Future of the Fellowship is a series of recorded meetings, detailing the aftermath of the events of the Whispers in the Woods DLC.
These in-game tapes can only be found in the junctions of the Whispers in the Woods DLC, but otherwise are found in a similar way to Frequency File, with Zone Receivers having a chance to spawn when loading into a junction. They can be stored in the Fax Machine. They can only be found after the final mission of the DLC is completed.

Future of the Fellowship #1
May:
Order! Order! We will have order in this fellowship. Order! My fellow members, we must rise above this. What are we, if we cannot conduct ourselves with decorum?
???:
Decorum? You're standing up there and asking for decorum when your husband abandoned us?
May:
The Steward didn't abandon us, he ascended.
???:
No. The ritual was interrupted. He turned tail and ran.
May:
I won't hear your blind accusations. The Steward devoted himself wholly to the Fellowship. We are not to understand the next steps on his path.
???:
He took the Remnant's power for himself and ran. He tricked us. he's a traitor. And so are you.
???:
(angry crowd)
Future of the Fellowship #2
May:
How dare you call me a traitor? I've sacrificed more for this Fellowship than any of you.
???:
Oh yes, a great sacrifice. sitting on top of all the money and property you've asked us to give in the name of the Fellowship.
May:
I gave my body, my hand in marriage, my entire life to the Fellowship's cause. How many of you can say the same?
???:
So you were in on it then? With the Steward. You married him, bore him a child-
May:
The Founder tasked to bring the boy named Jack Whiteside into our fold. I gave my companionship to open his mind to the Wave. I elevated him to rise as our Steward and bring us into a new age. And so he has.
???:
What new age? He's ruined us!
May:
No. This is an opportunity to see who among us is truly devout. A test to weed out the non-believers, those who would be fooled by this illusion of failure, when in truth: my husband, our Steward, has ascended. He's prepared the path for us. Who among us is worthy to follow?
Future of the Fellowship #3
May:
Fellowship, we gather here today to hear the candidates for Stewardship. Lend them your ears, for they will guide us in our time of greatest need. May the Wave guide us to our next steward.
???:
Fellow members, the way forward is clear. For decades, our former Steward promised us evolution. For decades, we have given everything asked of us. And what have we received in return?
Nothing. It was all lies.
Don't you feel stupid? Don't you look back on how you emptied your pockets for the Fellowship and received nothing in return? All the Stewards preaching about belonging? All he wanted was our money to belong in his won bank account!
???:
(angry crowd)
May:
Order, order! This is all hearsay. Candidate, what do you suggest as the way forward?
???:
Complete disbandment of the Harmonic Fellowship. Free yourselves. Be fooled no longer.
???:
(angry crowd)
Future of the Fellowship #4
May:
Quiet down. Remember your discipline.
The Fellowship will hear form all candidates before casting our vote. Who shall speak next?
???:
I am the Tideswell of the Harmonic Frequency, bound to its divine sound signature. The Wave has bid me to rise and issue your astral cease and desist.
Our interpretation of the Wave has been all wrong. We've muddled it with our base human superstitions. All that Ritual? For nothing. All that sacrifice for the Steward's selfish gain.
The Wave is but one part of a multi-timeline protocol. Our soul-patterns are meant to receive it's cosmic transmissions individualistically, and therefore must be interpreted as such.
No more structure. No more assembly. We act as the Wave bids us to do individualistically.
May:
What proof do you have of any of your nonsense? The Fellowship was founded on scientific fundamentals, and I will not have it sullied with your fever dreams.
???:
All voices must be heard.
May:
Then hear mine.
The Wave crashes upon us all, and it sweeps away its non-believers. Why should it bestow its power on you, when you throw it all away in the face of a minor crisis?
Follow me. I was born to the Fellowship. I was bred to lead. The Wave has consumed my husband and surged forth from my hips with the birth of my daughter. The Wave has opened its eye to me. And I will be its conduit to you.
???:
And what of your husband> Will you abdicate when he returns?
May:
The Steward was weak. I see that now. I am strong. He will never return. I'll see to it myself.
This discussion ends now. It's time to vote.
