everyone. It's Karine, the voice of Simon

3:51

Fairchild from Magnus Archives. Today, I'm here

3:53

to advertise Remnants, a podcast just launched

3:56

on the RQ network. Remnants is a

3:58

weekly dark fantasy theme. thriller audio

4:00

drama with a new mystery each week

4:02

and is from the brilliant creator behind

4:04

other great shows that includes Spirit Box

4:07

Radio and Not Quite Dead. When we

4:09

die the remnants of us return to

4:11

the first and last place. Our fate

4:13

is decided by Sir and his new

4:15

apprentice who read our remnants to determine

4:17

whether they should be reshelved or discarded.

4:19

But what are the criteria? What happens

4:21

to discarded souls? How are new lives

4:23

for the reshelves determined? And why after

4:25

untold stretches of existence has Sir decided

4:28

that he needs help to do it?

4:30

Remnants explores the boundaries between right and

4:32

wrong, examining humanity from its brightest and

4:34

best to its darkest and most frightening

4:36

and all the gray in between. To

23 A New You I'm

6:26

just a broken pencil. I see. And

6:29

what exactly is this you're working

6:32

on anyway? Just some response department

6:34

paperwork. You

6:36

are aware that the response department hasn't

6:38

existed for some years now? Well,

6:41

yes, but... I'm afraid it

6:43

looks like our colleagues are entertaining

6:45

themselves at your expense. Sorry? I've

6:48

seen this with other new

6:50

hires. Some ill-conceived initiation, right?

6:53

Alice is doing, I suspect. Okay,

6:57

thanks for the heads up. What

7:02

I am trying to say, Sam,

7:04

is that this paperwork is unnecessary.

7:07

Meaningless. I understand, but

7:10

I think I might see how far down the rabbit hole goes.

7:13

If it is Alice. I'm sure it is. I

7:15

want to see how long she can keep it up for. So

7:18

long as it doesn't interfere with your work. Oh,

7:20

I'm doing it strictly off the clock. It's

7:25

actually sort of comforting in a way, you know? I

7:27

can assure you I don't. There's

7:30

just something very zen about filling in

7:32

pointless forms now and then. I

7:34

see. Well,

7:39

as engrossing as this must be for

7:41

you, I believe your shift has started.

8:03

peace, 2006-18, 1931.

8:12

Hey all, A here.

8:14

First off, thank you so much for all

8:17

the help over these past few months. I

8:19

can't express how insightful, patient, and open-minded this

8:22

community has been. I never thought I'd

8:24

find others willing to help me create a

8:26

better me like this. So, sincerely,

8:29

thank you. Anyway,

8:31

I'm going to be documenting my journey here and

8:34

wanted to start by asking how you all went

8:36

about finding your peace. I've been

8:38

thinking it over for a while now. I

8:40

even caught myself saying it to myself in the

8:42

bathroom mirror at work. Someone overheard

8:44

me and thought I was talking about

8:46

finding peace, like, inner peace,

8:49

and asked if I was meditating. Kind

8:51

of ironic, really. But I don't think they'd

8:54

get the joke. Anyway,

8:56

I'd love to know how others found their peace.

8:59

Or I guess my question is more, does

9:01

it matter? Should it be

9:04

important? Should it be meaningful? Should it

9:06

be random? Am I overthinking it? Looking

9:09

for thoughts and advice. I'm going to take this all

9:11

away, so we'll take all the help I can get.

number two, found it. A.L.

9:21

Newman, 86, 1307, 18, 1852. I think I found

9:23

it. My peace. Maybe I knew where it was all

9:32

along. I'm a bit worried though because to

9:34

get it I have to be a bit sneaky. Nothing

9:37

too bad, but I'm nervous. There's

9:39

this restaurant I eat at all the time, or

9:41

rather, I used to eat at all the time.

9:44

And I guess it's significant to me. It

9:46

was where I said yes after Anthony proposed,

9:48

those who have read some of my previous

9:50

posts know how that turned out. But

9:53

it's also where I first realized that I had

9:55

to do this. They

9:57

have this massive aquarium, and I

9:59

remember just suddenly... realizing how serene

10:02

everything was inside. The

10:04

water was crystal blue and at the bottom there it

10:06

was. Vibrant, electric

10:09

almost and so

10:11

very much alive. God

10:13

knows how they got it all through customs. I

10:16

remember the first night coming home after that. Anthony

10:19

was snoring beside me and I couldn't stop

10:21

thinking about that aquarium. I

10:24

didn't really know what I was searching for. I didn't

10:26

know how to articulate it. It's

10:28

a feeling I'm sure many of us here know very

10:30

well. And so as I

10:32

tried to unfold my thoughts I stumbled upon...

10:35

Well, you guys. Smiley

10:38

face. So yeah,

10:40

that's going to be my piece. I've already

10:43

spoken to a waiter who's agreed to let me in

10:45

the back tomorrow night after closing while they're cleaning up

10:47

the kitchen. I have my container

10:49

and I've read all the steps in the how-to

10:51

forum. I just wanted you

10:53

all to be here with me to experience it

10:55

so wish me luck. 28 likes,

number three, I think I'm just about ready.

11:05

A.L. Newman 86 14 07 18 20 48. I'm

11:11

parked in across the street waiting for the

11:13

last customers thinking about what this place meant

11:16

to me back then. What would have happened

11:18

if things had been different? Not

11:20

that I'd have it any other way. His

11:23

voice was so loud for so long drowned

11:25

me out of my own life. I

11:27

wonder if any of you have felt it. The

11:29

way other people try to convince us that we

11:32

can better ourselves by being more like what they

11:34

want. But we can

11:36

become someone new, someone better,

11:39

someone the pain can't touch. And

11:42

he would never understand the difference. He

11:44

couldn't. I wonder how

11:47

many people in that restaurant right now are still stuck

11:49

like I was. I'm

11:51

just killing time so happy to chat it through

11:53

if anyone wants at least until

11:55

the waiter arrives. 13 likes,

A.L. Newman 86, 1507, 18, 20, 37. I

12:10

can't believe it, my heart is still

12:12

racing. I've never done anything like this

12:15

before. Never stolen, never cheated. I

12:17

feel alive for the first time in my

12:19

life. I'm staring

12:21

at my peace right now. It's

12:24

on my desk. I want to keep

12:26

it warm. I'm going to sleep

12:28

holding it tonight like you all suggested, so it's

12:30

properly bonded with me before tomorrow. It

12:33

is safe, right? Of

12:36

course it is, I'm overthinking it. We'll

12:38

be back tomorrow, right before the full moon. 34

12:47

7, 18, 19, 22. Took

12:53

today off work, sleeping beside

12:55

the coral. My coral, my peace.

12:59

I slept better than any night next to

13:01

Anthony, better than any night ever. The

13:03

best sleep of my life. I'm

13:06

so ready to be whole. I

13:09

even had a dream last night. I

13:12

was back at the restaurant looking at the

13:14

aquarium while Anthony prattled on. I

13:16

was staring aimlessly at the lights. The

13:19

colorful stones. The green of

13:21

the moss on the stones that hugged the coral.

13:24

When all of a sudden I was alone. And

13:27

I was afraid. I

13:30

spanned my head around looking for Anthony for the

13:32

waiter for anyone. Then I

13:34

saw her on the other

13:36

side of the aquarium. We

13:39

locked eyes for just a moment. Like

13:42

I said, I want to share every part of this for

13:44

anyone who wants to follow in my steps. I

13:46

know some of you like the dream interpretation part of

13:49

it and I wanted to share. But

13:51

I'm ready. I have my rubber gloves.

13:55

I've sanitized the scalpel as lasercat23 suggested. I

13:58

have a clean working surface, bags, bandages. and

14:00

my sewing kit for after and I

14:04

am nervous. I

14:07

know what I need to do and I know it will all

14:09

be worth it. We'll

14:11

update right after. Here we go.

a bit out of it but I promised I would

14:31

update. Feeling a bit woozy

14:33

but it's done. My

14:35

thigh bled a lot more than I expected.

14:37

You were right, Bantamba Jay. I

14:39

have tomorrow off but I have to go back to

14:41

work while she starts to grow. I can't

14:44

wait. I can see her under

14:47

my rippled skin waiting

14:49

to grow. She's perfect.

Newman 86 26 0 7 18 15 34. I've been

15:04

at work for a week now

15:10

and it's so different. It

15:12

was difficult to go back to normal knowing

15:15

she was inside me but here

15:17

I am. Actually sat at my desk

15:19

with her pressing against my thigh skin. I

15:22

keep catching myself running my fingers under my

15:24

skirt just to feel her pressing up

15:26

beneath my skin. Living,

15:28

breathing polyps gently moving through

15:30

my leg. A life

15:32

that I hold within my body and nurture.

15:36

Ani would never have understood. It's not

15:38

the same as some squealing baby. I'm

15:41

1. AL Newman 86 18 0 8 18 22 Hey

16:01

all, I know it's been a few weeks since

16:03

I updated. I'm in the early parts of

16:05

stage 2 and I'm here to

16:08

confirm it is terrifying. Started

16:10

with my feet. I noticed in

16:12

the shower one day that I couldn't feel the hot water

16:15

on them. It was so strange

16:17

at first but I knew what was happening

16:19

thanks to your advice. It's

16:21

up to my waist now. No feeling

16:23

whatsoever. I'm on bereavement

16:25

leave from work for the next bit. And

16:28

I have some vacation days saved up. I

16:31

have the humidifier set high, the curtains are

16:33

taped shut and everything I need is within

16:35

reach. I know any

16:37

day now my second stage will properly begin.

16:40

I'm terrified. I'm

16:43

exhilarated. It's really happening.

My secret dash update 2. AL

16:54

Newman 86 27 08 18 10 13. It

17:00

started. Last night I heard it

17:03

while laying in bed. It's

17:05

exactly as described. I couldn't

17:07

feel a thing. Nothing. But

17:09

then the skin broke with such a distinct sound.

17:13

Like cutting a half inflated football.

17:16

Then I saw the red blossom out through

17:18

the white sheets. She's

17:20

so beautiful. Bright pink

17:22

and radiant. The coral

17:25

polyps blooming and scattering from the broken

17:27

flesh over my feet and legs. With

17:30

such an incredible smell. Like

17:33

sea water, sand and copper.

17:37

It's slow though. Much slower than I

17:39

would have thought. Oh

17:41

and I managed to rent a paralysis computer.

17:44

Great suggestion again Burnt Humberjay. So

17:46

I should be able to keep everyone updated as planned.

17:49

From where my arms start to go. I

17:52

cannot express how great it is to finally

17:55

see her. To finally meet her

17:57

out in the world at last. likes

my stomach unzip. The

skin stretched then tore cleanly. There

18:52

was only the blood. It

18:55

was beautiful but it took forever.

18:59

I keep thinking of this life I'm

19:01

leaving behind. I'd love

19:03

her to keep my name but

19:05

wrong with her. I don't. Help

by Better Than You 03, 01, 18, 12, 07. Oh,

21:24

quick. You've

21:29

got me started.

21:32

Very sorry. Stop

21:35

it. Anything

21:41

good tonight? Another evil toy.

21:43

It's like sex this week.

21:46

I'd give you my way to once if I could. Oh,

21:49

thanks. Speaking

21:51

of, did you have any luck? Those

21:54

names I gave you, you find anything? Nothing

21:57

useful. Jonathan Sennings is pretty

21:59

generic. his names go and I

22:01

didn't have much luck with Martin Blackwood either. There

22:04

were two that were close to the right age. But?

22:07

But they died. Separately, nearly 20

22:09

years ago. Cycling accident and

22:11

some kind of heart thing. No

22:13

connection to the Magnus Institute. As

22:16

far as I can tell, they never even met. What

22:18

did you say you fondle? A couple of old documents. I

22:21

must have got the wrong end. A stick. I've

22:23

had a bit of luck elsewhere though. Oh yeah?

22:26

I think I found the right Missira Hossing

22:29

and I have a lead on Helen.

22:32

Richardson? That's the one. Fantastic. When can

22:34

we go talk to them? Okay, hold

22:36

your horses. Don't.

22:43

Cakes join. I'm

22:45

fine. Glad to hear it. Gwen,

22:49

it's okay if you need a bit of help

22:51

now you're back on cases. I've said I'm fine.

22:53

I told

22:56

you. All right then. Shall

22:59

we? God yes. God yes. So

23:18

I hear you're back to the normal pleasant.

23:22

So. I'm

23:25

fine. I

23:27

dropped my mug. I can see that. I

23:37

had a favourite mug. It

23:39

said, love you bitch and had

23:41

a picture of a drunk dog on it. And

23:45

Luke got it in the air with the cash for his first gig. Sam

23:48

broke it by accident last month and

23:51

nearly fed him the pieces. Is

23:55

it really that bad being back in the muck with the

23:57

rest of us? It's not that. Yeah.

24:01

You wouldn't understand. Probably not.

24:04

But I'm as good as you're going to

24:06

get here. Especially when you keep biting everyone's

24:08

heads off. Lena.

24:13

She's been sending me out to deal with people. Things.

24:18

Okay. And, well,

24:20

they're... weird.

24:24

Weird like a lobster in a hat? Weird

24:27

or... I

24:29

think I have an idea where our cases are coming

24:31

from. What are you saying, Gwen?

24:35

I thought maybe we were meant to be documenting them, keeping

24:38

them monitored or under control, but... but

24:41

then the external started turning up in

24:43

the caseload after I gave them instructions

24:45

and... Last

24:49

time it was this tattooist. I

24:52

was meant to be recruiting them only. Things

24:54

didn't go well, Alice. They

24:57

weren't bad. Very bad.

25:00

Go on. They... It...

25:03

well... It turned on me. And

25:06

I mean really turned on me. It

25:09

was going to kill me, Alice. It

25:11

killed someone right in front of me and I was... It

25:15

was ready for me next. But...

25:19

but then another showed up. Another what?

25:22

Another thing. Another external. At

25:25

least I think it was. They

25:27

faced off and... I ran.

25:31

God. What did the

25:33

police say? What are you

25:35

talking about? The police? Alice,

25:37

this wasn't some random mugging. These

25:40

things, they're awful. Horrific.

25:43

They aren't human. And

25:46

Lena knows this? Oh, she

25:48

knows. She just doesn't care

25:50

enough to warn us. You

25:56

don't believe me. After what I've seen here over

25:58

the years? No, I

26:00

am totally ready to believe Lena would

26:03

rather hire literal monsters that pay a

26:05

decent wage. Sorry.

26:10

No wonder you've been so arsy. I've

26:12

not been arsy. So this other

26:14

external, why did it intervene?

26:17

I don't know. But like, how did you

26:19

know it was an external? Because I

26:22

know how many eyes a regular human is supposed

26:24

to have. Just... stood

26:27

there holding this on tape recorder.

26:31

What? What is

26:33

it? Tape recorder? Yes.

26:37

You're sure? Of course I'm sure.

26:40

Are you not listening to me? I just

26:42

told you Lena has been hiring supernatural

26:44

monsters and you're asking about a cassette

26:46

player of all things. Shut up. Don't you

26:48

dare tell me to shut up Alice. Right,

26:50

I think we're in danger. That's what I've

26:52

been trying to say for the last five

26:55

minutes. Listen, that tape thing. This

26:58

isn't the first time I've... What?

27:02

I think they might be after us. All

27:05

of us. Alice,

27:10

what are we going to do? I

27:12

don't know. The

32:30

everyone, it's Kareen, the voice of Simon

32:32

Fairchild from Magnus Archives. Today I'm here

32:34

to advertise Remnants, a podcast just launched

32:36

on the RQ network. Remnants is a

32:38

weekly dark fantasy thriller audio drama with

32:41

a new mystery each week and is

32:43

from the brilliant creator behind other great

32:45

shows that include Spirit Box Radio and

32:47

Not Quite Dead. When we die, the

32:49

Remnants of us return to the first

32:51

and last place. Our fate is decided

32:53

by Sir and his new apprentice, who

32:55

read our Remnants to determine whether they

32:57

should be reshelved or discarded. And what

32:59

are the criteria? What happens to discard

33:02

its souls? How are new lives for

33:04

the reshelves determined? And why, after

33:06

untold stretches of existence, has Sir decided that

33:08

he needs help to do it? Remnants

33:11

explores the boundaries between right and

33:13

wrong, examining humanity from its brightest

33:15

and best to its darkest and

33:17

most frightening, and all the grey

33:19

in between. To listen, search for

33:21

Remnants and audio drama wherever you

33:23

listen to your podcasts. Or for
