TIDAL VORTEX OPERATION LOG: 03/21/1944
An excerpt from Captain Peter Vysparov's OPERATION: TIDAL VORTEX files.
Two years ago, Vexsys put in a FOIA Request to try to obtain records pertaining to the accomplishments of the infamous Captain Peter Vysparov during World War II. After COVID-19, we did not expect to receive a response at all. Two weeks ago, we received an official response to our request stating that no information about such a captain seems to exist at all. We had given up hope of ever getting to the bottom of Vysparov’s operations in Medan. However, ten days ago we received this letter at Vexsys HQ:
11/14/K-34
Boss,Your search for information regarding Vysparov’s work in East Sumatra in order to test the updated CCS is unnecessary. Rest assured, all documentation of Vysparov’s life has been expunged in accordance with sub-guideline HTCH-46 of the updated ISO 292901 of K-334. If you wanted access to what we have, you should’ve just come down to the archives. You’re in luck though, because I saved you the trouble. The attached document is the only one in our records dated between February 14th, K-44 and May 1st, K-44. Looks like a schedule or log, but the commentary is encoded.
Attached to the letter was a typed document that followed the description in the letter. Andie Waahl was in charge of decrypting the document, and she worked tirelessly over the past week to piece it together. While some words were corrupted by the age of the document, the messages are left mostly in-tact and human-readable. We can only guess whether or not other pages of this document are hidden somewhere, waiting to be uncovered in the present. Here is the text in full:
TIDAL VORTEX 3/21/44
0333: Awoken by Bambi. One of her girls received CMDR Yoshi Aimoto’s essence. $*%& is to break the mirror tonight.

1233: Area scrubbed.
1611: Prelim. rites begun. Bambi $*#& she only has two layers left.
1800: Mirror brought in. Essence-bearer received ritual bath.
2052: Mirror anointed. First calls recited.
2340: Ritual concluded. Bambi had to be $(#*#*($& after to calm her down. Everyone seems tense.
2351: Bambi came to but her presence has changed. She says she has one layer left, then she can’t help anymore.
If I understand you correctly, the result of your FOIA request, which took two years to be processed and came out negative, was somehow intercepted by this subject who then came out of woods with information of his own? Not questioning the information, mind you, just the timing...
