 		Hero and I talked a while about how something else is fucking with his channel. I won't post the all the PM's, as a lot of it isn't that important, but he came to a rather interesting conclusion:

Quote:
Re:answers
I'm sorry I had to go and break character, but things are getting out of hand. If it's any consolation, when all of this is done, like the boneman stops talking to me and the skinman leaves, I will try my best to continue The Riddle of the Tree Man. Sure it won't be as realistic, but I have a whole story planned out, why let it go to waste.

The first time I interacted with it was on the night "Up She Rises" and "://MISSION_COMPLETE" were filmed. My brother and I stumbled upon it in a clearing over in the park. What happened after that is really hard to understand, but I think we thought it was a statue and touched it or something. The way I remember it is as if I was watching myself. It's really weird. But as soon as we touched it, everything just stopped. My brother was gone, and I was in the car driving home. I know it killed him, don't know how, and for some reason I don't care. My mind is just perfectly fine with my brother being dead.

I just don't know anymore. If there are infact three monsters, then one of them can use the computer. I'm going to have to say that I might be the third monster. Thinking hard about it, I can remember making the 128 video, but the same way I remember encountering the Skinman. It's like I was watching myself. It hurts to think about and I feel like I'm getting sick just doing so. I'll post a video on it after "answers" uploads in about 30 minutes.


So yeah. This thing is fucking with him pretty badly. Maybe I was right all along, maybe this thing is making him have multiple personalities...All this is making me kind of sad to be honest. I mean, the skinman has such a psychological impact that Hero doesn't even miss his own brother Sad

Also, here is Answers, which I never thought we'd actually see:



YouTube: Link

Essentially, the boneman, which I think is what Hero called him, is not supposed to be at the end of that video. It was originally supposed to be a sign that said "what is real."

He also posted another video attempting to explain what happened throughout the movie.



YouTube: Link

EDIT: Oh boy, more unscrambling...here is the about part as of now:
Quote:

|X|
My name is H|E|ro, and I am 18 years of age. |Z| Over the past few weeks, since my mother's death Christmas morning, I have |B|ecome more and more interested in my birthmark (the one with high contrast in my chann|E|l picture). Now, I say it's my bir|T|hmark because I've had it as long as I can remember, but it does not seem like a natural occurrence. The reason my interest has sparked is that my mother was the last of my living relatives, and the only one I would ever ask about my mark. While s|H|e would always answer, her answer would be accompanied with a blank stare into nothingness and a frozen body. It's the answer that has now become the goal of my life, and this channel, a riddle I hope to solve, soon.
" You will know its mark when the Tree Man comes".


in order, this spells xezbeth. A quick google search comes up with the wikipedia that says this:

Quote:
In demonology, Xezbeth (alternately Shezbeth) is a demon of lies and legends, who invents untrue tales. Its name in Arabic is Al-Kathab, or "The Liar".
According to French occultist Collin de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal (1853), it is impossible to count the number of its disciples.[1]


Hmm...lies, untrue tales, the "liar"...all very interesting.

 		New video, originally only for me (creator said he put too much work into it, and it is now his second favorite video, so I assume he wants me to post it here)



YouTube: Link

Also, something really interesting from the creator about Xezbeth. I'll put it in spoilers because it frankly is very revealing about the future of the series.

Quote:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Since Xezbeth has been discovered, I should probably mention what he does. Think of him like the Rake. He's just kind of a monster wandering around the same place Slenderman is because why the f*ck not?. However, he has this one power that is almost immersion breaking. It's the basically the God Demon of lies. So, what better way to god lies then to... make them true...

With that said, don't be sad the M.E.E.C or Tree Man or Conway are basically lies, because, well you can read and apply what I just said.


Awww shit, if this is what I think it means...

By the way, this is from the Slendernation thread, which actually has some very important posts from the creator. Also

Quote:
:DYour immersion can get crushed like a betle under a shoe:DD


A quote from Tails.

Very HappyVery Happy

Also, here is some insight on Hero

Quote:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Lying is a bad thing. I don't condone it, although I play a character who lies and is not very trust worthy. I should point that out. NEVER trust Hero unless you have seen proof he is telling the truth. That will be vitally important over the next few episodes.

I want to believe though D: He said his own updates could be lies, so maybe it isn't true (although it would be AWESOME) if it was.

 		Sleep cam video.



YouTube: Link

Here is what it told him, according to Hero:

Quote:
Re:Sleep footage?
It said 5 things.

" I can make them real"

"You are marked"

"Lies will get you nowhere"

"He's not in a better place"

"Hell burns hot for those who kindle the flames"



after that I woke up with my covers off the bed, freezing. My three sleep cams were set up, but the grain and light needed to show anything really screwed with the quality. You can still see it, sure as hell, hunched over and pulling my covers away.


I think I was right about his movie becoming reality. Also, I mentioned that the mark might have to do with his mark in the movie

Also, I think he is going to meet with someone who knows something about demons:

Quote:
Re:Sleep footage?
So I looked up Xezbeth for the hell of it and found out it's some kind of demon based around lying and lies. It has an uncountable number of disciples, and there happens to be an expert (basement dweller) on demons and pagany stuff in my town. I'll see if I can contact him for further information.

It appears I have indeed acquired my own mark. Well, this fucking sucks. It's making me into my own character. Wow.

The only thing I "lied" about was not telling you all this was part of a movie, that really isn't that bad, I mean, is it?

Sounds like cryptic bullshit to me. Poetic, cryptic, bullshit.


Movie mark thing confirmed.

Subject Contained
I feel an emptiness. Like, a lapse of time went through me from yesterday to today. We all have it. I'm not sure what it means, but Hero is safe. He's in his house and we have contained the skinman so all threats so far have been avoided. I think we finally got the job done. We still have monitoring duty though, but have taken control of Hero's email again


_U_C

shiiiit

Guess I was right. We'll see where this goes, although talking to Hero was very interesting. His perspective is one of complete terror while Conway's is more calm.

 		Two new videos.



YouTube: Link

This one isn't as important as the next, but introduces the next monster. I am beginning to think there are more than three.



[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wY1-yKGouQ[/youtube]

Now, you all know who this is, I think. This is the reason I don't think this is the last one we're going to see. This is from the creator by the way:


Quote:
Xezbeth is my second and a half favorite character plotted for the series. The third one has shown up in another series, but it's obscure. You'll find that series listed on unfiction with one or two replies... BUT ILL NEVER TELL


Now, obviously the rake is not obscure. I'm sure the creator knows about Everymanhybrid and WhisperedFaith, so if this is the third monster, his hint didn't make a whole lot of sense...

Also, proof it IS the Rake (also from creator):

Quote:
Man there were so many leaves outside. Wow, Hero really should get one of those things to, you know, get them all into a pile? What are those called again? They are usually for leaves. Start with an R I think????


Not to mention some plot stuff going on here.

Xezbeth has essentially put Hero into a movie that Hero plots. Now I doubt Hero can just plot his way out of it easily. This is why Hero actually NEEDS to find the journal now. Not to enter a psychological season or whatever, but to look at what he had plotted in the past.

He can avoid what he knows what will happen though, which is why he went outside. If he had been in the house, the 000000000009 encounter would have happened, and he'd be locked in a closet for three days, and be forced to drink sap piss to stay alive. Not easy when it's actually happening...

 		SEASON 1 FINALE
SEASON: FICTION, FINALE IS HERE!



YouTube: Link

We FINALLY get the villain hinted at! He was actually in another series, EyeAreHappy. Or something like that, I am not familiar with the series.

And that is where I recognized the spades thing from.

According to creator, it will be about a month hiatus. I guess everything is pretty short winded in this series. Oh well, guess I won't be spamming this thread everyday for the next month at least <3

Look forward to Season Two: Reality, where Hero needs to fucking find that journal already!

 		Here is a very interesting post from the Conway channel...

Quote:
Operation "XEZBETH" was an utter failure.
Goddamn Spades had to jump in and ruin absolutely everything


Huh.

So I guess we didn't even need Xezbeth to make it real.

There were also some pretty irrelevant videos uploaded to the Conway channel.





YouTube: Link



YouTube: Link

Don't know what to make of them at this point.

I guess we know why season two is called "reality," now.

 		Yeah, he always has some little thing on his jackets. In "Up She Rises," he has a House of Paradox symbol on his Jacket, which was the creator's previous series.

So Spades shows up again...Also, I think that second one that shows up has to be Jester. It'll be interesting to see how his livestream turns out.


Also, I'm not sure if I posted the channel, but Jester uploaded his first video to his own channel.

"Lol."

Poor Alex D:


I'm also wondering how Alex can exist, given that in the plot Hero lives in, Alex is not real. Might lead to something.
