timeline of events: terry and terry have strange nightmares about jecky destroying the universe and seek each other out, based on what their visions involve. they go to egypt and search for the papers of the vogels but find nothing, because they don't have all the information yet. while in egypt they share a nightmare about a cat floating behind the wall and together decipher the way they can summon him (by saying "wade" in the right situation on youtube) wadercat manifests and gives them the information they need to summon the other youtube gods, who are four entities (not including sidekick PhiIIip Boarmans) sworn to protect Symphonum. Wadercat is the first defense mechanism and the presence of all four YouTube Gods are required to successfully sabotage the purification ceremony. the youtube gods begin working with the terrys to prevent them from destroying Symphonum prematurely, but the terrys are under the impression that they are aiding them to purify Jecky, in order to stop him from destroying the universe at all. Terry and Terry discuss having found the papers of the vogels with one of the girls, who never comes back. The girls had also sent a spy to gather information on the Terrys, but because they were in contact with Bill already, they have Bill murder the spy. jecky begins to contact the terrys, trying to get them to summon him by breaking down the wall, but this only serves to further push the terrys to perform the ritual - which is just what jecky wants. terry bowler travels to base 9 to retrieve the Go.D.S.E.E.D fragments, but on the way his phone is hijacked by jecky. this security breach allows the girls to target him. upon arrival base 9, terry is attacked by the girls, poisoned and interrogated. he escapes, retrieving the antidote from the girls. in a rush, he leaves his video footage and the girls upload it, along with the security footage of noseybonk generating the Go.D.S.E.E.D fragements in base 9's greenhouse, and send it to Terry Trilby as a warning to cease their project. terry and terry begin to build the circuit but need to track down and M-Rotor, so they contact Borlase and Horsley, the front for WiIIiam Horsemans and PhiIIip Boarmans' company who search for weak points in Symphonum in order to protect them. They provide the Terrys with an M-Rotor and also suggest a location for the purification ritual: base 21. Terry and Terry begin to experience strange pockets of time distortion, seeing into other timelines in which different events took place. Jecky exploits these in order to communicate with the Alpha timeline. Jecky uses these communications to steer the Terrys into the correct way to perform the ritual, summoning him into their world (note: jecky is not doing this to destroy the world, but to become reunited with his tendrils of dark matter).
