 The Price of a Word. Item Number. SCP-1066 Roo. Object Class. Safe. Special Containment Procedures. All discovered exemplars of SCP-1066 are to be contained in sealed packages and storage cells of Site 7. Access to the facility is permitted to personnel with a second security clearance level or higher. A written permission of at least one employee with a third, redefined fourth security clearance level, is required for conducting experiments with SCP-1066. All experiments should be documented using video and audio devices. Office supply retailers are to be examined for exemplars of SCP-1066-1. Description. Object SCP-1066 is a phenomenon, supposedly an intangible sentient being that is capable of peculiar communication, through the use of SCP-1066-1 and SCP-1066-2. SCP-1066-1 is a sheet of paper used to create envelopes. At present, the foundation possesses 63, redefined, 46 exemplars of SCP-1066-1. The composition of the paper and its physical properties do not have any features or deviations. SCP-1066-2 is an envelope made of SCP-1066-1. Anomalous properties of the object appear only when certain actions are performed. An envelope SCP-1066-2 must be folded manually. Letters must be written by hand, paper, and writing tools may be arbitrary. The language in which the letter is written should be native to the rider. The letter enclosed in the envelope should consist of one sentence including one question, the answer to which is unknown to the rider. The sentence should always begin with a word, hint. After gluing SCP-1066-2, it should be opened by the person who routed. Opening the envelope must necessarily accompany the damage of SCP-1066-2 with hands or other devices, splicing the paper surfaces at the place of gluing will not bring any result. The subject may only ask one question. If the subject does not want to do what is written in the conditions to his or her question but wishes to ask again, the subject must burn the envelope. It is not necessary to destroy the letter itself, it can be saved. If all of these actions are performed, the letter extracted from SCP-1066-2, together with the question, will contain some conditions that must be fulfilled by the subject to obtain an answer to a previously asked question. The conditions always require the subject to disclose some information to certain people in one way or another. If the conditions are fulfilled, the line, see the answer on the inside of the envelope, will appear in the letter, and a detailed answer to the previously asked question will appear on the inside surface of SCP-1066-2. If the message has more text than the surface of SCP-1066-2, required number of sheets of paper identical to SCP-1066-1 will be generated inside SCP-1066-2 with the answer on them. The sheets produced in this way have no abnormal properties and cannot be used as SCP-1066-2. Note. The text that appears using the anomalous effect looks like the handwriting of the subject asking the question and always begins with the phrase, my hint is. Recovery Log. The object came to the attention of the organization after a man came to one of the Foundation cover firms Laundrie, Matiliac, in St. Petersburg on 21 February of 2015 and started to ask the employees of the institution about the SCP Foundation. He was restrained by the security service and taken to the operational base for interrogation. In his testimony, a citizen of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Vege, born in 1986, told about the anomalous object and its properties, thanks to which he was able to get information about the organization. Based on his testimony, it became known that the anomalous properties were detected after he purchased a stack of paper for envelopes. One sheet had a handwritten entry listing the necessary conditions to activate the object properties. After the operational group received all available copies of SCP-1066-1 and SCP-1066-2, Dmitry Vege expressed his desire to work for the organization. The request was accepted and considered. A refusal was received. As the only witness, he was treated by a class BM Nisiak and released. During the next three months, Dmitry Vege was under secret surveillance to establish his involvement in other organizations or associations, but the surveillance did not produce any results and the surveillance was stopped.

After which he lost consciousness and died a few minutes later, autopsy showed a massive cerebral hemorrhage. Apparently, Officer Koval used the key word that activated a cognitohesert that was pre-introduced into his consciousness. Footnote. Whatever is behind the essence of SCP-1066, it is definitely sentient and perhaps all-knowing. But worth mentioning that based on the data obtained during the experiments, we can claim that it answers some questions with bigger desire than others, which consists in the degree of difficulty of required conditions. This can be due to the difficulty of obtaining the requested information from other sources. Dr. Data classified.
