Stories are powerful things (Glossary)

Some people pointed out that having this glossary on its original entry kind of broke the magic of the story, so I'm putting it on a separate post. This explains some terms used in the story, if you need some more information, and provides links to the original content. Enjoy :)

SCP Foundation: Operating clandestine and worldwide, the Foundation is tasked with containing anomalous objects, entities, and phenomena. These anomalies pose a significant threat to global security by threatening either physical or psychological harm.

The Foundation operates to maintain normalcy, so that the worldwide civilian population can live and go on with their daily lives without fear, mistrust, or doubt in their personal beliefs, and to maintain human independence from extraterrestrial, extradimensional, and other extranormal influence. Each one of these contained anomalies is called and SCP, pronounced "skip", with a numerical designation afterwards.

Think Men-in-black, but with every avenue instead of just aliens. Also darker.

SCP-239: SCP-239 is an 8 year old Icelandic girl who can rewrite reality at will. The thing is, she doesn't know that, and the Foundation isn't very keen on her finding out, so they've told her that she is a witch and can do spells, but only those she properly learns and has in her spellbook. Therefore, her containment protocols are just a web of lies forged so she doesn't know what she can truly do.

When she started trying other things, they put her in a coma so she couldn't experiment. That's how fuzzy and lovely the Foundation is. Girl starting to give us trouble? Coma.

Church of the Broken God: Cult of maniacs who want to bring back their God, said to be "broken" into pieces. Some of those pieces are in custody of the Foundation, and are classified as SCPs. Has a lot to do with clockwork, cogs, gears, metal, etc. They constantly try to bring the pieces back.

Dr. Gears: Narrator of the story, he was the one who tricked the child into sleep and a coma, while saving her from being killed. He has almost no emotional response to anything, think uberSpock. This story is still in the making, but I wanted to portray him broken after years of struggle.

Dr. Clef: Friendly cameo from the SCP Foundation. Always nice to have him around.
