I found a locked safe hidden at the back of a closet in my new house

This is what Myst would be in real life - not cleverly figuring out how to open the safe yourself but realizing that you can’t then trying to figure out if you can afford a locksmith and waiting forever for them to come and open it.

You may be on to something. Did Rob look for clues? Did the previous owners have constellations painted on the ceiling? Is there a clock tower in the backyard?

Do we see Rob’s face peering forlornly out of the pages of a book?

Has Rob been looking for old journals and tomes of research scattered around his house? Has he been fastidiously flipping switches and pressing buttons and then wandering around his house to see if any new areas have opened or any mechanisms been activated?

I saw that there were 64 unread posts on this thread. I panicked, fearing that at last, the wheels were turning, and I had missed that moment of revelation.

It’s quite possible that, even if the ‘safe’ is supposedly ‘opened’ the populace will decry it as ‘fake news’ and refuse to accept the alleged reports as anything other than a Chinese hoax.
