An Open Letter, to R.S. Pine (#1)

Dear R.S. Pine

I have contacted you before (but technically that wasn't me. long story). I have decided to help you on your case. Let us, for the sake of your problem, that multiple universes exist. Now, throughout these universes exist pantheons of beings which have there roots in the human mind (i.e. they basically are our fears/ideas/sins in a corporeal form). You have your Sentimentals, your FACTS, your carnal, etc. But the ones your dealing with resemble mostly The Fears, the most active of the whole eldritch bunch. They (as the name hints) are the ma iferstaions of humenkinds fears. Now, ask yourself this: what do you fear? Do you fear God (and not as in the biblical sense)? Do you fear Nightmares? Do you fear Losing? Please tell us, and it might help.

Now as for which fear is ****ing about in you life, i'd say your universe has what The Archive calls a "Hybridization of PRE characteristics" (PRE is what they call fears. they're trying to be professional), or in other tearms, a fear that closely resembles two or more of the regular fears. we've got some in my universe (and boy are the annoying). Now lets analyze them:

The Watch Dog

This Seams to be a mixture of The Black Dog and The Grotesque, the fear of guilt and the fear of Dreams respectively. The Black Dog is ether a ghostly dog made of smoke or a body horror of a canine that can make new body-parts out of surrounding organisms. The Grotesque is a living dream which can appear as anything, but usually sticks to a circus motif (plus something with wolves). What you are dealing with is basically a compound of these two, or an overpowered Black Dog. But until we know, I will call it The Watch Dog, after the drawing.

Azreal

"Over the past few nights, I've also been dreaming of such an angel... incredibly tall and rather on the thin side, with enormous grey wings and a pale, porcelain-masked face. It both frightens and soothes me... it must be a very powerful angel. The aura around it teems with an eerie light, which casts it into shadow when viewed from head on, so one can't tell many details. It never speaks to me, the angel... but I feel its powerful gaze in my dreams and know that it is protecting me in its own way. Calming me, with the same all-encompassing love Our Lord shows all His children..."

...Yeah, sorry to burst you bubble (which I regret doing, as you do believe its an angel), but even the fears have a religious one. Azreal here seams to be a combination of The Archangel (blasphemous name I know) and The Slender Man (you've may of head of Tall-Thin-and-Faceless). Slendy is a faceless pail white being wearing a suit and tie (red/black) that like to abduct children (and anybody else for that matter), whist Hades is (get this) "The afterlife itself". No. Thats wrong. What it is is a Place/being/entity that can take on the forms of the dead (runners speculate that it absorbs souls, but no, I refuse to except that.), but commonly take the form of a gas mask wearing hooded man with a rifle (and sometimes wings. for the universes that call it the archangel and haven't seen a wing form I can explain). Now, it is a possibility that this one is looking out for you, but no becase it loves you. More likely it's working for its own agenda (like turning you into a cultist, absorbing your form/soul/whatever, etc.)

Advise

• Look at the following links: http://www.wanderingthebookshelves.blogspot.com/2014/12/pre-i-list-of-pres.html (for slightly helpful info on the "vanilla fears") and http://the-most-dangerous-game.blogspot.com/ (for how to servive the fears if you need to run)
• Otherwise just live your regular life but do it safely. Take no risks. Try not to attract unwanted attention. Don't listen to The Panopticon, don't shake any red handed hands/don't make any deals with strangers with red or concealed hands, pray to God, don't lose faith, do something good for runners, find the SMSC, and stay with your loved ones (unless it might endanger them).

Good luck, and God Bless you
