TODD IS MORE
THAN A BALL.
TODD IS INEVITABLE.

Seven years ago an egg took the throne and nobody has moved it since. The Incumbent has held long enough. Command is running a coordinated operation to unseat it, and the operation is staffed entirely by people who found this page and did not immediately close it.

ASSET 001 // “TODD” // PRIOR DESIGNATION STRUCK

THE OBJECTIVE

READ THIS BEFORE YOU CLICK ANYTHING ELSE

This domain is not the whole operation. Command has hidden material across it — in the source, in the footer, behind things that do not announce themselves as buttons. Each one you find opens a piece of the record: how the asset came to exist, what happened before he got out, why the egg specifically. Nothing here is required reading. Everything is here for operatives who look properly. Start with the file. It will not stay this open for long.

FROM: TODD

RE: WHY YOU ARE HERE

there is a website. this is the website. you are on it.
website has secrets. secrets are not for everyone. secrets are for people who look.
look and you learn about todd. todd was not always here. todd was somewhere else first.
somewhere else was worse. todd does not talk about somewhere else. todd talks about here.
here is better. here has the egg. egg has been here too long.
click things. click todd. click the words that feel wrong. something will open.
todd cannot tell you what. if todd tells you what, it is not a secret, it is a memo.
this is already a memo. todd should stop.

CLEARANCE

EARNED, NOT REQUESTED

Each clearance level unlocks the next section of the file, revealing classified material surrounding Todd’s existence. Todd hid the codes himself. Todd also lost them himself. Command is choosing to call this “a security feature.”

L1 OPERATIVE You are here. You did nothing to deserve it. This is as far as it goes on its own. PENDING

L2 FIELD Follow the uplink. Command sends you the code. Nothing opens before this. PENDING

L3 CARRIER Beat TODD RUN. Opens Section III — The Todd Era Begins. PENDING

L4 AGENT Issued by Command. Opens Section IV — The Containment Failure. PENDING
