OPERATION SUMMARY

Operation Designation NEWTONS PROCLAMATION

Tasking Division (REDACTED)

Field Operative Operative Blackwood

Primary Location Foundation Data Archive Annex in the European Sector and off site rendezvous point in the Adriatic Riviera

Mission Type Counter-espionage investigation and intelligence recovery

1. Objective

A classified physics memo titled Newtons Proclamation appeared on an internal research board for exactly eight seconds before auto deletion. The text referenced unreleased gravitation data and contained an embedded cipher that pinged an outside address traced to a known broker linked with multiple Groups of Interest. Blackwood was assigned to

identify the author of the proclamation

determine the scope of the data leak

neutralise any involved traitors and recover stolen research

2. Cover Identity

Operative Alias Legend

Blackwood Marcello Vance Independent venture capitalist seeking proprietary energy technology

Appearance

Midnight tailored suit with open collar white shirt and pocket square. No visible weapons. Pen-sized faraday spool and palmtop key injector concealed in jacket lining.

3. Chronology of Events

09:17 hours

Blackwood arrived at the Archive Annex presenting an urgent acquisition order from Central Analytics. He reviewed access logs and isolated an entry badge belonging to Dr Lucia Ferris a senior theoretical physicist with prior ties to graviton studies.

09:46 hours

Surveillance replay showed Ferris uploading Newtons Proclamation from a data cubicle then wiping the terminal. She departed carrying a slim courier case.

11:03 hours

Financial trace of Ferris revealed a rapid wire transfer to a shell account. The account owner was linked to the Adriatic Riviera conference for exotic energy buyers scheduled that evening.

19:10 hours

Blackwood infiltrated the seaside conference using the Marcello Vance persona. He located Ferris meeting with Anton Rask an independent broker confirmed to have brokered anomalous weapon sales to Chaos Insurgency cells.

Recorded Exchange

Ferris asked for assurance of safe passage once the deal closed. Rask replied that the proclamation had already generated interest from multiple patrons and her value would last as long as her silence. Blackwood approached the pair under the pretext of offering a higher bid.

19:27 hours

During a private demonstration Ferris revealed a pocket drive containing raw equations for controlled singularity anchoring. Blackwood deployed the faraday spool disabling local transmitters and locking the room. He secured the drive and placed Rask under restraint. Ferris attempted to swallow a cyanide micro-ampule but Blackwood applied a preloaded anti cholinesterase autoinjector preventing cardiac arrest.

19:42 hours

Foundation clean team arrived posing as coastal security. Both Ferris and Rask were extracted for interrogation. Conference guests believed the incident an insurance fraud sting.

4. Results

Asset Status

Dr Lucia Ferris In Foundation custody awaiting tribunal

Anton Rask In custody, cooperative after sedation

Singularity data drive Recovered intact

Newtons Proclamation cipher Decoded and purged from external nodes

Exposure Zero. Cover identities remained uncompromised

5. Assessment

Ferris acted alone inside Foundation walls, motivated by financial pressure and ideological disillusionment after a denied promotion. She crafted Newtons Proclamation as both lure and proof of possession. Blackwood’s infiltration exploited her greed, turning the auction against itself.

Operative fear or hesitation was minimal, though internal logs note heightened vigilance tied to recent mirror related trauma. Blackwood recognised the conference décor used mirrored pillars and he positioned himself to avoid direct reflection lines for the duration of the negotiation.

Blackwood private log

"I keep seeing doors in every polished surface. I remind myself they only open if I let them."

Captain Secretary comment

"The traitor wanted the laws of gravity to be optional. Instead she learned about consequences. And Blackwood keeps proving he knows which way the weight will fall."
