What Are The Authorities Hiding?
By Carl Edwards for The Underground Scholar
July 4, 1932

As you’re no doubt aware, another massive electrical storm took place across the Uplantic continent in the early hours of Monday morning. Entire cities once again lost power, and while most local governments were somewhat better prepared to restore power and keep order this time after last fall’s big storm and outage, countless lives have been altered by these events. Some smaller towns are still without power as we go to press on Monday afternoon.
The national government has been conspicuously silent on the cause of these events. And, of course, the so-called “free” media has done nothing but parrot the government’s press releases, throwing around buzzwords like “weather event” and “natural disaster.” But anyone with a pair of eyes and half a brain knows there’s something highly unusual happening here. Here at the Scholar, we’ve already received dozens of reports from around the continent of glaring details that the official story peddlers are omitting.
The most ubiquitous and perhaps most alarming theme of these citizen reports has been the presence of “pink lightning.” People in places as far away as the Petchon Gulf coast and Lake Vorpoole have reported seeing bright pink crackling electrical discharge in the clouds Sunday night and early Monday morning. Of course, anyone who’s been around the new national sensation of Crystalline Casting (and who hasn’t?) is familiar with the pink glow that the crystals in the receiver units emit when receiving a far-away broadcast. And let us not forget that the first such massive storm hit Uplantica last year, just a few weeks before Crystalline Casting released their new broadcasting product for consumers nationwide. The syelti crystals used in the receivers have been part of rituals and artwork in K’Taen cultures for centuries. The latent ability of the crystals to broadcast sound and imagery over vast distances was not discovered until last year.
What’s more, the mysterious pink glow witnessed during last night’s storm was also reported by several eyewitnesses during the window in which famed ballplayer Yassine Joseph’s flight disappeared over Trat’eo Gulf just three weeks ago. One such eyewitness was the pilot of the jet, who reported seeing something “bright” and “pink” just before losing radio contact. Aside from an initial report the day after the flight’s disappearance, it appears as though any mention of the pink glow has been scrubbed from the media. I, for one, want to know what the Crystalline Casting company and the Uplantic government know about these events.
After last year’s electrical event, we and other media outlets reported that a huge chunk of the population experienced the same realistic deja vu-like dreams and false memories of the day of September 19, the day after that first storm. Citizens independently reported waking up remembering the same events of that day as if it had already happened, right down to specific news stories and the very specific and widely shared memory of ballplayer Brad Bailey hitting three home runs in a game.
Now again, after this latest storm, we’re receiving reports from even more people claiming to remember an entire week of missing time! In addition to the many reports of pink lightning connected to last night’s storm, we’ve received more reports of false memories and “missing time” today. Again, many of these reports share specific details, such as the death of legendary lounge singer Maybel Deacon at age 73. Even more strangely, the most widespread reports of memories from the week that hasn’t yet happened once again directly involve Northsouth professional athlete Brad Bailey. Last year’s memories of a three home run game by Bailey did not occur in our shared waking experience of September 19, although Bailey’s Guardians did win the game that day. This time, several people are saying they have a clear memory of Bailey suffering a bad injury that ended his baseball season early. Another strange shared memory has to do with recently deceased ballplayer Yassine Joseph dressed as a boxing fighter. This is certainly a strange occurrence, as Joseph has no known history in boxing. Nevertheless, several Uplanticans have reported brief visions of Joseph in the boxing getup during their dreams last night. We will certainly be keeping our eyes and ears pealed for any news about Deacon, Joseph, or Bailey as the next week unfolds.
It is clear to this author that there is a connection between Crystalline Casting and these electrical storms, and if someone is to blame for the chaos and despair of these events, we at the Scholar want to see them held accountable. We have heard scant chatter about the beliefs of some scientists within the Crystalline Casting project that they may have broken some sort of tenuous inter-dimensional boundary with their new discovery. We are compiling data for a future expose on the nature of these supposed other dimensions. The company and its employees have been tight-lipped since an offhand comment by one of Crystalline Castings creators, geologist Lono Kahukiwa’a, briefly mentioned “other dimensions of time and space” at the presser announcing pro baseball’s commercial partnership with the new technology.
Do you have any information about pink lightning, syelti crystals, alternate dimensions, missing time, or false memories? If so, please contact our offices. With your help, we can continue to expose the dark forces that threaten our way of life here in Uplantica.
