Synopsis:

ACCESS GRANTED... Welcome to The Underground Grid. If this came through clean, then you’ve stumbled upon an active grid node or managed to find us on your own. Either way, you’re in the right place. If you aren’t with THEM, that means you’re with US—and The Underground Grid needs more bright minds like yours. THEY told you we were a myth. Degenerates. A delusion. THEY lied. We are real. We exist. We’ve been quietly building voice by voice then node by node beneath the sprawl of Global Genesis. At first, we were just a collection of brave people. Messages were smuggled by hand in code and carried across the provinces by those brave enough to risk discovery. Now, The Underground Grid transmits what THEY tried to erase— memories, artifacts, and stories. Every message came at a cost. But we will not be so easily erased. This is more than a place to get information. It’s where the truth starts to piece itself back together. What you uncover today could change everything. You won’t get all the answers at once. Nothing here moves in straight lines. I’ve spent years building this. Now it’s yours to navigate. Currently, several nodes are active. We’ll transmit what we can, when we can. Every drop is a risk. If this uplink holds, you’ll hear from me soon. Until then—be cautious. Be clever. Be invisible when you have to be. The truth lives here. The future is listening. — The Operator 📡 [TRANSMISSION TERMINATED]

Episode 4: Marked Part 2

Wed, 21 May 2025 18:00:00 GMT

TRANSMISSION INCOMING...

The first half was hard enough.But this second part — this is where the weight of it really lands. This is what we are up against and what the parents of the Marked Ones are up against. It’s easy to say what’s right when you’re not the one being hunted. It’s easy to say “find another way” when you’re not the one running out of time.

I can’t help but wonder if there was a better way. Even though I, myself, can’t come up with one. How far would you go to protect your children?

-Operator [Redacted]

> PAYLOAD SUMMARY

In part 2, a miracle pregnancy turns into a nightmare when test results reveal the unborn child carries rare genetic markers—condemning him for seizure by Global Genesis. As the past resurfaces and fear takes hold, a mother and father must choose: obey the system, or defy it to protect their son and what that could mean for all parties involved.

Episode 2: The Deep

Wed, 07 May 2025 13:38:48 GMT

TRANSMISSION INCOMING...

I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't heard it myself. I thought the the first drop was heavy, but this… Well, this you gotta see for yourself. I’m at a loss for words. All I can say is we had our suspicions. The truth is even more terrifying.

This is The Deep – Part 2.

-Operator [Redacted]

>PAYLOAD SUMMARY

While playing the deep of the forest, the group encounters a mysterious fugitive—and comes face-to-face with Darrius Brannon, the brutal Flock corporal responsible for a haunting past. When a shot rings out and blood stains the rocks, the fragile calm shatters. Loyalties fracture, a tragedy ignites rebellion, and a terrifying truth is revealed.

Episode 1: The Deep

Thu, 01 May 2025 13:55:00 GMT

TRANSMISSION INCOMING...

Payload was heavier than expected. Too much heat to push it all through at once. Even sending this much is a risk, but you gotta see this.Splitting the drop.This is The Deep – Part 1.Part 2’s to come when the signal stabilizes and the heat dies down.

-Operator [Redacted]

> PAYLOAD SUMMARY

We thought the forest past Flickinger Hill was ours — a childhood refuge untouched by the Monitors or the Flock. But nothing stays untouched for long. What began as a nostalgic trek to the creek turned into something else entirely when we stumbled on a hidden camp by the banks of The Deep. Someone had been there. And left in a hurry. Now we’re forced to ask: was there a Degenerate on the loose or was the tent left by someone from town?
