TRANSCRIPT - SUBJECT #17
INTERVIEWER: Describe what you saw on the night of April 14th.
SUBJECT: It wasn't just graffiti. The colors were... wrong. Like they existed in some spectrum beyond what humans should see. And the hooded figure making it - their movements weren't natural. Sometimes their hands would pass through the wall instead of touching it.
INTERVIEWER: You mentioned physical symptoms?
SUBJECT: After watching for about five minutes, I started getting this high-pitched ringing in my ears. Then geometric patterns appeared in my peripheral vision. I dreamed of cities I've never seen, with impossible architecture.
INTERVIEWER: And you've noticed other markings throughout the city?
SUBJECT: Several so far. They seem to form some kind of pattern if you plot them on a map. Sometimes I find myself standing in front of one with no memory of deciding to go there.
INTERVIEWER: [Note: Subject exhibits elevated theta wave activity consistent with other witnesses]
PERSONAL LOG - DAY 34
Something's changing in me since I completed my marking last night. The city looks different now - like I can see energy fields pulsing around certain structures.
I followed the Elder's instructions, mixing my blood with the luminescent pigment while reciting the sequence. When I applied it to the wall, the paint seemed to move under my hands, forming patterns I hadn't consciously created.
Most disturbing: three passersby stopped to watch, their eyes reflecting the cosmic light in my sigil. They shouldn't have been able to see that quality unless they too were awakening.
Are there more potential initiates than the Elders realize? Or is the veil between worlds thinning faster than anticipated?
The marking I created feels like it's still connected to me somehow. I can sense it across the city, pulsing like a distant heartbeat.
My dreams are filled with voices speaking languages I don't understand but somehow comprehend.
I'm afraid, but I can't stop now.
TRANSMISSION TO ALL VESSELS
The Sixth Sigil must be placed at intersections where multiple urban energies converge. Subway entrances, market squares, busy crossroads - places where human consciousness pools and flows.
Your pigment mixture for this ritual requires heightened astral components. Prepare under the waxing moon. The boundary between realms thins, allowing greater cosmic infusion into your materials.
Authorities remain unaware of our true purpose. Their investigations focus on material components rather than energetic signatures. This blindness serves us.
Remember: the pattern forming across the city is more than symbolic. Each correctly placed sigil creates a node in a network of consciousness that extends beyond conventional perception.
When activated, the completed circuit will allow unprecedented communion with forces typically inaccessible to human awareness.
The time approaches. Remain vigilant. The Sanctum provides.

POLICE REPORT #43B
Officer Chen, Badge #8294
Ongoing investigation of "cosmic graffiti" incidents
For the fourth time this month, we've documented unusual vandalism appearing overnight in areas with no surveillance coverage. Unlike typical graffiti, these markings exhibit properties that defy explanation:
1. Pigments that appear to shift color depending on the viewing angle
2. Patterns that cause optical illusions, reported headaches in some viewers
3. Material that resists standard cleaning methods
4. Faint luminescence detected even under complete darkness
Witnesses report hooded figures working during rainstorms, though surveillance cameras mysteriously malfunction during these periods. Some witnesses have described feeling "strange" after prolonged exposure to the markings.
Det. Ted insists this is simply a new street art collective using experimental materials. I'm not convinced.
These incidents may be related to the increased reports of temporal anomalies in affected areas.
