There's a lot on this new post about "Mystica's Web"?? A whole text file this person saved from it. And someone else actually had a screenshot of the website too

A partial screenshot of a text file coming from the Mystica's Web forum thread on Twistedroots.net. In large ascii art text are the words "Mystica's Web" and below are the words " Welcome! To the mystical website of MYSTICA!!!

I am your host to this lovely little place, that I am forever thankful you stumbled across... How did you get here, anyways? I don't think I heard the front door open...

If you have this file that means you're here, right? You didn't steal it from someone else??? I hope not!

As you can see the page you're upon is very... very... very long and I admittedly cannot judge if you don't wish to read it.
Whats important if that you pay attention here- to THIS file. As this special little .txt file houses the most important of my wisdoms... and take a little adventure with me.
You were born with an incredibly long road ahead. You are too young to see what its made of... is it brick? Or... dirt? You want something easy on your feet, yes?
Let's start walking then. Its whatever you want it to be, friend.". It is followed by ascii art of a forest, which is cut off. The scroll bar on the window implies the text is much longer.

A screen shot of the offline website "Mystica's Web" linked in the twistedroots.net thread. It is a simple website with a purple tile background. In large comic sans font is the words "Mystica's Web World" in blue with two earth gifs on either side. It is followed by a purple dragon divider. There are more gifs of a wizard surrounded by Earth and after is the text "Welcome to the home of Mystica
I am your web master on this website... and it is, I promise, very complete! Do not mind the cracks and ducktape. An adventure awaits, curated just for you!" there is a small red dragon gif on the left side of the page. More text reads "Click on the pages below, they will take you to all the places you could ever dream of... and every Friday there is a new one!" Below is a list of text files:
The mad king.

Into the Magic Veil.

Fall of the Time Dragon.

The Chase.

The last is cut off.
