The Age of Darkness

In the third year of the arrival of the weird, we discovered the rules for fighting against the weird. Just turn on the radio at midnight and tune it to a blank channel to receive instructions from the "other world." Those who followed the instructions survived, and those who broke the rules disappeared forever. I was a night watchman and was responsible for broadcasting these life-saving signals late at night. Until last night, when I accidentally turned on the radio ten minutes early. A familiar voice came from the headphones: "Great, finally someone can hear us!" "We were the first people killed by the rules three years ago." "Remember, the rules themselves are the biggest weirdness!" "Don't trust the radio!"
