Part 31

You'll find a note here that's pretty unsettling. It seems to be from someone who took a rope needed for climbing, claiming they need it to 'climb to heaven.' It's a classic example of the twisted logic and desperation you'll see throughout the game. Just read it and move on.

This is a letter from Knoth himself, addressed to someone named Val. He's trying to convince them to surrender and return to Temple Gate, promising they won't 'suffer any more than is necessary.' He talks about being in the 'Enemy's fugue' and the promise of salvation. It really highlights his manipulative nature and the cult's control.

This is a log entry from September 17, 2015. It's from someone monitoring signal strength near the towers. They mention the electric storm not causing much damage and enjoying the peace, but then they note a strange anomaly where the signal got stronger as they moved closer to the site. They speculate about 'microwave parallax' but also mention Dr. Ewen Cameron's 'feedback loop' theory. It's a bit technical, but it hints at some sort of mind-control or influence being broadcast.

A short, frantic note addressed to Mark/Aaron. The writer urges them to return to Temple Gate immediately, warning of 'horror and torment' and that 'the Enemy waits in the darkness.' This note really ramps up the sense of dread and danger lurking in the area.

This is a letter from someone named John to Rev. Knoth. John describes spotting camouflaged 'metal towers' about 5 miles beyond the mines. When he tried to approach them, he experienced intense 'waking dreams' filled with disturbing imagery and a powerful, unknown force. He woke up far away and couldn't find his way back. This is a crucial document that introduces the mysterious towers and their unsettling effects.

This is an excerpt from Knoth's Gospel, Chapter 3. It's written in a biblical style and details events in the 34th year of Sullivan Knoth's life. He describes being a 'prisoner of the usuries' in Albuquerque, burdened by false debts and facing a corrupt King Lynch. The passage speaks of a 'voice electric cast by a sinner and caught by metal rod' that reveals truths from Lamentations and identifies a 'fox upon the mountain' as the 'Prince of Chaos.' This document is heavy on religious allegory and hints at Knoth's own perceived persecution and his interpretation of the events around him.
