The Branch
"Did the Knowledge do its job?"
"Yes, so it seems. They now know more about us."
"Very well. Then the Splendour can now get to work, she should extinguish the 12th. The Understanding and I will take care of the 9th."
"Should we report it to the Crown?"
"Yes, you can do that. Take Vivyan and Adamaris with you, they'll help."
"I will immediately deliver the message to the Crown and fulfill my duty."
"Now go, my branch. The branches of the jewel are with you, the leaves shall stand by you. The fruits will pave your way."
"Did you hear about DE12?"
"Yeah, I did. Completely exterminated, right?"
"That's right. The O4-Council first planned on suppressing the news, but that didn't work out, as you can probably realize."
"What the hell even caused that massacre?"
"No fucking idea."
"I heard something about a woman with a suitcase, or something like that."
"An SCP?"
"Dunno, but it's not a documented SCP… not at the moment."
"Fucking shit."
"I think I'll ask for a transfer into the archive, what about you?"
"…I don't know. I already asked for a transfer once."
"I'll try to put in a good word for you."
"Thanks, man, I really appreciate it."
The Stem
"My Crown, I bring a message."
"You are allowed to speak, my Branch."
"Splendour will attack the 12th. The Wisdom and Understanding will go for the 9th—"
"The 9th? We talked about how we will attack the 9th only if they know more about us."
"That's right, my Stem. The Knowledge already fulfilled his task."
"Knowledge? Daath is really back?"
"Yes, my Stem."
"Good to hear. Wisdom and Understanding shall proceed with their actions."
"Understood, my Stem."
"Then go, my Branch."
"SECURITY WARNING: PROCEEDING WITH EVAC OF SITE-DE9. ALL PERSONNEL, PLEASE REFER TO EVAC-POINT P13."
"What?"
"What's happening?"
"How the hell am I supposed to know?"
"Why are you looking at me?"
"What? What do you mean?"
"I don't want to fucking die yet!"
"Calm down, everyone. You too, Harnel. You have to keep your cal—"
"Holy shit! DR. WOLFF! Quick, everyone get out of here! NOW!"
"What is that?! What the hell is that?!"
"Don't look behind you, just run!"
The Fruits and the Leaves
"My leaf, Vivyan, call your servants."
"Yes, my Branch. The Fruits Elpidium and Paciano are already on their way."
"Good. Adamaris, your turn."
"Yes, my Branch."
"Possess only one. Only a single one. We mustn't overdo it, we mustn't bring any unnecessary suffering to this world."
"I understand, my Branch. A single Crown-Fruit should be enough, I think."
"Yes. It will suffice."
"Squad Romeo, please come in. Over."
"Command, this is Romeo. Over."
"Romeo, report."
"Roger. No sightings of SCP-███-DE and Object-1. Object-2 is currently in room N519. Over."
"Roger. Stay put for SCP-███-DE. Command out."
"Squad Berta here. Command, please come in. Over."
"Command here. Over."
"SCP-███-DE sighted. Main gate H2."
"Roger. Fall back and wait for further instructions. Command out."
