[SPOILER]Ep1 Plot Summary - Doffy90 - 04-05-2007 Ok since Im obviously stupid (not really but I am lazy and didnt read all those looooong notes, but I read some) can someone please summarize the plot for me. ![]() RE: Ep1 Plot Summary - Willbreaker - 04-06-2007 Spoiler below!
I guess that's it. /Breaker RE: [SPOILER]Ep1 Plot Summary - Doffy90 - 04-06-2007 What about the cult? I saw someone mention a cult or something. RE: [SPOILER]Ep1 Plot Summary - Thaliur - 04-06-2007 I don't think the involvement of the cult was clear in the game. The only thing I've seen that could refer to anything like a cult was a book abaout Greenland Myths. RE: [SPOILER]Ep1 Plot Summary - Willbreaker - 04-06-2007 And then there are two messages more than that Thaliur. The employment list and the message from a subordinate to the high caste. /Breaker RE: [SPOILER]Ep1 Plot Summary - Thaliur - 04-07-2007 Oh, yes. I forgot about those two. Just read them again and, yes, you appear to be right. In the case of the employment list I assumed this was just some weird ranks the survivors created.

I suppose majority of 1990-2001 notes are notes of the cult members (for instance 3 notes of "spider's lover", he was a member of cult expedition too as I understood). All notes can be divided on 5 major periods: First - preWW2 period, old iron mine Second - WW2 period, military base Third - postWW2 period up to 1954, old iron mine again, was closed in 1954. Fourth - 1956-1972, 'new', rebuilt iron mine, some catastrophe occured in 1972 and 40 something workers vanished, bodies not found, mine was closed. Perhaps it was just explosion (see note), perhaps something much more frighteful occured after explosion with survived workers as no bodies were found. Fifth - around 1990 - 2001, cult expedition period. According to note of "spider's lover" the same cataclism that occured about 30 years ago (1972) and because of which they (cult expedition) arrived, occured again in 2001 just when Philip arrived to the mine. RE: [SPOILER]Ep1 Plot Summary - Willbreaker - 04-07-2007 Sure, they can be notes written BY cult members, but they don't refer to the cult, right? /Breaker |
