"Welcome, authorized personnel. Please select the file you want to view. ”
After passing through a number of clearance reviews, the future finally saw the specific appearance of SCP-001.
Perhaps this statement is not quite true.
Because in front of him, there are more than a dozen documents to choose from.
Codename: Jonathan Ball - Volume
Codename: Dr. Gears - Prototype
Codename: Dr. Clef - Gatekeeper
Code name:......
Are these all 001s?
In the usual style of Foundation archives, the last word should be the name of the object, then the ...... after this codename
Is it a person's name?
Or rather, the author's name?
In particular, the future is impressed by a third name, Dr. Clef, the author of several Foundation projects, and whose name frequently appears in various Foundation stories and side creations.
He appears to be a high-ranking researcher within the Foundation.
Written by a dozen different authors...... It's all 001?
I don't want to think so much, just watch them one by one.
Anyway, with a level 5 license in hand, there is no verification that can't be passed!
In fact, as the future has guessed, there are more than a dozen projects here, all of which are 001.
The nine-story platform starts from the soil.
In that world, the existence and setting of the SCP Foundation originated with the original SCP-001.
As the first number in Series I., 001 is bound to be extraordinary.
The creation of Project 001 also requires the function of laying the main line and foundation of the Foundation.
So now the question arises -
What is the main thread of the Foundation?
Does the Foundation really have an exact world core setting?
Obviously, no.
Nothing else, collective creation.
As a result, each author has their own set of Foundation origins in mind.
I think the anomaly originated from the cascading collapse of reality in parallel time and space, and you think that the existence of the Foundation itself represents an anomalous effect, and he also wondered if there is a difference in the form of the existence of the Foundation across different worldlines......
Even the proposition of the birth of mankind can be found in the archival series at least ten, completely different categories of explanations.
Not to mention the Foundation's origin conjecture.
In the absence of convincing anyone and the inability to unify their ideas, and in order to ensure the mystery and uncertainty of the Foundation itself, SCP-001 has been given an "undecrypted" setting.
i.e. multiple or zero copies of a forged cover-up document, stored alongside multiple or one genuine 001 document, and all protected by memetic erasure drugs.
In a way, this can be understood as-
"We don't know which of these 001s is real, so you can believe which one is pleasing to the eye. ”
In the future, I don't know which one is pleasing to the eye.
The first Proposition 001 "data volume" was a pretty standard origin setting.
This is a simply bound document, and when someone opens it and reads it, they will see a copy of the containment object file.
First-time readers saw the file of 002, and then people discovered the entity of 002.
The next person to read saw the file of SCP-003, and they also discovered the existence of the SCP-003 entity shortly after.
And so on.
It is currently unclear to the Foundation that the causal relationship between the scrolls and other SCP objects: was it the act of reading the scrolls that led to the creation of the anomalies, or was it just that the scrolls were already there, but that the scrolls had some kind of power to foreshadow the Foundation's discovery of them?
I don't know, but at least now, no one dares to go through this mediocre document.
The second "archetype" depicts a "demon" with a strange appearance that creates singularities to teleport and defend against.
To be honest, the future hasn't found much out of it enough to make it a highlight of 001.
But this is indeed 001.
Is there any information that he doesn't know yet?
Let's take a look at it first.
The third proposal, "Gatekeepers," is distinctly Abrahamic – also known as the apocalyptic religion, which is the collective name for the world's three major monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and its derivatives.
This file describes the birth of the Foundation as following the actions of an angel who was the gatekeeper of the Garden of Eden.
Although the strong creationist flavor of the article is a little uncomfortable for the future, the file is really well written, and it is organically integrated with many other projects involving the Abrahamic lineage.
Sure enough, religion is not without benefits, for example, it is very suitable for literary creation!
The remaining 001 files vary in length and style.
The future hurts my head.
After all, the number of archives he had read was still insufficient, and he could not understand some of the narratives in these documents.
What exactly is a meme?
I'll have to wait a while to check the encyclopedia......
How did the UIU archives end up in the Foundation's database?
Which organization is the UIU......
Oh, and when I think of it, it's "the FBI's office in charge of investigating anomalous things", and it's a really hard name to remember!
What does the item class Taumiel mean when it appears in the "children" proposal?
He knew that Safe was a "safe" class that could be effectively contained, and would not pose a threat as long as it was not moved.
He also knew that Euclid was a "Euclid" class that could breach containment and pose an unpredictable threat to humanity.
He also knew that Keter was the "Crown" class that would be a major threat to humanity and the world in the event of a containment breach.
But who knows what rank Taumiel is?
It doesn't say anything in the employee handbook!
In the future, I have to turn to the almighty network to find out the original meaning of the word.
I don't know if I don't check the results, and I'm shocked when I check it.
Keter said that it meant "crown", but it was actually the first essentia on the Kabbalah tree of life, the highest essentia that represented "the source of creation, pure existence, and life force".
And when it comes to the Kabbalah Tree of Life, it is much more famous.
It is the occult core symbol of Judaism and represents the path of the sword of fire from man to god.
Because the Kabbalah's system is so complete – and so high – it is widely used as material for works on religious subjects.
Thaumiel, on the other hand, is the first essentia on the tree of inverse life, corresponding to Keter, which means "Twins of God" in Hebrew.
In the teachings of the Kabbalah, the reverse of the Tree of Life (Qliphth) is the dark side of the Tree of Life (Kabbalah), and the two are one and the same.
When the essentia on the Kabbalah Tree of Life is unbalanced with each other, the resulting forces of chaos constitute the Tree of Reverse Life.
So to speak:
Keter represents pure divinity, the identity of God in a religious sense;
Taumiel corresponds to the dark side of Keter, symbolizing duality and struggle.
So on a certain level, we can directly understand Taumiel as anti-Keter.
Now, the Foundation names dangerous goods that are deeply hostile to humanity after Keter, which represents brilliance and godhood.
The future will have to think deeply about the intentions.
Such a hierarchical naming cannot be pulled out casually, and must have its purpose.
Presumably alluding to the opposition between God and man?
After all, the Foundation is always on the side of humanity.
It doesn't matter if the enemies ahead are gods or demons, they are just "inhuman anomalies" that may pose a threat to humanity.
