There is not much time, so I must be quick. There is something... else... hidden within the .mdx file. But it doesn't stay there. It starts wit̡h̢ the his̕si̵n̷g̨... the horrid rasping of fingernails scraping frost off a chalkboard. It doesn't stop when the game ends. It doesn't stop if you play music or plug your ears. I͞t̀ ͠d̨͜o͡ę̨ş҉n̶̛'̶̵t ͠s͟͞t̸͞͠o̵p̴̕͞ when you sleep. It never stops.
Sometimes it is but a faint, menacing presence, whispering into the depths of my soul from behind walls and beneath floors, but it always grows closer until the terrible noise seems to emanate from within my skull. I am no̴t cr̡azy͟.̕ ̀Ḿy ͟r̶oom̷m̀a̕t̛es ͝a͘nd ͡I͏ ̷reco͜r̨de̵d͏ ͘ìt͞. ͞ There are
