If you level up in Will by reading it:

After having Legion tracts level up your Will stat:

These make a lot more sense now. Half the confusion is from trying to explain a complex philosophy on one sheet of paper and the other half is them trying to convince folks to stop using Eclipse without explaining why.

The whole "living in a false reality and waiting for our eyes to be opened" thing is still pretty unclear, though.

Unlocks ability to get Walk with the Blind if watching Descrambled TV Programs

Drinking an orange juice sample the previous day:

It's hard to hack through the text at first, but there's a bit of a strange buzzing in your brain. Focusing on that, you can all but swim through their strange worldview.
