Hag
[Access Level: Classified
Excerpts from TSR-10 of the Tau Seeker, investigating the “phenomenon of luminous spheres” (hereinafter — PLS) and its connection to the Hag. All materials are transferred to the archives of the Order.]
For the first time, the identity of the so-called Hag (her real name is Lynuta, “bone hand” in Mansi) surfaced in an investigation into the death of a group of climbing students. The incident is linked to the so-called luminous spheres. We have been observing unusual activity in that zone for a long time. Available data allow us to expect imminent confirmation of alien intervention.
Overnight stay at the Hag's and strange objects are mentioned in the diary of the group's head.
“She said that she lives in these forests from birth, helps people in villages for food. Kind of like a witch talking to the Sleepers”.
“This is the second night that we see the impossible in the sky! Colourful luminous balls, they seem to dance in the air!”
The climbers' bodies were found far from the camp. All of them died from strange injuries and froze in unnatural poses. The questioned local residents expressed similar assumptions — the group was killed by Sleepers (as they call the luminous spheres). They could not explain the nature of the term but assumed that Lynuta had set them against the group. Perhaps local shamans contacted other civilizations through primitive rituals?
New mentions of the Hag appeared after Crossout, in the same lands. Some sources mention new names — “Hela”, “Baba Lyna”.
The northern raiders searched for Hag's home in the taiga. They believed that she possessed some kind of chemical or hallucinogenic weapon that caused visions of “luminous spheres” in the sky above the camp of the dead students. Nobody returned from the search.
We continue to observe the situation. If efforts succeed, unique data and technologies may be at the disposal of the Order, such as those that we were able to find at the site of the UFO crash in 2011.
Coordinates of the Hag are being investigated.
The portrait “Hag” is currently available to players. It can be obtained by reaching reputation level 15 with the faction “Nomads”.
