January 21st, 2021. 5AM. Private Jameson Little walked up to the entrance of the Illuminati Haven. He held his stomach as he approached, and paused when the entry guard held up his palm. "Jamie? Your shift isn’t over for another two hours." The gate guard’s face was cloaked, so determining his identity shouldn’t have been…
January 21st, 2021. 4AM. Normally, it would take the group of demons over half a day to make their way back north to the Illuminati’s base. However, thanks to Belial and Lucifer’s contacts, they were able to arrange a direct Warper teleportation array into the woodlands only fifty or so miles from the Illuminati’s Haven….
January 20th, 2021. 9PM. A full day passed, plus several extra hours. Belial, Bael, and Murmur had to use several secret demon transfer locations to meet up with Warpers hiding among the humans. By doing so, they were able to jump around the USA until they finally arrived in northern California, nearly a thousand kilometers…
January 19th, 2021. 8AM. Portland, Oregon. The receptionist at Cryotek, Leeta, sat down to type up a manifest report on all the visitors from the day before.

January 15th, 2021. Midnight. Moscow, Russia. While Jason and Hideki went on a sort of spiritual father-son journey, a young woman silently materialized on the southwestern outskirts of Moscow, far out in the countryside several kilometers from the city center.

January 16th, 2021. Noon. Illuminati Haven. Three hours passed. Claire sat in her wheelchair, and Victoria remained standing, shifting the weight of her feet around as her progressively more pained feet cried out, begging for a reprieve. She couldn’t help but direct sneaky looks of jealousy to her cousin, who didn’t have to suffer the…
January 16th, 2021. 9AM. Illuminati Haven. Jason walked with both of the Rothschild descendants beside him, Claire rolling in her wheelchair on his left, and Victoria on his right. They traveled down into the Illuminati’s underground bunker, and when they reached the elevator that would take them to the bottom level, after they stepped inside…
January 16th, 2021. 8AM. Illuminati Haven. Claire Rothschild sat in front of a series of computer monitors, gazing with cold eyes at recordings of a major event from two days previous. In those recordings, a mysterious masked figure casually knocked out a few security guards, walked into the base, strolled past every possible obstruction in…
January 15th, 2021. 1PM. Boise National Forest, Idaho. Jason followed his father, Hideki. The two of them traveled over to the entrance leading into the underground mountain that would someday become Marie Becker’s Remnant Oasis. Jason chuckled quietly to himself, knowing humanity’s future safehouse was a metaphorical stone’s throw from where he grew up. Life…
January 15th, 2021. Noon. New York City. While Jason and his newly rediscovered family reunited with one another, elsewhere on the complete opposite side of the United States, a man in his 60’s climbed out of his car in front of a large skyscraper deep in the Manhattan District.
