    [PREVIEW] Ulysses Pike: Born on Board

    A Marathon audio story. The door opens before I reach it. Nobody is behind it. This is a walk through the UESC Marathon on her way to Tau Ceti IV: a residential corridor, the hydroponics floor, the hangar, the service spine and the cryo archive. Four recorded logs from the Pike family play where they were left. Three generations of Pikes, two of them born on board, and Durandal, who has watched all of them. The recorded lines come from the Marathon codex, from the entry Personal Log: Pike, U. The ship comes from the codex entries on the Marathon itself. The rest is mine.

    [PREVIEW] All the Dead Voices in Anchor

    There are five entries in 'Skrac study' taken from the codex of marathon that chart the change in the birds of Marathon and their new carnivorous ways and what happens to the dead. I have taken it and created an audio story from it with a few additions. The Codex entry is right here: https://codex.cyberacme.systems/entry/skrac-study?search=luttero I

    [PREVIEW] Five Times Across the Wipe.

    This is inspired by a codex entry called Assassins Logs. You can find it here: https://codex.cyberacme.systems/entry/dead-drop-messages/assassins-logs This is an experiment in a pure vocal recording without any music and just a simple 10 minute story charting love across the wipes of runners in Marathon.

    [PREVIEW] The Story of The Last Alien and Ai in Marathon

    The two remaining passengers/prisoners of the UESC Marathon for many years were a brooding ai and an alien left in the bowels of the vaults. In this episode we tell their story and the situation that arose to bring them together. This is not a story fiction and this is not a rework. This is taken directly from the lore and codex of marathon and told with references. This is their tale.

    Sixty Four Million Years Of Brutal Marathon Lore → Explained

    64 million years of aliens, corporations, slavery, nazis, invasions and mass graves. Marathon's history spans 3 games, an ARG, side stories and 30 years of buried lore — and nobody has put all of it together. Until now. This is the complete unfiltered history: the Jjaro, the S'pht, the Pfhor Empire, Bernhard Strauss, Durandal, the UESC, the Misriah Massacre, the colony built above a chaos god, all six factions and the single truth at the centre of 64 million years of Marathon history.

    The Last Gift of Arachne

    Episode 3. Season One. There is a secret buried inside every death in Marathon. Every drop. Every crossing. Every kill on the soil of Tau Ceti that you walked away from thinking meant nothing. #marathonthegame Power in this universe doesn't belong to the ones with the biggest guns or the deepest pockets. It belongs to the ones who understood death first. Who got to Tau Ceti and recognised the ground for what it actually was. One faction has always known. And they came on that ship with you. Some of what follows is confirmed. Some is reconstructed from sealed records and redacted logs. All of it is grounded in lore. Arachne's Most Beautiful Gift in Marathon

    [PREVIEW] Patron Exclusive: The Curse of the Moon Stealers

    Episode 1. Season 1. Here is the story of the Severed Twins and the Pathway cult that rose on New Cascadia. The Story of how they changed the course of history of the colony that disappeared on Tau Ceti IV. A children's book printed on pine, fir, and spruce. Stories of severed twins and distant gods—the kind of words that made authorities fear its author. But the book had already escaped. In the marsh of a dying colony, a man named Arkiite Ryyll read it in the dark and read it wrong. This is the story of how one misread myth became permission for atrocity: how a vast, silent god dreaming beneath the ground became an alibi for murder, and how four fairy tales transformed a congregation into executioners who didn't wait for their god to act—they acted for it. Every death an offering to something that was never listening. A study in religious desperation, cosmic indifference, and the difference between a god that acts and a god that simply is. CW: cult indoctrination, poisoning, religious violence.
