The Zeiderzee was closed by the damn as(whatver it is found in the words, military code) forming the Ijsselmeer which is the name of the next site and im lost from there but there is more hexadecimal to translate.
"Chasing Sheep is Best Left to Shepherds is derived from a movement in King Arthur and has been turned into one such fake chacone -though it falls into 5 distinct sections, each with a different tempo. Though highly Purcellian in feel it is based on a harmonic sequence very close to rock ‘n’ roll."
i will not post the spoiler for the pass/user... but it's *REALLY* not explained by that exerpt... just thought it was nice how it was related to "King Arthur" (as with the first)...
the hotel is lame, no source or nothing to work from...
Yeah, I know, I hate the hotel. I keep looking for a link to somewhere else other than that stupid dark room, which leads to the stupid treeface, which I think is a dead end.
Dammit, I wanna find the Hypercium Performantium thingy!

Considering that this puzzle/riddle is way more complex than just what you can access via thisisnotporn.com and game FAQ's has a >20 page topic that is pretty much comunally determined to solving it, I would guess that helping eachother out probably won't hurt in this instance.
Yeah, yeah. But dont give away the whole thing all at once, because once you know how to get to the end, you can get to the end, but if you didnt figure it out yourself, you won't "get it."

The stuff that starts off "hebban olla..." is Dutch, and it appears to be an excerpt from some really old paper that is apparently important.
Problem: I don't know Dutch, and I can't find any pages that show what this junk means in English. Please help me.
PS: Does the radio code sound file mean anything, or is it a red herring?
PPS: I found out why I can't find a translation. It's Old Dutch.

Edit edit: I'm now at "Hide your Sorrows". Boy, the source on that one...
I got the "CuriosityKilledTheCat" password straight out of the gamefaqs thread. I have <i>no idea</i> where they got it from.
The "Master and Betrayer" password is apparently the one even they are stuck at. After doing a tiny amount of research on St. John, I toyed with various arrangements of names of religious figures, including Jesus and Judas. I don't really know much about that sort of stuff, so if it's along those lines, I'm unlikely to make any headway. After thinking about some other things, especially the effects of the drug in question, I thought maybe it was a Dune reference, and plugged in various permutations of mind and fear, going for some kind of blend between the Bene Gesserit litany against fear, and that other one the Mentats say. This also failed miserably.

That old fishing sea,
The Faeiries stole,
The boy of Marken
The old name of the site of the boy's disappearance is the name of the place you must go.
