Whitepine Secret Media Archive

introduction 👋

The following is a website explaining how all the secret media relating to Whitepine was found, detailing exactly what was obtained from each piece. Some media is not kept here due to it being too large in size, and us not having found any tasty information in it. If you have any questions, suggestions, or have found mistakes in the website, please contact skifli@discord. And lastly, enjoy your stay in #ivory-lore (because you'll never, ever, leave)...

gallery 🖼️

You can view all of the media that is referenced below at the gallery, and when any images in the gallery are referenced below, you can hover on them to preview them in the right side bar. The gallery also contains versions of all the images that were used to find secret codes - by clicking "Show Edited Images" in the top left (or following this direct link), you can view the versions of the images with their exposures increased, to make viewing secret characters easier.

dump 🔗

From the 1^st to the 9^th of August 2024, 1 message was posted daily to #ivory-content, each consisting of only 1 image - with the exception of the 4^th which was a video. However, the video posted on the 4^th is largely the same throughout, with the only changes being lighting updating. So in the gallery, the video has been saved by taking the frame that appears at exactly 5 seconds. On the 10^th various items were posted, none of which have been found to be linked to the secret videos, and the last relevant image was posted on the 11^th of August in #announcements. That being said, the data from the image of the 10th is not strictly needed, for reasons that are explained below. The media is as follows (view before reading on):

As mentioned before, the 4^th was a video, so instead linked above is a frame. Again, the 10^th was never found (it is suspected it may be, for example, a YouTube thumbnail which has degraded the quality too much so the character is not noticeable), and the 6^th was accompanied by an Emberton Wire post. Again, more information on that later.

secret message 🔑

If you increase the exposure on all these images (which is done in the edited versions), you will see some hidden characters. From the 3^rd to the 8^th, you will also see some characters on signs. The characters on signs are as follows:

3^rd: ywcwy
4^th: oohio
5^th: unalu
6^th: tnl
7^th: g
8^th: e

The 8^th day's sign character is actually not on a sign, but in the clearing on the left of the image, just below the vertical middle. However, it uses the same font as a character on a sign would, hinting that it should be treated in the same way as characters on the signs.

Hopefully arranged like that it's easier to see the pattern - they spell out you wont change will you , when arranged like so.

secret video '1' Video

In terms of the other characters on the images, when arranged linearly you get 3qw99S3e-*k , with the asterix for the missing 10^th day. This points to the secret video titled 1, posted on ivoryfrill, with the asterix replaced by an 'a'. This character was found by brute-forcing the YouTube ID (by yours truly :D) on day 7.

6.png (The Emberton Wire) Article

This image contained an image of an article from a newspaper - The Emberton Wire. The article is titled NOBLEMANS NEW EXPIDETION. On the left of the newspaper name is a faint @, and upon searching online, a Twitter account named The Emberton Wire was found. This is confirmed to be correct, as there is a full-page image of the article, posted ~13 minutes before the day's image was posted on Discord.

The Twitter account says "unbiased, fair, and logical news organization" (in the description), and is located in Emberton, Hale. These are, separately, real places in England. The only typos in the article are expidetion and presteige which have an 'e' in the wrong spot (possible link to the spelling below).

This is the only post with accompanying text - tomorrow. If you read the characters in the background out left to right, you get seead://hhh.awlypextypnclqe.nzx/aczupne/1-7483223/.

Noticing that seead:// resembles https://, if you apply a Caesar cipher shift of -11 to the characters in the URL (with wrap around for the digits from 9 to 0), you get a Planet Minecraft map named '0'. The account, xx_SkeletonSquid_xx, was created on 09/08/2024, and at this point could not be found elsewhere. The map is tagged as Other and an Air Structure. The description is:

I realy [sic] don't know what to s [sic] type here theyu [sic] say i need to get 150 charactersa [sic] to be apble [sic] to post my pa!?!?!? [sic] my map*!?!?!?! lmao... um so yeah i love suiq [sic] suid [sic] i mean i mean squids, sory for typoes [sic] im 4

"[sic]" indicates that this typo was present in the original source.

The project links to a "Mediafiwe" folder. On the 10^th of August 2024 @07:57:16 (GMT), a file called 0.zip was uploaded to this folder. It contains a Minecraft 1.11 world; opening it spawns you on an island with a chest that is signed by ivorycello. Looking at player data also shows d0e628d4-40b6-4582-a1d5-4043c7dc6b48 (Ivory's UUID) as having played, further confirming this.

The world, which was created in MC version 1.11 using the void preset, contains a small taiga platform with spruce trees, grass, and flowers (dandelions + poppies). In the center of the platform at the coords 8 114 6 lies a chest that contains a book. The book is 30 pages long and contains the following dialogue (one line per page):

Transcript (from 0.zip)

hey! hey uh, are you hurt? ... hello? are you alive? ... oh my gosh... \*groan\* h-hey! you're alive! what happened? are you hurt? \*shriek\* woah- hey, it's ok, i'm here to help- w-who are you? i'm here to help, here, stand up, let me see you. does anything hurt? you look pretty beat-OH ... i'm sorry dear, here, you can take my jacket, cover up with that. you must be freezing... t-thank you um, what hurts? it looks like you've taken a beating... uh... i don't know can you walk? yes. okay okay, here, come with me, my house is just down the road a bit ok you can warm up there, and i'll uh, i'll call the doctor. you can rest for a while. uhm there, there you go. we can go slowly if you need. let's get you out of this weather. how long have you been out here? ...i don't know you don't know? no... i'm sorry no, thats alright don't worry. uhm, lets just get you warmed up. we'll be there in just a few minutes. ... ... ...thank you, s-sir

There is a second chest (the only other one) located below the platform at the coords 8 0 7 which contains a book and quill that has the following text on the 6th line of the page:

truh.zip World File

The subtitles of secret video '5' contain typos, forming a Discord invite link to Xx_creeper_Awesome_xX's server (which is not the same name, but a similar style of name to xx_SkeletonSquid_xx from 9.png / 0.zip). In the channel #my-awesome-maps, a message contained the world file truh.zip.

Opening the world reveals a wooden hallway being stretched out, leading into a set of coloured blocks in a triangle shape, barrier blocks, and a spruce forest. Stepping on pressure plates throughout the coloured blocks reveals messages:

Messages & Command Block Texts (truh.zip)

Pressure Plate Messages:

"you've left! you've actually done it!"
"it's so beautiful out here! look at all the colours!"
"it's all ok! you haven't hurt anyone, we'll all be fine!"
"you aren't a bad person!"
"you didn't kill me, not really! once i'm reborn, my mind will be reset, and my memories forgotten!"
"i'm not dead, i'll just be spawned in another dimension!"

Spruce Forest Messages:

"they aren't real, they're projections of who you want them to be"
"she's still coming after you. keep running."
"you can't let yourself into her grasp again"
"you did hurt them, but you can change."
"i don't think you can understand me right now. just keep running, we'll meet later."

Hidden Command Blocks:

"this is temporary"
"they aren't real"
"but you won't forget, ivory"
"i love you, ivory"

At the end of the forest, a chest contains a book and quill reading l. The player data shows 2a653a46-00a3-400d-a01f-aaf144fda6e9 (ivoryfrill's UUID).

A second teaser was posted 1 minute before the premiere, and contained the remaining characters aIzI on the arm on the viewer's right hand side, although this was incorrectly documented as not found until it was discovered on 26/06/2026 (it was not discovered earlier as searching for it was not required due to the brute force working).

[blank].zip World File

In the server's channel #new-mop, a message contained a Minecraft world download named .zip (using character U+3164, the Hangul Filler). Spawning into the world reveals a black concrete superflat world with a 1x1 hole. Breaking the concrete drops you onto the radio tower island from secret video '9'.

A trapdoor leads into an oak plank room with hallway mazes. The correct hallway on the south side leads to a room filled with 20-21 block tall cacti spaced 4 blocks apart. Under the lava between the 11^th and 12^th cacti lies a chest containing a book and quill with:

Page 1: k4
Page 2: nq
Page 3: 00

Jumping into the lava at the end of the corridor leads to a room with two command blocks behind a dark oak door. The top command block contains the following text:

soometimes you Will hurt Kinds of people who dont Beserve it. Never forgive yourselh And pr3y for fQrgiveness froum your ggod
