Continuing reading 759 of the truth. A brief interruption first. Calling all other Bakerite chapters. I fear Celestia is losing integrity too. Less decay than some of you are reporting, but it’s detectable. If we need to make our move before… something happens, I’m going to have to be the one to do it. Think of me. I don’t think reality tunnels will do any good, but… I will feel better if I know you are. I’ll beam you all the information I have about the decay. There may be some method to hold it off yet. We’ve lasted so far… however long that is.

Finally, in episode six out of seven, we meet our secret protagonist. Not the narrator of the podcast, but - as we’ll find out in the next episode for certain - the person who set the events of the resistance against slurry into motion.

Continuing reading 759 of the truth. This is a hopeful story, I think. Hang on to the hope you’ve got.

This one is pretty self-explanatory. I’m not totally pleased with it, it kinda feels like a clip show. It’s mainly an exposition dump. It does help contextualize a lot of the show up until this point though! So that’s nice at least.

Continuing reading 759 of the truth. Try to forget what is known. Something else is knowing it for you. There is a reason it has to be this way. Telling you outright… you’d never believe it. If you are waking up, or you’re in-between… I’m sorry. This is no world to be awake in. Find a safe place if you can. They do exist. You can clear your mind there. If you can’t find one… act natural and keep looking.

Mormonism, more properly the LDS Church, is one of the weirdest religions to achieve something like world religion status other than Scientology. It’s a homegrown American movement that claims an entire alternate history for the American continents, erasing the lived and living history of the Indigenous peoples of this part of the world and replacing it with a kind of fanfiction where peoples from the Bible simply shifted locations and continued on from where the good book left them. It was also founded about ten minutes from my hometown.

Continuing reading 759 of the truth. Fourth documented event, initially recorded over the course of four years. Also gleaned from the internal processes of the Titan Utica, before slurry. Listen to this one. Especially if you fell through the cracks. If you’re not safe. If you’re immersed in it right now. We’ve had people break out before. It’s not likely, but… I believe in us.

This is the ideal episode of Roseworld to me. It is connected to the broader story, but it works well on its own. It incorporates horror and the retrofuturist trappings of the setting to great effect. I’m pretty proud of this one.

Continuing reading 759 of the truth. Third documented event, unusual format. This is a compiled account, gleaned from the internal processes of the Titan Utica, before global slurry. Confirmed to not be infohazardous, or otherwise mutative, over repeated exposure.

Tahawus is the first of many bits of obscure American history we visit in this story, other than Roseland itself. Also called “Adirondac,” it was a mining town embedded in the wilderness of the Adirondack Mountains. When the mine started to dry up, it became something like a resort or private club for wealthy outdoorsmen to station themselves at while they hiked and hunted and did whatever else it was they liked to do. Even this eventually dissolved, and the town sat unoccupied and rotting for many years until, in the 2000s, many of the vacant structures were destroyed and the site was renovated into a small tourist attraction, centered around the now non-functional forge that once was used for smelting iron ore.

Continuing reading 759 of the truth. Second documented event. Actually, the third documented event. The true second event is lost. One iteration ago. There were generative traces… tainted with slurry. So now the third is the second. Maybe at one time it was the fourth. We have lost so much. It’s important to keep the reading going, maintain the truth. All of it is relevant.
