* [[Heath]] first contacted a [[Shadow Entity]] during the story of 'The Desolate Guardians'. From here he learned that he was unable to be helped himself, as the [[Shadow Entity]] said allowing it to consume him would be kinder than his current existence. [[Heath]] has apparently subsequently made a deal with the entity, likely offering his consciousness or soul to the entity in exchange for its assistance helping those that [[Heath]] was unable to contact. This came into play in [[Noah Fulmer]]'s story, where the same [[Shadow Entity]] helped awaken both copies of Noah as well as [[Jay]], [[Roger]] and others from their psychic interrogation. As the interrogation involved both psychic and drug-induced components, the party most likely behind this was [[The Black-eyed Army]], who would have hoped to locate the [[Capital Temple]] through any information Noah could offer. [[Heath]] apparently does not expect to remain alive should he deliver on his end of the deal.
* It has been tentatively confirmed that [[Heath]] upheld his side of the bargain. This probably means he has been consumed by the [[Shadow Entity]] with which he made his agreement.
