BY ORDER OF THE OVERSEER COUNCIL

All Foundation personnel are required to heed this warning. This message takes priority over all other containment protocols and procedures.

WARNING: A ZK-CLASS "REALITY-FAILURE" SCENARIO IS IMMINENT DUE TO SCP-001 ACTIVITY

Attention all personnel of the SCP Foundation:

Effective immediately, all information regarding SCP-001 is declassified. All efforts to maintain the Veil are to cease, and resources directed towards containment of SCP-001. Containment Procedures for Safe-Class and non-hostile Euclid-Class objects are no longer considered a priority, and are to cease so that all personnel may focus on SCP-001. All Thaumiel-Class objects reserved for use in the event of an XK-Class "End-of-the-World" Scenario are to be deployed immediately. All Mobile, Stationary, and Special Task Forces are being moved to "active" status. All emergency treaties and cease-fires with Groups of Interest 004 (Church of the Broken God), 011 (Global Occult Coalition), 012 (Marshall Carter and Dark), 019 (Serpent's Hand), and 102 (Unusual Incidents Unit) are now in effect and must be observed by Foundation personnel. For specific instructions staff are advised to contact their supervisors, who will receive detailed information from Site-01.

Four hours ago, the O5 Council received credible information that confirmed the following:

• An SCP-001 instance ("Author-Entity") has breached reality and entered the Noosphere.

• The instance is making preparations to initiate a ZK-Class "Reality-Failure" Scenario.

• These preparations cannot conclude without the presence of 2 other SCP-001 instances.

• There is a >95% chance of 2 additional instances appearing within the next 24 hours.

• There is a possibility that Foundation intervention can delay or suspend these preparations.

The O5 Council determined this threat to be both universal in scope and existential in severity. By unanimous vote, the O5 Council has declared that the universe is in a state of emergency. Judgement day has arrived everyone. I don't know what will happen, but I do know this: We will not go quietly.
