[classified] Watcher Interference Log

Subject: Observer Group ALPHA – internal codename: The Watchers

Status: Embedded across SubChannel 9 nodes. Sightings confirmed in Town 15, Vault Echo, and Sector 27A.

Details: Initially deployed as protocol enforcers during Cain’s memory isolation experiments. Believed to have detached from core directives after the Uplink Collapse.

Hilary's Note: “They don’t erase you all at once. They make you forget who you were… and then you forget to ask why.”

Behavior: Surveillance without form. Appear only as signal interference, flickers in static, or shadow blur beyond cameras. Seek memory bleed. Suppress unauthorized transmissions.

Response Protocol: Do not engage. Mask broadcasts. If you’re reading this… they’ve already marked you.
