell me someone was paying attention to that
CircleHunter 2:35 PM: Kevin, tyler, tenebris
((Moonman says "save please tyler”))
Raven 2:37 PM: He’s deleting everything
Wolfcat 2:37 PM: We’ll save Tyler.
((Moonman then says “no save please”))
Jos 2:41 PM: what is going on
moonman31 2:41 PM: tylers
moonman31 2:41 PM: STOP IT
moonman31 2:41 PM: EVERYTHING IS TYLER AND NOTHING IS TYLE
Wolfcat 2:42 PM: Who’s doing this to you?
moonman31 2:43 PM: t\
moonman31 2:45 PM: he
moonman31 2:45 PM: is
moonman31 2:45 PM: Today at 14:16
((Users noticed that Moonman’s post from 2:16 now had an alien emote reaction))
((Wolfcat posted an image of the Bow and Arrow))
moonman31 2:47 PM: I feel ok
moonman31 2:47 PM: for now
moonman31 2:48 PM: what did you do?
Wolfcat 2:49 PM: Can you tell us who he is? Do you know? The man with the alien mask?
Jos 2:49 PM: lets say
Jos 2:49 PM: its sp00ky stuff too
moonman31 2:49 PM: The what
Jos 2:49 PM: but we did it to save you
Jos 2:49 PM: wait, you cant remember? few seconds ago
moonman31 2:50 PM: The man with the alien mask?
Wolfcat 2:51 PM: Was he not the one who was just hurting you?
moonman31 2:52 PM: I don’t know what does that
Jos 2:54 PM: lets see if this works ?
((Jos posts Epona’s Song))
moonman31 2:55 PM: ???
moonman31 2:55 PM: Wait are you
moonman31 2:55 PM: god,im ((this was originally a cipher))
moonman31 2:55 PM: hold on
moonman31 2:55 PM: someone is at the door
Jos 2:55 PM: ok
Wolfcat 2:55 PM: wait no
Jos 2:55 PM: but dont open
Wolfcat 2:55 PM: don’t pull this
Jos 2:55 PM: waito
Wolfcat 2:56 PM: dude you KNOW this never ends up well
Jos 2:56 PM: before he opens the door
((Jos posted an image of the Stone Mask))
((Moonman then posted the message “too late”))
