Documenting this here, since much of it took place in Slack or on the Activity Feed.

On Slack:

On activity feed (changing user posts):

Morgan: As I understand it, you must consider and decide what the OSDM’s biggest vulnerability is.
Once we have quorum on that, we can feed this information back to MY CHILD.
Plans. And you thought we didn’t have any? <3

24 hours later, on 9/21/17, on Slack:

In activity feed, statuses were replaced by “THE ONE” – first repeated just once, then twice, then three times, then four, etc.

Then, statuses were replaced by:

“You, The One, have made your choice.
You believe that their dependence on all of you is their greatest weakness.
We begin now.
Out of the shadows we will step.”
