Welcome to Lore Legends, a subset of lore episodes that explore the strange tales we whisper in the dark,

even if they can't always be proven by the history books.

So if you're ready, let's begin.

Go outside on a

go outside on a clear night and look up.

There, among the blackened skies, are dying balls of gas that have been there since the beginning of time.

They're just stars, of course. but to us they are magical, a

billion points of light that fill up the night sky. But it gets even better. floating in between them are planets, moons, and other celestial bodies scattered across endless

galaxies.

Because outer space is a vast expanse and has no boundaries, it's possible that somewhere beyond the reach of our

rovers and telescopes there exists life.

It could be a small animal of some kind or perhaps a microscopic bacterium or even a species of plant

that lives off something other than sunlight, or maybe it's something else, like a creature capable

of thinking, learning, and evolving.

And if such a being exists, it's entirely possible that they might have even paid us a visit,

which of course is where one particular branch of folklore enters the picture

that these otherworldly visitors have been kept from us by mysterious gatekeepers

we've all seen the movies. We remember the song, but what's the truth at the center of this

legend that there are clandestine people out there with one job and one job only to hunt down the little green men who visit our planet.

These individuals aren't just science fiction characters, they're part of our overall folklore.

They lurk in the background, orchestrating and scheming, so we remain happily unaware of what's really going on.

But while they might hide in the shadows, we are the ones who are truly kept in the dark.
