[NOTE: This story written and edited by me, a human. All AI-assisted content was strictly limited to grammar checking and assisting with the visual formatting of the transcript style (i.e. brackets, timestamps, etc) for clarity purposes.] 25 years ago, one of the biggest internet mysteries began from one of the most popular games of the 2000’s Lethe. A game that defined the Western RPG genre, and also produced an entity displaying anomalous properties. This being is known as the Warden, a Lethe guard who has been known to aid those in dire need in the real world, and punish those who have committed severe transgressions. The latter disappear under unknown circumstances without a trace. And these disappearances have only sparked more curiosity, and fear among those who know him.  I’m John Bielik of Digital Investigations. Join me on a deep dive on possibly one of the most unusual NPC’s to be whispered on various forums of the internet. An NPC whose motives have long been kept a mystery, until now. Here on Digital Investigations, we ask the big questions regarding this anomalous entity: Why can an NPC interact with people from the real world? Why does he either help or harm others? What happened to those who disappeared as of a result of his intervention? With several witness testimonies and evidence, we are about to embark on a journey through the darkest recesses of the internet to uncover the answers to those questions…and more. For this is a journey of the digital mind, and of forbidden knowledge…Be prepared for a descent into the digital unknown.
