It all started on July 11th, 2014. User /u/LewisGreen submitted this post to /r/Minecraft. LewisGreen got a private message from /u/OldRoot, containing an image link and the text "This is the beginning. Those who are pure will see what hides in the darkness". The image was a very dark screenshot of Minecraft in the forest, with a silhouette of a character in the background. /u/-Neroren- started the hunt. He brightened the image, revealing a transparent link to a SoundCloud track called "it has begun". It was a .wav sound file, which when run through spectrogram software revealed a message.
