Speaker 1: The audiophile you are about to access is a digital
recovery from the final transmissions of the Arc of Knowledge expedition.
To date, the whereabouts of Professor Oscar Jerome and his
team remain unknown. We are presenting these recordings as they
were found, unaltered. As the archivist of these tapes, I
feel a responsibility to warn you. This is not a
simple story of discovery. It is a raw document of
survival and descent. The events within are intense and may
be deeply unsettling. Listener discretion is strongly advised. This recording
contains moments of extreme peril.
Speaker 2: Dog.
Speaker 3: So as.
Speaker 1: The sound of a dying world, claustrophobia and life threatening situations.
Significant psychological distress, including depictions of panic attacks, paranoia, and
immersive auditory hallucinations designed to disorient, sudden loud noises, jarring soundscapes,
and creature related horror. Themes of existential dread, and the
blurring line between perception and reality. This is their unfiltered
testimony what they found deep within the earth change that
it may change you to proceed with caution.
Speaker 2: As the ancient signal is discovered that comes to a
head and moved, and the myth of a gaza and
the promise of a dangerous journey.
Speaker 4: And you are alive to the archivesa heads up. Dr
Thornstein's prepping for final systems.
Speaker 5: Check in the main lab.
Speaker 6: Every hum, every tremor, every breath. This isn't just research,
It's history in the making and history My dear boy
is best captured raw.
Speaker 4: Got it raw and unfiltered, just like the Internet.
Speaker 7: Professor Jerome Miles, thank you for coming. I know the
surface is demanding your attention.
Speaker 5: Doctor Thornton. Always another city swallowed? Did the last of
the deep sea thrum events finally collapse? We're running at
a time airis.
Speaker 8: Miles, Are you okay?
Speaker 2: You look hunted.
Speaker 8: The news from the surface is relentless.
Speaker 5: I know.
Speaker 2: I saw the reports from the Pacific Rim this morning.
Speaker 8: Another million displaced. It's a slow, agonizing bleed.
Speaker 5: Haunted is one word for it, Lena. It's like watching
a slow motion apotalypse. Every day, another piece of the
world I knew just vanishes. And we're down here chasing
a myth.
Speaker 6: A myth Miles that holds the key to our survival.
We're not running from the surface, we are fighting for
its future. This facility the arc of knowledge represents humanity's
the last desperate gamble.
Speaker 9: Listen to that.
Speaker 7: We found one thing, Wren, Professor Miles.
Speaker 10: You won't believe this. I was running a deep skin,
I'll goliverithm on a global grid functuations, looking for well anything,
and I found it. Not a glitch, a signal.
Speaker 3: What what was that?
Speaker 5: It's definitely not natural. It almost feels.
Speaker 6: Wrong, wrong, Miles, or simply unfamiliar. Wren. Amplify the signature.
Let's hear its song.
Speaker 10: It's it's responding to the amplification. It's it's getting stronger.
Speaker 9: It's a map.
Speaker 7: Miles renterested to a geological hot zone. Discovered fissure beneath
this very facility.
Speaker 3: A fissier here. We've drilled for years. The entire cota
is a geological.
Speaker 7: Too, precisely, but this signal, it's emanating from within it.
Speaker 9: And it's not just a signal.
Speaker 7: It's a blueprint to something profound, something that could save.
Speaker 6: Us, a blueprint, a blueprint to Agartha, the lost network,
the true heart of the Earth. My research has hinted
at this for years, A stable ancient ecosystem, not molten rock,
something living for centuries, Agartha has been dismissed as a myth,
a fantasy, tales of an immense, legendary kingdom located upon
the inner surface of the Earth, sometimes involving a king
of the world. It's been a popular subject in occultism
since the late nineteenth century. Many traditions speak of hidden
worlds beneath our feet, places like the fabled city beneath
Mount Chasta, said to be inhabited by advanced beings descendants
of Lumeria, who took refuge after the cataclysm. But those
are surface legends, tied to a specific location, often with
a thin veil of secrecy. This this is different. Antarctica,
the last untouched continent, a place of ice and mystery,
where even the most powerful surface governments, the good Old
USA including, can't truly touch you. It's like a Swiss
bank account for secrets, impenetral, beyond their reach nor eyes,
no hidden agendas, but our own. This is where the
true of Gartha lies. Not a fantasy, not a spiritual plane,
but a physical, living network of subterranean cities waiting, and
we are the.
Speaker 3: Ones to find it.
Speaker 4: Professor. On that note, the final payment transfers you wanted
them initiated for the sent just you know, for the.
Speaker 6: Record, Yes, Preston. Now, why are every member of this
team they're full agreed upon compensation. Consider it a bonus
for their courage, and just in case we don't come back,
I want them to know their families are taken care
of a small token for their immense risk.
Speaker 4: Confirm uncomplete initiating transfers confirmed, All payments are processed, Funds.
Speaker 8: Delivered, Professor Jerome, Doctor Matthew. My role here is to
assess the psychological impact of this mission. The data, while compelling,
presents significant unknowns. The isolation, the pressure, it will be immense.
The human mind is fragile.
Speaker 5: Doctor Petrova, I didn't realize you'd be joining.
Speaker 8: US standard protocol for high risk, high stress expeditions.
Speaker 11: Mind.
Speaker 8: Job here is to keep you all sang or at
least to document the descent into whatever this becomes.
Speaker 7: I need you, Miles, your geological expertise, your intuition. You're
the only one who can fully interpret what we might
find out here.
Speaker 12: Oh Kai, Doctor Thorne, Miles, Ren Lena, professor ready when
you are Equipment's prepped, logistics confirmed, no margin for error.
Speaker 6: Kai, my friend your precision is legendary. Preston in sure,
Kai's colms are triple redundant. You can't afford any technical difficulties.
Speaker 4: Down there on a professor running diagnostics. Now everything's green.
Speaker 3: Show me the abyss.
Speaker 6: The team is assembled, a collection of the brightest, the bravest,
and perhaps the most desperate. Each carries their own burdens,
their own hopes. Miles is quiet anxiety, a brilliant mind
wrestling with a dying world. Aries, a force of nature
driven by a scientific hunger that borders on obsession. Kai
the stoic protector, a man of few words but whose
presence speaks volumes. Wren the digital native, whose fingers dance
across the fabric of reality, pulling back the veil. Preston,
my assistant, who I couldn't do anything without. And Lena,
the quiet observer, tasked with charting the descents not just
into the Earth, but into the human psyche itself. And
then there's me, the one who believes that within the
deepest darkness lies the greatest light, or perhaps.
Speaker 3: The greatest truth. Professor, are you are you truly benef us?
Speaker 5: The verus?
Speaker 3: They're astronautical.
Speaker 6: Miles look around the surface, is a slow, agonizing death.
What is risk when the alternative is certain oblivion? This
isn't just about discovery for my book or my show.
This is a chance, a desperate, beautiful chance. And I
wouldn't want to embark on this with anyone else. Your intuition,
your sensitivity. It's not a weakness, sis, it's a compass.
It will guide us where pure logic cannot a compass.
Speaker 12: All right, all right, team entry point confirmed thermal scans
show a stable fisher. Professor, Doctor Thorne Wrenn, you're on
primary comms and data. Miles Lena Preston, you're with me,
standard repel sequence, no heroics.
Speaker 7: Keep an eye on the energy signature, wren Any fluctuations
you alert me immediately.
Speaker 10: Copy that I've got his direct feet. This signal. It's
unlike anything I've ever seen. It's almost sentient.
Speaker 4: Professor recording any pre descent thoughts for the audience.
Speaker 6: The air here at the threshold of the unknown is electric,
a raw, primal energy. We stand at the precipice of
a new frontier, not in the stars, but beneath our
very feet. This fissure hidden for millennia, beneath the ice,
is not merely a crack in the earth. It is
a gateway, a promise, and a profound challenge to every
baby thought. When you the ice itself seems to hum
with antissa, Pa, here the.
Speaker 3: Go into the park.
Speaker 8: H miles. Your heart reads elevated, Remember breathing exercises. Focus
on the rock.
Speaker 5: Easy for you to say, Lena, You're not dangling into
the earth escaping ma.
Speaker 4: It's definitely down here like ancient. My phone's already losing signal,
which is probably a good thing.
Speaker 6: Let's doomsmore.
Speaker 3: Preston.
Speaker 6: Sometimes discovery requires disconnecting from the superfission.
Speaker 7: Ye hold secure readings are stable, air quality surprisingly good.
Speaker 9: Miles, what do you see? Describe it?
Speaker 5: It's it's not just a fissure. It's a tunnel, smooth almost.
Speaker 3: Machines.
Speaker 5: The bessil columns, they're they're too perfect, like Mames. The
earth spins.
Speaker 6: The architecture of the deep Earth not carved by water
or wind, but by something else, something ancient, intelligent. The
very rock itself seems to pulse with a hidden energy,
a silent testament to a civilization lost to the surface world,
yet thriving in the dark.
Speaker 3: This is not merely geology.
Speaker 6: It is archaeology, and it's it's an unplanetary scale.
Speaker 10: No, it's it's fluctuating wildly, like a heartbeat. But it's
not just energy. There's there's data corrupted, glitching.
Speaker 13: It's it's responding, responding, just as I feared, Cavid Grace,
get to cover, losing my grips the rock.
Speaker 3: The rock is crumbling, the rope's hearing written.
Speaker 9: What's happening? Is it the signal?
Speaker 7: Is it attacking us?
Speaker 10: It's reacting, the signal is pausing it. It's like the
mountain is alive, it's breathing.
Speaker 6: The earth itself is is a living entity. It's responding
to our intrusion. Preston, are you getting this?
Speaker 4: Recordings, destruction and intensive it's all ruling.
Speaker 1: I can't hold a boy.
Speaker 3: Miles grabbed my hand. Now I can't. I care hole,
don't let go.
Speaker 9: He's Thank God, status report everyone. He's still in one piece.
Speaker 6: A near catastrophe. The mountain, it seems, has teeth and
it bit But we held Miles over. The anxious one
found a lifeline in Kai's unwavering, a testament to human
resilience even in the force of geological fury.
Speaker 3: This is the price of discovery. The Earth does not
yield its secrets easily.
Speaker 6: What was that?
Speaker 5: It wasn't just a cavan. He felt sentient, like it
knew we were here.
Speaker 3: Oh, we're secure for now.
Speaker 9: It seems the Earth isn't just listening.
Speaker 6: It's fighting back, and we, my friends, are just getting started.
Speaker 14: They call it the greed. The client surface is a
diing ember. Jason is a desperate fair in the city.
I barely remember the precious building in my head with
every million displays. We're down here scraping at the storm
of the world of his arranged.
Speaker 15: And they see the golden seat, a blue princess save
as But I just here standing the whispers way for
us too far. This isn't home, mister denial, the desperate
final ware.
Speaker 3: A gem for the future.
Speaker 15: That's sorry, God footing, which, as the Askuta stat advise, bah,
let's see a set fast mountains that he just tract.
Speaker 3: Show a sensing.
Speaker 15: Are you wanting to chain buttify for the mountain?
Speaker 10: Say?
Speaker 15: And it's a song of maladness.
Speaker 11: A song of page, justin a machine touch on the
nation page, the service politics, the hidden hand.
Speaker 14: They send us down to find the future in a
borrow berried Land, the man in power, water kingdom on
the order to control old.
Speaker 5: But how do you rule the very earthy when it's just.
Speaker 3: Eating your soul?
Speaker 15: They say, a madness the golden sat a blue friend
to save a soul. I'm not just talstatic, the whispers
waiting for us to fall.
Speaker 2: Listening help, It is just denial.
Speaker 15: The test, peren final fare.
Speaker 16: Again be for future.
Speaker 3: That song God floating in.
Speaker 15: And I say, it's got test and advice back.
Speaker 14: It's feeding on our fair and it's felt tonight.
Speaker 6: Just track.
Speaker 15: Jill a sasher, you are a jesting but eye or
it's the mountain saying, and it's a song of madness,
a song of WHI justin a sake, stuck a.
Speaker 3: Sent page.
Speaker 16: In the belly of the beast, with the world on
its last breath, we found a fragile truth just past
the edge of death, a different kind of strength and
shared vulnerability, a human life, a counterpoint to the chaos
of the sea. This saint for glory, not the fame,
just a gas by.
Speaker 14: A final, fragile, desperate act in the heard of dispence.
Speaker 9: So you cannot come promise.
Speaker 15: Your future, go to stop us see through the sea fool,
the greatest safe from the well the sis. It shut
stop place, It's almost shake.
Speaker 9: Go look at it for she
Speaker 7: Just watching a saw
