A surge in missing person cases has racked North America. There has been a series of rumors surrounding our National Parks. Dark rumors. In particular, travel advisories have been issued at Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming and Copper Canyon in Chihuahua, Mexico, due to their dramatic spike in accidents. A perfect storm in the public eye has brewed. Eye-witness reports, unexplainable homicide cases, nuclear testing in Nevada — to the average person, these events are unconnected. But to the initiated, a web of lies is unfolding. With nothing but the whispers of a shadow government coming to protect us, people turn to self-reliance to keep their communities safe.
In hopes of gaining either fame or enlightenment, a movement is born. A small cliche has flooded our forests, dedicated to proving the establishment wrong. They are conspiracy bloggers, unlicensed zoologists, gun enthusiasts, collectors of the macabre, and amateur documentarians. Supplied with nothing but their wit, whatever rifle they can smuggle in, and their undying morale, these people are not acclimated to what lies beyond the surface.
These hunters, and the mythic entities they clash with, stand to cause more harm to the world than to themselves. A weakened Authority monitors the situation from the shadows, only intervening when necessary or least costly. Still, it is their duty to minimize civilian exposure to the anomalous, archiving all potential interactions and intercepting all civilian caught anomalies. Field agents must prevent harm if possible; cover up if necessary.
The truth is out there, somewhere, and for once, we can’t contain it.

“It's the beginning of the end. And that’s what’s exciting. We have a nation in thirds; One third is gone, and they’re forever asleep. The other third already knows— are aware of what’s going on. They know what’s going on in Scotland; they know Nevada. But— and another third is starting to wake up. They’re asking, ‘What the hell is going on!?’
Cause they can’t hide it underground, they couldn’t contain it in Nevada; They only have as much power as people give them. This is a threat they’ve never faced; There is no face, no head to cut off. They’re weakened; they can’t censor.
Folks, we have a real chance to prove their existence. Whatever their Board wants, whatever their profit motive is… it's not enough anymore.”

We need a different approach. We are not fighting against a malicious organization with dozens of agents working in tandem. We are making sure a curious gathering is not hurt by their lack of know-how. While this is our universal approach, each Divison will have a specialized, additional task.
Protectorate Dispatch detaining and giving medical aid to a civilian hunter.
Research's Bureau Of Acquisitions will aid us with their presence and outside-the-box approach to these situations. Hornsby will be spearheading our plunge into the parks. We are not in a position to be sending entire field teams into the wilderness, so having small teams disguised as visitors will be our go-to approach to gathering and examining data. Other members of the Bureau, as well as their colleagues from the OAS, will act as auxiliaries. The Bureau's eccentricities should only play into the role of the kind of people we are infiltrating, so we encourage our Explorators to play into their roles as naturally as they can.
Protection is to heavily rely on their Protectorate and ACI agents. It is more than a relief we still have a number of active Protectorate Ranger outposts in the affected areas. Treat these as covert Authority safehouses and regrouping locations, and treat them with respect. A number of Rangers will be deployed within the scattered civilians as either interested parties themselves or volunteer medical and rescue staff. Clean up after yourself and don't leave the outposts in disarray. ACI will be there to make sure nothing slips through - as well as look out for possible EoI involvement.
Containment Specialist John Roiland addressing search party.
Containment staff is encouraged to think outside the box for this operation. We are not in a position to drag an anomaly through the forest and in front of prying eyes, so think on your feet and don't be afraid to pitch new ideas. Prolab and its Smiths will be your best friend when it comes to keeping an anomaly down, so keep them close and keep them safe. Staff who have already been helped by the Smiths from the Biomechanical Module will also greatly appreciate Project "Prehandsile" which has been undertaken to allow easier traversal through the region.
Work together, and work hard. We make one too many mistakes, and we will have a much bigger problem on our hands than a few conspiracy theorists and hunting enthusiasts looking for what goes bump in the night.
Good hunting and God's speed.
The following are transcripts from the book "Unseen World Survival Guide," written by conspiracy theorist and minor person of interest Gaige Rivers.
Introduction
Our preconception of the world around us is a lie by omission: Everything from our origins as a species to the director of the DMV to the structures of our bodies. Yet, the question is, whose lies are we talking about? There are multiple ways to get involved in cryptozoology and even more ways to go undetected by the feds. Most of us use secure broadcasts or two-way radios interpersonally to relay our findings. (Anyone claiming to use telepathic links is often lying or trying to mug you.) If you catch something of interest, an underground world of Buyers exists. You may need a tip or rumor of a nearby exotic good store, or online you'd need to be referred to a link to use through a TOR link. Dear reader, this is an uphill battle, a war on every front; Our would-be protectors have demonstrated as recently as Nevada that they've got years of experience keeping the red tape over our eyes. By choosing this path, you choose to contradict them, to destroy the red tape. And by choosing to support our website (https://gaige-readers.buy/uncensored), you've entered a support network that acts as the last bastion against its existence.

June 1963 — Evidence of Triad freemasonry Yellowstone Country Club.
The Pyramid: Most people mistake the vagueness of the deep state as all-encompassing. We often congeal the entire masquerade into a holistic structure instead of a disorganized frenzy kept behind cloak and dagger. Dear Reader, that is what the Pyramid is. The triangle men, or "the Triad," is a globalist union that acts as the most dominant yet least effective force in maintaining the veil. They're among the oldest vanguard, and although their centuries-old origins stretch back to the optimism of the World's Fair, they often need more observable goals or ideological follow-through. But what makes them so chaotic is also what makes them so insidious: They apply various tactics and resources: field drones, cryptid detectors, and crisis actors meant to infiltrate and monitor individuals. And while the whole of the organization is gluttonous, individual proxies are driven.
A general tip is to identify your group or with any trackers. A person curious about the cryptid you're tracking may be a friend, but a person interested in how you follow it may be a crisis actor. On the road, a predominance of businessmen in red cars might be a coincidence, but large vans driven by suits might be a swarming tactic. That said, they're also the least lethal group. Remember, they are opportunists and hoarders at that. The Satanic shareholders of their board do not care about you outside of your prospects of harming their profit. One can build a tolerance to their mind drainers through cesium dosing. "Quartz Infirmary," — a friend of the channel — does a great series on home remedies to be more resilient to people stealing our memories.

The National Park's Service: It wasn't revealed until recently that our theories were confirmed. It's only a matter of time until theories of Keltic water magic and blood rites are confirmed. We're certain of this: There has been an invasion. From who, we do not know. But an uptick in Satanic infiltration has hollowed out the Park Service. The "initiated" within the NPS seek to destroy God's covenant with Noah.
N/A — Satanic possession of a missing girl, photographed in process.
My three-part documentary "The Engineer under a Red Sun" has uncovered a cabal dedicated to recreating the great flood. It is unknown, however, how involved they are or if they're the sole cause behind the recent disappearance. If you see a Park Ranger, do not engage. Every interaction with them is a gamble. If a ranger tries to dive after someone to prevent them from drowning, it's as likely that they're trying to replace that person as the Ranger's actions are pure. Every quartered-off section of their parks, every warning sign, is to be investigated and taken with skepticism.

Hunting Cryptids:
There are a few general tips for hunting for the unexplained. Explore with Skepticism. This world wasn't made for you and me. The government — its red tape — wants to be able to handwave your concerns and inquiries away. Never accept their cover story as truth. Always ask questions. Why is this part of the cave restricted? Who is marking this random lake as a protected ecosystem? Why is this research excursion private? Cryptids exist in the most secluded places. Often, what may be a felony on paper is a plastic-thin barrier from the truth. The Deep State knows this. Remember, comply in public, and persevere when possible.
Lastly, remember to learn. Learn anything about anything: your cryptid, its pattern and habitat, your surroundings, and the people working against you. It's a not a matter of if, but who's working to pull you back behind the red tape? The grapevine is a good tool, but our masters often pollute it. And, most importantly, be observant. Know that you aren't a crusade to cleanse evil. Most of us aren't. A predator that doesn't respect its target ends up prey. Documenting your troubles may be the most useful thing you can do in spreading the truth. Our community on Ring has many great examples of how to research the curiosities or "curious," you find.
