 		I've checked blogspot repeatedly with no luck. Either I'm over thinking this and it's something so easy I might smack myself or it's just that difficult to find.

Damn good work!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
And Then There Were None
Sad

What have I done?

All I did was fulfill orders, nothing more. That was one of the first assignments Dr. Darrell ever gave to me at the Institute... "send these," he said. "You'll know when."

A rush of letters to my inbox, all with the subject heading "4" showed me that it was time. This had to be what he meant.

The envelopes were already sealed. All I had to do was address them. So, I did.

What do I get out of it?

Well here I am now. I guess I got too close to thee divine truth.

Things at the Institute were never really stable. I joined at likely the most chaotic time. Things were going up in smoke, literally. My job was to protect the Institute from any negative press. And I believe I did that quite well.

And now I'm regretting it. Regretting ignoring the warning signs that innumerable people sent me, warning against everything surrounding the Institute.

But I lied. I lied to them. Almost every single correspondence I created was a lie.

I wasn't protecting the Institute. No, I was destroying the public and everything I believed in. I was just creating a mountain of lies that the Institute could always use to fall back on... and explanation for every unexplainable thing.

It was an art, I suppose.

And something for which I will never forgive myself.

Watch out for the Institute. I've seen its face beneath it's neat, tidy, modern facade. It's a terrible one.

I deleted my other posts praising the Institute. I have no faith in them any longer.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Dr. Darrell could be William Darrell, or if we go with the Matthew is his brother bit, it could be from Matthew???

 		Doh! Nice work. I feel like a moron now. Razz

So I bet we can get some excellent inside info on the Institute's shady past through Christine who seems to be quite the disgruntled former employee.

 		Since she was just fired, how about asking her for the "Special Projects - Level 1 access only" password? They might not have changed it yet.

Awesome! I'm hoping we can form a resistance with Christine and Matthew, so I pointed her that way. Hope I don't get banninated from the Institute.

Cute way of handwaving over the fact that this is a first post.

 		Magic,
If you create the link to the puzzles page (because I don't know how), I'll start putting in all the puzzles and passwords up until now. Just need the page there so I can edit it.
