3) A Time Breach appears in a museum vault. First instinct? Probe the breach
→ Map edges, test limits.
Fun fact: CERN physicists routinely run mock “time breach” drills for data corruption. Log everything
→ Timestamps or it didn’t happen.
Fun fact: Samuel Pepys’ diaries survived plague, fire, and censorship, because he wrote in code. Secure the artifacts
→ Meaning first, then mystery.
Fun fact: The Rosetta Stone was rediscovered accidentally during fort repairs. Stabilize the room
