If there's one thing we know for certain, it's that Decca is persistent no matter what challenges she faces. After breaching DEC's Holoroom at DSEC-9 and basically threatening him and Queen Nara, and sending the Cult of Shut'thend's Oracle to meet with Toulan's Oracle (Sahira), her threats have not given her any reason to celebrate, as of yet. She and her efforts at the annual Monria St Patrick's Day Event failed miserably. Giving credit where credit is due, DEC and Queen Nara have managed to hold their own so far against any attempts by Decca and her entourage of evil to overthrow Toulan or gain back control of Monria.

However, we've known for some time now that all this maneuvering within time and space nonsense is not without a call on our part to remain vigilant, because there is no doubt whatsoever that something is brewing, and as mentioned previously, we don't know when, where, what or how, but it's coming. This has become quite evident as a result of the ongoing clandestine meetings that Decca seems to think have some sort of effect on lowering our strength and resilience. She is sadly mistaken, because with every move she makes, we become more of a unified force against her attempts to take us down.

It is with urgency that I share with you that credible intel sources have revealed a much larger gathering with Decca and her Cultist followers from the Church of Cthulhu at an underground location within the Monria cave system. These are actually some of the Priests that made the mass exodus with her from Broodham, Massachusetts through a portal vortex where they were attempting a ritual to awaken Cthulhu, and just so you understand more clearly how dire this situation is ...

As a point of historical reference, it appeared that this was the great exodus that has often been referred to, and not the actual awakening of Cthulhu as was intended. This took place July 2346, and if this great exodus was in fact to Monria, an enormous amount of time had passed from then to when Monria was discovered by a team from the Deep Space Extraction Corporation (DSEC). There were very few documents available to give us a true story of what the team encountered, and why there was such a decrease in population prior to our arrival in November 3012. This whole portal vortex thing also brings to mind our discovery of a gateway that was used by Yog-Sothoth during one of our St Patrick's Day events to access the Forensics crater. I don't know why I continued to resist what was perhaps the obvious because there was so much evidence pointing to Monria being the desired destination of the Cultists and other followers of Cthulhu.

During my continued research, I discovered an order in Innsmouth, Massachusetts that also had ties to the Cultists. It was said to have been destroyed, but it was close enough to the town of Broodham during the great exodus that I wondered if any members of this order made it to Monria as well. Yes, I said Monria. The Esoteric Order of Dagon was the primary religion in Innsmouth around 1838. The members of this secret cult worshipped Dagon and Cthulhu. Dagon was a deity who presided over the Deep Ones, an amphibious humanoid race indigenous to Earth's oceans. Dagon and Cthulhu are both considered Great Old Ones. Dagon is also known as Father Dagon and the consort of Mother Hydra. There is still much to learn about this order, but if it is found that the new city of R'lyeh actually exists within the core of Monria in a deep, dark abyss under water where Cthulhu lies in a death-like sleep dreaming, then it is also safe to say that the Deep Ones are in residence as well because they are never far from Cthulhu to do his bidding. It would just make sense then that Dagon as the ruler of the Deep Ones would also be nearby. I wonder if this is the tertiary cult connected to the Cultist's growing membership.

Well guess what? We have since discovered that indeed the city of R'lyeh lies deep within Monria's core, and all the evil we fear does exist. Therefore, as I continue to implore you, do not underestimate what Decca is capable of, nor that we are facing great dangers, not only at Monria, but also DSEC-9 and Toulan.

The question still remains as to ... where, when, what and how this will happen, and whether we will be prepared to defeat it.

To gain a greater understanding of the timeline of Decca, the Cultists and the devastation they left in their wake on Earth prior to the great exodus, have a look at the details in the following book that Pinthas wrote with my reflections to bring more clarity of what was going on ... it's actually my favorite in the 5 book series on Monria.

From the beginning, only Monria creatures have been involved with our events because the events are Monria-related only. DSEC-9 may be the expansion of Monria, but it is on the Toulan territory where we used Toulan creatures. We also have a Toulan-related monthly event where only Toulan-related event creatures are involved.

Monria has a rich history steeped in the Cthulhu-themed lore, and we continue to build upon that. Perhaps one day there will be separate events designed specifically for DSEC-9, but for now, we are still building out the DSEC-9 map from the ground up ... and if all goes as planned, we will release the third map section with the June VU, and the final and fourth map section with the Dec VU.

Monria events are unique only to Monria, and should remain that way going forward ... but stay tuned.

REMINDER ... if you will be Team Hunting during the Monria event, you need to register your Team Name using the Monria name in it, and who your Team Leader is in order to be eligible for the Team Hunting prizes.
