THREAD 001 // THE FIRST SIGNAL

Has anyone else received the transmission? The signal appeared without an origin point. No server. No location. Nothing.

OBSERVER
03:22 UTC

Confirmed. The same message appeared on three separate systems. The strange part is that the timestamp was older than the network itself.

NULL_USER
04:01 UTC

Stop searching for the source. Some connections are not meant to be traced.
