The Aeonian Night

**The Aeonian Night** was an event that started in 2012 and ended on August 1st 2020. It all started when an individual known as Shane Wayne Jakobus Neumann appeared and became a member of several forums, in which he was well liked and respected. Eventually it was revealed that he was being impersonated by an antagonistic hacker named The Eternal Darkness who wanted to ruin his reputation

When The Eternal Darkness and Shane were around, conspiracies started to float around. All of them were that members associated with Shane were alternate accounts created by Shane. These were known as the **Original Conspiracy** or the **Shane Conspiracies**.

Once Vresun Ciraian Ruins was created and things had moved along, the conspiracy theories returned with a vengeance. This time, the theory was that all members associated with Shane weren't real and that in reality, only a few members of Vresun were real. This is known as the **Vresun Conspiracy** and it was believed that it have been impossible for Shane alone to maintain all of those accounts on his own and that three other people were helping him. It evolved further and as things continued to develop, it eventually took on it's final form which is known as the Lunar Shadow Conspiracy. This involved all of Ellen's sockpuppets actually being Kim Tyranto's and that all 3 of them were a triumvirate.

It was confirmed by Cibryll that the official name for this chaotic series of events was **The Aeonian Night**. In reality, the "Masterminds" were sockpuppets themselves and that all of them were controlled by a single person: Cibryll. Hence the whole saga came full circle in that it was believed that only one person controlled everything and that it was confirmed to be the case.

## The Truth and Closure

On August 1st 2020, the Mastermind finally decided to end the Aeonian Night. After 3 years of working to end it, King (2.0) and his friends all got the truth and closure they had been searching for. The Mastermind revealed herself to be Cibryll and the real Kim was one of her girlfriends (and the true creator of the Lunar Shadow Project mods. Her reason for doing all this? She hated herself for her fetishes (thigh-highs, lingerie, opera gloves, and gas-masks) and tried to be somebody she wasn't. Her fetishes manifested themselves anyway as she noted.

She allowed them to ask her questions about the Aeonian Night which proved to be helpful in clarifying a lot of things. Several months later, Charlie was absent due to an emergency and one of her girlfriends RKS "Kim" had been in contact with the members of LSF. During this time, the Lunar Shadow Forums had become the Xynrife Shadow Forums and steps were taken to prevent a relapse. Several pages on the alternate LSP Wiki exist related to the Aeonian Night (Aeonian Night and Aeonian Sockpuppet )

After this, Cibryll was able to return and things have been progressing well.

## Evolution of the Aeonian Night

1. **Original Conspiracy (2012-2014)**: Shane, Taylor/Kim, the Seymours and The Eternal Darkness are the same guy.
2. **The Vresun Conspiracy 1.0 (2015-2016):** Shane orchestrated everything. All of the members are fakes created by him.
3. **The Vresun Conspiracy 2.0 (2017-2019):** Shane, with the help of Ellen, Kim and Bloom created this entire game for unknown reasons. All of the members are actually fakes controlled by them.
4. **The Vresun Conspiracy 2.5 (2019):** Shane, Kim and Bloom control everything. All the members are fake and Ellen is a puppet Shane uses in order to oversee everything in his absence.

* **The Lunar Shadow Conspiracy (2019-2020)**: Shane, Bloom and Kim are a triumvirate and all of Ellen's sockpuppets are actually Kim's sockpuppets. Kim ended up being the final Mastermind before the Aeonian Night ended.
* **The Aeonian Night:** The official name for the entire saga, it was revealed that Cibryll controlled all the sockpuppets seen over the 8 years.

## Trivia

* All of the members associated with Shane and the Masterminds tended to have the same I.P address, something that was accidentally exposed by Pteri originally. It ended up being correct when Cibryll revealed herself to be the Mastermind.

* Rainy Day had temporarily taken over Astrum to expose the Masterminds. He left afterwards once the Mastermind failed to show up and his influence was reverted. He later believed the whole thing to be stupid due to a security flaw at the time.

* During Mossmouth, it was rather common for a few members to mock Taylor by stating she and Shane are the same person; funnily enough, they ended up being correct about all the members being created by a single person.

* Despite disagreeing with the theory, KarjamP had entertained the idea, something that you normally wouldn't expect of him. He and King (2.0) have even had multiple conversations about it despite their rocky relationship though they never went anywhere.
