on January 7th 2024 a strange video
surfaced online it's entitled weird
Minecraft bugs bug report number one the
clip was uploaded to a mysterious
Channel called the decade at first
things appear normal we're watching
Minecraft gameplay of a user named Sandy
carps 8 he's on a multiplayer server
with a friend named cargo ships they
discussed a recent Adventure did you see
when that spider dropped from the
ceiling and almost killed me L yeah that
was pretty funny we didn't really get
too much stuff though the players walked
through the forest and reached their
house deciding that they need to go
mining to get better equipment in the
basement they drop off their wood in the
storage room next they head towards the
mine cargo suggests going to y equals 11
to strip mine and the two work together
to dig their tunnel deeper after about a
minute their progress is halted when
they tunnel into lava Sandy suggests
they come back later and they return to the
the
house then something odd happens Sandy
and cargo suddenly find themselves back
in the forest initially it seems like
the video is looped but sy's chats
indicate that he has noticed it too what
why am I back here cargo's response is
rather odd LOL yeah that was pretty
funny we didn't really get too much
stuff though cargo doesn't address Sandy
at all it's almost as if he's talking to
someone that does doesn't exist and we
realize that cargo is repeating his
messages from earlier in the video Sandy
asks if cargo can hear him but there's
no reply we watch his cargo follows the
same path from before depositing his
items in the chest and heading into the
mine all the while he continues
repeating the chat messages from earlier
the screen briefly goes black then we
see cargo mining near the bottom this
isn't funny cargo you can stop now then
a sudden cut [Music]
what what happened to the mine entrance
[Music]
weird but things get even stranger when
the video shifts perspectives to a
different player they have a dark skin
and they're watching Sandy and cargo
from a
Hilltop if we rewind the footage we can
see it in the second Loop observing from afar
afar
this isn't the only difference between
the two halves of the video when Sandy
and cargo are teleported back to the
forest Sand's hot bar changes the staken
log swap places furthermore the interior
of the house is slightly different
there's no sign on the right hand chest
in the second Loop and if we look even
closer we'll find that cargo's messages
from the two Loops don't align in time
even though the text is identical we
don't yet understand the reason for
these discrepancies in fact we don't
understand much at all the video ends
with a final static shot of the house
deepening the Mysteries even
further this video was merely the entry
point into the long and winding mystery
of the [Music]
decade the following day another video
was released titled more weird stuff bug
report number two it begins with what
appears to be another loop the players
find themselves back in the forest now
Sandy has three experience levels
instead of two as cargo starts his
dialogue once more Sandy reacts with
escalating confusion this time he
doesn't follow cargo choosing instead to
walk in the opposite direction after a
few moments he encounters something
strange the edge of the world chunks are
not loading here there's nothing more
than an empty void this is similar to
the end of the first video with the
unloaded chunks near the mine entrance
it's almost as if sy's not supposed to
be here there's another detail that's
easy to miss a dark figure in the tree
while we can't quite make out their full
name it appears to end with an r as
Sandy returns to Cargo the Minecraft
music becomes increasingly distorted
Sandy descend into the mine but it's
different this time instead of a cave
with lava there's a long empty tunnel
after following it for a while Sandy
discovers a narrow side tunnel with
without torches the deeper he goes the
darker it gets accompanied by a
crescendos then we're back to the start
again for the fourth Loop of the series
it is now night time cargo is nowhere to
be seen and his messages are
conspicuously absent from the chat the
music is scrambled clashing with a
persistent wind noise as Sandy returns
to the house we notice a staircase of
blocks on top perhaps built by the
mysterious black figure who is now
standing in a lilac bush we can just
barely make out their name it's Voyer a
French noun meaning one who
sees inside the house cargo's bed and
chest are missing the basement also has
a slight difference there's no sign on
the bottom left chest intriguingly this
is the chest that cargo last used we saw
him open it in the second Loop it seems
that connections to Cargo are
disappearing one by one returning to the
mine Sandy becomes increasingly
distressed cargo I'm going going to save
you no matter what at the bottom a dark
fog obscures the tunnel depths as Sandy
progresses strange Black Blocks appear
on the edges their density increasing
the deeper sand he goes then an eerie
blue message appears I haven't talked to
him in days he hasn't played Minecraft
with me for so long I hope everything is
all right where is he where is he is
this Sandy speaking that doesn't quite
make sense to this point all of sy's
messages have been in the main chat
instead we're forced to consider the
possibility that this is somehow cargo
is Sandy missing from his perspective
also this video ends with a shot of the
house just like the first video this
time however the door is
open let's take a moment and attempt to
untangle What's Happening Here the
videos so far contain a sequence of
Loops they restart when Sandy is
teleported back to the forest however
each iteration is different sometimes
there are minor changes like a sign
being removed other times the changes
are major such as the tunnel in the mine
or cargo's disappearance it appears that
Sandy is supposed to follow a specific
path in the loop when he deviates too
much the chunks are not loaded the first
Loop seems to go according to plan with
no anomalies but each subsequent Loop
has one crucial difference Sandy knows
that he's in a loop we don't understand
why Sandy gains this awareness or why
cargo apparently doesn't but we do have
to wonder was the first video we saw
truly the first time this happened
or has this Loop been repeating for a
long time with the story picking up just
before Sandy breaks out of the cycle
it's intriguing that once the loop
breaks the world begins to Decay signs
disappear dark blocks are generated and
mysterious shadow figures arrive somehow
the stability of this place is damaged
breaking the loop clearly has a
significance that we don't fully
understand for now we will continue to
the third video entitled limbo before we
dive in let's take a brief look at the
description signals something is not
right he reached sentience this is not
supposed to happen this is not supposed
to happen what will I tell him is this
talking about Sandy who exactly wrote
this description the video begins with
the fifth Loop the world is daytime once
again but cargo is still missing the
blocks on top of the house are also gone
on the main floor there's a new painting
on the wall Sandy goes to the basement
and when he returns the picture is
changed it's difficult to tell what it
depicts maybe flowers we quickly find
the answer as Sandy explores away from
the house he approaches a very similar
cluster of lilacs overlooking the edge
of the world comparing the two we can
see that this is the same place as the
painting it's almost as if it's telling
Sandy where to go Sandy looks over the
edge and discovers something unexpected
invisible blocks in the void he begins
walking on them moving into the white
emptiness Beyond in the distance a dark
door becomes visible well guess I don't
have an option
Sandy opens it revealing swirling clouds
within as Sandy approaches the wind
swells maybe this was the source of it
the whole time the player enters the
doorway Sandy teleports to a completely
different place a realm of dark purple
blocks with distant clouds when Sandy
tries to chat he gets an error message
unauthorized access chat function
disabled due to lack of developer
permissions there's a similar warning at
the top this one instructing Sandy to
restart their game
this new place has many hallways with
entrances to other rooms each labeled
with a sign experiment followed by a
number Sandy enters the room for
experiment number
67812 36 in the center of the room
in he teleports back to his world but
from a different vantage point now he's
standing above his house on invisible
blocks below we witness something
bizarre Sandy and cargo are walking
around around discussing their need to
go mining this isn't a recording of the
first Loop because the timing is
different once again instead this
appears to be a different Loop
altogether we have no idea why there's a
copy of Sandy and why cargo is back
Sandy pushes a button in the sky and
he's returned to the purple place he
goes to a different room this one
corresponding to experiment 8923
00096 jumping in the pit he's warped to
another version of his world but this
one's just a bit off the usernames of
the players are slightly different Sandy
carps 26 instead of Sandy carps 8
cargo's name is also changed furthermore
the music has been transposed down a
major second increasing the uncanniness
the mine doesn't exist in this version
and the players talk about building a
castle Sandy comments in the chat also
Castle I remember building a castle
where's the castle was it never there
other experiments have much bigger
changes than this one Sandy returns to
limbo and warps to experiment 8 389 here
the sky is complex infused with pulsing
psychedelic patterns the music is
sweeping and full unlike any Minecraft
music we've heard before and yet the
landscape appears to be similar in shape
to the other worlds there are once again
two players below xoid and Serene Mist
this time though they noticed Sandy who
in the is this guy he's just flying
above our house Sandy tries to respond
but again he doesn't have permission to
use the chat the players decide to leave
Sandy returns to limbo when approaches
another experiment
1919 this one is ominously labeled
unstable he teleports to a dark empty
world with no players in sight when he
tries to leave the button is
unresponsive Sandy is apparently trapped
just before the video concludes there's
another message in chat from someone
named execo 4 who says uh-oh the video
ends with another static shot of the
world come to think of it what's the
deal with each video ending with an
image the first video's image has the
house in the second the door is open and
the image is darker then the house is
gone and the image is darker still we
don't really know what this
means the following video is called
meeting and it searched back in the main
world for the sixth Loop somehow Sandy
managed to escape the unstable World
Sandy returns to the world Edge and
walks into the void but this time the
door is gone he continues walking
nonetheless and suddenly finds himself
back in experiment
8389 he reaches the mainland after a few
moments Sandy approaches zyo and Serene
mist's house now he's able to chat the
players are bewildered as Sandy explains
that he just walked away from his house
and ended up here notably zyo and Serene
Miss don't remember Sandy even though
they saw him in the air during the last
video this is interesting it suggests
that perhaps these players are also in a
loop how else would they forget an
unknown player flying in their world
Sandy asks if he can stay to explore and
the players let him they generously give
him diamonds as he wanders Sandy sees
another dark figure in a lilac bush this
one named sightseer the skin is slightly
different from Voyer back in the house
Sandy opens a chest labeled plants
suddenly there's a static sound and the
screen goes black for a
moment when it returns there's a slight
difference the four poppies in Sand's
inventory have been replaced with four liac
liac
bushes then out of nowhere a message
appears in chat from someone named exeo 3
Sandy Sandy you have to stop you've
achieved something you should not have
achieved despite s's confused responses
execo 3 continues I got the signals from
you you are pushing the limits as Sandy
tries to interject exo3 mutes him
preventing his messages from sending
then exec continues why are you out of
everyone acting like this the fact you
can even talk to me right now fathoms me
Sandy tries to ask about cargo but exek
responds your friend is not coming back
Sandy he never even played with you then
limbo the video switches and we are now
viewing the world from their perspective
the skin is dark and the UI is different
with a number three above the hot bar
execo 3 walks through limbo when
approaches the door to the unstable
Dimension they jump in as they type a
pink cursor is visible the same design as
as
Sandy are you sure this is safe exeo 3
uses a command called TP down which
takes them to the surface there we find
execo 7 as well as another dark figure called
called
spectator I mean just in case you should
lock the world I don't want this to
reach Sandy exec 3 says that spectator
seems to be working fine and asks how to
lock the
world 07 replies with a command the ID
number is the same as the experiment
number 03 locks the world then he says something
something
notable he somehow became a thinking
mind which is very
interesting his memories got wiped
before we brought him to this world
that's very weird like I said close the
world just in case this could trigger
something in him if he joins and then
suddenly we see a message saying that an
unknown exec warped to this
world could this be s Cy the video
concludes with another static image of
the house it is returned but it's darker than
than
ever there's a lot to unpack in this
video first we are introduced to a
different group of people than the
regular players these are the execs they
have special capabilities they can use
teleportation commands and mute other
players we also learned that they're
associated with the dark watching
figures including Voyer sightseer and
spectator while we still don't know the
purpose of these dark figures the way
the exx talk and implies that they're
not players it would be weird to say
that a person seems to be working fine
instead there's some sort of automation
or bot what we do know is that these
execs are trying to deal with Sandy it's
clear that sand is doing things he's not
supposed to be able to do accessing
limbo when going to other players worlds
execo 3 says something interesting that
Sandy somehow became a thinking mind
well the deeper implications of that
statement aren't yet revealed it must be
why the XX are concerned but what about
the exper experiments what is the
purpose of these loops and what are the
execs trying to do we learn a bit more
in the following video called envoyer
This is French for sender the
description contains an enigmatic series
of 16 numbers this video is taken
entirely from the perspective of execo 9
who we haven't seen before they're in
some new place dark like limbo but made
of prismarine blocks they approach a
chest labeled nine and retrieve a book
from within as they continue down the
hallway we see several numbered rooms
apparently these each correspond to an
exec we see execo 2 in room 2 the player
walks until they reach number nine the
Block in the center appears to be a
terminal in fact if we look at the lines
as dots and dashes it spells out decayed
in Morse code exec 9 begins typing in
chat he's been lurking again he was
spotted in the unstable Dimension he
found out about the real house he knows
too much now we can't see who EXO 9 is
talking to their responses are invisible
whoever it is execo 9 says that they may
need to intervene the execs aren't
completely sure how to stop Sandy this
half of the conversation contains a
little detail o9 says that Sandy found
out about something called the real
house whatever this is exo9 believes
that it's too much knowledge for Sandy
to have this mystery about the real
house is something we'll want to keep in
mind as we
continue the following video is titled
real which is French for you guessed it
reality we return to sy's perspective
they're back in the main world for the
seventh Loop this time Sandy types the
teleport command to bring him to the
unstable world how Sandy knows this
command is unclear did he use slel or is
there something else going on regardless
the command works the console message
reveals that it was in fact Sandy who
teleported in the meeting video he
arrives at the bottom of the mine and
climbs the stairs spectator is still
there but exx 3 and 7 are gone he enters
the house to find that the basement is
totally different instead of humble
storage chests there's a door leading to
a complex network of rooms there's a
kitchen area several bathrooms bedrooms
and a bar in one room Sandy stumbles
across a red chest opening it reveals
that it has a name stored vessel
information inside are four written
books labeled June July August and
September these are diaries written by
someone named Matthew David the the
first entry is on June 2nd 2017 and
there are a total of 17 entries over the
4 months the early text starts out
normally Matthew writes about being busy
studying for a math exam which is
getting in the way of Minecraft we learn
that Matthew is 17 years old then
something weird there's a sudden jump
from June 4th 2017 to June 7th 2023 a
6-year leap into the future but Matthew
talks as if he's still in the past he
mentions stressing about being prepared
for his test my seriously on June 21st
we go back in time to
2017 it's not clear if Matthew made a
typo or if this journal has some weird nonlinearities
nonlinearities
regardless the exam goes pretty well
Matthew says that he wants to play
Survival multiplayer with a friend named
Andrew they decide to start up a server
that's the end of June Sandy makes a
comment this is way too familiar he then
begins reading the July book Matthew
starts by lamenting about how he's been
sick for a couple of days then there's
something intriguing ining I did see a
weird creature in my game today though
could just be me going crazy even though
me and Andrew are big fans of creepy
Posas we obviously know that those are
fake and that stuff like Herobrine
entity 404 and all that doesn't exist on
July 4th Matthew mentions a persistent
headache that's not improving he also
added a friend named Thomas to the
Minecraft server now three of them are
playing together then Matthew shares
more about the creature he saw it kind
of looked like a player but it just
doesn't make sense because we are
hosting this on Hamachi and I checked
Hamachi a few minutes ago and there's no
one other than us three yet he still
doubts what he saw actually what am I
even saying no shot there's another
player here that had to be something
else between Pages 9 and 10 there
appears to be some text cut out we're
currently working on an for all of us
since we need to get some good
enchants on July 10th Matthew mentions
that Andrew and Thomas have an idea to
build a town with a castle then there's
an update on the illness there's a
little problem though I'm not really
improving in terms of my health my head
really hurts and my hands are constantly
shaking and if this keeps getting worse
and worse I'll probably have to take a
little break from my computer I don't
know what's causing this exactly but I'm
afraid it might not be a flu anymore
it's been going on for way longer than
it usually should one week later on July
17th Matthew sees the player again he
seemed to have a white 03 on his head
while the rest of his skin is fully
black m Matthew has seen an exec in his
world a black skin with a white number
is their signature style but this is the
least of the issues things are getting
worse for Matthew's Health now weird red
spots are showing up on his skin Matthew
will be going to the doctor soon in the
meantime he continues to play with his
friends my friends have no idea what it
might be either which worries me because
they also started to become a bit sick
they're not in the same state as me but
they also have a small headache is this
a coincidence or is something going on
on July 22nd what the doctors have no
idea what this could be I'm scared my
friends are saying they feel the same
things I did two weeks ago apparently a
lot of teenagers across the world are
somehow catching this disease or
whatever the is I genuinely do not know
what's happening by this point Matthew's
been sick for over 3 weeks and his
Vitality continues to decline 4 days
later he says he barely has enough
energy to play on the computer after
playing for a few minutes and working on
a mob spawner Farm I saw him the 03 guy
he was just standing there staring at me
and he wasn't moving at all he sent no
messages in chat but I somehow felt him
speaking to me as if he was speaking to
me telepathically and that's when I
connected the dots this cannot be a
creepy pasta anymore he has to know
what's happening and he did this to me
this might sound insane but I think the
disease is being spread among our group
and the fact he just stares at me like
that he knows I immediately closed my
game and and shut the server down I have
to tell this to my friends this cannot
be a coincidence Sandy opens the August
book Matthew can no longer feel his
hands he has problems breathing and he
has the constant urge to vomit he says
that soon he won't be able to get out of
bed then something chilling my parents
are more worried than ever but something
inside of me tells me not to care about
not to talk to them to not listen to
them but I want to even though my body
refuses to Matthew's text is becoming
riddled with errors Extra Spaces missing
words misplaced punctuation he even
fails to properly sign his name his skin
grows pale except for the red spots his
mother cries fearing that Matthew is
near death as I'm writing this I feel an
Indescribable feeling flowing through my
body a mixture of emptiness sadness pain
loneliness Matthew's words grow even
more disordered bizarre and
incomprehensible beg farewell to
shattered bones bones that shape your
interior bones that make you who you are
bones like the water of a river flowing
towards Destiny it's pulling me it wants
me to reach it it wants me to get closer
to it I don't ever feel my interior
emptiness anymore I don't ever feel
anything anymore my keyboard is pulling
me closer to my monitor he's calling me
whoever he is in a matter of seconds you
just may find yourself falling twisting
into the abyss screaming wishing it
didn't end like this but the inevitable
things come and go as they choose and in
the end you will always lose so sit back
and relax as death swoops you down the
final entry is from September 13th
2017 and now forever I will make part of
it attempting to run from what I can't
escape I can never outrun it the limbo
I'll be stuck in is part of me now 1
hour 10 hours 10 days 10 years 10
decades 10 centuries 10 billions of
years forever I am part of it I am part
of it now I belong to it now and it was
decided like that from the
beginning these journals are deeply
unsettling we don't know who Matthew
David is whether he's a player we've
already met or someone new however there
are some similarities to s's story
playing on a multiplayer server and
encountering odd players in the world
notably execo 3 is the same exec who
talked to Sandy in the meeting video but
much more concerning is the fact that
Matthew has some sort of disease it
starts as a headache but worsens over
the course of about 10 weeks doctors
can't diagnose what's happening and the
text suggests that this is afflicting
other people as well Matthew believes
that this is connected to exeo 3 as time
passes Matthew's text becomes
increasingly poetic dark and jumbled he
describes a deep emptiness inside of him
and a feeling of being called towards
his computer monitor the final pages are
extremely cryptic it's unclear if
Matthew is alive or dead Sandy Returns
the books to the chest he turns around
around to see cargo standing in the room
hey man cargo how are you here I was
looking for you I don't think we should
be here something about cargo is off his
text is overly formal with punctuation
and capitalization a very different
style from his earlier messages Sandy
instinctively knows that something is
wrong this can't be cargo Sandy begins
to flee then cargo continues Sandy come
back we can talk about this as Sandy
runs into the mine we get one final
message you will regret this moment you
will always be the mistake known for ruining
everything the following video is from A
New Perspective someone with a reddish
skin and no number above the hot bar
when they type we learn that this is
someone named architect the conversation
is one-sided however the title of this
video is receptor French 4 receiver
could this be the other half of execo
9's conversation
watching the videos together the chat
messages align revealing the full
discussion we learned that the architect
is disappointed in the exacts to keep
Sandy out all they had to do was lock
the world ultimately architect tells the
execs to figure it out on their own
apparently there are 64 of them in total
architect walks away from the terminal
leaving execo 9 talking to the
void the description of this video
contains text that's almost readable
like a Markov chain of disperate
syllables There are 16 lines the same
number found in the envoyer description
H it turns out that this is a code by
counting out the indicated position of a
letter we can find the first character
repeating this for each line reveals the
message body lacking a soul although
this is enigmatic there's a subtle
connection to Matthew David's journals
as his disease progresses he describes a
feeling of becoming empty inside there's
another link as well the name of the
chest is stored vessel information a
vessel is a hollow container also empty
inside it's noteworthy that we've seen
times the following video returns to
execo 9's perspective picking up right
after their conversation with architect
another exec shows up this time it's
number 22 nine says that the architect
wants all of the execs to work on the
bugs relating to Sandy they say that
they need to shut down some of the
worlds EXO 9 opens up the terminal and
enters a numerical code the same as the
title of the book in their inventory
access is granted on the main menu nine
selects the players option this shows a
list of dyes each representing a
different player when the cursor hovers
over one it reveals more information
sy's location is undefined and his
capability is sentient zyo and Serene
Mist are both in the 8389 world and
their capability is thinking mind
finally there are many other players who
we haven't seen before all of whom have
their capability as vessels
hm vessel there's another connection to
that word most players on this list are
vessels marked with a gray icon
contrasting with the three color
players this suggests a progression in
capabilities from vessel to thinking
mind to sentient so how did Sandy
progress from vessel to thinking mind
the description offers a few Clues execo
3 found a critical flaw in the system of
the universe of the decade somehow
vessels when stimulated in some weird
way have the capability of escaping
keeping their supposed trajectories and
finding Oddities that they were not
supposed to find such as the map being
unfinished in certain areas invisible
platforms that allow teleportation
Between Worlds and a lot lot more in
other words we don't know for sure and
it seems like the exx don't know either
the description continues do you know
how Sandy managed to gain Consciousness
no I really don't definitely a flaw in
the system I make sure to wipe
everyone's memories before they entered
this universe and I'm not quite sure
what escaped their hands
but now we see that Sandy isn't just a
thinking mind he's been elevated to
sentients in fact it seems that the exx
were afraid of this happening in the
meeting video exeo 3 mentions that Sandy
has become a thinking mind they don't
want him in the unstable world because
it might trigger something within him
however Sandy does teleport there in
exeo 99's discussion with the architect
we learned that Sandy found out about
the real house and now knows too much
then in this video we see that Sandy is sentient
sentient
We Now understand that the real house
refers to the house in the unstable
world when Sandy found it something
promoted him from thinking mind to
sentient could it be the journals it's
been mentioned a few times that s's
memory has been wiped perhaps reading
Matthew's story somehow reminded him of
the past the specific details are still
a mystery the core point however is that
Sandy has steadily progressed along the
chain from vessel to thinking mind as
sentient and now other players are on
that path as well zho and Serene Miss
our thinking Minds they've escaped their
supposed trajectories Breaking Free of
the loop and it seems that this happens
when Sandy has a conversation with them
Sandy is spreading the ability to think
to others all of this represents a
problem for the exacts who are trying to
get the players under control back in
the video EXO 9 right clicks on the
three players icons reporting them to
the architect then 9 goes back to the
main menu and selects worlds then World
management the top block is the 1919
World the unstable one with the real
house the exec changes the join
permission from admin To None they
perform an attempted teleportation to
confirm the world has been locked in the
back exec 13 appears and asks if a N9
turned off access to the real housee
world nine confirms that they did then
they return to the terminal and choose a
different option Global cameras we see a
list of lilac items hovering over one
shows that this represents sightseer
currently in zyo's world and suddenly we
understand the purpose of these dark
figures their cameras into the
experiment the XX can see the camera
feed from the terminal as 09 starts
watching we see Serene Mist come up and
look at sightseer they stare for an
uncomfortably long [Music]
[Music]
time the audio is quite weird and fans
of my other ARG videos knows that this
means it's time to look at it in a
spectrogram this tool allows us to see
frequencies and sounds the x-axis
represents time and the Y AIS Is frequent
frequent
the higher the sounds pitch the higher
it is on the chart for example an
ascending major scale would appear as a
series of steps going [Music]
upwards looking at the camera audio we
discover a secret message hidden within
being in my bed unable to move I can't
get up I can't even blink everything
hurt the words feel similar to the text
in Matthew David's Journal although this
specific quote is no where to be found
could these be the words of serene Mist
instead execo 9 leaves the camera and
encounters execo 5 he asks what they're
supposed to be doing and nine says that
they're investigating Sandy when he
hears that' 05 says that he's got to go
and runs off the chat shows that he's
warped to the unstable world nine
returns to the terminal to find that the
teleportation permissions have reset
apparently execo 5 just changed it back
confused nine talks to exec 35 who says
that locking the real house world
doesn't work for them either then nine
follows 5 to the unstable World they run
to the house and enter the basement but
things are beginning to change blocks
are replaced with solid colors some
rooms completely consumed nine descends
into the big tunnel and then the narrow
one he finds exe5 taking Matthew David's
Diaries out of the chest destroying them
in a lava pit when he sees that nine is
there 05 punches him and flees back into
the tunnels after a few moments the chat
shows that five is Warped to an unre
recognized map the video cuts to a white
world with a table execo 5 walks up and
looks around this must be the
unrecognized map we don't know why but
apparently 05 is concerned that the
other execs are investigating
Sandy there is one more clue that I need
to mention the description contains a
question where is Cargo the response is
a jumbled mess of letters these are
encoded using a scheme known as base 64
upon decryption we can find the answer
to cargo's whereabouts
he is gone forever never to be seen
memory the next video is entitled
disposal and it returns to Sand's
perspective he finds himself falling
down a long shaft before landing on a
tree his friends are nowhere to be seen
Sandy explores this new place the layout
is large and confusing with many rooms
and barred Windows there are several
paintings scattered throughout a light
lilac a landscape a white World limbo
one is particularly notable it has a
painting of the real house and if we
look carefully the layout of the room
itself is similar to The house's
interior this includes the stairs to the
basement but this version overlooks the
void as Sandy continues to wander it
becomes apparent that this place
couldn't actually exist the space
doesn't operate logically this is
perhaps most noticeable when Sandy
enters a hallway that contains a juke
box Sandy takes the stairs and loops
around ending up at the Jukebox again
but that shouldn't be possible where's
the entrance that Sandy used this
looping path is what's known as non-
ukian normal geometric rules about space
and distance don't apply here suddenly
the Jukebox begins playing a song W by
C418 Sandy returns and punches it
causing the block to disappear this
action changes the configuration of the
room again instead of ascending stairs
to the right there are now descending
stairs going into a long tunnel s
follows it and ends up under the tree in
the main Courtyard he turns around when
he looks back the tunnel is
gone Sandy goes to the Redstone lamps
and switches the first off and the Third
on as he wanders more he ends up on the
other side of the wall but something's
wrong the lights are incorrect the
pattern doesn't match what it should on
the other end did someone flip the
switches Sandy walks towards the edge of
the following video picks up right here
Sandy continues to meander until he
finds a lever labeled emergency switch
as he contemplates what to do we hear
background Sandy quickly pulls a lever
Black suddenly sand is in the
unrecognized map we see execo 5 with the
table in the distance and we learned
something interesting I see you have
found the emergency switch I have a lot
to tell you Andrew sy's real name is
Andrew the same Andrew mentioned in
Matthew's Journal furthermore exeo 5
reveals that his name is Thomas another
player from the S&P this leaves just one
remaining player Matthew who must be
cargo the journal we read belonged to
Cargo who was the first to contract this
mysterious disease execo 5 or Thomas
gives us the most complete explanation
so far a few years ago there was some
weird sickness that appeared it infected
Matthew cargo and Andrew Sandy Thomas
says that people who are afflicted by
the illness are called vessels these
vessels are forced to play the same few
minutes over and over Sandy cargo Serene
Mist zyo all of them fall into this
category vessels aren't actually the
people with the sickness instead they're
kind of like ghosts who control the
lifeless bodies their Consciousness
scattered across different worlds loops
and vessels all exist in a Multiverse
called the concept exx are the ones who
manage it and Thomas was hired as one
the exx work for the architect who is
the creator of the worlds in the concept
the exx watch the experiments if a
vessel gains Consciousness they put a
camera in the world to monitor it this
is why Andrew or Sandy saw Voyer in his
world his growing Consciousness
triggered the exec to intervene when
exe9 saw that Andrew was sentient he
alerted the architect who teleported
Andrew to the disposal this is a place
where vessels who have become sentient
are sent to be removed moved however
Thomas anticipated this and opened the
door to the emergency switch allowing
Andrew to escape despite this
explanation some questions remain
unanswered what is the connection
between a physical human and a vessel in
Minecraft does the consciousness of the
person somehow get trapped within the
game Matthew's Journal seems to hint at
this he says something is pulling him
calling him and then later says that
he's a part of it now whatever it is in
some bizarre way the end result of the
physic IAL illness might mean getting
sucked into the concept the role of the
exx is somewhat unclear they focus on
preventing vessels from becoming
sentient but the reason for this isn't
obvious why is it better for vessels to
be trapped in their looping worlds it's
also a bit strange that the architect
constructed the worlds in which the
vessels are trapped Thomas says that a
symptom of the sickness is being forced
to replay the same few minutes over and
over again but how could this happen
without the architect creating the
worlds for the vessels to Loop could the
illness even exists without the concept
and this raises a crucial question if
the architect designed the looping
worlds did he also create the disease
where would vessels go if there was no
concept it's also worth mentioning that
each world in the Multiverse is labeled
as experiment that feels a little bit
more like these vessels were created
intentionally right now we don't have a
great answer to these questions Thomas's
story feels incomplete like we aren't
being told
everything regardless Thomas continues
telling Andrew what he needs to do if
you want Matthew back you need to go
back to your loop I will enable Matthew
to possess Voyer Voyer will be out of
order and replaced with Matthew's vessel
from there on out it's you you know how
to get out you know how to get to the
limbo that's the key place you can go to
get out you might need to find architect
he might seem intimidating at first but
he's really not if you could talk to him
you might be able to escape he's the one
who puts you in this situation so he can
take you out of it it's strange that
Thomas suggests that Matthew and Andrew
might need to talk to the architect
since the architect is upset that Andrew
is sentient however Andrew says that he
trusts Thomas he pushes a button and he
is teleported to the main world
everything seems to be back to normal
cargo's chest and bed have returned and
the basement is back in its original
state Andrew sees Voyer on the hill and
approaches him The Possession has
apparently worked Voyer now speaks as
Matthew he says that he knows Andrew and
that he remembers the house Andrew tells
him that the dark figures he saw in his
journal were real and that they're the
reason for all this Andrew has been
it but in the following video things
take a turn it's called a message to you
it's from architect and it's addressed
to us the viewers of this channel hello
this is architect speaking I'm sure you
know who I am viewer I seriously
discourage you from further watching the
content on this YouTube channel all
right that's it I guess thanks so much
for watching and I'll see you all in the
next video have a great
day n just kidding let's
continue everything you have seen so far
is a mere Act of fiction I don't know
who is in charge of uploading all of
these videos but I am unable to remove
the content from it this is not what the
concept is about these videos are
fabricated and their only intention is
to make you believe them to make it look
like I'm the bad person here keep that
in mind if you do want to continue
watching do not believe anything posted here
here
farewell this message forces us to
consider something we hadn't really
thought about who is uploading these
videos anyways let's poke around the
channel itself to look for Clues the
profile picture is a collage of a few
images put together one of which is
execo 5 in his world but there are other
things too such as a tree and a lilac
bush portions of the image have inverted
colors we we can fix this using the
power of editing nonetheless we can't
quite understand everything in this
image another place to look is the
channel description which contains a
poem of sorts doing and doing and doing
without a reason without a Consciousness
without a change without an end is there
ever a day we will see the end of the
tunnel or will we just remain watching
life walk right past
us in one sense this poem is probably
referring to vessels the players who are
traed and forced to replay the world
again and again but if we take a step
back it feels like this poem could be a
commentary on life itself we repeat our
routines over and over endlessly going
through the motions doing and doing and
doing and in this process there are
things missing without reason without
Consciousness without change without an
end these without suggest that there's a
void within us the unending monotony of
routine leads to emptiness inside the
poem concludes with a powerful question
will we ever be able to escape this Loop
can we fill the void by being conscious
by thinking and reasoning by changing or
will we continue doing and doing and
doing forever watching as life passes Us
by this poem is thought-provoking and it
opens the door to an idea that maybe
there's a deeper symbolism within this
series do these vessels somehow
represent us trapped within our own
Loops if this interpretation is correct
then who are the execs who manage the
loops when Matthew escapes and becomes
sentient the exx try to put him back
they would prefer it if he was looping
forever who wouldn't want us thinking for
for
ourselves despite these new possible
interpretations we still haven't quite
found who is uploading the content on
this channel however previous
descriptions do seem to suggest that
whoever it may be is active in the world
and is able to affect it he somehow
found his way out of his world I have to
talk to him but the uploader also talks
to us the viewer in the description of
the message video we find a simple
command keep
watching so that's what we'll do the
next video continues with Matthew and
Andrew showing Matthew's perspective as
Voyer the two are in limbo and Andrew
leads them to the 8389 World Sandy tells
cargo to use the TP down command though
it's again unclear how Sandy knows about
this on the surface they meet up with
Serene Mist she says that she doesn't
know where zyo is Andrew asks if seren
is aware of the execs but she says that
she isn't although Andrew tries to EXP
explain the situation Serene doesn't
understand nonetheless she does agree to
go with them to limbo they Tower up to
warp upon arrival the players realized
that Matthew now has his old username
cargo ships not Voyer his skin is
apparently half him and half Voyer
although this is not visible from the
first person perspective inre brings the
group to the unstable world and they
teleport the real house is even further
decayed with colored blocks spreading to
the exterior they notice a spectator
camera watching them but there's nothing
the players can do about it inside the
basement is missing furniture and lights
they descend into the tunnel heading to
the chest room but the Diaries are
missing destroyed by Thomas Andrew
reacts with confusion they decide to
head back up to the surface but when the
group reaches the basement Thomas is
there he says he's here to report on the
world status but it's an excuse to meet
up with the other players Thomas admits
to burning the Diaries but doesn't
explain why
instead he tells the group that they
need to return to limbo there's
something for you if you jump into the
void you'll appear in a different place
but it's odd no it's simply a back door
AR added in case you fell down he then
says something unusual once the players
get back they'll be able to see the
diaries for themselves Thomas teleports
the group to limbo once again they
approach the edge of the Void as they
debate who should jump first someone
the following video is entitled ABG gred
which is German for Abyss the
description includes a few German words
a quick Google search reveals that this
is an excerpt from a poem by Wilhelm
Bush a 19th century poet it is entitled
impending doom let's read a
translation the Flies are having a fun
Airy dance the Frog thinks cheer up
you'll come down soon enough the poem is
quite for boing so too Abron it's
extremely dark we'll notice that
Matthew's cursor is changed to a star
symbol the players wander around this
place for a few minutes encountering
arches and dilapidated structures after
a while Matthew talks for the first time
we've been walking for so long this
place freaks me out Andrew attempts to
reassure him don't worry we'll find it
eventually he wouldn't just send us here
to Die the players find another building
and enter it Matthew sees a doorway he
decides to go through it there's
something very strange on the other end
Void the next video is called loss of
control and it returns to the world of
the architect now we can see that
there's a red side and a blue side
there's a group of seven players sitting
around a table the blue side has founder
Creator shaper and instigator and the
red side has author inventor and
originator architect shows up late to
the red side and is promptly called out
by by originator you took your time the
purpose of this meeting is to discuss
issues in architect's worlds Creator
says that the anomalies were located in
his quadrant Architects says that he's
fully aware and is taking care of it but
author and founder disagree you don't
seem to be as aware as we'd hope founder
then says that they've received signals
from the abyss The Vessel you call Sandy
carps eight along with cargo ships and
Serene Mist all three were caught by one
of our exec the outcast architect
dismisses their concern turns the abyss
is a Barren Wasteland there's nothing
they can do but instigator says that
architect is wrong mentioning that
recent data shows that Sandy has been
separated now he's in a place called
grenzen This is German for borders
Creator says this means they're getting
closer what do you think happens when
they reach the last layer then author
turns up the heat on architect if you
don't send your workers to capture them
then well I'm sure you can figure that
last part out don't make us have to
interfere is what I'm trying to say
architect says he'll get them and leaves
this sequence is really interesting for
a few reasons first we learned that
architect works with people besides just
the exx he's not an all powerful being
instead he has to answer for his
failures and it seems like he's actually
pretty bad at his job during the
conversations it's repeatedly shown that
he doesn't really understand the
situation very well the others seem to
think that it's a much bigger deal than
he does we also learned that there are
both red and blue people here and
they're presumably on the same team
however their roles and purpose remain
unclear we now know that the place
Andrew ended up is called grenzen we see
it firsthand as the video continues now
back to Andrew's perspective he's in the
house the exterior is Pitch Black Andrew
enters the basement when he comes back
up he notices that there is now a castle
in the distance Andrew explores it for a
while on the outside edge there's a trap
door with a ladder leading down into the
Blackness as Andrew descends he cries
out where is it
Thomas I thought you were helping me
Thomas then the video
ends in The Following episode we
switched to the perspective of serene
and Matthew who have been waiting for
Andrew's return in the distance a figure
approaches their name is exek 111 and
they have white skin with black numbers
111 says that he doesn't work with them
ABG gr as you can probably tell imitates
the bottom of the ocean the abyss is a
layered Network it's beneath the
entirety of the concept then an astute
observation you've probably been through
a bunch of dialogue already I'm sure
you're quite tired of it that we have
exek 111 and that we are but we're not
done yet 111 says that Andrew probably
went to grenen which is the next layer
of the network it can be accessed in a
multitude of ways however the path your
friend took is incredibly risky there is
a SE for Route by going to the flat area
in the distance they can reach a main
location they'll know because there are
a bunch of towers scattered around the
Journey the following video is called
grenzen it picks up with the duo
seemingly close to their destination in
the distance they spot several dark
Towers each player explores one but both
come up empty they then head to a much
larger central tower inside is a hole
they debate if they should jump in and
decide that it's the only path they do a
countdown and take the leap the screen
goes to
Black and well that's it at least for
now this series is still ongoing I think
the Decay is unique and high quality and
I'm excited to see where it goes
normally at this point in the video I do
a deeper analysis but instead I will
wait for more episodes to release
hopefully I'll make an update once the
series progresses more if you enjoyed
this video subscribe it lets me know to
make more content similar to this and if
you would like to support me further
join as a deep diver Channel member the
link is below the video I want to give a
shout out to kunai who also covered this
channel they offer a different
perspective so check out their videos
and subscribe to them too we'll go ahead
and end with that this has been Retro
Gaming now and I'll see you all in the
