001 [Audio]
[Audio. He speaks fairly quickly.] Diane - 11.18 am. I seem to have lost my microcasette recorder. I've obtained a strange, futuristic-looking device with an audio function instead. Though I realize the chances of this reaching you are quite slim, there's still a comfort in adressing this to you. [A brief pause.] I appear to be in a different plane of existence - another world, if you will. I certainly hope this alternate universe has nothing to do with the Black Lodge, but I feel confident that it’s something different entirely. You could call it intuition. I feel slightly troubled by the owl that's following me-
[As if on cue, you hear a bit of rustling, followed by a quiet 'hoot'.]
- it doesn't look like any kind of owl I know of, but can hardly be classified as anything else. It seems to be of gentle nature, but I can't help but think of what the Giant told me. "The owls are not what they seem"...
[He goes quiet for a while. After a couple of seconds you can hear how he takes a steps, and then a short breath before he starts speaking again.]
Diane, the town I’m in appears to be called New Bark, if the signpost to my left is any indication. I will proceed to ask the locals about the situation. Once I’ve managed to shed some light on this, I’ll update you with any information I’ve obtained.
[Click. Looks like someone didn't realize he was broadcasting this~]
