  • I escaped.
    I ran on my duck just before the first experiment began.
    Two of the other inmates managed to get out in the ensuing chaos.
    Unfortunately, the rest remained trapped.
    We're heading, with the research, to the nearby hospital to retrieve medical supplies for those who need them. Hopefully, everyone else manages to join us at the last safe place.

    @TheCubingCuber347 I'm surprised at how fast it was too. But Red Nexus made a mistake in permitting Victor and me to share a cell. Victor, being a geldseeker, was able to take what little gold there was in the prison bars and collect them into a very feeble door-opener (a key, if you will). There are more that escaped-- in the past, I mean-- who went to the warehouse.

    The two I escaped with were also headed in that direction. I had a mission of my own, however, and so said goodbye to #0 and #22.
    #0, a prisoner here, came up with a plan for paradise:

    the world is coming to an end. just like the ancient walkers predicted. the solar storm created chaos and destruction all over the world. friends desperate and scared. people trying to get by. but the terror red nexus brought upon the world was much worse than the solar storm ever...

    the plan must [scribble] proceed. iv'e hidden all my research in what used to be walkers safe house. even tho rn burned it down, true walkers will understand. find #0 in the safe house!
    I'm not in Humboldt. I'm so close, and yet so far...

    They... caught me. I found my duck and found out who wrote the letter, but now we're all prisoners. Turns out, the person who wrote the back half of the letter was a prisoner here as well. How am I supposed to escape? This place is a lot of things, but safe isn't one of them.
    From what I can tell, they took the chip off of Victor, because this address doesn't match up with the one shown on my tracking device. It also looks like the back of the letter I found was hastily written in blue ink. This is inconsistent with the other side of the letter, which was typed in red.
    I found something in the code that may assist in finding my captured duck:

    But who is A. A. Ceilnortz?
    Is this message a BLD memo, a warning, a prophecy, or all three?
    I'm still working on filling in the blanks, but I'm sure it'll come to me, somehow.

    From what I can tell, the capital letters at the bottom probably mean something. They might even fit into the blanks, but I haven't tried that yet. It just seems a bit too obvious for someone that powerful to do.

    I feel like such an idiot. Of course, the letters fit into the blanks. It's like in chess when one is playing against a more experienced player and overthink their strategy. It all makes sense now:

    To WalKer #83398:
    Go to

    A. A. Ceilnortz

    to FinD YoUr DuCK.


    Then the last line probably stays as is, while still assisting in filling in the blanks.
    I'm in the ersatz elevator shaft at 667 Dark Avenue. The Red Nexus group got very close to me on the way here -- a wall of cardboard was the only thing separating them and me. They left behind one of their trackers somehow, and after waiting a while I managed to retrieve it.

    Turns out, they've been tracking my computer. Of course. Why didn't I see this before?

    The point is, I managed to track down the chip they've implanted on Victor. And to make a long story short, he's not here.

    A letter was there, from the bad guys themselves.

    It simply read, "We regret to inform you that your animal of transport has been selected for experimentation. That is all."

    Needless to say, I had no words. Anger was the only thing that surged through my veins. I wanted to rip the letter into infinitesimal pieces but stopped abruptly when I noticed a clue as to Victor's location.

    Now, as I solve their stupid puzzle in this enormous abandoned penthouse, only one thought is going through my mind:

    They're going to pay for this.
    I got to the lumbermill and rode my duck to Prufrock Preparatory School. Now I'm at the turban monument at the school, an homage to Coach Genghis. Genghis was a bright student here once, but love for money consumed him.
    Victor (my duck) can smell the Red Nexus authorities on our tail. We might be faster together, but that just puts us in more danger. We're splitting up for the walk to a certain penthouse in the city.

    What kind of Duck is he then? Or maybe that's info you'd rather keep secret.

    He's a rare species of duck known as the geldseeker. His species was originally found by J. Roberts, the author of Jack and the Beanstalk, in 1733. Jack, as we shall call him, was actually part of the original story, and claims to have seen a "goose that laid golden eggs".

    Unfortunately, he got it wrong. (smh) In fact, there had been a DUCK that laid golden eggs at the top of the beanstalk, NOT a goose. And actually, it didn't even lay eggs. All it did was look for gold particles in the air and fuse them into an egg shape, hence the name geldseeker.
    I'm heading towards the burned-down Lucky Smells Lumbermill, where my duck, Victor, awaits me. Then, we will be able to head more quickly to our next destination: an old learning institution whose tall, gravestone-shaped pillars stand, not for learning as they once did, but for the misery of the students who attend.
    I have stopped for the night. Tonight, I'm sleeping by Lachrymose Lake (and being careful of the Lachrymose leeches). Good thing is, I'm about a mile away from the lake at a nearby inn, since it's tourism season here. It's less depressing than I'd expected.

    Well, Victor decided to hop ahead to Lucky Smells Lumbermill. Typically, I just ride my duck around, but we had to separate so we wouldn't be followed.

    Also, if it seems weird that I ride my own duck, an important fact to note is that he's approximately ten feet tall.

    ~series of unfortunate events music plays~
    I just passed a horseradish factory on Lousy Lane. The Red Nexus authorities aren't far behind me, but this means I have only 10 places left until I reach the

    I'm not going to let this series of unfortunate events deter me, however. My YouTube channel...
    Y'know how I said there was a law somewhere saying that changing my profile pic prematurely was illegal?
    Well, the authorities have almost caught up to me. I'll have to pack up my things and live life on the lam for the duck cause.

    It's funny that grammar has such importance in creating proper syntax for English and other languages, but is largely overlooked by the general populace when it comes to being grammatically correct. Video titles such as "Old people and they're phones" are common, even though the content of the video has nothing to do with old people being phones.

    It's and its are used interchangeably. Even major companies, such as Wendy's, are guilty of this.
    So, how do we change this?
    Well, a good thing to know is that, as a population's usage of a certain language evolves, so too does the language itself. In one hundred years, for all we know, we could have a completely different way of how to correctly say things.
