Hmmm looks like the comment idea was a bust or maybe we have to comment something else? @Saberlane have you seen anymore activity on the account?

And in a spooky case of happenstance (Or :cjmagiq: ) I had “You Can Fly! You Can Fly! You Can Fly!” playing in my head as I went to check.

I think I have more of a sense of what we nightmare buddies did to Knatz now…

So I’m stumped at what this mysterious poster wants or is trying to communicate

Its almost like he’s trying to tell us something :rofl:
I have to say, we faced the literal storm and for some reason I find the idea of a ghost running the Ackerly Green instagram far more unnerving. Warner is familiar though, right? He used to co-own the old Ackerly Green I think? So that gives this… whatever they are, a time and place, if they knew Warner.

Ye it’s either a huge clue or just a coincidence but I thought it was worth a shot. I’m gonna comb through the Instagram posts and see if I can find anything

The very back book keeps referencing someone named kirk. I think its the same book too, but different pages of it.

It references tite and botany too. Definitely the same book

Okay so the first 9 posts are unique after that it’s either letters, books or wooden table as background. The only noticeable thing in the book background is the “Beliefs and magic” heading

Possible match?

Aaaand a book that makes numerous references to all 3 words! Kirk on the Zambesi - Sir Reginald Coupland - Google Books Its called “kirk on the zambesi”. Written by Sir Reginald Coupland. Follows a man named David Livingstone in 1858 on a zoological and botanical expedition to the Zambesi with a companion named kirk. Written like a biography.

Oof. Davids cause of death was rather nasty. Internal bleeding mixed with disentary. Both of them were british legendary figures and african explorers. Interesting.
