1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
Hey, hey are you there?

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Hello?

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Me?

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Yes.

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,000
Did you add music and sound effects to my last recording?

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Oh I did, glad you noticed.

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Pretty nice right?

8
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Yes, it fits well.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,000
I'm glad.

10
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Alright anyway see ya.

11
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Wait, we're getting started.

12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Oh is it time?

13
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,000
Not yet, but I'm going to explain the plan to you.

14
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Explain away.

15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,000
The Gross Monster Relics.

16
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,000
They have an interesting story behind them.

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:01:01,000
At some point in the late third century, Saints Felix and Regula, along with their servant, fled to a city in Switzerland that's now known as Zurich.

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:07,000
They fled because of the intense prosecution of Christians at the time.

19
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Unfortunately for them, Roman authorities in Zurich found out about their Christian beliefs.

20
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:18,000
When the governor found out, he had them tried and executed.

21
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:25,000
However, there is a local legend that something very strange happened that day.

22
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:37,000
After they were beheaded, it is said that the Saints picked up their own heads and began to walk.

23
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:46,000
They walked forty paces uphill, then prayed before lying down, finally dead.

24
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,000
They were buried where they stopped.

25
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:56,000
And that site is now the Gross Monster Cathedral, where the Saints still lay.

26
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
And with them, their relics.

27
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000
The Gross Monster Relics.

28
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,000
After the dissolution of the monasteries in 1524, graves were opened.

29
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Some say they were empty, apart from some bone fragments.

30
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Now, the Catholics claim the Reformers were planning to throw the relics into the river.

31
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Not sure.

32
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,000
They say a courageous man of Uri stole the relics first and took them away to Andermatt,

33
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,000
where the two skulls of Felix and Regula can be seen to this very day.

34
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:38,000
The remaining relics were brought back and put inside the new Saint Felix and Regula Catholic Church.

35
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Let's steal them. That's the plan.

36
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:47,000
I don't want to involve anyone from my travel group in this, so we're doing it like in Italy.

37
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,000
We sneak out.

38
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,000
What happens if you get caught by police?

39
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,000
I don't. I won't.

40
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Right. Hence the what if.

41
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,000
It will be fine. I promise.

42
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,000
Sure. Can't really do much from here, so I guess I'm on board.

43
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000
Couldn't you leave the recorder?

44
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000
What?

45
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:19,000
If you wanted to stop me or leave, you could just possess me or possess something that's not the recorder.

46
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Right. Well, not really.

47
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,000
What?

48
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Look, I'm old, even for a haunt. I'm not a very strong presence to begin with, right?

49
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:38,000
I was bluffing back in the catacombs. I can barely possess a recorder, let alone a person.

50
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:45,000
If I leave this, I might not have the energy to go back. I'm reaching my end here.

51
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:50,000
Your end? You're a haunt, a ghost. What do you mean, end?

52
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Thought you were an expert.

53
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,000
As much as I can be without ever speaking to a haunt before.

54
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:04,000
The dead aren't forever. Those who don't pass on, like myself, have a limited time here.

55
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Eventually, our energy runs out.

56
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,000
What happens then?

57
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:16,000
I don't know. Maybe some afterlife. Maybe not. It might be nothing. I'll stop existing.

58
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:24,000
And no mind can comprehend that. Of all this fear-mongering you've been doing, that might be the scariest.

59
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,000
The thought of just...nothing.

60
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000
Anyways, heist?

61
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:39,000
Well, I'm sorry. Whatever it is, I hope it's peaceful.

62
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,000
Whatever it is, it'll be nice to have a change of pace after nearly three centuries.

63
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Tell me why.

64
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,000
What?

65
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Tell me why you're doing this.

66
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,000
I can't. I'm sorry. It defeats the purpose if I speak it out loud.

67
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Really? Interesting. Fine. What are we expecting to run into tonight?

68
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:11,000
I have reason to believe. The entire building is an anomaly.

69
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Oh, alright then. Not the one that's been chasing you?

70
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:22,000
No. There are different types of anomaly, just as there are different types of phantom spirits and haunts.

71
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:30,000
The anomaly that's chasing me is powerful. It can follow me, like the shade at sunset.

72
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Slowly but surely, it scrapes across the land as I run.

73
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Colorful.

74
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:42,000
The building would be a less powerful anomaly. Just the building is the anomaly.

75
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:46,000
How come no one's torn it down since it's so haunted?

76
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Most likely it's dormant. It will only attack once someone tries to take the relics.

77
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,000
Oh, that's us. Fun.

78
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Yeah.

79
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:15,000
It's beautiful. And still dormant. Time to get to work.

80
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Is that a bird?

81
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:23,000
Yes. There's a bird in here. Odd. It must have flown through the window I used.

82
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Did it?

83
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Good point. It might be a guardian or something. Well, I can't do anything about it now.

84
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:40,000
This. This is it. This is the relic I need.

85
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,000
What is it? I'm running blind here, remember? Adjectives, please.

86
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:56,000
This is the broach of the third patron saint. The one nearly forgotten by history. Exuperantius.

87
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:03,000
He was the servant to Felix and Regula. And the same miracle happened to him.

88
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:10,000
His story is told, but his name is forgotten. It's perfect.

89
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,000
He's here.

90
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Who?

91
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Exuperantius. It's his spirit.

92
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:34,000
Hello. Please, patron saint, allow me to use this relic just for a moment.

93
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,000
He doesn't like that I'm here.

94
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000
Figures. You... you broke in.

95
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:46,000
He wants something. You do. You want something.

96
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:54,000
You want. You want to be known.

97
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,000
I know your story.

98
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:09,000
You were there. You studied along with the other saints. You worshipped along with them. You were killed along with them.

99
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:19,000
You watched as they were killed. One movement of the guillotine and their work was gone. Persecuted for who they were and what they believed.

100
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Then it was your turn. There was nothing you could do. They laid you down into your machine.

101
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:36,000
The basket below your head was empty. Ready for you. Someone called out. The blade fell, scraping along the wood as it did.

102
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
But you did not die. None of you did.

103
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:58,000
You all stood back up, lifted your own head off the ground, out of the bucket, into your own arms, and marched up the hill, praying, before finally dying as everything went dark.

104
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Okay. He's gone. Let's do this. Be ready. Once I take the broach, I don't know what will happen.

105
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Go. Leave the recorder. Possess the broach.

106
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Okay. Good. The broach is imbued with afterlife. With stories, with energy.

107
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Come back. You've done what you need to do.

108
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Hello? Come back into the recorder.

109
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:50,000
You have to leave the brooch for this to work. Hurry. You have to come back. Jump one more time. You still have the energy.

110
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,000
Hurry. I'm back. Let's get out of here.

111
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Finally. I feel the brooch. I feel the relic. It's powerful.

112
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,000
Good. Let's go. This place feels like it's coming down.

113
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:17,000
It's harmless. Just a scare. Ignore it. It has no power. That lies here with me.

114
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Uh, yes, but we should go.

115
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Well done today. You have filled your end of the bargain. I will fulfill mine.

116
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Are we headed to Prague next?

117
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Munich next. Then Prague.

118
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Good. Good. Maybe I can finally rest.

119
00:10:44,000 --> 00:11:00,000
Maybe.

120
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:08,000 
Something is wrong. Something is hidden. Someone is listening.
