Astral Arc

The Astral Arc is the fourth arc of Johnisdead. This arc began on February 4th, 2017, and ended on June 5th, 2019. This arc covered the aftermath of The Truth Arc, introducing a new character named Greth and his connection to 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. Meanwhile, Tyler began investigating the Lunar Children on his own terms.

4/3/17 - "Foolish child" - YouTube (Vincent Adams)

This video begins with Vincent recording himself outside at night.

Vincent: "(Sigh) Just found my phone on the sidewalk. I don't know what the hell's going on here, what with the waking up in the park bullshit and the kid and the website... those people. (Indecipherable)."

Vincent approaches a building and opens the door.

Vincent: "Stupid..."

Patrem: "Foolish child, did you think you would remember this?"

Vincent: "...Get on my laptop."

Vincent enters his room and the video ends.

April 23rd, 2017

• At 6:30 PM, players discovered that a new video had been uploaded to the Silentdork YouTube channel - "Going to kevins".

4/23/17 - "Going to kevins" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with Tyler walking through a dark house. A timestamp appears in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen: 4/11/15, meaning this was recorded on November 4th. Footage of Rosa from Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines can faintly be seen warning to "Not open it", as Tyler approaches a door. As he turns the knob, an image of Doug smiling can be seen while strange noises play. Tyler turns to his right as Doug attacks him. We are shown either Tenebris or Regiminis holding a sign that says, "SHE TOLD YOU NOT TO OPEN IT". The video cuts to black as a soft, distorted voice is heard.

"We need to lock him up. But (Indecipherable) first. Just don’t let him kill himself."

The video cuts back, now showing the inside of a dim server room. The timestamp now says ??/??/15.

Tyler: "This place is so fucking huge. (Indecipherable). I don't know who the fuck these people are. Hey, at least I found my fucking phone. Now if I can just find a fucking exit. What the fuck is this shit?"

The video cuts to black again before showing Tyler inside of a dark room with the camera pointed at a strange lamp. Loud, muffled drum can be heard in the background.

Tyler: "Okay, I managed to find something like a fuckin’ lamp. This is the only light. This is the only lamp. I don't know what the fuck these people are doing in here, it’s dark as shit. I think the exit might be through this way."

The video cuts to Tyler walking around in a dark room.

Tyler: "It’s always so fucking dark… I don’t think anyone’s in here. Not gonna risk turning the light on though. I think I’m almost out… What the fuck is this fucking…"

The video cuts, as evident by the audio.

Tyler: "Fuck fuck fuck, I’m going in fucking circles… Damn it, it’s so fucking dark. I’m fucking walking through walls or some shit. My eyes are fucking playing tricks on me cause I’m fucking teleporting or some shit through all these fucking rooms cause I keep seeing the same shit again and again-"

Tyler suddenly teleports into a new room, now staring outside through a metal grate on the wall.

Tyler: "Oh wait, wait, what? What the fuck? Fuck it, fucking solid metal fucking door! It’s fucking-"

A loud voice suddenly rings out as the screen flashes green.

“HURRY, STOP THE-"

Tyler yells as the video cuts to black. Distorted voices can once again be heard.

"((Indecipherable)) Did you get Douglas up here? Good. Take the Harbinger’s Link to the interrogation chamber. I have a few questions. ((Indecipherable))."

We are shown some dim lights slowly gliding overhead as if someone were being transported through a hospital on a bed. The video then cuts back, now showing the inside of a freezer. Ice can be seen on the floor. Tyler's breathing is pained and he is obviously freezing.

Tyler: "Jokes on you, I happen to fuckin’ like the cold…"

Tyler begins beating on the door of the freezer.

Tyler: "Fucking pricks... fucking pricks, let me out. Let me out."

Tyler films the fans on the back wall of the freezer. As he does so, distorted voices can be heard:

"You’re wasting your battery."

Tyler: "Maybe I can get out through these vents..."

The video cuts as another distorted voice can be heard:

"Really, you should listen to yourself. Just this once."

The video cuts twice more as Tyler is seen lying on the ground in pain. Just before the video ends, someone enters the freezer and picks Tyler off of the ground by his hair.

Summary

• This video shows what happened to Tyler in 2015 after he departed for Kevin's house. Upon opening a door, Tyler was attacked by Doug and taken to the Spire. While there, he attempted to find his way out, only to get stuck in a spatial loop of sorts - constantly coming across the same rooms.

• At an unknown time, players discovered that the front page of Youshouldnthavedonethat.net began updating with journal entries from Hope - the young cultist girl who spoke with players through the sign-in page during the previous arc:

4/23/17 - Hope's Journals - YSHDT.net

I guess it's time to clear things up.

Hello. I don't know who's out there, and I'm not sure I want to. Kinda didn't think I'd ever feel the need to come here again, but I feel drawn to this place like there's unfinished business.

I'm going to tell you what's happened so far.

I'm not sure where to start, so it may take a while to get my head in the right place for this.

Maybe it would be best to tell anyone reading this that I used to be involved in the Lunar Children. They had their ways of molding young and impressionable minds. I was one of them and so were several of my friends. I wish I knew why we fell for all of it, but knowing wouldn't change anything. If we'd been smarter, maybe one of my friends wouldn't be comatose right now.

There was a big event where we were meeting a while back. I was not told exactly what was going on, being a lowly peon like I was. That was the day of the incident that ruined my life. There was a lot of people, too many people, and I wish I had known about the outsider guy they brought in sooner than I did. God, that day was the worst.

I'm really sorry if it sounds like I'm beating around the bush, I just don't know if anyone who poses a threat to me can see this. I've done well to stay pretty low so far, so who can blame me for being paranoid, right? So, once we made it out of there, a few of us stayed together for a while. I don't know how many actually escaped.

When it had all settled, it was just us hiding out in a motel. I couldn't go back to my parents, we were so far away and I didn't have the guts to return after running away like I did. When we ran out of money, we had to find another way. One of us was very sick from the start, I don't know what happened to make him like this. It got worse. One day, he was just unresponsive. We didn't have anywhere to keep him safe, so we sought shelter in the only place we knew of. We went back to the site of the disaster and hoped that whatever had caused so much pain was no longer there. It wasn't there.

I mean that in two ways. When we arrived, it was just untouched as if nothing had happened. We went inside, and it seemed like the morning of the incident. There was no ruin, no bodies. The sanctuary doors were still attached, like the blast that took them off was just a dream. How was that possible? Even weirder was that later that night, as we slept in the most comfortable pews we could find, I heard a voice that sounded impossibly close to me. I couldn't tell what it was saying, but it sounded familiar.

The other way that I meant that it wasn't there...well, that's harder to explain. We had to leave in order to find food. Well, I did. The others stayed behind. I wasn't gone for long. I came back to find some kids playing near the entrance to the holy place (why do I still call it that?), and that it was smoking ruins. I panicked. I ran to the entrance and screamed for the others. I was hysterical, and crying, and by the time I got to the door, I noticed that the place was just fine. I was met at the door and assured that everything was okay.

But the kids were still playing. They didn't turn to see me. They just had no knowledge that anything was wrong in the first place. Could they hear me? Were they real? Was I hallucinating the fire? I didn't know at the time.

Hell, I don't even know if I know now. Later, I came to find that no matter what, it's impossible to get the attention of anyone outside the building or its property from within it. In fact, I'm not even sure what they see when they look in its direction. Is it like it was before the incident? Is it just an empty lot? Whatever the case, it looked like we had a safe place to stay and no rent to pay for it.

About a week after deciding to stay there, we became much more comfortable with knowing we couldn't be discovered. I mean, we had lost everything and had no plans for the future, so at least one thing went our way. Turns out that getting a job is much harder when you don't have a home address. I left the property when those kids showed up again and asked what they saw when they look in its direction. They told me it was empty.

I didn't want to believe it, but at this point, who am I to complain?

Time passed pretty quickly after all that happened. It has now been a year since that day. I want things to get better for us. The others aren't too well. I don't have much more time to spend talking here, so if anyone is reading this, I might not be back after this entry. Many people I knew have died, and I'm scared for our friend's health. He hasn't spoken a full sentence in months. We can't take him to a hospital. We can't risk being found by surviving cultists, if there are any. We're the only three left that I know of, and I would rest easy if only I could know the Lunar Children name has truly died.

All I can do now is hope.

Summary

• Hope reveals that she is a former Lunar Child. She is currently living with one of her friends after surviving the cataclysm that destroyed the Spire. She mentions that another one of her friends is currently in a coma.
• After living in a motel for a brief time, Hope and her friends returned to the Spire. Despite the chaos that ensued, Hope and her friends perceive the Spire as completely normal.
• Upon approaching the Spire a second time, Hope sees it as a pile of ruins. When she gets closer, however, it returns to normal. Outsiders seem to not be able to see the Spire at all.
• The cataclysm that destroyed the Spire on April 23rd, 2016 is described as an explosion of sorts.

April 24th, 2017

• At an unknown time, players discovered that more journal entries from Hope had been posted on the front page of Youshouldnthavedonethat.net:

4/24/17 - Hope's Journals - YSHDT.net

It is 6:16pm. He has stopped responding to us entirely. No matter what, he just doesn't react. We have no choice but to take him to a hospital, and hope for the best. If you're out there, wish us luck.

Well, it's been about six hours since we arrived at the nearest hospital. He's in the care of people we can't trust, but we couldn't even feed him anymore, so what were we supposed to do? We can't spend the night in the open at the hospital, so we came back. I contemplated telling my other friend to stay there, and that she needed to be seen as well. I didn't. She insists that it's just a cold, and it might just be a cold. We just can't afford the luxury of assuming anymore. I'm still updating here, I guess. If anyone's out there, I sincerely hope we're not enemies. The one thing I'm afraid of now is the others being harmed. It might be a while until I say more here, it might not. I don't know anymore. The last six hours have been beyond stressful.

Earlier today, those kids came back. I walked up to them and they ran away. I guess it's for the best since we don't know what's in the rubble that they see. I haven't bothered racking my brain to figure out the deal with that, by the way. After a while you just learn to accept shit no matter how weird it is. And that brings me to this morning.

I woke up really early for some reason, and found that some of our stuff had been moved. Maybe I'm just imagining it because of the stress, but I could have sworn I left my hat next to the pulpit with the rest of my stuff. I found it in the pew next to me.

Anyway, we're going to the hospital to check on our friend. I hope he's okay.

We never made it to the hospital. I am okay, she's okay. We just couldn't get close to the place, I can't explain it. Something was keeping us from it.

I left to go to the hospital by myself after that last entry, and ran the whole way. I know how unlikely it is that I'm being followed after so long, but even so, it's still really hard to feel safe out here in the dark with nobody else. I found that he had been put under for whatever reason, and has yet to wake up. They're not sure what's wrong.

I returned to find the place empty, which isn't very comforting this late at night. Some stray drawings were left lying around on her side of the sanctuary. I liked them a lot. She came back a short while later, turns out she just went out to get food for the night. I'm tired of being so paranoid all the time.

Summary

• Hope dropped her male friend off at the hospital. He has now completely fallen into his coma and is unresponsive.
• Hope and her female friend attempt to visit the hospital the next day, but are unable to approach it for some unknown reason.
• Hope mentions that her female friend has left some drawings around the Spire.

April 25th, 2017

• At an unknown time, players discovered that more journal entries from Hope had been posted on the front page of Youshouldnthavedonethat.net:

4/25/17 - Hope's Journals - YSHDT.net

Nothing much going on right now. Woke up at like 6. Really tired. You know how sometimes you can see something once and then it's everywhere? It's very irritating and I want it to stop. I swear I've seen this weird thing six times since I woke up.

Once, just ONE TIME, I would like to have a day where it feels like things are looking up. ONE DAY.

Okay, so I just woke up to the sound of a loud crash from outside, sounded like thunder but the sky is clear right now. Not amused. I think I'll see if she wants to go to the hospital with me later, kinda hope she does since I'm not a fan of walking there by myself. She's feeling a lot better now, so I guess I was just worried for nothing. Now we just need to know what's wrong with him.

I came back inside after a short walk, and it wasn't a great idea to even go out there in the first place since it's currently like 50 degrees and I didn't have my jacket. Anyway, I came back inside and decided to kill time by wandering around inside. I came around to a closet we haven't been inside of much, since we really have no need to be rifling around in them, but I was curious and it looks like it paid off. I now hold in my hands a small box, maybe the size of a shoebox, but locked. A three-digit combination lock built into it is keeping me out. I've tried several famous three-letter combinations, yet none have worked so far. I don't know anyone who might be good with this sort of thing, and taking this out into the open is an obvious invitation for trouble.

I looked at more of her drawings a few minutes ago. Very relaxing.

Wow, that was an incredibly obvious solution. I dropped the box on its corner and it popped right open! Also, I realize now that I typed "three-letter combination" but wow, I meant number. Never doing this that early again.

After breaking it open, I recorded the contents. Inside were some unopened letters, a Rubik's cube, six one-dollar bills, a newspaper clipping, $600 in twenties, a necklace, and a Bible. Score???

I like this necklace though, kinda like one I used to have. It would make a nice gift.

On the way to the hospital, we talked about what was in the box. I gave her $300 and kept the other half for myself. We arrived and were allowed to see him, and he looked much better than when we brought him in. He must be eating again, which is great. He also spoke clearly to us, something he hasn't done in a long time. He says he doesn't know what's wrong with him and he understands if he's been a burden on us. God, I feel so horrible if that's the impression he got from all this. I just want him to be okay again, like he was before the incident. Maybe a little less serious. She drew a picture of him while we talked and gave it to him. She's so adorable. I'm glad he's speaking again. For the last year, he's just been wandering and talking mostly nonsense. In the last month, he stopped moving and speaking. I don't know what they did to make him better, but I'm glad they did. He hasn't been discharged yet, not sure how long it'll be before we can take him back. Or how long it'll be before he's back to the way he was before we brought him here.

Summary

• Hope explores the Spire and comes across a lockbox that was sealed with a three-digit number. She was able to break the box open and found a necklace, along with some other valuable contents.
• Hope visits her male friend at the hospital. He is now doing better and can speak with them. Hope's female friend draws some pictures for him.
• Hope's male friend is very apologetic. She mentions that she hopes he returns to how he was soon, though maybe "a little less serious".

November 13th, 2017

• At 1:22 AM, players discovered that a new video had been uploaded to the Silentdork YouTube account - "Hello again".

11/13/17 - "Hello again" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with Tyler recording himself in his room at night.

Tyler: "So hey. It's been a while. Probably about a... year? I don't know... Yeah, about a year- a little over a year. Since, uh... I've been involved in any way with this YouTube channel."

Tyler is often seen squinting and rubbing his head as if he is having trouble remembering something.

Tyler: "And... I've just decided to come check it out because if there's still one thing I can remember it's that today's, uh... kind of an impactful day on my life, and... in some ways this YouTube channel is involved... it just crossed my mind to come check it. And... I suddenly see I have like 14,000 subscribers, I was never expecting that, I'm- I'm a little shocked, I'm a little concerned, confused... I don't know why. I... really don't know why I have so many subscribers. I don't- I don't know where this has all come from or why there, I guess, why you're all mostly from South America, I'm not sure why that is, either. But... I guess I should start with introducing myself. Again. Or... maybe for the first time, I don't know. Hello, my name's Tyler. I, uh, started this channel I think... first upload was... two, maybe three years ago. It's really kinda hard to remember. First upload was a video of me and John and, uh... Kevin..."

A very faint image of Regiminis can be seen on the screen. Tyler takes a long time attempting to remember Kevin. His memory seems to be deteriorating.

Tyler: "This YouTube channel's mainly- its main purpose was just I- I... I wanted to archive some old videos of just friends before my life, you know, just started turning into shit. And I don't mean to soapbox, I mean... actually, that's exactly what I mean to do because that's what this channel is for to begin with in a way... Just me bitching about my life, a kind of video diary... Not like very orderly kept or anything, but you know, just uh... Just my thoughts. My thoughts from my- my very... sometimes complicated, sometimes not-so-complicated mind. It wasn't ever really meant to be a show or anything. And... I guess there's been some weird happenings in my life..."

Tyler has a pained look on his face as he appears to be reminiscing.

Tyler: "...And I mean really weird. Really hard to explain."

The video cuts ahead. Tyler is now looking at his monitor.

Tyler: "...But, uh, let me try to organize my thoughts here. Um... last year something happened to me. I'm... pretty sure in the month of June."

The video cuts several times.

Tyler: "I don't know if I got in some kind of accident... I... don't remember if it involved a break in or.. it- a- some person at all. I... don't really remember anything. I don't remember if it had anything to do with the people stalking me. It probably did. Those people, but... I was injured and I was in a coma, and I was in that coma up until a little bit after New Year of this year. I guess I woke up on January 1st. And... I've been having a really hard time remembering my life before that even happened, I mean, it's- it's not like anything crazy, it's not anything really crazy, like I can still remember my name, I like obviously remembered how to get back to my house. I remember, like, key details of my life. I remember John. I remember, uh... I guess I think I had a girlfriend at some point, um... I think... Um..."

Tyler continues rubbing his head.

Tyler: "I remember those people. Who they hell were they... The... something children. I don't know... The, uh, the... Sky? Space? Moon... Lunar? The Lunar Children? And I mean they never formally introduced themselves, they just kinda started invading my life. I'm... to assume it had something to do with, uh, the disappearance of Kevin, and uh... maybe John's death, I don't know. I've just been having a hard time remembering really anything. You know, finer details. I feel like a lot's happened in the last few years, but I- at the same time, I can't be sure, because... I can't remember. Makes me kinda glad that I have these videos, but looking through these videos it just kinda fucks with me more because... there's a lot of weird shit happening in the videos that I really don't remember, and then in some situations I'm... looking desperately for videos that I was sure were there, but they're- they're not."

The video cuts once again.

Tyler: "...Life's been good for me though for the past year. I haven't seen those, uh... those cultish people that literally kidnapped me at a point. I haven't had any run ins with, uh... the police, which is a blessing, because..."

The video cuts several more times.

Tyler: "I mean... I probably look like a sociopath saying this, but I- I know they're working with them... some of them, maybe all of them, I don't know. I'm- I'm blessed that even though I live in this town, I live pretty far off the grid, so I mean I don't have to be right up in their, uh... right up in their domain, I suppose. Probably a bit of a pain in the ass for them to, uh, get involved even if they can or want to anymore, I don't know. I don't know what's happened, it's almost seemed like they've died off..."

Tyler takes a long pause, appearing to be deep in thought.

Tyler: "But... You know... Something just doesn't sit right with me. It's... not like I forgot about this YouTube channel all together just because, you know, I forgot things. I still remembered, in some aspects, this YouTube channel. And, for about a year I'd been avoiding it, and for sensible reasons. A lot of shit's happened in my life. If you've paid attention to anything on the channel I've- I've been stalked, uh... some evil shit has gone down in my life, so you know, I don't really feel comfortable uploading every day, but... It's been rattling around in my brain you know, the uh... the memory of John and the disappearance of Kevin, and... I think about it more and more, and... while I never really got any answers, you know it was a hostage situation, I don't really have a full explanation in my own mind as to how I even got the hell out of that, but uh..."

Tyler takes another long pause.

Tyler: "I can't help but think... maybe this is somehow connected to John and Kevin. You know, against my better judgement I've decided to just get on this YouTube channel, and I guess just bitch about it. Bitch about my life. Bitch about how I miss my friends, I miss having a life. I mean, I shouldn't say I miss having a life, it's not like I don't have a life. Since I woke up I, uh, I've been having the most peace I've probably had in a long time. No, uh, no need to look over my shoulder 24/7, uh, no need to, uh... constantly look out my windows. Yeah, I got tinfoil on my window over there, but I mean it kinda at this point... I know I put it up a long time ago out of, uh... paranoia of being watched, but now it's just, you know... now it's just kind of a comfort thing, you know? Leave it up because, you know, it feels nice. No light coming in and hitting me in the face in the morning when I wake up, you know? But, uh... I don't know. I haven't really wanted to say this to myself... I wouldn't really say I've been an atheist necessarily at any point in my life. Uh, I know- I know John was, but uh... Some magic shit has definitely gone on in my God... God... Some magic shit has definitely gone on in... in my life during all of this shit... and I've seen some things that I frankly just don't know how to put into words for anyone on camera right now, or even to myself... And sometimes I feel like... I don't know. I feel like... Maybe I'm... this is all happening to me because I'm like fucking chosen or some shit, and I mean that sounds, now, that sounds really conceited, I guess. I don't mean chosen like I'm something fucking special, but like I'm chosen by something nasty. Something fucked has business with me. It would explain, you know, why what seems to be a, uh, cult has become very particularly obsessed with my life. I mean, there was a point where I thought you know, maybe you know, just... just cult things, just you know, wanna fucking find somebody and sacrifice them to whatever personal fucked deity that we have, uh, constructed for ourselves. But... I've managed to be lucky enough, you know, I haven't... haven't died, and it seemed like they were going through, you know, a lot of stalking, a lot of bullshit to get me, but... in retrospect, if all they wanted was to just kill someone or fuck with someone or abduct someone, they could have switched to somebody a little more accessible. Somebody who's not all the way out in the middle of bum-fuck nowhere in the woods, away from everything. But they didn't. They... seemed to be obsessed with me for years. And I don't know why. I do know whatever the fuck they're fucking with... it's real. When I was in a coma I had this dream, and... they don't want me to remember... They don't want me to remember anything, uh... Faceless... What am I talking about? I- I, uh... What was I talking about? Um... Fuck. Uh... Uh... when I woke up, I yeah, I just remembered, when I woke up I had this necklace, and I don't remember anything about this, I... it's weird because I remember something about a necklace, but I don't remember this at all."

Tyler pulls a bullet necklace out of his shirt.

Tyler: "This... bullet. I know I used to have a gun at some point, or... maybe I wanted one. I'm- I definitely would have wanted one, but... I don't remember having a gun that would hold bullets like this. But, uh... it's like a bullet keychain, I don't know what it is or where it came from. I don't think it's- it was mine, or maybe it was I guess, because I woke up with it around my neck... And I haven't been, like, wearing this thing forever, since I- since I woke up. I don't know why I felt the need to specify that... Yeah, yeah I've been taking it off and stuff and, uh..."

The video cuts.

Tyler: "But what did I receive in the mail? What? From the postman, uh, what, uh... the suitcase... I had a suitcase, uh... I had a suitcase?"

Awaken.jpg appears on screen as Tyler gets close to the camera. A distorted sound plays.

Tyler: "...Where did that suitcase go?"

Ill be uploading more soon when I can get my thoughts together more clearly to try and sift through all of this shit."

Update
"You may not know me, and that is fine. I am the current owner of this website “Lunar Children”. Some of my friends knew people a part of this cult. I wish to help them out by reconstructing this website. I discovered this server in a fishery that had no power. Hell, the system must of been running on battery power or something. Wires were coming out of the ground connecting to the server room. I must of done something wrong cuz as soon as I got the server home, most of the files were lost or encrypted. I also linked another domain to this one by the name of “johnisdead.com” which also acted strange once I got this server home… It’s been a long day, just finding this thing was a hassle. I will post the encrypted files here for anyone to solve. I see am getting some traffic, so if anyone is able to solve anything, send me an email to “pididoip@johnisdead.com”. I will be uploading some files once I get my Internet working better. fucking 10 MBPs right now…"

• At 6:02 PM, players discovered that Tyler had uploaded a new video to the Silentdork YouTube channel - "The usual".

4/23/18 - "The usual" - YouTube (Silentdork)

The video begins with Tyler looking at his computer screen.

Tyler: "You know... I remember reading that this day is supposed to be important to those fucking people."

He pulls the camera away from the screen. We see that he is viewing the Lunar Children website and Johnisdead.com.

Tyler: "It has something to do with, like... one of their fucking kids dying or some shit. Ben? ...Any information on anything regarding these people is so scattered all over the fucking place. And no matter how hard I try to focus I still feel like I'm under some kind of trance... Like, my mind is just really... hazy. ...Oh, something I just remembered that I should say before it leaves my brain again. You might not believe it because I didn't bring my camera with me because that was before I got my new phone. I have a new phone, by the way. But, I went walking in the woods one more time and I found that fishery again. But... it was empty. The... homeless black guy or whatever wasn't there anymore, and... I remember a while back- before this time there was one other time I went there, I didn't have my camera then, either. But... I went there and there was like this big stack of fucking computers in a room that I couldn't get into before because there was too much shit falling down, but I got in there... and there's just a big stack of like computers... like, machines and shit and... some of them were on... like, on beeping and flashing but not plugged into anything, just the cords were like running into the fucking dirt... I didn't bother digging, obviously, but... There's no cords of really any kind- there is a power line running by the building but it doesn't hook into anything, it's just passing through the woods heading over to like actual civilization. That's just... weird. It's just, fucking... the cords just go into the ground. It's fucking weird... But I went back, though, and those weren't there either. I-I mean, I'm not a fucking computer wizard or anything, but... were those, like, the fucking servers for this shit? Lunarchildren.com? And... My-best-friend-is-dead? Oh, and somebody messaged me this link a while back. Or emailed me or something, I don't fucking know, I can't remember anymore, which is depressing because I think that that was literally just yesterday."

Suddenly a loud bang is heard as if someone threw something at Tyler's house.

Tyler: "God fucking damn it..."

Text briefly appears on the screen:

"key592"

4/23/18 - "Unusual" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with Tyler filming outside.

Tyler: "It's funny because I was just getting ready to record a video, actually. And... I was just going to talk about... try- I was just going to try to clear my thoughts, just try to collect everything together for the first time in my life, everything nice and organized... just... my- my understanding now on... the Lunar Children and everything based on these books I've been going through and public records and shit, and... you know, I feel like this has happened before to me, actually. I'm sitting there minding my own fucking business and... something hits the wall of my house, and I'm... I'm assuming it was this!"

Tyler pans the camera over a bucket lid on the ground.

Tyler: "But you know, it's fine. It's fine. I've had people in my yard before."

Tyler pulls a knife out and begins walking through his yard.

Tyler: "I feel like this exact... this exact thing has happened to me before... in fact I think I might even have it on video, I don't know."

Tyler walks up to an old white truck that's sitting in his yard.

Tyler: "...But nothing on my truck. Or... that guy's truck. ...Wait... what the fuck is that?"

Tyler sees an orange 'Detour' sign sitting in the woods.

Tyler: "What now? And more importantly, who? The Mathew guy? SKM? That, uh... the fucking Patrem guy? John-"

The video stutters and turns green when Tyler says John's name.

Tyler: "Kevin?"

Tyler begins walking up to the sign. As he gets closer a low sound can be heard. He begins walking away from it.

Tyler: "No... I'm- I'm not fucking with it right now."

Tyler walks away from the sign but somehow ends up right in front of it once again.

Tyler: "...I said I'm not fucking with it right now."

He walks away from the sign only to once again appear right in front of it.

Tyler: "Wait... What do you want!? I'm not fucking fucking with it right now, I said."

Tyler again tries walking away only to come upon the sign once more.

Tyler: "...Alright, I've played this game before, fine."

He begins walking backwards while keeping his eyes on the sign.

Tyler: "I've played this exact fucking game before, that is fine. It is fucking fine. You can't move me if I do this because that's not how your little stupid fucking game works. You can't move me if I do this. Oh yeah, that pisses you the fuck off, doesn't it?"

Some strange sounds are heard in the background as Tyler gets further away.

Tyler: "You can't fucking move me if I do this!"

Tyler turns around and begins walking away. The video corrupts and he once again appears in front of the sign.

Tyler: "God fucking damn it! (Laughs) ...What do you fucking want? What, do you want me to walk around it? What stupid fucking thing do you want me to do? What pointless fucking thing do you want me to fucking do? Do you need to fucking... stab it?"

Tyler jabs the knife at the sign.

Tyler: "What do you want? (Sigh) Do I need to fucking touch it?"

As Tyler touches the sign the parallelos symbol appears and a scream is heard. Tyler realizes he is in a new location when he pulls the camera away from the sign. This new place has a lot of strange stuff sitting on the ground.

Tyler: "More of this shit... More of this shit. Thanks. Thanks. (Sigh) Fucking thank you."

He moves past the sign and sits down. He turns the camera around and records himself. Tyler is holding his bullet necklace in his hand.

Tyler: "(Sigh) Thank you. I need a fucking smoke..."

Tyler pulls some cigarettes out of his pocket but can't get a good flame on his lighter.

Tyler: "Fuck this."

A low growing voice similar to Patrem's can be heard as the screen cuts black:

Voice: "Consider yourself fortunate that I have allowed your friend to present this gift to you."

Summary

• Tyler is investigating his yard after hearing something hit the side of his house. The beginning of this video appears to mirror the video "Not safe in my home".
• Tyler finds a random "Detour Sign" sitting in his yard. The sign seems to emit strange noises, and whenever Tyler tries to walk away from it, he ends up teleporting back in-front of it.
• Tyler touches the "Detour Sign". As he does, the parallelos symbol appears and he is teleported to a random location in the woods.
• A voice sounding similar to Patrem's is heard claiming that Tyler's "friend" has given him this "gift".

• At an unknown time the player Greth began uploading videos to a new channel titled "Greth Vlogs". At first, it was not immediately apparent that these videos were canon to Johnisdead. However, over time, it soon became clear that these videos were a pivotal part of the story. The first video uploaded to Greth Vlogs was titled "Greth Vlogs 1".

5/4/18 - "Greth Vlogs 1" - YouTube (Greth Vlogs)

The video begins with Greth sitting in a room recording himself.

Greth: "Oh shit, this has started. What's up everybody. I look- I look like shit. Uh... I'm starting up this new vlog channel as like a sub-channel to my normal one. I don't really know what I'm doing with it yet, um... I just figured it'd be cool to start something new in my life that's creative or at least keeping me entertained because I don't have internet right now except for the mobile data on my phone. I just moved into a new apartment, um... I'm really into it, uh, I got new roommates and all my shit is set up except for the fact that the place looks like garbage and I'll show you that in a second, but that's just because I've been lazy and really haven't put everything together yet. (Coughs) Uh, I guess I'll give you a little sneak peek at the place and uh hopefully from now on I'll be doing, uh... fairly regular uploads about my life and what's going on and keeping in touch and- holy shit I need to trim this beard... Alright."

• At an unknown time, players discovered that Greth had uploaded a new video to Greth Vlogs - "Greth Vlogs 2".

5/4/18 - "Greth Vlogs 2" - YouTube (Greth Vlogs)

This video begins with Greth giving a tour of his room.

Greth: "As, uh... As I mentioned, here's my room. It's a little messy right now because I haven't got a whole lot of shit really put together. There's the girlfriend's Xbox. My poor PS4 is like... in the fucking closet here."

Greth opens the closet door. A PS4 and a white mask can be seen in a box. Greth exits the closet and begins showing the rest of his room.

Greth: "Um, yeah, it's just uh- it's a pretty sick place. Got my pet guinea pig named Hella Jeff hanging down there. Got all my Blu-rays and shit over here. There's probably a lot of fan interference in the audio, that's okay."

Greth walks through the hallway and begins showing some other rooms.

Greth: "Got my bathroom up in here. I like to light incense because my shit smells."

The video cuts ahead a bit.

Greth: "I'm out of my room. Here's, like, the place. Uhh, Matt's in there, leave him alone. Here's the kitchen... You know, I mean... it's cool, I do a lot of shit in here. Um, there's our living room. We haven't really set it up. This is mostly my stuff, I'm a horrible, horrible roommate who hasn't put anything away... uh, with my bookshelf, actually. Up here you can see there's a lot of shit on it already. We got our own patio set up, and here's my favorite part - give me a sec..."

The video cuts, Greth is now standing in front of a door.

Greth: "So, we're back at the front door which is actually by my room. Umm, my room's right... right there. And behind that..."

Greth turns around to reveal a staircase. He begins descending into a dark room.

Greth: "Sorry for the darkness, give me a second..."

He turns on a light and opens a door to another room.

Greth: "Ba-boom. Ba-boom... Ba-boom. We got the garage, and that's my car. What's up. I've never had my own garage before, that's exciting I guess. We got the weird clown table as I call it that we're going to maybe repaint... I don't know. We got this TV stand that we have to take upstairs. I've got a lot of shit on this too because, again, I'm terrible. You got some chairs out here that we're actually probably going to leave here. Washer, dryer- the works."

The video cuts once more.

Greth: "Uhh, we're back in my room now. I have not showered yet today, sorry I look like shit. Uh, just thought I'd give a little intro to what's going on in my life and... I don't know, maybe next time on video I won't look so crappy. I was up till 4am talking to Tyler. Um... Yeah, that's the place... and I'll keep you guys posted about stuff that's going on, and... What I'm gonna be doing and if anything interesting happens, and uh... Hopefully I'll make another one of these soon. Maybe a little more interesting than this one. I look like fuck... Alright, guys. See you around."

The video cuts forward.

Greth: "Hey guys, I uh just took a shower and trimmed my beard. Uh, I guess I just wanted to make a clarification of purpose of this channel here, um... The main reason I'm doing it is not, uh... (Coughs) To expect any sort of, like, long-term viewership, or... anything really worth mentioning. Hold on, I'm get- trying to get this movie started so I can watch it after I finish this video. Uhh... fuck, hold on a second. (Laughs)"

Another video cut forward.

Greth: "Okay. (Laughs) Uh, I think I fixed that. Anyways, um... A major clarification of purpose here is that, uh, I don't except any sort of long-term viewership from these videos. I just wanted to, um... Really give myself and outlet where I could speak my mind and just kind of... not necessarily be creative but just give myself an outlet, because... Um, I'm going through a pretty stressful time with this whole move and like... a lot of big changes in my life, and... most of them have been positive... but it can still really... you know, uh, rack your brain. I don't know how to process new things sometimes and even though I've been living in this apartment now for... about a week, um... I'm not really entirely sure where this, uh... where this adventure is going to take me. God, I'm fucking fat. But I hope that, uh... Sorry, still trying to get my movie set up. I hope that, uh, you know maybe you guys will be interested in what I have to say and kinda showing you what I'm doing on the daily... Not literally everyday, I can't imagine I'll remember to do this everyday. But, um... Maybe I'll be interested enough in what I've got to say and what I'm doing with my life that... maybe I'll have a regular viewership amongst my friends at least. Um... I'll catch you guys on the flipside there. I'm about to watch a movie I like, uh, before work. Umm, what'd I do with the case... Ah, here it is. It's um... The Man Who Fell To Earth with David Bowie... It's, uh... actually a Japanese print because, uh... this movie was very expensive to get in English at one point and it has English audio, so there's no reason not to just get a Japanese copy. I'm getting off-topic... See you all later. Peace."

• At an unknown time, players discovered that Greth had uploaded a new video to Greth Vlogs - "Greth Vlogs 3".

5/4/18 - "Greth Vlogs 3" - YouTube (Greth Vlogs)

This video begins with Greth recording himself while driving in his car.

Greth: "Hey guys. I, uh, decided to make one last part to this introductory video. I know, I keep saying goodbye and then not fucking doing it... But, uh... Decided that it'd be interesting, maybe, if since you kinda saw my new place for the first time... I go check out my old room at my parent's house where I was for quite a while. It's not the only place I've lived in my life, in fact it's... I didn't even live there too long in retrospect, but... A lot of you kinda know that room. Especially if you talked to me on Skype and Discord back in the day, uh, during the uh... major stuff that was happening with... the website and stuff. You probably remember I had a clicky-ass fan. Whenever I would talk on Skype it would be like:"

Greth makes several clicking sounds with his mouth.

Greth: "And everyone would get fucking annoyed at me. That's not going to be a problem anymore, obviously. Uh, but the other place, or the new place rather doesn't- doesn't have internet yet... and that means I would have to upload this video on mobile data and I don't really want to do that yet... and my parent's house isn't very far away so we're just gonna kinda take a little trip there to check out the old place. I wanna grab a few things that I needed that I still haven't grabbed from that house, and we're gonna... look at the old room. It's, uh, pretty much fucking empty now except for like a desk, but maybe it will be interesting to see that, I don't know."

The video cuts ahead. We see a FedEx parked in front of Greth.

Greth: "Fuck, this asshole won't move... We're good! Yay."

The video cuts ahead once more.

Greth: "Someone is listening to fucking Apple Bottom Jeans. In 2018. I think it's that guy."

The video cuts, showing Greth driving down a highway. It then cuts once more to Greth pulling up to where his parents live. He drives up to an automated gate that is slowly closing.

Greth: "Auuuugh, did I make it? Did I make it? Yeah, fuck you."

The video cuts to Greth pulling into a driveway.

Greth: "And here we is. The old place where the parents live. Yeah."

The video cuts to Greth's empty room.

Greth: "And here it is. It's all empty now... In case you've been a friend of mine for a long time on the internet you probably know I made a series called 979. A lot of that shit was shot right out back here... Um... There's my desk I still gotta move back. I'm not- I'm not doing that now. Here's the old bathroom... One fucking working light, of course. Uh... gross-ass shower. Fun fact, this might look a little familiar. This shower was also used in that series as like... a fucking replacement for a lab or something, I don't know. It was supposed to be a spooky video, so you couldn't really see much anyways. And you, uh, can see Link is still up there. I gotta take that bad boy down and take him with me. But that will happen soon enough. Umm, yeah. Uh, I guess I can open closets, but... Ugh, there's nothing in here I'm expecting. ...Yep. Okay, that is it."

The video cuts forward.

Greth: "I, uh, got what I came for. Uh, primarily tea from a company that no longer exists. Uh, so... those are going to be hard to replace but I figured I might as well use what I got left while I still got it. Goddamn, these camera angles are crazy, I'm sorry I'm just kinda moving while holding the phone. Um... For real now. I'm gone. See ya."

The video cuts back to Greth's room as he films his ceiling fan.

Greth: "...Of course it doesn't fucking click anymore. God. Damn it."

Greth: "So this is just a quick update. Um... I'm getting ready for work... Or actually I'm driving to work. Uh, you can see I've got my sweet Secret of Mana sweater on. (Laughs) Um... I guess, as I had to explain in the actual ID, um... Part of the reason I'm doing this is because it helps me feel closer to you guys regardless- regardless of whether you actually watch them or not, I feel like... I'm kinda reminding myself that I need to... interact with ID more. (Coughs) The Internet Detectives more because it's a community that kinda adopted me post-Within Hubris and it's a community I like a lot, and uh... I've been put in a position recently where, uh... I should not take said community for granted and I should really just be around... And I know this really has nothing to do with Discord or, like, moderating or whatever- any of that. But it just kind of helps me stay focused and, you know, have an outlet and let you guys know I'm here, I guess. Um, this is the quickest of updates... Not the hardest button to button, kinda the easiest one... but it was worth saying... and I love you guys, and I appreciate you guys... and I think that despite some vitriol that the group can kinda have towards itself sometimes that we have a long time together still of good times ahead. And... my hair is very long so I'm sorry if it's in my eyes. That's it. Bye."

I don't know what to say. I think it was probably just some kind of error. Um, I've been using my mobile phone right now exclusively. It's not even a great one, it's a Samsung, uh... Galaxy J7, not even an S7, so it's like not top of the line shit. Um, but... I'm on my break from work right now, just kinda taking a quick video to say that I wouldn't worry about whatever was going on last night. Um... I was having some pretty heavy conversation with Tyler the night before... Maybe I just don't remember making those- that video- it could be anything, honestly. Uh, that, uh... that whatever happened at the end of that video, I'm not too worried about it. Probably no big deal. Um, but I'm gonna keep up the v-logs, or vlogs- whatever you wanna call them. Uh, this is just a quickie to say that yes, I'm alive. Everything is fine, uh, I've been at work today so far. Uh, I will be here until tonight... even though I'm on break right now I'm going to fucking McDonalds like the horrible human being I am. And then, uh... hopefully I'll make another vlog or two by the end of the day. Probably just the one... other one for tonight. Um... but yeah, I'll keep in touch and everything's fine."

I don't really know... I don't know what to say at this point, um... because I just feel like... something weird is going on... I- it could just be me. I think maybe it is just me. Um, I'm very nervous, I guess, about this new place. I've only been there for... uh, like two weeks or something, I guess, or a week and a half. So... I think maybe my, uh... jitters are just get- getting the better of me. Sorry about the fucking- blocking the camera, I'm just... Sometimes driving is like the easiest way to get this out because I don't have to focus on what I'm saying as much, I can just drive and go with it. But I feel like something weird is happening... but it's probably just me and it only seems to happen when I'm alone at night and not really... focusing on my surroundings, or... Ah, listen to me, I-I sound fucking crazy. Uhh, I don't know, there's nothing wrong with the apartment I'm just paranoid probably because of nerves, and I think... I'm playing into it, um... There's going to be a bunch of people over tonight both as kind of a housewarming and goodbye party for my... my buddy Ben is leaving for Orlando to go back to college, uh he's uh... gonna try to get into computer sciences and try to be a programmer. Ironically I'm thinking about getting certifications and getting into security, um... computer security, not... (Laughs) not a security guard. Because I can't do GameStop forever. Uh... (Sigh) I... there's just a lot of emotions right now... and, uh... especially without my uh partner, my girlfriend, with me... Uh, I'll be seeing her soon, but just going to that room every night alone is starting to become less enjoyable and more stressful and... (Sigh) I'm starting to wonder if there's just something wrong with me, honestly.... Uh... Yeah..."

The video cuts as the footage glitches out.

Greth: "...We're here. Almost. It's getting dark out. Already. (Sigh)"

The video cuts forward.

Greth: "I, uh... don't really know."

The video begins corrupting. Whenever the person walking behind Greth comes into view the camera zooms in onto them, sometimes turning green.

Greth: "I mean that's what the, uh... weed is for. Puts me to sleep, but I'm out. And, uh... things have been getting kind of weird around (Indecipherable)"

The last word Greth says is very corrupted and loud. Whenever he says it the camera zooms in on the person who was walking behind him. Greth slows down and turns around towards the direction the person was. He looks back at the camera looking confused.

Greth: "...Was somebody back there? (Laughs)"

Greth: "Hey, everybody. Um... making a video just to keep in touch, it's been a while. A whole lot has happened, uh... I've just been travelling around, hiking."

The video is already glitching a bit, cutting to black a few times. We are shown some brief footage of the woods. The audio seems to have some slight distortion. We cut back to Greth.

Greth: "Trying to figure myself out... keep away from that apartment."

We are shown more brief footage of the woods.

Greth: "Uh, that's what I'm doing right now, I'm in the middle of a hike right now. As you can see it's very beautiful around here."

The video cuts to a corrupted shot of an old boat on the back of a truck.

8/28/18 - "A guest" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with Tyler sitting in his room. He is speaking to Greth as vaporwave plays in the background.

Tyler: "You know what I don't think that, uh... the people following my Youtube channel actually know about?"

Greth: "What's that?"

Tyler: "My personal religion."

Tyler holds up a book and shows the camera. It's a bit difficult to read, however.

Tyler: "Odin. ...Man. Have I told you about the runes that I'm studying? The Armanen Futharkh?"

Greth: "No..."

Tyler: "It's 18 runes that correspond to, uh... Man, this music is like really religious for what I'm talking about. (Laughs) It's 18 runes that correspond to the 18 runes that Odin talks about in the Rúnatal."

The vaporwave ends.

Tyler: "Oh, well just cut off on me why don't you. (Laughs) But, uh..."

The vaporwave begins playing once again.

Tyler: "Okay..."

The video cuts Tyler leaning back in a chair.

Tyler: "Who cares."

Greth: "Okay (Laughs)"

The video cuts once again. Tyler holds his bullet necklace in his hand.

Tyler: "Man... So... Do you know anything about the Lunar Children?"

Greth: "Uh... I mean, I was reading about them on the website... And watching the videos."

Tyler: "Do you know about what happened on their uh, big 4/23 incident of like two years ago?"

Greth: "Is that where they drowned the kid? Or..."

Tyler: "Oh no, that was like... almost two decades ago."

Greth: "Oh..."

Tyler: "...In like I think 2002? Or..."

Greth: "Oh was this- Oh was this... the house fire?"

Tyler: "Uh, no that was my uh, that was- that was my friend, John..."

Greth: "Oh..."

Tyler: "Uh..."

Greth: "No, tell me more about it."

Tyler: "I'm asking about it cause all I know is that, uh... For some reason they have this like fucking fetish for me, like I don't understand in the grand scheme why specifically they require me for something that they're trying to do, but I guess they like failed too many times in a row? Due to I guess as far as I'm concerned, going off what information I can find, some like unseen forces keep preventing them from, uh, getting their job done. And I guess their, uh, big fucking deity decided to fucking eat them or something? I don't fucking know because, like... There was like this 'oh shit' meltdown post and, uh, apparently after that everybody at that building that they had in Ohio just vanished. Everybody that like regularly attended suddenly was all on like a missing persons list..."

Greth: "...Well, I mean... I know there's like, uh... There are people on the internet that I can, uh... introduce you to who know a lot more about this than I do... And I think they, uh... have been trying to contact you for some time."

Tyler: "Well, I mean, I got like a lot of people trying to contact me all the time. A lot of the time in Spanish. But, uh..."

Greth: "No this is different. I mean it's not just the random YouTube comments sections, it's uh... There's a, uh, Discord. Do you know what that is?"

Tyler: "Uh, I..."

Greth: "It's like a... It's kinda like a gamer Skype thing?"

Tyler: "That sounds... pretty gay. But, uh... (Laughs) But yeah I do have a Discord account."

Greth: "Okay..."

Tyler: "But, uh... Yes."

Greth: "Okay. Because they, uh... They first contacted me because I was involved in something a number of years ago relating to a kid. Uh... There was like this website and I made some videos that helped some people, um... It might have something to do with what's going on."

Tyler: "...What was the website?"

Greth: "Uhm... Youshouldnthavedonethat.net."

The video and audio stutter as Tyler makes a strange noise. During the stuttering an image of BEN and an image of Regiminis can be seen. The video cuts back in with Tyler looking through a box of vaporwave cassettes, presumably back right after Tyler talked about Odin, considering the book is seen nearby.

Tyler: "What should I put on...? Pick one. Should I put on, uh... 'Eternal Desolation', 'Equip', or uh... I forget what this is actually called but it's by R23X."

Greth: "I dunno."

Tyler: "Uhh, just pick one at random."

Greth picks 'Eternal Desolation'

Tyler: "Okay."

Tyler puts the cassette into the player. He leans back and nearly drops some cassettes.

Tyler: "Oh shit."

The video cuts back to the previous scene after Greth mentions YSHDT.net.

Greth: "(Ok)ay."

Tyler: "Uh, yeah... I've never heard of that website."

Greth: "Alright, well, uh..."

Tyler: "Well, actually... Uh, the- That phrase sounds a little familiar. But, uh... Actually, I don't- I don't think I've ever, uh... I don't think I've ever been to that website, no."

Greth: "Okay... Well it's, uh... It's a little... (Sigh) Actually it's- I'm having trouble remembering if it's new or old..."

Tyler: "...Oh, now I remember where- where I heard the phrase, because actually, uh... That guy, José, um... Or the 'archive guy' that's apparently on the same server that he salvaged out of that, uh... fishery building."

Greth: "Okay... Is that server somewhere nearby? Or..."

Tyler: "It's actually at his house. Well I mean I'm assuming it's at his house. I've never been to his house, I don't actually know where he lives. I know he must live close or else he couldn't have gone to physically go get it like he said he did."

Greth: "So... Who's the original server owner?"

Tyler: "I guess the Lunar Children collectively. I don't know specifically... Like, okay-"

Greth: "Wait, so... Wait who's- Who's Patrem then?"

Tyler: "I've worked out that Patrem was a guy named Hank, actually... Who I guess was involved in a lot of occult stuff and for whatever reason started doing it, like, out of his own building... Like, I guess like he used to own that fishery? And I guess back in like the late, late, late 90's to early 2000's he started running his scheme out of there? Like, I guess what went on to become the Lunar Children. Whatever he was doing was like a precursor to it, maybe? I don't know, or maybe it was? I don't know, this is just like collective word around town I can get, and like... bits of like public record information. But, uh... Basically, um... Yeah, the guy owned that fishery- I don't know what the, like, legality deal on the property is right now. I kinda- and this is like bordering on conspiracy theory tier thought, but like I have for years now kinda assumed there was something fucked about the local police force. Um... And now I have reason honestly to believe that they... A lot of the police force is probably like directly involved with this cult... Because I guess at a time they were actually a pretty big pervasive local thing until a lot of, like, the big players moved north over to Ohio... But that's like the most of what I've managed to establish just doing the reading up and talking to people local that want to talk"

• At 7:30 PM, players discovered that a new video had been uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "never sleeping".

10/11/18 - "never sleeping" - YouTube (Greth Vlogs)

This video begins with Greth sitting in his house reading a book titled 'Moon Magic'. A trippy song with vocals is playing in the background. The video briefly fades into a clip of him lying on his bed. The video then quickly flickers between an image of "The Watcher" seen in earlier Greth Vlogs and a shot of Greth looking at the camera menacingly.

We are shown another shot of Greth lying on his bed while struggling to sleep. The video cuts out before showing a hand slowly grabbing Greth's face as the music stutters. We are once again shown a shot of the menacing looking Greth accompanied by ominous music before the video ends.

Summary

• Greth is looking extremely tired. He is reading a book titled "Moon Magic".
• "The Watcher" is shown briefly along with a menacing-looking Greth.

• A menacing-looking Greth:

• At 9:00 PM, the player Dense submitted the video "GORONLULLABY - a video featuring Goron Link playing the "Goron's Lullaby" in an attempt to put Greth to sleep out of fear for his deteriorating mental health.
• At 11:46 PM, players discovered that a new video had been uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "J J S K K N V G H".

10/11/18 - "J J S K K N V G H" - YouTube (Greth Vlogs)

This video begins with Greth lying in bed, yawning. The video slowly corrupts, making his face look like its frowning. The video cuts to black before showing footage of a purple moon. Images of a maniacally smiling Greth occasionally cut in along with shots of him wearing the white mask from before.

Summary

• The "Goron's Lullaby" successfully places Greth to sleep. Unfortunately, it is revealed that Patrem was housed within his body all along. Just like with Vincent Adams, now that Greth has fallen asleep, Patrem has taken over his body.
• Greth can be seen wearing the white fish-like mask from before.

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

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:

• 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

• 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!"

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."

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."

The video cuts once again.

Tyler: "Jesus Christ, my phone. Okay, lemme just like, uh, get away from that thing. Uh... What was I saying, oh yeah. Um... this guy I've been in contact with- a couple of guys, actually. There's a guy named, uh, Jose... or, as he's called on the blog that's now down, uh, the "Archive Guy". Uh, I got in contact with him whenever I noticed that there were changes happening on the Lunar Children website that didn't seem culty. Um... all I really know about him is, uh, basically shit that he already said in his one blog post which is, uh, he's just got some friends who were friends of friends who had relatives, I guess, in the Lunar Children, and I guess there was like a big sorta cataclysmic event for them that occurred and they all disappeared, so these, like, people of distant relation are just trying to figure out what the fuck happened there and he's just their friend, and they don't know how to do fucking anything with computers so he's just kinda managing the salvaged network content off of the, uh... I guess, oddly enough, this, uh, server that was actually inside of that, uh... that old, rundown fishery. I don't know, anybody that pays attention I guess might remember I mentioned some computers that were there that seemed like they were actually working and turns out, hey they were actually working, and they were apparently actually hosting these websites. I don't know, maybe... maybe that's just news to me, and uh... some of you people out there somehow already knew that. But, uh, that's news to me and that's kinda fucking weird. Um... But yeah, right now they're offline because, uh, he's just having some financial issues - Jose. Um, I don't know if I'm supposed to be saying his real name, but, uh... He's just having some financial issues, so he can't manually host himself. Um... A little too much on his electric bill, I guess. But, uh... Yeah - that's basically what's going on with that. Um, he's just trying to, like, prune the content and, nice guy that he is, he said of course he'll be- I'll be first to be informed if he finds, like, anything new. Seeing as this- seeing the tie-in pretty close to me for a lot of weird reasons. Um... other guy I'm in contact with, uh..."

The video cuts once again as we can hear the "Detour Sign" moaning.

Tyler: "Damn, my fucking camera right now. But, anyways, um... Oh yeah, the guy - the other guy. Uh, Tony. Who... I met through the YouTube comment section, actually. I've - I've been making a handful of friends there, actually. A lot of them, uh, not like the most clear English speakers, but that's actually okay. But, uh... Yeah, uh, Tony... I guess wants to come hang out. I guess, uh... he said that he, like, has experience with the kinds of issues I'm dealing with here, whatever the fuck that means. But... You know, I've - I've been basically a hermit for about seven or so years, save for like associates with employees at jobs, so fuck it. I haven't, like, had any serious serious reason in the last year or so to believe I'm still actively being stalked by a cult, so why do I need to act like one of those like "targeted individuals" bastards. I wanna have friends, so you know, I'm just gonna let this Tony guy come on over. Maybe he wants to kill me, I don't know. I know nothing about this guy. He mentioned some shit about, like, some fucking Discord internet group he wants me to get involved in. I don't remember what he said it was called, uh... Really this is completely irrelevant and I'm kinda like rambling at this point because this whole video was actually just supposed to be me talking about this magical fucking construction sign that has just materialized in from Johnisdead.com world, and, uh... yeah. Let's, like, get back to what this was supposed to be about - this construction sign. Detour sign.

Tyler approaches the "Detour Sign". Strange moaning can be heard again. The video cuts ahead a bit.

Tyler: "It seems to make you teleport..."

Tyler begins carrying the sign.

Tyler: "Carrying it over here... One thing I've worked out is I guess, um... I don't know if it's limited to short distances, because last time I fucked with it, the damn thing - well, the last time I recorded myself fucking with it..."

The video distorts further and it is difficult to hear Tyler.

Tyler: "-here to, uh... over there, like... in front of my house. But, uh... I don't know if it's limited to short distances, I don't know if there's a way to, uh, control it. I - I kinda feel half fucking retarded because I mean it's - it's just a fucking construction sign. I'm talking about it like it's some kinda machine, but, uh... "Detour". I don't understand what this really means, like does it mean detour from where I'm currently at? ((Laughs)) Like... You wanna walk off somewhere else, you run into this - oh, detour to other area. That's basically what happened, but last time - the non-recorded time I touched it, uh... I basically set it up right where it's at right now, and... I went instantly from here to right around where that sunshine is at over there."

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."

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"

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..."

11/1/18 - "What are your thoughts about visitors?" - Jos

October 31st, 2018

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."

• At 7:42 PM, the player Wolfcat discovered that Tyler was hosting another livestream on the Silentdork YouTube channel titled "First live stream: general talk".

11/2/18 - "First live stream: general talk" - YouTube (Silentdork)

The video begins with Tyler sitting down at his computer. He begins speaking.

Tyler: "Alright, uhhh… Am I live? I was testing a few minutes ago and I wasn't sure if things were messing up. I've never, uh… I've never livestreamed before. Okay, cool. Hello, hello, hey. Hi, woah, hell yeah. Okay, alright I'm live. Also, sorry if I look like shit, I just got out of the shower. And had a long day at work. And, uhh… I'm feeling a little, uh, frankly nervous because… well, we'll get to that."

Tyler: "Um… I was getting some PM's actually from various Spanish friends- 'What am I doing?', Uhh, I just got back from work, actually. 'How are ya men?' Uh… 'Spik Spanish', says Valentin2232, Uhh… I wanna apologize, I don't actually know Spanish and I don't know where all the Spanish people have come from. I get a lot of people mentioning something about a guy called Jordi? Uhh… I have noticed I think my channel actually subscribed me to him at a point? Uh, I don't know anything about the guy frankly and I'm sorry about that. I don't wanna seem like I'm being rude or anything, uhh…"

Tyler briefly looks behind himself as if he heard something.

Tyler: "Uh, but I… I don't really- I don't really know Spanish, uh… Not tryin' to be racist or anything, but no habla. My apologies. But, uhh… What was I going to talk about… Oh yeah, I was gettin' a lot of PM's."

The player Camilo Canio says "You like a rockstar, hell ya!!" in the livechat.

Tyler: "Uh, thank you, I don't feel like a rockstar, but thank you, uh, Camilo Canio. Uhh… I got a bunch of PM's about something about a livestream - a lot of it in Spanish, and again I don't speak Spanish so I'm really really sorry. I apologize. But, uhh… And I just wanna make that clear so if anybody thinks I'm ignoring them, I'm not trying to ignore them, I just don't know like- I literally just can't understand what's being said, so apologies, I'm sorry."

The player Diana Madina says "I love you😮❤🙌" in the livechat.

Tyler: "Uh- I, uh… I love you too Diana Madina. Um, so… Anyways, I had some stuff I was gonna talk about that I've been meaning to go over for a while and I've just been busy with work and life and just various weird things that happen to me. For example, I get a lot of weird phone calls, a lot of weird shit in the mail, uhh… which is something I'm about to get to, actually. Umm… I, uh… hold on…"

Tyler clicks something on his computer.

Tyler: "Okay, there we go. I get a lot of weird shit in the mail - that's something I was about to get to, actually."

Tyler once again looks behind him as if hears something.

Tyler: "Is my microphone picking that up? Or am I just fucking hearing shit?"

Tyler scoots his chair back and looks out his bedroom door.

Tyler: "Whatever, let me not lack- bluh, let me not act like a psychopath in front of everybody, but-"

Players ask "what's behind you?" in the livechat.

Tyler: "What's behind me? Uhh… My, uh… covered windows so that I can feel like people can't watch me while I'm sleeping, you know, because I'm basically - I'm more or less one of those crazy targeted individuals bastards at this phase of my life. But, uhh… anyways, I'm gettin' sidetracked here."

Tyler: "I got PM's about a livestream and it got me thinkin' hey, I could livestream and talk about the various bullshit that I guess I probably need to mention to the people that care now that I've got a giant following out of nowhere for my shitty private vlog about my cult stalker life. But, uhh… I guess, what to go over first?"

Tyler: "This was, uh… a while back before I hung out with that Tony guy, which by the way, uh… Tony, if you're out there - hey, please come back and hang out again, that was a really fun time and it was really nice to run into somebody who I can see seemingly has, uh… somewhat of a similar experience to me. I hope you're doin' okay out there, man. Uh… things have been lookin' kinda weird on your YouTube channel, so uhh… I hope you're doin' okay, man. Anyways, uh… Before I hung out with that Tony guy, I got a couple of things that I never made videos about it- talking about it."

The player Juan Manuel CH asks "are you a ghost?" in the livechat.

Tyler: "Uhh… Am I a ghost? No, Juan Manuel, I'm… not a ghost. I think that was Juan Manuel… Yeah, Juan Manuel, I'm not a ghost… I-I don't think, I think I'm alive. I think I go to work every day. I think, uh, support my lonely swamp trailer life. But, uh… a couple of things I guess I should have talked about before, uh…"

Tyler: "The sign- the sign experiment video and Tony coming over - which, by the way, before - I'm the king of gettin' sidetracked here - before I get on to what I was gonna say, uhh… That sign video, which technically I recorded before the Tony guy came over, and we were just so caught up with everything we were doing that, like, we never even went outside to mess with the sign. It was… frankly the first time in about, well… god, like a decade that I- that I had like a nice time in which I didn't feel like I need to worry about just weird shit in my life. So… just didn't really think, oddly enough, to mention the sign at all to him, but… hopefully, Tony, if you're out there, you can come back again. I'll show you the sign. Uhh… I really should have done that in the beginning, I don't know why. I should have done that, I didn't. Um… In fact, I think a couple of these things might have even shown up in the video because I just had them sitting around."

Tyler picks up a photo sitting on his desk.

Tyler: "First off, I got this in the mail. Um…"

Tyler once again looks behind himself, supposedly hearing something.

Tyler: "I-I got this in the mail. Kind of a… cute picture of a couple and it's nice, I guess, because most of the shit I get in the mail is either really threatening or, uh, just in Spanish. I'm- I'm startin' to think that there's like a… I dunno if I mentioned this before, I'm startin' to think maybe there's a Spanish branch of these Lunar Children people or something because I get a lot of really threatening stuff in Spanish a lot of the time and frankly if it stopped that'd be really- that'd be really sweet of you all."

Tyler: "But anyways, um… Nice portrait of a couple of people. This is really an uncharacteristic thing I received in the mail. I remember when I first got it, just for the shit of it, I like… cleaned it up and I put it in a frame. But… I just today - because I decided I wanted to get it out and talk about it and accidentally broke the frame I remember when I went to pick it up. There's something on the back of it that says, uh… '1990 - Diana'. I dunno if, uh, this has something to do with, uh… well, anything. I think, uh… I think that Hank Hubbard guy had a wife or something. I dunno."

Tyler: "I've been asking - I've still been asking a lot around town with, uh, with the people that are kinda in the know and wanna actually talk about the local cult. Uh, which, by the way, I got recommended a book - hold on. Let me… Where did I put that book? Oh, my stupid ass."

Tyler picks up a rather large book titled "Drawing Down the Moon".

Tyler: "'Drawing Down the Moon', apparently is something that used to be on their reading list, but I've read this front to back and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with anything. It really just seems like a lot of stupid hippy garbage. But, uhh… you know. Crazy cults and what I'd like to know about them."

Tyler picks the photo back up.

Tyler: "But, uhh… I got no idea who these people are. Maybe… maybe this is Hank? Which, I don't really know a lot about the guy other than he led the Lunar Children at a point."

Tyler picks up a red mask with horns on it.

Tyler: "Another thing. I found this whenever I was walking around in the woods lately kinda close to…"

Tyler once again looks behind himself as if he hears something.

Tyler: "...The fishery, and, uh… it kinda seems familiar to me, but I dunno where I've seen this before, uhh… I didn't actually go to that fishery, really I don't- I don't wanna go back to it. I don't really… I don't really know… why… Uhh, any- anyways, uh, I dunno what this brittle piece of fucking garbage is, but maybe it's one of the cult masks. There's like a thing on the inside of it that looks like an 'R', but it's a really pointy 'R'."

Tyler shows the inside of the mask. The letter "R" can be seen written inside.

Tyler: "And this has all been in like the last, uhh, few months. I actually can't remember exactly what day I found this and what day I got mailed this, but, uhh… I know it was before… before I hung out with Tony. Umm…"

Tyler once again hears something and looks over at the corner of his room.

Tyler: "Uhh… Sorry, my- my head's a little cloudy right now, uhh… and there's probably, uh… I don't- I don't know. Uh…"

Tyler looks back into the hallway again.

Tyler: "You can't hear it? Can anyone hear anything? Like, is my room just silent for the rest of you? A-anyways, um… A couple of days ago- and, I forgot to mention, actually, about a week ago I wanna say, I misplaced I guess somehow that necklace I found. I dunno if anyone remembers me mentioning - whenever I woke up in the hospital a while back there was this necklace, and they told me that I just had it whenever I woke up in the parking lot - or not woke up, but whenever I turned up in the parking lot. But… the necklace, I… don't know where it's at. But, uhh… yeah, I-I don't know what that came to mind suddenly, but… yeah. Necklace. Don't know what the fuck happened to it."

Tyler holds up three pieces of a gas mask.

Tyler: "But, very recently I found, uhh… this. And… this. And… this. Right at the edge of my yard. Not, uh… sure what the deal is, but that's… that's two now. Two masks. Two weird masks turning up in a very close proximity to my yard, and I'm… you know, the paranoia's been heightening for me again, you know? But hey, life's got its ups and downs. Meet a new friend, regain some old issues or something, I dunno. But, uhh… I don't really understand any… anything, really. And I'd really like that noise to stop. But, uhh…"

Tyler begins looking over the gas mask.

Tyler: "This isn't familiar, though. But, it kinda is. Was I wearing this…? I don't… I don't know. I gotta… man, this chat's goin' crazy. I dunno how I got so famous just being a crazy asshole in a swamp, but, uhh…"

The player Noaimi say "Tyler check the noise" in the livechat.

Tyler: "You know what, Noaimi, yeah, actually - I'll, uh… I'll check the noise, and I kinda gotta go to the bathroom anyways. I'll, uh… I'll be right back."

Tyler stands up and leaves the room. While he's gone, the lights in his room begin to flicker. SKM enters the room and picks up the pieces of the gas mask from Tyler's desk.

SKM: "Thank you… And just one more… Thank you. Alright. Thank you for finding that for me. Here... I grabbed this. Felt to add something to it…"

SKM tosses the Bullet Necklace into Tyler's chair.

SKM: "Watch over my brother for me. I'll see you soon."

The lights flicker once again as SKM leaves the room. After a while, Tyler returns with some alcohol and a glass.

Tyler: "I had to grab myself a little drink too because I'm really-"

As Tyler's about to sit down, he sees the Bullet Necklace. He begins laughing as he picks it up before sitting down.

Tyler: "I-I couldn't have been sitting on this the whole time. I couldn't have been sitting on this the whole time, could I? Wait… where's the, uhh… where did that mask go?"

Tyler begins shakily pouring himself a drink while he reads the livechat. The player Wolfcat says "he took the mask" in the livechat.

Tyler: "No no no, wait… Who took the mask? Someone's in my fuckin' house? Someone's in my fuckin' house. Someone's in my house?"

Tyler stands up and picks up a knife.

Tyler: "Okay, so someone's in my fuckin' house, alright. Cool. Someone's in my house, is that what you're saying? Someone's in my fuckin' house. Cool. Fuckin' awesome. Great."

Tyler walks out of his room.

Tyler: "Hello…? Hello? Hello? Hello?"

Tyler returns to the computer and sits down.

Tyler: "Someone's in my fuckin' house aren't they?"

Tyler puts the Bullet Necklace back around his neck.

Tyler: "No. No no no, I'm not- I'm not… not too happy right now, but hey, at least I got my fuckin' necklace back!"

Tyler seemingly hears or sees someone out of the corner of his eye. He grabs his knife before slowly standing up.

Tyler: "There you are you motherfucker. Hey… Hey. Hey!"

Tyler runs out of his room in pursuit of the man inside his house.

Tyler: "Hey! Get the fuck back here- hey! Motherfucker!"

Tyler returns to his computer to end the stream.

Tyler: "Hold on, I'm gonna get my fuckin' guns."

October 31st, 2018

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."

Wolfcat 11:31 PM: "Wait, what happened? If you don't mind me asking."

11/5/18 - "Moon Children" - Deadhead

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."
Wolfcat 2:49 PM: ((The image "Truth.png" is sent - the newspaper article covering Hank's death at the fishery.))
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. There's a note from the old cult mentioning some place in Ohio called "The Spire" at the end of the video, along with what looks like an FBI document at 4:50?? I don't know what that's about, honestly."

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"

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."

His avatar appears to be his own original character from the "Kingdom Hearts" series - an anime-esque character wearing a black cloak. Kaiden_Zoromichi appears to be a returning user to the forums, and he has already been added to the "Believers" group.

11/12/18 - "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"

Dense 8:45 PM: How long have you been in the forums
moonman31 8:45 PM: since the beginning
Wolfcat 8:46 PM: How long would that be? It sounded like the Astral Observatory has been around for a little while since before the “hacker attack” from JiD
moonman31 8:50 PM: yeah
moonman31 8:50 PM: depends on who you ask tbh although for me i would say since july
Dense 8:51 PM: oh july

Dense 8:56 PM: Wait
Dense 8:56 PM: what if the “A guest” was recorded on jjuly
Wolfcat 8:56 PM: probably was
Wolfcat 8:56 PM: Do you know anything about the guy who wears that silver alien mask? He cropped up in Nocta’s vid, along with a few of Greth’s

Dense 9:16 PM: sorry man
Wolfcat 9:16 PM: We got a lot of questions and we aren’t sure what you can and can’t answer, so please bear with us too
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?
moonman31 9:26 PM: brb
moonman31 9:26 PM: and no not in a spooky way

CircleHunter 9:50 PM: lmao
Wolfcat 9:50 PM: you are free to pee whenever you like
moonman31 9:50 PM: I dont think thats necessarily true
moonman31 9:50 PM: but I appreciate the sentiment
CircleHunter 9:50 PM: give the original scream a watch at some point since that was the movie i was referencing
Wolfcat 9:53 PM: I am going to ask the forbidden question
Wolfcat 9:53 PM: get ready
Wolfcat 9:53 PM: What is in the truth?
moonman31 10:05 PM: ha

Wolfcat 10:24 PM: If you can’t say anything about Kevin, then do you know anything about a Kayd Hendricks you can tell us about?
moonman31 10:24 PM: let me put it this way
moonman31 10:24 PM: I know plenty about ben drowned

moonman31 10:42 PM: I dont know
moonman31 10:42 PM: but let me also say the rest of the forum does not know about the history of all this

moonman31 10:45 PM: sort of
Wolfcat 10:46 PM: I’m assuming that’s related to Nocta
moonman31 10:46 PM: no

nocta 6:12 PM: "Welcome back Kaiden"
moonman31 6:13 PM: "Fuck"

NotAHoax_M12 8:39 AM: "Welcome back!"

Summary

• NotAHoax welcomes Kaiden back to the forums.

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
Jos 5:28 PM: hey mane, how are you doing
moonman31 5:30 PM: pretty stoned
Jos 5:30 PM: Thats good

Summary

• Moonman informs the players that he is currently stoned.

November 16th, 2018

• At 7:54 PM, Nocta replied to the player ARGdov's message with a PM on the Astral Observatory forums that read "How far does your curiosity go?".

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."

November 19th, 2018

• At 9:18 PM, Moonman became active in the Safehaven Discord server and began chatting with the players.

Summary

• Moonman reveals that he was a member of the Internet Detectives in 2016. During this time, he spoke to Jeremy on Skype - just like the players did during The Truth Arc. He also claims to own the "Moon Magic" book seen in the Greth Vlogs video "never sleeping", heavily implying that he is Greth.
• Moonman claims that Nocta would know Thomas - Kayd's friend. This further connects Nocta "Kevin Hendricks" and Kayd Hendricks.
• Moonman says that the "Truth Seekers" group on the Astral Observatory forums is simply a moderator group and is nothing special.

• At 7:07 PM, Nocta sent the player ARGdov a PM on the Astral Observatory forums asking if he would like to become friends.

11/22/18 - "Cryptids" - CircleHunter

November 6th, 2018

CircleHunter 1:51 AM: "So, I'm a native West Virginian. This state has a good few spooky creatures associated with it, not the least of which are the Mothman and the Flatwoods Monster. 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."
CelestialLight 10:54 AM: "What about, nessie the loch ness monster, my Favorite of the mystical monsters. they say its a creature said to inhabit Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands."

November 11th, 2018

nocta 3:06 AM: "Classic cryptids have been discussed so much, I've always been more fond of internet-age supernatural creatures."
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."
moonman31 5:40 PM: "SLENDERMAN TIME"

November 13th, 2018

Wolfcat 11:47 AM: "I spotted strange frog creatuore outside home... take a look...."
Wolfcat 11:47 AM: ((A blurry image of the Pokemon "Greninja" floating in the air is sent))
Darkzero 4:29 PM: "Is it just me or does it look a lot like greninja? ... or whatever it is written ..."

• At 11:36 AM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in a thread titled "Spirit World" created by the player CelestialLight on November 5th, 2018.

11/22/18 - "Spirit World" - CelestialLight

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

yuukichan 11:36 AM: "There is definitely a place beyond this idea of reality... Some say you can access such places through something called the parallelos (O∆O)"

Summary

• Yuukichan mentions that there are people who believe that realms beyond our own reality can be access through the parallelos. This reveals that she has a basic understanding of the Lunar Children concept of the "parallelos".

November 23rd, 2018

• At 2:23 PM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in the "Ok, this is important." thread once again.

11/23/18 - "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."

Summary

• Kaiden claims that Moonman is simply making fun of him in reference to his OC's backstory.

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.

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

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

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: 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 ?

Summary

• Moonman and Nocta have a brief argument. Moonman tells Nocta that no one is enemies with one another, but Nocta simply calls him an idiot.
• Moonman asks Nocta if he can just "let it go". Nocta says he can't and leaves the Safehaven Discord server.
• Moonman claims that the situation isn't exactly what we believe it to be. Moonman believes that his life may now be in danger.
• Moonman believes that there may be a traitor among the Internet Detectives.
• Moonman is able to reveal more to us now. He believes that the more we discover on our own, the more he is able to speak about.
• Moonman confirms that he is indeed Greth, but he never made "Greth Vlogs". He also claims that the Greth seen in the image on the front page of Johnisdead.com is not him. This means that Moonman and the other members of the Astral Observatory are from a separate timeline. Players commonly refer to Moonman's timeline as the "Astral Timeline", while they call their own timeline the "Prime Timeline".
• Moonman claims that there are some "dark things" happening within the Astral Observatory behind the scenes, and he is frustrated because he believes he may be too late to stop it.
• Moonman reveals that he no longer has access to "The Truth" board on the Astral Observatory forums. The password has been changed, and he has not been given the new one. He reveals that the previous password was "pqbxhtlopa" - the two ciphers that were previously discovered on Johnisdead.com.
• Moonman notices that a post has been deleted from "The Truth" board on the Astral Observatory forums, but he doesn't know what post it was since he no longer has access to that board.
• Moonman recalls submitting the "New Wave Bossa Nova" on Youshouldnthavedonethat.net, implying that the Astral and Prime timelines are fairly similar at some points.
• Moonman begins acting oddly as he is seemingly attacked by an entity. He posts strange messages such as "EVERYTHING IS TYLER AND NOTHING IS TYLE" and begins deleting his own posts. When asked who is doing this to him, he reacts to one of his own messages with an alien emoji, implying that "The Watcher" is responsible.
• The player Wolfcat submits the "Bow and Arrow" from Majora's Mask, resulting in Moonman returning to normal.
• The player Jos submits "Epona's Song", resulting in Moonman leaving with someone who was knocking at his door.

• At 4:41 PM, Moonman became active in the Safehaven Discord server and began chatting with the players once again.

Summary

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."
CelestialLight 10:29 PM: "It Seems like your annoyed by people."

January 11th, 2019

• At an unknown time, players discovered that a new video had been uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "Escape p.2".

1/11/19 - "Escape p.2" - Greth Vlogs

The video begins with someone driving through a wooded area. A man and a woman begin talking though neither of their faces can be seen. The male voice sounds like it belongs to Greth. It is a bit difficult to make out what they are saying.

Woman: "What are you doing?"

Man: "Making a video."

Woman: "Yeah/Now? It's gonna be on this next... (Unintelligible)"

Man: (Unintelligible)

The video then cuts to a a recording of a wooded area. It appears to be a park as a picnic table can be seen. The video cuts again to the man crossing a wooden bridge. A sign that reads "Davis Creek Trail" is in shot. The video cuts many more times of the man walking along the trail, though nothing of interest can be seen. The video ends with the man looking at a creek when suddenly a loud static sound is heard as a pixelated image of Moonman flashes on screen.

Summary

• This video seems to be a recording of Greth travelling to the hiking trail where he met Tyler following the video "Escape".
• A woman can be heard speaking to Greth while he's driving. This is likely his girlfriend, who was mentioned in a previous Greth Vlogs video.
• This video ends with an image of Moonman. This image coupled with the description implies that Moonman somehow leaked this video to the players.

January 27th, 2019

yuukichan 11:42 PM: "ugh these files are still corrupted. I'm sorry. I'm really trying. I wish I could will things into existence"

Summary

• Yuukichan is frustrated that her photos are corrupted and cannot be sent. She claims "I wish I could will things into existence". The "i" in "existence" in this sentence is a link that redirects players to a new page on Johnisdead.com. See below for more details.

• At an unknown time, players discovered that the "i" in the word "existence" in Yuukichan's newest post on the Astral Observatory forums linked to a new page on Johnisdead.com - "https://johnisdead.com/hh.html". This page was titled "case file" and contained the image that rapidly flashed photos of an old house titled "hh.gif". This page also contained a piano theme titled "mater.mp3", which is Latin for "Mother". The mentions of "mother" and the contents of "hh.gif" seem to imply that these photos are the ones Yuukichan took.
• At an unknown time, players discovered that the audio file "mater.mp3" contained a voice whispering "stop" at the end in reverse.

January 30th, 2019

• At 12:52 PM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in a thread titled "Timelines and time travel" created by the player Mercury on January 26th, 2019.

1/30/19 - "Timelines and time travel" - Mercury

January 26th, 2019

Mercury 6:01 PM: "I belive everytime someone or something does a choice, no matter the % ratio, it creates a new timeline with the opposite result of it. Imagine there are 2 people, 1 trying to marry the other. Example: 50% of the other person saying yes to something, 50% of the other person saying no to something Now we have 2 timelines, the Yes timeline, and the No timeline. If we continue, we could have a third and fourth timeline Example: After this person says yes to something, it rectifies to no. After this person says no to something, it rectifies to yes. Now we have 4 timelines. Time is really old, a lot of things has happen, imagine the number of timelines currently active in this reality. Now, years later, imagine there is a third person who is the son of those 2 people (from the Yes timeline, and the Yes rectified timeline). For some reason, it decies to make his mother say no, just by curiosity. It goes to the past, convinces his mother to say no (just cruious note: another timeline has been created where the mother ignores the son and he fails) Ok she says no and they never spoke again, what happens to this son, he dissapears? Nope. His timeline has dissapeared, but there is no reason for him to dissapear, he is a bunch of atoms not connected to that timeline any longer. And even if he could recreate the timeline again, if he goes to that new timeline, he would encounter himself but from that timeline, he would need to wait and see if that guy would return to the past, but that would mean that if that second himself sucessed, the timeline where he is right now would be deleted along him. the sad story about time travel is that if you ever try to change time, time will punish you deleting your world."
CelestialLight 7:05 PM: "Oh, Time is Very real.. but, the moon in history is known to be a part of the cycle of time and known to control people, like their moods.. after all, the full moon is known to bring lovers together. And People did say, Parallel Universes is a thing.. where you do something and the next thing you know, something else is happening in another. There has been story's on youtube of people, disappearing and some coming from a Parallel world to this one, only to vanish the next day, the world is such a big mystery after all we don't have all the clues and not all the answers, but maybe some day, this truth will come to light."
Mercury 7:10 PM: "Yeah, ever heard of Taured? https://blogs.publico.es/strambotic/files/2016/12/taured1a-515x400.jpg"
CelestialLight 7:13 PM: "I Watched a video on youtube of that place, vanishing from the map and a person saying they lived there, but when they went to show someone, that place is truly real. It was not on the map, really odd."
Mercury 7:15 PM: "That guy had a passport from a lot countries seal, which means they thought Taured is real, but this guy reached Japan and suddenly this city doesn't exist but the country Andorra replaces it, i think something in the past changed that the name changed to Taured or the name changed to Andorra."
CelestialLight 7:24 PM: "This is truly a Odd Mystery, the world is full of them."
Heliose 9:09 PM: "You would be surprised at the amount of mysteries the world has to offer. It truly makes you wonder what goes on behind the scenes."
Dense 9:46 PM: "timelines are a scientific reality"

January 29th, 2019

Jos 7:50 PM: "Ok let me fix all of this The 50%, why would a new timeline be created? When one thing happens, the other doesn't, a new timeline won't appear magically. If you were able to get back in time to change something, you automatically are negating te same reason why would you return in time, meaning you will never want to travel back in time. All other things you say seems taken out of a movie."
Dene 7:54 PM: "like ok cuck big damn yeet we get it fam u woke"
Mercury 7:58 PM: "Ha, like if you guys were scientist or something."
Dense 8:02 PM: "Let me tell you, HE IS YOU BASTARD"
Mercury 8:07 PM: "If you are going to be like this, then leave me alone."
Dense 8:07 PM: "like ok cuck big damn yeet we get it fam u woke"

January 30th, 2019

Kaiden_Zoromichi 12:52 PM: "Heh. You all speculate on time travel, but what would you know?"
Jos 1:06 PM: "i know nothing actually but like to speculate What do you know?"
Kaiden_Zoromichi 1:36 PM: "Hmph. I have experience."
Jos 1:40 PM: "May we hear it? it's ok if not >o<."
Kaiden_Zoromichi 6:43 PM: "It will all be explained in my two... or maybe three part Youtube series."

Summary

• The players discuss time travel. Kaiden scoffs at them, claiming to have experienced time travel personally.
• The players ask Kaiden to explain his experiences with time travel. He claims he will in an upcoming YouTube series, implying that perhaps he's simply referring to his past roleplaying adventures rather than actual time travel.

• At 6:47 PM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in a thread titled "Art" thread once again.

yuukichan 6:48 PM: ""If you are going to post here, post good stuff, not these things. Fucking id..." That was mean :c"

Summary

• Yuukichan and Kaiden praise the player Jos's fanart.

January 31st, 2019

• At 11:20 PM, players discovered that the Greth Vlogs account had left a comment on the video "Escape p.2" that read "upon several worlds did these men stumble, each world only slight less and more than the last. inviting themselves into these folds allowed their conscious too see her".

• At 11:59 AM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in a thread titled "The Hidden Truth" created by the player CelestialLight on November 12th, 2018.

2/1/19 - "The Hidden Truth" - CelestialLight

November 12th, 2018

CelestialLight 9:17 AM: "The Truth will get out there, the government just does not want us to show the truth. They are Hiding the Truth from the World! of what is truly out there. The Truth, will never be hidden.. no matter, how hard the government tries."
CelestialLight 2:59 PM: "I Made this, Because the Government and the one, who governs is hiding Many things from our Eyes, about what is really out there. Aliens and much more."

January 14th, 2019

Mercury 8:45 PM: "The only hidden truth technique of the gov is: GATMYCBE Which means Grab All The Money You Can Before Elections Those bastards only wants money and money, they cannot understand there is a greater thing called humanity safety, and day to day that safety will be destroyed and everything will collapse."

January 24th, 2019

Azura 11:18 PM: "If MKULTRA is anything to go off of, I would say yes, one should keep their eyes peeled. Even in America, things aren't always as they seem... especially now."

January 25th, 2019

CelestialLight 11:30 PM: "I heard of MKULTRA before, in a youtube video i watched, don't really remember a thing about it though, been so long ago."
Azura 11:52 PM: "The gist of it is that the CIA, sometimes without proper consent, would experiment with brainwashing American citizens. It's pretty fucked up, but it's a known fact that they did that. And it's kind of hard to really hold the government accountable for their actions... a lot of people just pretend that terrifying shit like that never happened. It's appalling."

January 31st, 2019

Timothycoent 6:42 PM: "Liberals dont want truth at all. They simply want Trump to fail - even if it means America fails."

February 1st, 2019

NotAHoax_M12 11:59 AM: "TRUMP IS PART OF THE VERY MACHINE THAT OUR OVERLORDS PLAY LIKE CHESS OUR ALIEN MASTERS PLAY EVERY HUMAN ON EVERY SIDE FOR FOOLS WITH THE ILLUSION OF POLITICS THE JACKET OF PRESIDENT IS NOT THE JACKET OF A FREE MAN BROTHER, THEY'RE THE HIGHEST LEVEL ACTORS IN THE BIGGEST STAGE PLAY YOU EVER FUCKING SEEN BROTHER"
Jos 4:24 PM: "Everything is just a game of Chess of a game of Chess of a game of Chess of a game of Chess and so on and so on. The president is not like the ultimate leader, there is another hidden layer with these aliens."
moonman31 4:34 PM: "truth"

Summary

• NotAHoax claims that politics are a staged chess game played by aliens. Moonman agrees, though it's unclear how serious he is.

• At 3:01 PM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in the "Moon Children" thread once again.

2/1/19 - "Moon Children" - Deadhead

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. There's a note from the old cult mentioning some place in Ohio called "The Spire" at the end of the video, along with what looks like an FBI document at 4:50?? I don't know what that's about, honestly."
yuukichan 7:17 PM: "What a spoOoOoky video~"

November 6th, 2018

CelestialLight 5:00 PM: "This is a very spooky video, this abandoned place is also very spooky looking."

November 10th, 2018

Z3R0 10:45 PM: "The moon children are an intriguing group, depending on what tree where you're looking from."

November 11th, 2018

moonman31 10:44 PM: "There's always been an interest in them on the internet, that's for sure"

November 15th, 2018

Wolfcat 1:22 PM: "I've been looking back over this stuff, and I'm not quite sure where to go from here. Apparently a lot of people at this "Spire" place mentioned in the note from earlier just flat out vanished. I can't find too much information on this, so I can't be certain. However, I can't find anything on this "Father Patrem" guy mentioned. It definitely makes it sound like he was the cult leader. Anyone got any info on this guy?"
Z3R0 1:40 PM: "Who is Ezekiel?"
Wolfcat 2:27 PM: "I don't know, honestly. I couldn't really find any info about that guy, either. There's a ton of other people mentioned in some other videos this guy uploaded, though. Here's the guy investigating an old building used by one of the cults: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmXkpyyX8YM He found some more interesting documents. Some of them are actually ciphered so they require some translating (Kinda like those weird Number Stations spies use), but they read the following: "read these off to the newyork grotto Something is wrong with Ifrit, he has snapped and started killing people via drowning and electrocution (ascension patterns) and seems to be trying to transcend them under the lunar children teachings (just like what seems to have happened to Kelbris after he killed him 10 years ago) according to that book Alex brought us. He hid his ceremony to Alex and according to one of your local guys, he got Spencer (I don’t know how unless he can somehow fucking teleport) but I’m sure you already know. New Text Document (3) Insidiea is a spy for the traitors do not trust him I understand now why he was so upset after Alex brought us that book from the lunars! I think ifrit is working with him or something." Seems to me like this place belonged to the Moon Children. Ifrit and Insidiae must have been double agents for the Lunar Children in some sort of secret cult war or some shit. I don't much about the Alex guy mentioned, but Ifrit and Insidiae were definitely on that Moon Children site, Youshouldnthavedonethat.net. If I'm remembering correctly, their names were Matt and Kevin respectively. It's also interesting that they mention New York. I thought these places were mostly centralized in Ohio and Florida, but I guess it spans ever further."
CelestialLight 8:12 PM: "Interesting Note.."

November 16th, 2018

Darkzero 9:35 AM: "in this point. you know what they want you to know. just walking on the palm of their hands. you are the puppets and they are the puppeteers. Ignorance is not bought or sold. They think they are right. but we know that they only know information that can be manipulated easily. they are simply half truths. a reality that only exists in the mind of those who believe it."
CelestialLight 12:51 PM: "So, Very True! Only people that believe, will understand Truth or the Reality behind all things."
Wolfcat 1:18 PM: "I'm only here to discover the absolute truth, no matter how hard it may be to swallow. The only way to be sure of anything is to do your own research and come to your own conclusions, not someone else's."

November 21st, 2018

Jos 7:10 PM: "How can you know which truth is the real one if any human can state any kind of truth saying is the truth. The truth only comes out when you fusion all the lies together and see where all those lies are avoiding or not pointing out. Those who seek the real truth won't belive anything, no one will tell you it, everyone will lie, it's up to you to find it."

nephalem 1:22 AM: "Además... Hay asuntos en mi vida que pueden estar relacionados con los hijos de la luna...necesito respuestas..."

December 25th, 2018

nephalem 8:04 PM: "en 2017 empezó todo... un amigo mio empezó a actuar de manera muy extraña durante un tiempo, comenzó a hablar solo y se ponía muy nervioso de un momento a otro por nada... un tiempo después,yo empecé a tener unos sueños extraños sobre unas personas sosteniendo un libro mientras decían palabras extrañas, parecían estar en trance... y de unas entidades que nos observaban... entonces despertaba en medio de la noche... no podía moverme... ni gritar... yo empese a sentir una presencia muy pesada... luego, abro los ojos y una mujer al frente mio... mirándome fijamente... gritaba... sierro los ojos y solo puedo escuchar campanas en mi cabeza... era insoportable... luego cobro valor y me muevo un poco... pero no pasa nada... intento dormir... y despierto en el dia... esto siguió pasando todas las noches... y decidí evitar dormir... intente investigar en internet sobre lo que me pasaba... resulto paralisis del sueño... pero era diferente... esta "parálisis" me empeso a dar en pleno dia... mientras veía tv o caminaba... siempre la misma alucinación... unos días después la falta de sueño me estaba afectando...empese a escuchar susurros... pero no se que me decían... un día en el colegio mi amigo hizo algo que me pareció muy extraño... fue al bosque (lo seguí) y lo vi con los ojos cerrados con la mano extendida mientras pronunciaba algo extraño...me vio, e inmediatamente se fue... en ese bosque pude sentir algo extraño...parecido a lo que sentía cuando me daba parálisis... al día siguiente al final de las clases... el me llamo... lo salude y luego extendió su brazo y me dio algo... me dijo: "esto es energía... tu veras lo que haces con ella" y yo le dije: what the fuck? ... sonrió y luego se fue yo simplemente cerré mi brazo y me fui..."
nephalem 8:04 PM: "el me pregunto que había hecho con ella... yo le dije que no savia, sonrió y dijo que la absorbi... luego me dijo que soñaria cosas extrañas de hai en adelante...y hacerto... tube el mismo sueño... pero esta ves mucho mas claro... vi el rostro de esas dos personas que estaban frente al libro... los conocía al dia siguiente fui a preguntarle sobre el tema a la segunda persona... inmediata mente su mirada cambio y me dijo que después hablábamos... en clase de informatica me dormí... y soñé cosas extrañas...algo sobre un bosque, pero no recuerdo mas... inmediatamente desperté... y empese a investigar en una pc... y recordé unos videos extraños que había visto con anterioridad... y comencé a indagar sobre silendork... lo que me llevo a otros canales extraños y a paginas tambien muy extrañas... unas me provocaban una sensación rara, luego de un tiempo de investigar llegue al la pagina de "internet detectives" y a otros foros que hablaban de los niños lunares... en el recreo le pregunte a mi amigo que si lo que pasaba tenia algo que ver con los hijos de la luna... estupefacto sonrió y me dijo que si... ya que en muchas de sus conversaciones hablan de cosas que se relacionaban con lo que soñaba..."
nephalem 8:07 PM: "un dia el me conto todo relacionado con el tema... dijo que hay unas personas que están destinadas a combatir a un demonio o entidad... y que eso se remonta a muchas décadas o incluso mas atrás... luego me explico que el y otros aun desconocidos son la reencarnación de esas personas... incluso me dijo nombres ademas explico que lo que yo sentia era la energía de entidades... y cosas asi en fin... me dijo infinidad de cosas... y entendi... y aprendí a controlarme al sentir esa energía... luego de un tiempo... y de muchos sucesos que marcaron mi vida... volvieron los sueños esta ves predecían catástrofes naturales con certeza... ademas soñe con las personas que estaban elegidas...ahí es cuando el me dijo que lo mas probable era que yo fuera uno de ellos..."
nephalem 8:09 PM: "seguí investigando sobre el tema y muchas veces hablaron sobre esas personas...incluso dijeron algunos nombres en fin... resulta que el primer amigo de el que hable no tenia que ver demasiado con los elegidos...solo tenia una capacidad especial de sentir ciertas cosas...pero también estaba algo mal de la cabeza... un dia mi amigo me hablo sobre un libro algo extraño que estaba enterrada y no debía ser encontrado...pero no sabemos donde esta... en fin... al final decidimos intentar dejar atrás eso... y no hemos vuelto hablar sobre el tema... pero la curiosidad de saber a donde llegara esto no me lo permite... ademas eh olvidado cosas muy importantes...pero no puedo recordar..."
nephalem 8:10 PM: "pero no todo lo que hablan concuerda... y es posible que solo sea una clase de locura colectiva...aunque lo dudo pero prefiero no estar seguro de algo tan lleno de posibles explicaciones..."

Wolfcat 3:55 PM: "Uh, I don't know what you're talking about, dude."
Jos 4:01 PM: "Alright but you want ketchup in your chips or not?"

December 27th, 2018

ARGdov 3:22 PM: "Gotta love it when someone decides to make multiple posts in a row instead of just writing one post like a normal human being. What the hell is the deal with those ellipses? Thats not proper grammar in any language out there."
Z3R0 7:54 PM: "If you have nothing intelligently relevant to say, why bother speaking at all. Criticizing ones' language and way of speaking shows enough of how relevant you yourself are in speaking. In other words, leave him be."

December 28th, 2018

nephalem 3:38 PM: "lo siento por la mala ortografía, me pongo nervioso cuando hablo sobre el tema y no me fijo en eso. además el traductor se equivoca mucho a veces. ¿pero me pueden ayudar o no?"

Kangee 10:56 PM: ""If you have nothing intelligently relevant to say, why bother speaking at all. Criticizing ones' language and way of speaking shows enough of how relevant you yourself are in speaking. In other words, leave him be." Woah there. You're being awfully defensive. That's unlike you; at least not the 0 I know."

January 31st, 2019

Z3R0 2:46 PM: "No one asked for your opinion. Maybe instead of trying to lure me into some convo you think you have power over perhaps you could try thinking ahead as to who might get the last word. I don't know who you are and I don't care. I'm not in the mood to deal with people like you. Roleplay somewhere else. Thank you."

February 1st, 2019

The Sun 12:53 PM: "Ey dude, pretty sure they're just saying you're taking things too seriously. The person they replied to who made that big wall of spanish text was the one roleplaying, anyways. Just relax and have fun, man. We're all on the same side and here for generally the same reason, you know?"
NotAHoax_M12 3:01 PM: ""We're all on the same side" Brother you are a born leader"

2/1/19 - "The Weather And Will Power" - CelestialLight

January 30th, 2019

CelestialLight 2:03 PM: "I have learned one can control the weather with their own will power and mind, to make rain happen and weather change, but its not good to do that.. when not needed, sense weather is unpredictable and can cause chaos. Weather is a very powerful force, that can destroy or bring life. Our Minds can do so many things, we don't even know about."
The Sun 2:20 PM: "If I could cause a thunderstorm with my mind I totally would abuse that power like no tomorrow; who cares if it causes someone's basement to flood? It'd be badass as all hell."
Jos 2:23 PM: "Yeah, It's called Climate Change. o̟̟͕ṛ ̧̭͇̝̬̺̠re͢v̱͕̰͇̞̱er҉̙̼̥̝̝̳͔s̠͎͈̬̫ͅe̱̬̙̗͈ ̳̝͕͈̭̲͈t̢͇̣͙̩e̜̙̜̯r̭͓̮r̟͍͓͖̗a̷͓̲̬̻f̯̥͇͚o̺͍̕r̖͙̹͙͎̱̖m̕ị͞n̨g͢."
CelestialLight 2:32 PM: "I Know, i am just saying.. as humans we have a deep connection to nature and everything around us, and if we put our energy into it, we can control it and maybe time itself."
The Sun 2:42 PM: "I'd rather just harvest someone else's energy and use that instead. I'm way too goddamn lazy to do it with my own. Why would you want to control time?"
CelestialLight 2:45 PM: "I don't know, i just like the thought of controlling the future."
Heloise 3:13 PM: "Although it would be handy to control the future or at least see it many things can be drastically changed with just one little touch."
The Sun 5:59 PM: "What fun would something like that be? I guess I'd kinda get it if you'd use it to stop time or gallivant around like a god, but nothing's fun if you already decide what happens."
CelestialLight 8:19 PM: "I was going to say the past, but the future makes more sense, because then i could figure out a persons actions before they do it or make someone stop doing something, then i could change something that they will do in the future before it happens and be the one on top."

CelestialLight 7:27 PM: "I am sorry, but those accounts really don't belong to me.. i am just trying to be nice and tell you that, just so you won't get me confused with someone else, i have no clue who any of these people you are talking about are nor do i know them and i really don't know who any of you are, i am just also posting my own opinions don't know why you are getting mad at me, all i am doing is posting stuff that interest me and things i seen on youtube a long time ago and i can't really get on a account that does not belong to me, now can i? i am just here to chat with like-minded people."
Jos 7:29 PM: "You sound really like Mercury there when dense told him "kys", what a coincidence."

3/10/19 - "What Happened to Everyone?" - CelestialLight

March 9th, 2019

CelestialLight 11:13 AM: "Where did everyone like go, are they busy or something.. its been like a year or so and no one has even come back to chat on this forum or even find out more conspiracy's of the government. I was so happy, i found people like me but now this forum is like dead, filled with nothing but silence and i know nocta is busy, but what about the others.. i miss them and i like speaking with them, i do hope sooner or later, everyone will return and we can be able to tell how the government wronged us and is hiding something from us, they don't want us to know about."
Jos 9:41 PM: "it's been just a month."
Mercury 9:45 PM: "Fuck off leave her alone you SD."
Wolfcat 9:50 PM: "Hey, calm down there. Anyways yeah, it's been quiet around here, but it hasn't been a year or anything."
Mercury 9:54 PM: "Can you guys leave us alone, Father Celestial Light and all of us are tired of you guys putting your nose where does not belong to, you SD, be gone now."
Wolfcat 9:58 PM: "Father Celestial Light? What, are you some sort of cult?"
Mercury 10:02 PM: "You KNOW well, stop playing dumb, you want to hurt Luna, thing I will NOT ALLOW. how dare you."
Mercury 10:04 PM: "Also, CelestialLight has a higher rank than your rank, so, she is ahead of you which means you MUST respect her."

March 10th, 2019

CelestialLight 9:08 AM: ""Hey, calm down there. Anyways yeah, it's been quiet around here, but it hasn't been a year or anything." Thanks for telling me, it has not been a year and i'm kinda wondering what the heck is going on with mercury, i came back from sleeping to find this. I don't even know Mercury or any of you or what could be Mercury's deal, don't even know who he is talking about or what he is talking about. I have no connection with any of you on here. And i don't want to start a fight on here. And i am wanting to know what the government hides, i want to know if that place the government is hiding with aliens is real."
Mercury 9:59 AM: "I don't care anymore Father, these SD ends here and now."
CelestialLight 10:20 AM: "I'm getting uncomfortable. i don't know you mercury or even who you're talking about, i am not even this person you are talking about, you are just talking nonsense. I'm just this random person online, who found this site while looking for zelda related forums."
Mercury 1:45 PM: "Father, I know you are afraid of them, but no need to be hiding anymore, we need to stick together, this is what Luna wants, you taught me her paths... the path of the Lunarian Children... to love her. I'm sorry father, but THIS must be done."
CelestialLight 2:13 PM: "Can someone do something to mercury, i don't know what this person is talking about and I never heard of anything, that comes out of mercury's mouth, i was searching for video game forums mostly the legend of zelda type forums. And i came across this forum, joined because i thought it seemed interesting and now, i have a confused person calling me this stuff, i never even heard of. Now Mercury, Please shut up.. i don't know you and it's getting annoying! you talking about this stuff, i never even heard of! and i am not into joining cults and never would be a part of one. Let's all just ignore mercury and move on to, finding our own truths. Also, i like everyone on here..."
Dense 2:30 PM: "BUG CUCKS"
Mercury 2:38 PM: "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND these are our enemies we can't keep this fake façade going on, YOU TOLD ME THEY WANT TO DESTROY OUR GROUP BECAUSE THEY HATE US THEY ENVY US IF WE KEEP DOING NOTHING THEY WILL DAMAGE LUNA AND I WILL NOT ALLOW IT. I don't know what the fuck got to you Father, but as I said, i'm not gonna stop, you told me to never surender against Solar Demons, I don't care."
CelestialLight 2:56 PM: "Yeah.. i don't know who you are or what your talking about nor do i care at this point, but please stop getting me confused with someone i never met nor even heard about and just let me, find out the truth the government is hiding from us. So, i was going to make another post about something like gaming or whatever and i could only think of this thread post, i am not really one for chatting and could not come up with anything else to say."
Mercury 3:26 PM: "Our children will know about this."
CelestialLight 3:30 PM: "Lol, i'm not Married to you. Don't even know ya!"
Jos 4:51 PM: "Let's chill, this drama is going out of control, amd these things neess to be resolved in private and not in everyone eye."
CelestialLight 4:54 PM: "Very True, Jos. But, i hope all of us find the truth that we seek."
Z3R0 5:07 PM: "How about this. Mercury, AKA Jos, maybe you should stop fucking around with Celestial Light. It doesn't matter who they are, or what they did. What you are doing is highly inappropriate and I wouldn't be surprised if it were labeled as bullying or harassment. Leave them alone, or I swear I will find a way to make you. So quit your silly ass roleplaying, it's clear no one cares for it except you and your dumb experiment with the IDs. If you are uncomfortable with what is going on or something wrong with the people around you, you may as well leave if it bothers you so much. I'm sorry for selling you out like this, however what you are doing in honest-to-god pissing me off. So stop. Thank you."
Z3R0 5:09 PM: "I'm sorry to the admins for the threat-sounding comment. But this foolishness needs to stop."
Wolfcat 6:24 PM: "So you're accusing Jos of having Mercury as an alternate account? Do you have any proof of this? Because from what I'm seeing, all Jos said in this thread was that it hasn't been a year since any activity, only a month. I don't think there's any reason for him to be getting all this shit. He's not "fucking around" with Celestial Light, he just corrected one thing she said."
Z3R0 7:02 PM: "That's something you should hear from your friend. If he's willing to tell you about it. I'm not wasting my time arguing with you over who's who."
Wolfcat 7:24 PM: "You're the one making the accusation. You can't just say "I don't wanna waste my time..." as soon as someone asks you to back up your claims. Well, I mean you CAN, but it doesn't really help your argument."
Jos 7:27 PM: ((A Simpsons gif is posted))
Buzz 7:33 PM: "I hope you all realize every single person on this site is just me replying to myself over and over again."
Z3R0 7:41 PM: "Grr...I was about to. but he fucking deleted every single fucking message. what the fucking hell jos. There's no way that's possible. You are the only one with your messages missing."
Jos 7:44 PM: "you handsome"
Wolfcat 7:53 PM: "Alright this is just getting stupid and has devolved into just throwing around baseless insults. Hey, at least activity has picked back up."
Z3R0 7:55 PM: "The internet is the perfect mask, and with this you could even make multiple. Shall I rain hell down upon you, then I shall if given good reason. I left your server by my own inducement, and I'm glad I found this reason. For I do not plan to come back, ever. From this point on, I consider you fools not only an annoyance among many, but an enemy as well. I'm glad to say this will not last long, as I intend to forget about you once I take upon the act of squeezing one last juice of amusement out of you. Do not make me laugh in trying to say I will have regrets. Because I will not. Of course, I will be watching closely nonetheless before I truly leave. goodbye. for now."
moonman31 8:58 PM: "itt: normals think they aren't"
CelestialLight 9:02 PM: "Hey, its Moonman.. nickname, meme man. How's it going?"
moonman31 10:13 PM: "I've got news for you"
moonman31 10:13 PM: ((The vaporwave track "Library" by Macintosh Plus is posted))

March 19th, 2019

• At 12:22 PM, the Astral Observatory members began posting in a thread titled "Dragons" created by the player CelestialLight on March 10th, 2019.

3/19/19 - "Dragons" - CelestialLight

March 10th, 2019

CelestialLight 3:09 PM: "Question, if you had a Dragon what would you do with it? and i believe, Dragons have their own realm apart from ours. Not much is known about them though."
Jos 4:53 PM: "The only thing I think as a dragon is a Latias, and I would have it to travel everywhere without the problem of buying gasoline or finding a place to park my car."
Buzz 4:58 PM: "I dunno, I haven't seen any dragons around here but they're said to be pretty powerful creatures, so maybe pact with one for some serious reality changing power? Occultist D.J. Conway created a sub-tradition of magic called "Draconic Wicca" about just that, revering and pacting with dragons. Can't say I believe in it though, seems like some hackish stuff. Assuming they're real though, they'd have a lot to offer in terms of power."

March 11th, 2019

Heloise 8:32 AM: "Dragons are very intelligent creatures, so assuming they were real they would be very cool creatures to just observe and learn more about."

March 19th, 2019

nocta 12:22 PM: "Despite the inherent cynicism humans have to the supernatural, it is certainly nice to believe. Why should we let society dictate what is 'acceptable' to believe?"
nocta 12:23 PM: "Something of note, by the way"
nocta 12:23 PM: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/the-bones-of-the-wawel-dragon-krakow-poland

Summary

• Nocta suggests that dragons could perhaps exist.

moonman31 1:48 PM: "So I am basically pretty sure Nocta knows I cannot be trusted anymore 100% so I’m basically on his shitlist now since he assumes that part of the forums got posted to Dumblr”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:49 PM: "Haven’t seen any of that, so I dunno what drugs he’s doin.”
moonman31 1:49 PM: "I surprisingly think he still trust Dov though which was the point”
moonman31 1:49 PM: "You need him there and I cannot really give you the inside scope anymore”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:50 PM: "You never could in the first place, if I recall.”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:50 PM: "Or has that restriction been lifted?”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "Man you are cranky :moonman:”
Dense 1:50 PM: "Oh fuck”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "Ok check this”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:50 PM: "Might have something to do with Wolf and Jos, but by all means, please carry on.”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "I didn’t mean Nocta when I said I was stalking ya boys”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "I meant I’ve been looking into a few things about our pretty unique situation”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "I had access to some stuff I can no longer access”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "Secret website shit”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "I’m not an elite hacker but there’s a subspace of the observatory for all the neato cult stuff you all suspect is there anyway”
moonman31 1:50 PM: "And I was reading some garbage about parallelos and stuff is making a whole lot more sense”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:53 PM: "Oh shit son”
Dense 1:53 PM: "Damn”
Dense 1:53 PM: "Wich means”
moonman31 1:54 PM: "But the most immediate concern for y'all is what’s up with my alt handle in your place”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:54 PM: "Exactly right, Dense”
Dense 1:54 PM: "Nocta is 100% ascended”
moonman31 1:54 PM: "Greth”
Dense 1:54 PM: "Ohfuck”
Dense 1:54 PM: "U rite where da fuck is greth”
Jos 1:54 PM: "Im back”
Dense 1:55 PM: "Joso”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:55 PM: "That account’s been active in my abse - Wait what?”
Jos 1:55 PM: "No im back”
Jos 1:55 PM: "tell me dense”
moonman31 1:55 PM: "I’m pretty sure from some email snippets that shit is about to get heavy but I literally don’t understand what the fuck they were talking about”
Dense 1:55 PM: "Just hi”
moonman31 1:55 PM: "Just they were talking about it a LOT”
moonman31 1:55 PM: "and it seemed bad”
Jos 1:55 PM: "Hi brother”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:55 PM: "I was gonna say, it was inactive up to when I left, but y'all are saying it’s not there no more?”
moonman31 1:56 PM: "That’s the first bit of news”
Jos 1:56 PM: "So, another subpage, the forums is a subpage, as there is one hidden huh”
moonman31 1:56 PM: "The second bit of news is an apology”
moonman31 1:56 PM: "For the bots.”
Mr t series good 1:57 PM: "that was you huh”
moonman31 1:57 PM: "I needed to slow down nocta so I literally invited scambots”
moonman31 1:57 PM: "sorro.”
Dense 1:57 PM: "Oh shit”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:57 PM: ”@Jos More like the forums are the surface page and this LC shit is a subpage.”
Dense 1:57 PM: “So it was you”
Jos 1:57 PM: "That is a good strategy”
Wolfcat 1:57 PM: "no need to apologize”
Wolfcat 1:57 PM: "thanks for the local russian hookers”
Jos 1:58 PM: "Can you send spam bots to luna to slow her down jk”
moonman31 1:58 PM: "The problem is I never had control of them per se but at least it worked for a while”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:58 PM: "So how much can you tell us, whether it makes sense or not, about what they’re talking about in this subpage?”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:58 PM: "Like maybe we can interpret”
moonman31 1:58 PM: "Something is going to happen with some sort of agent of Luna”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:59 PM: "Did they say what and whom? I know it likely doesn’t make sense, but did they actually say it?”
moonman31 1:59 PM: "They want to bring the final piece of the puzzle into place”
Mugen Kagemaru 1:59 PM: "Hmm…”
moonman31 1:59 PM: "I know it involves the parallelos”
Jos 1:59 PM: "Tyler is already taken i guess”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:00 PM: "Bruh I get it, it don’t make sense, but maybe they actually said the words?”
moonman31 2:00 PM: "I was never fully indoctrinated as you might say so I was pretty much at the same level as Dov”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:00 PM: "Meaning you won’t tell us what they said literally because it doesn’t make sense. Fine, whatever. We’ll move on.”
moonman31 2:00 PM: "I know the real hard core cult is nocta, yuuki, kaiden”
moonman31 2:00 PM: "Samuel too”

Wolfcat 2:01 PM: "she sent me a weirdass PM just saying "thewoods” like 100+ times”
moonman31 2:01 PM: “She’s been around on discord but neither of us has posted”
moonman31 2:01 PM: "I think she’s conflicted on some things”
Jos 2:02 PM: "Why all the waifus turns out to be dangerous”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:02 PM: ”@Wolfcat“
Mugen Kagemaru 2:02 PM: “I remember that, when was it again?”
Wolfcat 2:02 PM: "sometime in february”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:02 PM: "Hmm…”
Jos 2:02 PM: "when the haunted house gif was a thing”
Wolfcat 2:02 PM: "also im guessing you can’t just show us this "subspace” on AO right”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:03 PM: “Yeah she said when she went to the house she learned things about The Truth that she didn’t know before, which is why I thought it was dangerous for the pics to be shared carelessly.”
moonman31 2:03 PM: "I mean possibly”
moonman31 2:03 PM: "Actually”
moonman31 2:03 PM: "but I’d need time to figure out the new password”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:04 PM: "That implies it can already be seen by normal users…”
Wolfcat 2:05 PM: "just got a weird PM: ” from nocta”
Wolfcat 2:05 PM: “"Tengo un diablo en mis pantalones"”
Wolfcat 2:05 PM: “wait nvm that was from jos my bad”

moonman31 2:09 PM: "a motivational poster”
Jos 2:09 PM: "i must print one of those”
Jos 2:10 PM: "So yeah, I had the feeling the forums were just a façade”
moonman31 2:10 PM: "not really”
moonman31 2:10 PM: "more like a recruitment tool”
moonman31 2:10 PM: "but uh I had experience with the Moon Children as you know so the things set of my alarms big time and I wanted in to go undercover and it worked for a long ass time”
moonman31 2:10 PM: "I think I’m blown now though”
Mr t series good 2:12 PM: "F”
moonman31 2:12 PM: "F”
Jos 2:12 PM: "Will try to find this, true webpage, there must be a connection somewhere”
moonman31 2:13 PM: "technically speaking I’m still an Astral Child”
moonman31 2:13 PM: "but I have a feeling this is going to come to a bad place soon”
moonman31 2:13 PM: "since I’m obviously some kind of traitor”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:13 PM: "Yeah man you may wanna run for it and keep away from their places.”
moonman31 2:13 PM: "that’s the idea
Jos 2:14 PM: "And develop somekind of telepathic resistance, you know their powers”
Jos 2:14 PM: "i tried”
moonman31 2:15 PM: "you should also know there used to be a bunch more members of the forums that have not rejoined”
Jos 2:16 PM: "I guess Samuel is one of them”
moonman31 2:16 PM: "that concerns me, it’s been a longass time since we’ve been back”
moonman31 2:16 PM: "I mean at least he has an account?”
Jos 2:16 PM: "Yeah”
Jos 2:16 PM: "This is weird”
Jos 2:16 PM: "But i hope the cult didn’t do anything to silence them…”
Jos 2:16 PM: "for x reason”
Wolfcat 2:18 PM: "i might have asked this already i not sure tbh”
Wolfcat 2:18 PM: "but do you know exactly what was happening in the vid you uploaded to greth vlogs”
Wolfcat 2:18 PM: "like who was the lady in that vid”
moonman31 2:19 PM: "Yeah that was something I grabbed from the site”
moonman31 2:19 PM: "I was still trying to let you know I was feeding info without tipping off nocta”
moonman31 2:19 PM: "but that was the point where he started monitoring my traffic”
moonman31 2:19 PM: "shit was cash i got a vpn”
moonman31 2:19 PM: "that only worked for so long”
Jos 2:20 PM: "The thing is that this lady knew where to go, she had to give signs to this Greth to reach the place, whatever it is, i think the lady knows more”
Wolfcat 2:20 PM: "i suspected it might have been yuuki :thinking:”
Jos 2:20 PM: "Well, Nocta is theorized to be this being capable to controling electronic stuff, you could hide everything, but if he can sense it… its hard”
moonman31 2:21 PM: "uh what”
moonman31 2:21 PM: "idk about all that he owns the domain and forums so he probably just started intensely watching IPs”
moonman31 2:21 PM: "which he did after I uploaded that vid by getting into that youtube account”
moonman31 2:21 PM: "so in retaliation I flooded the place with scambots”
moonman31 2:21 PM: "and used a vpn to blend in”
moonman31 2:21 PM: "but that only worked for so long”
Jos 2:22 PM: ”“30 hot chicks near 21 km, what are you waiting for? click here"”
Mugen Kagemaru 2:23 PM: ”@moonman31 But yeah do you know who’s who in the video?”
moonman31 2:23 PM: “no clue”
moonman31 2:23 PM: "I just grabbed the file off the server because it seemed important and chucked it your way”
moonman31 2:23 PM: "the stuff i was seeing vs what I could directly share was always in conflict”
moonman31 2:23 PM: "I knew the instant I finally gave you a file or two”
moonman31 2:23 PM: "the war between the traitor and nocta would escalate”

Summary

• Moonman explains that he's been laying low as of late. Nocta realized that the players had posted the contents of "The Truth" board on the Internet Detectives Tumblr, and he believes that Moonman is responsible. Nocta now does not trust Moonman at all.
• Moonman says that Nocta still trusts the player ARGdov, which is the most important thing at the moment.
• Moonman reveals that he was the one responsible for all the scambots on the Astral Observatory forums. He invited them so that they would slow Nocta down.
• Moonman reveals that there is a secret part of Astralobservatory.net known as the "Subspace". The Subspace contains the Astral Observatory's secret cult-like information, whereas the Astral Observatory forums are more of a recruitment tool for new members.
• Moonman says that Yuukichan, Kaiden, Nocta, and Samuel are a part of the "inner" Astral Observatory and partake in more cult-like activities.
• Moonman has managed to hack into parts of the "Subspace" and retrieve some email snippets between Astral Observatory members. On April 23rd, 2019, something involving an "agent of Luna" bringing the "final piece of the puzzle" into place will occur. This will somehow involve the parallelos.
• Moonman isn't sure what's wrong with Yuukichan. He believes she is conflicted on some things.
• Moonman mentions that the "Subspace" is locked with a password - which he no longer knows.
• Moonman mentions that members of the Astral Observatory can be referred to as "Astral Children".
• Moonman reveals that there are two members of the Astral Observatory who have yet to return - IsocelesAssassin and an unnamed Spanish user.

• At 5:45 AM, the player Jos discovered that a new video had been uploaded to the Silentdork YouTube channel - "LevANnhUa".

4/23/19 - "LevANnhUa" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with strange music playing in the background. The imagery is difficult to make out through the green distortions, though it appears we can see an arm holding some sort of moving object. An image of a gate of some sort soon overlays the footage. The footage fades out as a cipher appears on screen, which can be viewed down below in the images section. The cipher has only been partially solved:

"Come home today"

"//’X<; pg2:It"

Summary

• This short video contains imagery of gates and a strange, green environment. The description implies that Tyler will be travelling somewhere.

Summary

• Moonman has convinced someone within the inner circle of the Astral Observatory to leak him some videos. The video "sacredartifact.mp4" was one of these leaked videos. Moonman was able to hack into the Greth Vlogs YouTube channel to upload it.
• Moonman believes that these videos have something to do with what the Astral Observatory members were discussing regarding an "agent of Luna" and the "final piece of the puzzle".
• Moonman believes that Nocta may be following orders from someone or something from the players' timeline.

• At 6:41 PM, the player Mugen Kagemaru discovered that a new video had been uploaded to Greth Vlogs - "guidance.mp4".

4/23/19 - "guidance.mp4" - YouTube (Greth Vlogs)

This video starts with clearer footage of what we were shown in the video "423" with a man kneeling before the mannequin-like "Drowned" entity. We can now see that there is another figure standing behind it wearing a gas mask. Both entities order the kneeling man to rise. As he does so, we can see that he is now wearing a mask, though it is difficult to tell what exactly it looks like. The footage repeatedly shows the taller entity, now clearly shown to be wearing jeans, a shirt, and a gas mask, reaching out to the masked man.

Summary

• This video seems to be a continuation of the video "423". A man wearing a gas mask appears behind the mannequin-like "Drowned" entity and commands the kneeling man to rise.

• At 7:04 PM, the player Mugen Kagemaru discovered that a new video had been uploaded to the Silentdork YouTube channel - "g4".

4/23/19 - "g4" - YouTube (Silentdork)

This video begins with a green, distorted Alex coming into view as a strange version of the "Song of Unhealing" plays in the background. The camera suddenly falls as a "Please stand by" screen appears. Several cryptic sigils flash on screen: a Parallelos sigil, a sigil of two arrows, an ornate diamond pattern, and the Lunarum Oculus. Alex comes back into view as "mask2willfindyou.webm" flashes on screen. Alex begins speaking as text appears.

"He just took the trip."

Images rapidly appear. One is of Tyler in one of his recent livestreams, followed by the close-up of the runes discovered on Johnisdead.com, and finally what appears to be the inside of an old house along with a long haired entity. We then briefly see some footage of what seems to be Greth running towards the camera as Tyler looks down at the detour sign, possibly just having teleported somewhere. Alex speaks again.

"We will show you where later"

We are shown more footage of what appears to be Tyler's yard as the cameraman approaches the detour sign as a man approaches him from a distance. "Mask2willfindyou.webm" overlaps Alex's face as we are shown footage of a bridge, possibly the same bridge seen in previous videos.

Summary

• Alex informs the players that Tyler has been taken somewhere. We will apparently be told where he has gone at a later point in time.
