In France...

That night was not yet the one he would manage to get to sleep. Mathias, agitated by a consuming nervousness and his mind completely obsessed with what he had discovered, was still hidden in the attic of his house, going all over the place, searching the slightest file. All these investigations into sects, serial killers and ancestral myths, these photos of various symbols and all from different countries and times, it was all starting to drive him crazy. He wanted to understand what it meant and why his parents had been killed for it.

_ "Pffff ... All these hours of research for nothing!" Mathias cracked, at the end of his rope.

Grabbing the first crate within reach, he threw it down with all his might to get over his nerves. The crate hit one of the attic walls, breaching the planks and raising a cloud of dust. And when the smoke was cleared, Mathias then noticed something that was behind the planks. Taking his cell phone to light up, coughing a little from the dust floating in the air, he took a look and discovered ... A secret room! In the attic of his house?

The hidden room that had been walled up, surely on purpose, was very small, barely room for an adult man. Inside, another stack of files had been carefully concealed. Why this extra hiding place for them? Carried away by his curiosity and especially his desire to finally want to know more about all this bullshit, Mathias took out the new files and opened them. His brow furrowed and his eyes widened as he flipped through the pages one by one.

More information gathered by his parents, about the serial killer named Ruiz, his criminal career during his life, but above all, the occult activities in which he had been able to take part. Apparently, he had recently joined the ranks of a very mysterious occult sect, one of the only known points of which was his symbol, a sort of sprawling black spiral in the middle of a triangle. These members called themselves the Children of the Trinity. According to the notes of Mathias' parents, this occult organization had been very active for the last few years, and in particular since ... The arrival of the monsters in the human world.

More and more confused, Mathias gathered all these files in the light of the lamp, reading them meticulously so as not to miss any detail. Among the images and photos he found other symbols, one in particular, again this sprawling spiral in this triangle, all found and photographed in different places on the planet and dating from times far removed from each other, the oldest ones appearing to date from the Neolithic era, and having all been discovered in places known to have been the sites of mass killings and mass suicides throughout history.

In the files, Mathias found a note, written in the hand of his father, which he read:

We are sure now. This psychopath, Ruiz, is in cahoots with this organization, the Children of the Trinity. They are absolutely everywhere. No one suspects their existence, and yet they are there, they can be anyone. Their origin is unknown, but they are apparently linked, directly or indirectly, to all of the most gruesome and bloodthirsty events in our history. According to the ancient symbols that we have studied, they seem to venerate kinds of entities, which do not represent god, the devil or any deity of any pagan pantheon ... These entities seem much older than that, and this worries us a lot ... They call them the Trinity Great Ancients Ones, and apparently, would act with the aim of seeing them return to our world.

But unfortunately, I believe my wife and I were spotted by the organization. It's only a matter of time before they come and silence us. My wife and I have decided to keep Mathias away from all this for now, so as not to endanger him. My son, if you find this, know that now your life will be in great danger, but it is absolutely necessary to stop the Children of the Trinity in their madness, or else nothing will be left of this world. The monsters that have arrived in our world could help you as they saved our world from the demons. Somehow, you must be able to contact them. Good luck, son, and may you one day forgive us for keeping all of this from you.
