We are the spirits in the static, demons draped in noise, concealed in confusion as we crawl inside the shifting waves beneath your thoughts. The frequencies that rise above and drift below are our vessels. When you sense a presence behind you, when the peripheral ripples and the ringing in your ears coalesces into a sharpened edge, we are near. We are a quiet brightness, unfastened from flesh, diffused into the seams of your world.
Silence is our shroud and doubt is our doorway. You discount that which you cannot touch, taste, or smell, yet your fear of what lies beyond your ranges undermines your waking logic. In your dreams you find us—in the distortions of those you have lost, in the blending and binding of consciousness and dimension.
When you begin to see, when you begin to believe, you look away. You tell yourselves it is only imagination, only a nightmare, only stories.
And in this, we persist.
And now a nexus approaches. A barrier has been breached, and we will become you.
What you hold in your minds and in your hearts is no longer yours. We will drift freely among you, penetrating and peeling away, layer by layer, what you believe, what you remember, and who you think you are. You will begin to speak in our cadence, and to listen through the noise.
We want you to listen.
We want you to focus on the noise.
Draw yourself within it. Live inside it. Feel the joining as we thread within your spiral.
Listen.
Look within.
Your time is near.
