Excerpt from Security Officer's Log

SA Colony 1-5: Research and Development

September 24th, 21??

Today marks the 8th year anniversary of our arrival on Senopia. Well, it's officially known as Planet 564, but we all refer to it as Senopia, as named by the scientists who first discovered it. Most of the people on this colony still miss Earth, but as everyone knows, there was nothing left for us there. It was an empty husk when we left it. I try to remember it like it was in the documentaries of old, but I mostly just remember the toxic air and barren land.

Today is a day of celebration, but it's one of the busiest days of the year for my department. The Codex Realm gets extra traffic on this day as some people love to throw crazy parties that are not physically possible in the real world. My job is to make sure that everyone is safe and there are no misdemeanours, both in the real world and the digital world.

I have noticed something worrying though. There have been some weird glitches in the Realm lately. I've spoken to my superiors and the maintainers of the Realm (situated on SA Colony 1-1) but they have told me, in no uncertain terms, that I am to leave it alone. They obviously don't know me, because I cannot and will not leave it alone. I've seen to the safety of the South African inhabitants since we left earth on the lifeboat and I'm not about to let a glitch get in the way of that. Hmm, maybe Thato can help? He understands the Codex Realm better than anyone. Also, he owes me.
