Briefing

Greetings, Special Agent.

Recently an expedition in Brazil has found a strange tablet. It seems to be cursed, which is something obviously ridiculous to the untrained eye. However, we know better about the forces that may be.

The researchers went mad after too much contact with the tablet. A cleanup team from the CIA has intervened and taken them out of commission. They are now asking us to translate the tablet. Given the expertise in your team regarding… strange things, this would be the perfect job for you.

As always, Special Agent, the contract is yours, if you choose to accept.
