The lines between their professional mission and their personal safety begin to blur as the investigators struggle with growing paranoia regarding their employer, CD Productions. An unprecedented directive from head office forces the team to decide whether they are still making a documentary or if they have become pawns in a much larger corporate game Follow along with additional information and player handouts at https://beirdtales.blogspot.com Cast of player characters (and the people that play them) Ryan Montgomery (Cody): Charismatic host of CD Productions documentary series “Lies & Legends”.

In this episode of Unresolved Century , Daniel Mercer investigates Mélocine, an unremarkable agricultural town in northeastern France with a deeply unsettling historical anomaly. The town appears in records only after the First World War, yet its church claims medieval origins and its graveyards contain tombstones dating back centuries. How can a town with an apparent medieval past leave almost no documentary trace before 1914? Were generations of records lost, was Mélocine known by another name, or is there something far stranger behind the town’s sudden appearance in modern history? Daniel follows the evidence—and discovers that the hardest mystery to explain may be the one hiding in plain sight.
Tuesday April 28th 2026. Somewhat shaken by the visceral evidence uncovered by the night before, the team makes a plan to investigate a lead uncovered for them by the CD Productions interns.

Monday April 27th 2026. No longer convinced that what brought them to the Isle is wholly genuine, the investigators set about trying to collect hard evidence through camera traps, talking to locals and buying everyone in the pub a drink. Their interview with Old Jim Roberston recounts the night three of his friends vanished without a trace, and explains why he believes it was the beginning of something far bigger than a simple disappearance.

Sunday 26th April 2026 When reports of unexplained lights and a string of grisly animal attacks begin circulating on Instagram from the remote Hebridean island of Eilean Draoch, most dismiss the stories as little more than local folklore. But for the documentary team at CD Productions, a conspiracy theory linking the island's tragedies to extraterrestrial visitors proves too intriguing to ignore. Travelling to what is normally regarded as one of Scotland's premier wildlife destinations, the team sets out to investigate claims of alien involvement in a series of disturbing incidents that have plagued the island recently. Interviewing residents, examining historical records, and following a trail of eyewitness accounts stretching back generations, they soon discover that the truth behind Eilean Draoch's reputation may be far stranger, and far more dangerous, than anyone expected. Are the stories merely the product of isolation, fear, and coincidence? Or is there something hidden among the island's cliffs, forests, and ancient ruins that defies conventional explanation? Join us as we uncover the mystery of Eilean Draoch in an investigation that blurs the line between documentary and nightmare.
