Someone said Culver City in the broadcast. Does anyone recognize it that street?

Next to a Trader Joe’s

There are some minor spoilers and a couple facts in this that reframe previous experiences. Proceed with caution.

Also, it (lightly) outlines future plans for Tension. Something to hope for, truly.

Even if you want to avoid spoilers, it’s safe to say that the current plan is for Tension not to end after Ascension.

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

Welcome! At present, we don’t currently have any active projects that require any work or anything like that. However, One will be arriving soon and none of us knows what that will entail.

For now, it’s best for you to get caught up on what’s been happening so far. How Tension gets its messages out, what the story is so far, that sort of thing. We have links in this forum to help you get started, and we’re certainly available if you should have any questions.

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

Well done, thanks for your help!

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

It’s the finale. Indoctrination ends when Ascension begins. The two are linked but not as directly as one would think. Whatever happens on the 7th… it is the culmination of all that we’ve done so far so that we can have a clean slate for what comes next

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

I doubt that it was a quick walk by. I think that it’s someone we’ve met already.

Or one of us.

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

Go, and make your mark on Tension for all time with our blessing

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

Haha hey glad to help. Stick around and maybe someone’ll view you the same way

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

Ah, so Tension refers to the Experience as a whole, all that this is. Within Tension, there are currently two major factions:

1. The OOA, the cult organization that you’ve heard so much about and that runs everything, using Gatekeepers as their mouth pieces.
2. The BOS, standing for the Brothers of Seraph. A “rebel” group comprised of Ex-OOA members, family members of those who have been taken into the OOA, and generally anyone who want to bring the OOA down. The Brothers of Seraph are run by a mysterious figure who goes by Sentinel.

As for “Glory Be”, that’s something that we’ve never fully understood, ourselves. More or less, it seems to be a salutation that the OOA uses, probably as a substitute for what many in the modern world would use “Amen” or “Hallelujah” for. It presumably means “Glory be to Anoch”, the godlike figure that they worship.

There’s only one side of the Force. The other side is just a corruption of it.

As for the Chronicles, they’re weekly write ups that participants promoted within our ranks have written. The most recent one can be found here and each should contain a link to the week before it. They don’t go as far back as MHL or the Timeline, as we started it more recently, but it contains more in depth descriptions than the timeline.

The forum posts are definitely something that I would look into only if you are really curious and have the time. You can see most of our reactions and progress as we made it, but it is quite the undertaking.

The amulets one is a puzzle of connections. What connects the things that you see? You’ll find the solution there.

Finally, the language is definitely a hard barrier to cross, many of us have obsessed about this for months so we’re basically using our own language. Most will become clear if you look hard enough but this forum is specifically geared towards helping new Aspirants so we’re ready to help here. Do you have any language that you don’t understand at this time?

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

I think that there was some freakout happening around the Sam/OSDM days, especially during the leak that mentioned the Gordon assets. I don’t know how in depth that it went but I think some people were freaked out about the implications that Tension had some impact on the stock market.

I feel it’s generally safe to say that if one person was publicly concerned about anything, there are other people who are quietly freaking out privately ten times harder than anyone going public

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

I welcome you Zannah, (even if you’re a damn dirty Sith….) The three resources that I recommend to people looking to get the full picture, ordered from most summarized to most in depth is the Timeline, the Chronicles, and the MHL podcast so you’re pretty much on the right track as far as getting caught up.

For the puzzle, are you referring to the letters/amulets puzzle on the front page? That’s definitely relevant because at the end it shows something pertaining to a woman’s experience at her Ascension, which may shed some light on what we’ll be going through for ours.

As for the Consultations, yes I’m afraid those ended back in… I want to say March. If you missed a Consultation then you’re certainly in the majority.

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

Many of us did. What do you think it is?

What do you think you see?

What do you think links what you see?

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

The 2 definitely seems to have some significance. Before I go any further, have you finished the puzzles that begin with the letters and body part amulets?

[Sean (@TheGilded)Moderator]

There was some talk about both alchemy and astrology, but we didn’t really get anywhere.

We had mostly viewed the OOA symbol as 3 separate components: The Leo symbol, “O2”, and the anchor. I’m afraid I don’t understand alchemy all too much but I understand that the anchor means something, and the link between O2 and chemistry through oxygen could mean something.

What do you think that it means?
