Investigation Notes

Transmission

 * Source: 87.81Hz coming from a van with radio equipment and possibly from cranes. (Van has temporarily been dealt with)
 * Target: Radios, hearing aids, etc.
 * Driver: Unknown male Fetch.
 * Old bald man, looked like a stitched-up zombie.
 * Fetch was made of hay, cloth straps, teeth (molars) and a short twig.
 * Told us to destroy the recording with his dying breath.
 * Time of transmittance: Midnight to 1 am, only when it rains.
 * Locations: Along the Thames. Isle of Dogs.
 * Effects: Compels (old) people to climb down the nearest manhole or drain into the sewers and to follow the rain.
 * Additional:
 * NOW Magazine had something about a 79 year old that escaped twice saying "an Angel told me to."
 * Van had maps for the Isle of Dogs, two of Tower Hills and one for Royal Victualling Yard (no longer exists) in Deptford.
 * Stopped an old man shouting 'Robbie' into the sewers before.

Message 1:

Taken from book: Mother Goose (1912)

Alice recognises the girl's voice from somewhere, maybe Ireland, maybe Faerie. Unsure.

"It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring,

He bumped his head on the back of the bed,

And couldn't get up in the morning."

Message 2:

Using Alice's voice. Masked by message 1.

"Proceed outside right away, make no sound and do not delay.

Find the nearest manhole or drain, crawl inside and follow the rain."

Sewers
Winter's stomping grounds. 

Group of people (probably Winter Courtiers) roaming around (potentially) rescuing the old people who go down.
 * Horns, Wings, Fur, Stinky, Three Eyes, Blue, Many Legs, Long Hair. (According to the rat.)
 * THEORY ALICE: Probably not eight people, but multiple characteristics belonging to fewer people.
 * Horns and Wings? Stinky fur? Three blue eyes? Many legs and long hair?
 * THEORY ANCA: Heket could be the stinky one or the zombie; many legs could be the spider contact.
 * THEORY ANCA: They killed the Gingerbread man (maybe the lady in the painting died then?)

Rat with camera was promised food in exchange for carrying it around.
 * Camera footage was edited(?) somehow, not a single long cut.
 * Starts with someone going down a narrow manhole.
 * Then lots of graffiti.
 * Two faces on the walls, possible cameras looking like some wall-head structures.
 * Rat goes through leaky pipes.
 * A lot of bones and skulls.
 * String of weird symbols in order:
 * [Unknown], Jesus with Thorn Crown (Autumn?), Snowflake with Skull (Winter?), piece of a map?, Mirror, Snowflake, Jesus, Sword and Sun, Sword and Sun tilted, Horse, Music Note, Crown.
 * THEORY ANCA: Symbols that appear are apparently (as Autumnus said) the symbols of the Silent Knight(s?), except of the Jesus one.

Strange symbols on the walls. 

Boat on the outside with raincoats, lamps and a walker.
 * Door next to boat had a new lock on it.
 * Doors/Gates are made of Cold Iron.

Large hall with stuff in it.
 * Theo had a vision about this area.

Painting of the dead lady (someone was thanking her for sacrifice on the note)
 * She got very defensive when Anca asked about the deaths in the sewers.
 * She said that she won’t break her oaths and won’t risk anything involving “the great work” (they are trying to achieve something)
 * Quotes she’s said: “I’m glad he’s back now.”, “It was worth it. Everyone can be safe now.”
 * THEORY ANCA: She died for this cause, it seems.
 * Mentioned Anca is an ally even is she doesn’t know it yet and that Pip and all of them are grateful
 * Warned her not to speak of their chat or else her friends will suspect her and her suffering will be in vain

Radio Room

 * He apparently hurt a True Fae really badly (or killed it? Unsure what Papi said back then) (Anca)
 * Grizzletooth was extremely upset and people got scared. (Anca)
 * A lot of Summer left for Winter when Grizzletooth was exiled. (Cait)

 * When supplying the motley one of her own televisions, the van it was arriving in was intercepted and the TV stolen.
 * She blamed Winter, but no real confirmation. (Cait)
 * Papi told the twins that the gingerbread Golems would come after them now they'd joined. (Cait)
 * THEORY ALICE: Article in NOW Magazine: "Giant Crocodile in Birmingham Sewers" <-- Is that Grizzletooth???

Winter

 * The Knight of Utmost Silence

Alice

 * 1) The Hollow is covered in a layer of snow. There are six dancing spiders with top hats on top of a little stage made out of popsicle sticks and matchsticks, and on the side sits a sad Alicepider who cannot dance with the rest because she is missing a leg. Alice carefully breaks off a bit of wood and makes a little cane for Alicepider to use so she can dance with the rest.
 * 2) The Hollow is covered in a layer of snow. Alice stands in front of the Library as she sees a sleigh going through the air. In the front of the sleigh sits Alice (not Alicepider), who calls down to Alice below. "Ho Ho Ho, we are you, you know." The sleigh is being pulled by the six spiders who aren't Alicepider.
 * 3) The Hollow is covered in a layer of snow. It is night, dark and cold. The buildings are all decorated with Christmas lights. Alice sits by herself on the side of the fountain, looking at a pile of presents. They are all for her. She opens them one by one and receives: - A stick horse, kind of like the one Varg would ride. - A wooden sword, that seems to match the horse, with a hilt covered in blue and white ribbons. - A book on Irish Whistle music. - A small, round desk mirror, the kind that can swivel around. - An Biobla Naofa, the Irish Bible. She gets pricked by a thorn as she puts the last gift away, and hanging from it is Alicepider. Complete with top hat and the makeshift cane from the first dream. Alicepider tells her that the others had all gone off to prepare for the Christmas party. When asked if she should be helping them, Alicepider tells her that she already did what she needed to and points at the Irish Bible, that has been turned into an empty notebook. Alicepider then says they need to leave because the road is long, and when Alice asks if she can help her along, Alicepider says that she has to walk it alone..
 * 4) All seven spiders are back together for the first time since the first dream. They brought four pies to celebrate this. Alice cuts into them with the Jabberwock’s vorpal blade. Pie 1: Centre of bird skulls. Pie 2: Laughter erupts upon being cut open. Pie 3: Searing magma seeps out that sets the tablecloth on fire. Pie 4: Plain and frozen, like it came from the freezer. Alice goes on a rant about already having had some of the laughing pie but then ends up eating the frozen pie instead. As soon as she does, she sees [images] and begins to weep as nostalgia overtakes her.
 * 5) * Upon waking from the 4th dream, Alice doesn't remember what she saw, but she vividly remembers seeing the land of her birth, and how chewing through the painful pie was worth its discomforts.

Evangeline
Cracked and icy land; surrounding cliffs covered in frozen vines. No sun in the sky; seemingly removed. The moon remains, with a barbed wire around it. Dreamscape was apparently not the Hollow; no signs of the houses, rivers, etc. Found Rubbo in spread-eagle position inside an ice formation, trapped; broke him out. Rubbo tells her that “everything started when you freed the Knight from Space Prison. And then you all overdid it and set out to slay the Sun! It became super cold without sunlight, you know?” Eva asks if the vines or anything else was their doing, and why they would have done any of the other things. Rubbo responds: “You all did, with Angelika and Alice at the front. It was very heroic. You all went up in Santa’s sled to fight the Sun. And everybody gets new shoes.”

New shoes: The kind with the flashing lights on the soles.

Caitlyn

 * 1) Millibabies
 * 2) * Caitlyn dreamed that each of her four children had achieved respectable jobs within the centre of London: Tony became a stockbroker in the Financial District and owns a huge penthouse, Izzy became a self-published author of Arcadian detective stories, Ant became an attorney-at-law for the Goblin Justice System, and Bella became a proud domestic queen with six millibabies of her own.
 * 3) Spaceship to the Moon
 * 4) * The twins sit within the command module of a spaceship which took months of planning and hedgespinning. She wears a stuffy helmet, as well does her brother, and the room is lit-up with buttons and dials which the twins are able to use with ease. Outside the porthole are the motley, including her millibabies, which have come to wish them farewell before launch. She knows the moment of truth is fast approaching and soon she and her brother will be flying towards the moon where grandfather's friend has all the answers.

Anca
Anca was getting to the future (having new shoes too), where the Hollow was burned down; a blazing sun over it and the whole placed was filled with armoured corpses, sun-bleached banners and the sort. Rubbo was old and said that we found the “bad guys” and imprisoned them on the moon (which was surrounded by barbed wire). She was apparently too late and couldn’t stop things from happening; nobody could stop the war after Theo and Cait became big shots in Summer. A Gentry was apparently strong (and wasn’t the Bright Lady from the journal of the Changelings before us).

Theo
In Theo's Dream, he and his sister were pirates, along with Papi and Grizzletooth who is a Crocodile. They sailed on a sea of sand.


 * Angie’s dream showed Anca making a time travelling machine.
 * Renny’s dream was about rain and Ignis telling him that all troubles will end once summer comes
