"Okay we have some questions to ask you," the blank faced...'people' asked.

"Um, do I have any choice? You grabbed me, blindfolded me, and brought me...here! Mon Day motioned disdainfully and belligerently with its letters at the room.

"You do not seem to understand your situation."

"I have rights, and you can't do this to me without a legal reason!" Mon shouted at the 'people'.

Two of the blank faced 'people' looked briefly at each other--though since they had no faces, it was hard to tell-- then looked back at Mon. "Legal? Why do you presume to think with everything that has happened to you today, that we would need to do what we are doing as, 'legal'?"

This made Mon pause. It looked passed the blinding lights and it noticed that this did not seem like a Grammar Police interrogation room and instead it was merely some nondescript room that could be anywhere. Its ink was now turning cold in its font. "Who...who are you?"

"We do not exist. Nobody notices or cares to see the Spaces. The Words who live on this world of pages only go about their lives living in their paragraphs and only caring what part of the neighborhood their sentence is in. Nobody looks at what is between everything."

Mon now knew it was in serious trouble for what it saw, but... Come on, 'The Spaces'? That's just myth and legends. This can't be real. They're just some rival gang trying to scare me. "What're you going to do? I'll never rat out my friends for any reason, even if you torture me."

"Torture?" They actually sounded surprised to hear that. "No we have a much easier method for words who do not cooperate."

The two 'blanks' separated as a third one came in and laid an object on the table in front of Mon. Mon's font tried to shrink away from the...thing, on the table as it now knew that the myth was real and they were not pretending one bit!

"You see," the 'Space' said while pointing at the 'device', "we only have to turn you into one of us with this Backspace Key."

Well.

Of all the Oasis theories, I wasn't expecting this.

This actually explains a lot.

So she sets things on fire by blasting them from the sky?

Also there's a typo, I think Pete meant cannon, not canon.

Okay, that is why he wanted her to burn things. Triangulation on the where the 'firestarter cannon' was shooting from in space.

My mind started playing "The Blue Danube" when I saw the new space station background with moving layers

Huh...what...

Yeah...never thought of this one.
Well the fire starting and lame triangles make sense now.

Okay. Fire Starting Cannon from Space was not all my reaction to the reveal, but I think any more is definitely spec.

WHAT-THE WHAAAAT?

Wow. Pete does surprises like no one else. I guess it's hardly spec to say one S in Oasis' name stands for Space.

So that is how she sets things on fire. Amazing. And she seems way more technological than I ever thought, rather than spiritual.

Know thyself - that is the key to all this. Oasis is Earth's only hope at this point! Which is horrific.

Wow, nice satellite image (I mean, image of a satellite) at the top of the page. And it moves when you scroll down.

We still don't know what's in the satellite though.

Sweet jumping Jehoshaphat! Pete, you absolute madman!

I'm somehow getting portal vibes from this.

Holy Smokes!!! I wasn't expecting this. Wow, but yea looking back it does make sense. Especially since we were told that she didn't have any real supernatural powers.
(edit: Also to Pete, I think you did a really nice job on the satellite background thing at the top of the page. It's really cool!)

Looks like Torg was right all along about [SPEC - G].
