UNKNOWN CALLER: Kid. You don’t know me, but I picked one stranger at random to dump this on, in case everything I’ve done ‘til now was tracked. Sorry.
Crateshya: Oh shit. Oh shit, UC!!!
Wilderness: Are you getting messages from them?
Crateshya: (texted) uc????
Crateshya: (spoken) Yeah, what the fuck!
Polar: What’s happening?
Wilderness: Unknown Caller is having a conversation.
Crateshya: (Long string of nervous expletives)
Nickymumu: (muffled/indistinguishable)
Wilderness: (muffled/indistinguishable)
Crateshya: Hold on, I have to go somewhere. We can’t leave, hold on, hold on. Holy shit my heart is beating so hard…
Wilderness: The Unknown Caller is (indistinguishable), skeptical of the voices.
Nickymumu: So...actual person, but not associated with the Voices?
Wilderness: Yes, (indistinguishable)
Nickymumu: Huh.
UNKNOWN CALLER: Irony of it is, if you’re seeing this...that paranoia didn’t do shit to save me. I’m dead, or... worse. I hope you know where to go.
Polar: How do you like get a um...triggered talk things.
Crateshya: Oh boy, ok. (Approaching the Shattered Symbol room) Thee-I-Dare, don’t come in here.
Polar: Like, whatever you say will trigger something? Something you say will trigger something?
Crateshya: alright, I’m here.
Nickymumu: Supposedly uh, saying a Voice’s name will summon them.
Polar: Uhhh, I guess. What are the Voice’s names?
Crateshya: Hold on.
Nickymumu: There’s a good many.
Wilderness: Unknown Caller is shy and will only talk to one person. So don’t worry about it won’t happen to you.
Nickymumu: Oh yeah, that’s fine.
UNKNOWN CALLER: Looks like you knew. Good. I hope you’re recording this, because I ain’t around to send it again.
Crateshya: (talking over others) Alright guys, I need you to be quiet, this is very important. Please be quiet.
"THEE-I-DARE: (The recording plays, indistinguishable at first. "I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN FOR THIS. WEAR YOUR ASS LIKE A PELT. I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN FOR THIS. WEAR YOUR ASS LIKE A PELT." (Recording stops playing)
Crateshya: (weakly) Oh my god.
(excited chattering)
Polar: Alright, so what are the names?
Wilderness: That wasn’t the Hunter. That was a recording of the Hunter, right?
Crateshya: That was not the Hunter, that was the Adversary.
Nickymumu: Who was that, just then?
Polar: Alright, so how do you summon one of these Voices?
Crateshya: Very carefully. Oh, jesus…
Wilderness: Generally, you can’t.
Crateshya: (Overlapping) Wear your ass like a pelt, oh my god.
(excited chatter continues)
Crateshya: (written in text) i got it. please be ok (spoken, pacing) Oh boy.
Wilderness: Are you still chatting with the Unknown Caller?
UNKNOWN CALLER: Kid. Weird to say this to someone I’ll never know. That was it. All I managed to process of the sleep-singing sculptor. WTF is my life. Was. Aw, hell.
Polar: Huh? No, I’m not chatting with anything.
Wilderness: No, uh. Crateshya.
Polar: Huh? Oh.
Crateshya: Yeah, I’m still chatting, I don’t know if that was the last one or not.
Polar: Does that mean two people have invaded our game?
Crateshya: The Unknown caller has been sending a lot of texts. Oh my god. I’m glad I got back on. Oh my god. (Another string of anxious expletives.)
Wilderness: I recorded it.
Crateshya: Yeah, I recorded it too. I’m- hoo. Hoo. Ok. Give me a minute to get down there, I just wanted to make sure that was the last deadman’s switch.
Nickymumu: Wait, what’s the deadman’s switch?
Crateshya: The Unknown Caller’s probably dead. Gotta sin a little bit to get them off… Oh boy, I’m gonna have to clip that up. I’m SAD NOW. UC…oh no, honey… alright, I think you guys- I think we’re good to go.
Wilderness: I dunno, I never got to have a conversation with them, so…oh no, they’re dead.
UNKNOWN CALLER: Remember: The Voices don’t care about you. Strangely, right now...I do. I hope you were nice. Please. Stay awake for the whole goddamn species.
Crateshya: UC...
