The Order Gate to Hell Piling up the 300th Day and Night From Beyond the door, Cries of pain are heard And the final destination has become real Though not a blessed beginning. Thus One's Life Turns to Riches What was a bag of silver coins is now the number in a book. Yet fate hath no price. Ah, but do people know this? Lost Memories One characteristic, mentioned only in rare documents and dying out in the modern age, is that of the ritual sacrifice. "Offering prayers, pierce a man's chest with a copper stake. Drench the altar in the blood which spouts red from the heart, to praise and to show loyalty unto God." In another sacrificial rite mentioned in the same book, the victim is burned alive. This was a more dignified ceremony in which prisoners and sinners were not allowed to participate. Only the clergy could be sacrificed. Similar to burning at the stake, no comparable rite can be found in religions practiced nearby. It may have some connection with the main deity being a sun god. Even though this religion extols redemption, it brings to mind a dark and cultish history. Prayer to God Stained by the evils of this world, we hold our sorrows within us. Only you can heal us these wounds. Each morning, afternoon, evening and night, we call out your name and pray for the day of the Miraculous Descent. I give to you unreservedly, my body and my eternal soul. Whatever darkness may befall me, I will endure with you beside me. As proof of your miraculous power, guide our obedient and willing souls to the Road of Paradise, oh Lord. We will not give in to the power of temptation as long as we have you in our hearts. Oh Lord, save us with your compassion. Oh Lord, shower us with your blessings. Oh Lord, favor us with your abundance. Church Door Entrance This door is the gate which leads to the Road to Paradise. Embrace the bosom of the Holy Mother. Admit your sins and be forgiven. Eternal tranquility can be yours. Descent of the Holy Mother: The 21 Sacraments - "The First Sign. And God said, At the time of fullness, cleanse the world with my rage. Gather forth the White Oil, the Black Cup and the Blood of the Ten Sinners. Prepare for the Ritual of the Holy Assumption. - The Second Sign. And God said, Offer the Blood of the Ten Sinners and the White Oil. Be then released from the bonds of the flesh, and gain the Power of Heaven. From the Darkness and Void, bring forth Gloom, and gird thyself with Despair of the Giver of Wisdom. - The Third Sign. And God said, Return to the Source through sin's Temptation. Under the Watchful eye of the demon, wander alone in the formless Chaos. Only then will the Four Atonements be in alignment. The Last Sign. And God said, separate from the flesh too, she is who is the Mother Reborn and he who is the Receiver of Wisdom. If this be done, by the Mystery of the 21 Sacraments, the Mother shall be reborn and the Nation of Sin shall be redeemed." "Fire broke out in town. 6 homes destroyed. Charred body of Alessa Gillespie (7) found in aftermath. Cause of fire currently under investigation. Investigations show source as basement of Gillespie home. Blaze now believed to be caused by malfunction of antiquated boiler." - European Version of SH1 Teaching Despair: "Hope House" by Joseph Schreiber "Hope House", an orphanage on the outskirts of Silent Hill. But behind its false image is a place where children are kidnapped and brainwashed. Hope House is managed by the "Silent Hill Smile Support Society," a charity organization sometimes called "4S." It's true that 4S is a well-respected charity that "takes in poor children without homes and raises them with hope." But at it's heart, it is a heathen organization that teaches its own warped dogma in lieu of good religious values. Mr. Smith (tempt), who lives near "Hope House," had this to say: "Sometimes at night I can hear their weird prayers and the sounds of [children] crying. I went there to complain one time, but they ran me right out. Since then, it hasn't changed a bit." In fact, this reporter was refused admission when he attempted to take photographs in the facility. What exactly do the folks at "Hope House" have to hide? During my investigations, I was able to discover, however, a suspicious-looking round concrete tower which appears to be part of their facilities. Unfortunately no one was willing to tell us what the tower was used for. But it seems unlikely that it has anything to do with the business of raising orphans. It may in fact be a prison, or a secret place of worship. The cult religion that operates "Hope House" is known by the locals simply as "The Order". It's a religion that is deeply interwoven with Silent Hill's history. But its worshippers fervent belief that they are among the elite "chosen people" has a dark and dangerous side. I intend to continue my investigation of "Hope House" and the cult behind it. I've always believe that "telling the whole truth" and showing the children the true path, is our most important duty. Cult Diaries April 15, 1986 Starting from today, this will be my new diary. Lisa secretly gave it to me as a present. She says that the bandages on my body will be taken off soon. Outside the window, a small bird was sitting on a branch of the tree, so I gazed at it for a while. Look at the pretty colors, and so I say, suddenly realizing that it's already spring. I, too, want to play outside like the other kids... In the afternoon, again, they came by. I pretend to be asleep and hope they hadn't noticed. Outside the room, in a small voice that seemed so quiet, things were being talked about that I didn't understand the meanings of. I don't think there is anything to talk about here. April 16, 1986 Someone is talking outside my room. Serious, it seems. I don't think it's about me however. Maybe it's because he's concerned for my physical well-being, but recently, the director is not trying to talk to me much anymore. Truthfully, because he's not a doctor that I liked much, my mind feels at ease. I found out that, by some bizarre event, a guest will be visiting me. April 17, 1986 This morning, since sunrise, it's been busy. Not sure, but something about a certainly dead person having been resurrected? Did something like that happen? Scary stories... Because of that, my breakfast arrived a little late... Disappointed at the soup gone cold. Suddenly, I remembered him. He might have forgotten me, but I remember well. Recently, anytime something happens, I remember. I would like to meet him. Anyway, the guest's arrival will probably be the day after tomorrow, in the middle of the night. Before then... One more time, before then... April 18, 1986 Finally, tomorrow has come. I can't tell this to anyone. If I tell, I will probably be tied up to my bed. Before they arrive... A friend whom I can share my feelings with. The only one, who... Will he understand? Let's sleep early today. April 19, 1986 I have no choice but to get out of this place. A valuable pendant, which I especially like, I wear around my neck. Does it look good on me? Results in tomorrow's entry. April, 1986 It would be better for "myself" to die. After all, it's nothing to be afraid of. That child... that demon. When I think of the endless pain it will bring when it is birthed. I decided that, instead of the suffering and cruelty I endured in that sick room. That I would like to bestow a more gentle and peaceful death on "myself". Why do "I" resist? I never thought of "myself" as such a fool. Leonard Wolf Diaries Date Unknown The world is teeming with unnecessary people. It's God's decision that I fight. As a knight of honor, as a protector of the seal, I sacrifice myself to the blood of criminals. Claudia Wolf Diaries November 10 She didn't die then; she was born. I knew that for a fact. But then why haven't I found her yet? They were supposed to need her power to build Paradise, for the happiness of the people. She was supposed to be reborn for that. I'd really like to see her. November 14 Read "The Book of Praise." I want to thank Father for lending me such an invaluable book. I found what I'd been searching for in there -- how to awaken God. But it's much too cruel. Will I be able to pull it off when I see her? November 16 I was free all day, so I read "A Modern History of Refugees" and "Young Slaves: Child Exploitation." I don't want to be a mere bystander in this world. I can't do anything now, though, and that's what's hard. Unknown: Date Unknown People are starting to voice their dissatisfaction about Father Vincent using the Organization's money for his own personal benefit. I've also heard rumors that Father Vincent has been extorting donations from some followers. Is he really the right person for such a position? I'm in no place to deny all he's done to make the Organization grow. Even though we believe in God, itf there were some sort of gathering, shouldn't we be valued not for our limited talents or our talkativeness, but for the depth of our faith? L.S Unknown: Date Unknown Through the Ritual of the Holy Assumption, he built a world. It exists in a space separate from the world of our Lord. More accurately, it is within, yet without the Lord's world. Unlike the world of our Lord, it is a world in extreme flux. Unexpected doors or walls, moving floors, odd creatures, a world only he can control... Anyone swallowed up by that world will live there for eternity, undying. They will haunt that realm as a spirit. How can our Lord forgive such an abomination...? [...] It is important to travel lightly in that world. He who carries too heavy a burden willregret it. Walter Sullivan Diaries October 1st He told me to write whatever. No body will see it anyhow. I like to write. Teacher told me how. October 2nd I played with Bob. It was fun, but I went too far and HE got really mad. October 3rd I played with Bob again. I went even further this time. There was a huge rock. It was really cool. He beat me up after it. October 4th My cheek hurts. I hate him. October 5th I got hit again. I didn't do anything wrong. I wish he was dead October 6th Tomorrow is Book study in the chappel. If I can't read good I'll wind up like John. I am really scared. October 13th I finally got outside. John is still stuck in the round cell. I hope I can read good tomorrow. October 14th I did good reading today. I was so happy. But the 21 sacraments for the descent of the holy mother was hard. October 15th Bob is gone. Nobody will tell me what happened. I bet HE did it --Andrew! October 16th Some important people came today. One of them was a lady named Dahlia... October 17th The important lady told me mommy was asleep in Ashfield. I got a mommy too! I'm really happy! I wanna see her. Where is Ashfield anyhow? October 18th I have to stay in the round cell tomorrow even if I read good. If I do it God wil be happy so I wil do it. HE comes into the round cell a lot to visit but its ok I guess. October 21st I only leave the round cell on Sunday. Then I go and read the Book. I read realy good today too! If I can keep reading the 21 sacraments for the descent of the holy mother good, I can see mommy. That's what the important lady said. But tomorrow I'm going to the round cell again.
