 		I think our connection with with with the base's email address is being underused. We're maybe supposed to talk with them to find more info about the story. I sent em' something a few days ago about Jenny's worsening state and got this. It doesn't add much we can use for the game, but incase anyone's interested.
Quote:
We got your message; unfortunately we were afraid something like this might happen. Without our systems in complete working order, we've been unable to seal off the breach that seems to be affecting Jennifer.

Your suspicions are correct. She's being influenced by the nightmares on this side. we had hoped by alerting her to her situation it would help her avoid them, but it seems that she's only become more susceptible to them. There may be others like her, but Jennifer is the only one we've had contact with that I know of. Three humans were wondering around the base earlier, but they seem to have vanished right before the nightmare attack began.

The Nightmares have been created inadvertantly by dream visitors whose negative emotions have taken root in the dreaming, growing into these dark creatures that seek to consume others. They have been known to consume and destroy other dream creatures; for a visitor to the dreaming, they could possibly tear apart the victim's psyche. If they're attempting to take control of Jennifer, then they may be looking for a way to escape into the inner realm. If that's the case...I honestly don't know what will happen if they succeed, but given that a nightmare's basic instinct is to feed and destroy, it can't be a good outcome.

Right now our station is being attacked - I need to get back to the field to help Urgo and the others. If I can, I will relay Jennifer's situation and see if anyone knows how to help. Rachel has been ordered to stay here and keep working on systems; the sooner we can get them operational, the sooner we'll be able to seal off the nightmare connection and keep the horde outside at bay. As for Jennifer, please keep an eye on her. And thank you for letting us know - we had been out of contact with her (presumably due to the nightmares causing problems for us whenever we tried); we had no idea things are getting this bad for her.

 		Sorry about the double post, but on the subject of the base email connection. I sent them an email not too far back about Jennifer being gone, and the nightmare possesing her. I also spoke about how it was weird the nightmare's were the one's giving us the Restricted Access codes. Finally I mentioned the "King" and "Queen" mentioned in one of her more recent posts.

PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM: Rachel


What?! Oh no no no - that's not good at all!


Most likely one of the nightmares from this side has finally crossed over and taken control of Jennifer. I'm referring this incident to my superiors - they are dealing with a horde of nightmares and demons attacking the base at the moment, but this incident is now a risk for both your realm and ours. This 'King' and 'Queen' I'm not sure about..maybe they'll know more.


It does seem odd that a nightmare would be helping with our code retrieval...maybe she's still in there? HQ station systems won't be completed until 11-19-10, but I'll see what I can do about bumping up our security and retrieval; maybe we can pull the nightmare back here, if anything of Jennifer's mind is still left. I really hope so.


Please keep us updated! This is frightening news.

 		It's time for the final stretch. I got in another email from the station


========================================
PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM: Rachel


Okay, I think I've finally gotten the security system figured out! The program is nearly complete, but we have two final codes missing. The diagnostic is telling me that the codes are somewhere within our past audio transmissions via the website portal - can you help me find them? I can't seem to access them from here....


Please pass this message along to anyone you think might be able to help. We're running out of time - the nightmares outside have started to push back our forces and are closing in on us, and it sounds like Jennifer doesn't have much time either. I estimate that we have at most 48 of your hours to bring the security program up to full power. If we can't find those two codes by then, there's a good chance we're going to be overrun. If that happens, not only will Jennifer be lost, but your realm will also be in danger.


Again - two 6-digit codes, hidden somewhere in our transmissions to you. Please help!


--Rachel

I reviewed the audio updates we got, but I didn't see anything except dates really. Hm.

Edit: I've submitted all the dates that were given.

 		Ooh, I didn't get the email
I think this may be one from track 3/5.

 		In response to my last post:

YES! The system's accepted the code. Just need one more to get our security system up and running again!

No idea. My first thought was the dates as well, but thought that would be a bit too random since we wouldn't know which ones.
If we're only using what's on the site, I was thinking maybe we need to combine different numbers from each transmissions, but I didn't get of anything close to 6 numbers.
We have 20, 40, 75, 90 for percentages, of course that's way to many digits.
"72483" is the number of programs recovered by 3/5. Missing a digit.
"...agents with 7 or more successful..." from 5/5. only one digit.
Those are the only numbers plainly stated in the audio. Anyone think of something more subtly hidden?

 		On a hunch I added 0 to the beginning the 5 digit code and sent in: 072483.

PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM: Rachel

That's it, that's the code we needed!  THANK YOU!  

Our security system is working again; the nightmares here are being dispelled from the facility and back where they belong!  Our forces are moving out to recapture and secure them, as well as the three who have been leading this attack.  Once things have calmed down no doubt we'll be preparing for another attack just in case, but by then we should have all systems repaired and running smoothly again.  

The one that had possessed Jennifer has been pulled back as well - we can monitor her again.  She's okay for now, but unconscious...you'll have to see when she wakes up.  Her subconscious retreated to the back of her mind when the nightmare took over, probably in an attempt to save itself.  It'll be a little while before she wakes up, but hopefully within 24 hours.  Now our only worry is how much of her is still left.

We are in your debt - we would have been overrun without your help.  Thank you so, so much.

--Rachel

So I don't know if something's going to happen tomorrow, or if it will just be an endgame.
What is "Wait one moment" referring to?

 		I was on the same track as you was the thing.
I was messing with the 5 digit one trying to add the one.

I guess that's the end of this. I'm sure we'll see something on the 19th. Since the 48 hours expired right before it.
