INTRODUCTION

As its name suggests, The universe of the Spiritual Division revolves around a unit in the Foundation named the Spiritual Division. However, the timeline does not stop there. The Spiritual Division serves as a viewpoint to introduce readers to the universe bearing its name. It is also the knot where different stories converge.

The Spiritual Division is a department of Site-75-VN. This subordination is primarily administrative, as the Division operates independently in practice. Their main mission is to research a collapsed anomalous organization known as Bureau of Anomaly Surveillance1, thereby gaining a deeper understanding of the history of Vietnam’s anomalous community, while also gaining more experiences and knowledge.

HISTORY

Humanity has known about anomalies since the dawn of time. As an inevitable part of history, feudal dynasties had to find ways to deal with them and keep them away from the public. This is the foundation for the formation of anomalous agencies under the imperial court, as well as clans and communities of sorcerers scattered across the country.

The Bureau of Anomaly Surveillance, established in 1428 during the Initial Lê dynasty, was the most prominent amongst the agencies. It operated as an SCP Foundation in feudal time, containing anomalies, monitoring sorcerer clans, subjugating and terminating individuals with reality-bending ability (referred to as Lục Huyết).2

However, as history unfolded, in 1527, the Mạc dynasty took over the Initial Lê dynasty and the Bureau of Anomaly Surveillance chose to follow the new ruler. Unfortunately, after over just half a century, this new dynasty was overthrown by forces claiming loyalty to the Lê dynasty. During the following period, whether under the reign of Revival Lê emperors or the Trịnh and Nguyễn lords, the Bureau of Anomaly Surveillance was seen as traitors and was subjected to intense suppression. This suppression quickly spread to the entire anomalous community in Vietnam.

By the late 18th century, the Bureau of Anomaly Surveillance had almost disappeared from history. While the majority of the anomalous community fled to NX-59-VN - District Zero, a small portion blended into society as clans of sorcerers.

It was not until the early 20th century that the Foundation first appeared in Vietnam. As an organization specializing in the containment of anomalies, the Foundation performed its duty as it usually did in other parts of the world and seemed to have achieved initial success…

… until the events related to SCP-101-VN occurred in late 2003, causing the Foundation to take notice of the complexity and historical depth of Vietnam’s anomalous world. This led to the establishment of the Spiritual Division and its missions.
