ATLESIAN MILITARY ARCHIVE FILE: #011785

Following an anonymous tip given to Capt. Albus Hawthorn of the Airfleet, a contingent of the military was sent to investigate a ruin on the other side of the White Sea with curious, Grimm-repelling properties. This contingent was led by Lieutenant James Ironwood.

Despite the lack of any sign of habitation for some considerable length of time, the soldiers found a child, apparently abandoned with little more than a letter of explanation. The ruin was likely, given the presence of an altar, a temple. As to which deity the ruin was dedicated to remains unknown.

The Girl from the ruin, Cinder Fall, was placed in the care of Archivist Casper Schwartz of our own Military Archive, who also found the girl. Luna Fall, the girl's apparent mother, was placed on various watchlists, although any chance of actually capturing her are likely slim without the ability to correctly identify her.

Attempts to replicate, or in fact even identify the ruins Grimm-repelling properties using the samples taken have thus far proven fruitless, despite the thorough attempts by the Science Bureau.

There is however, another more prominent issue that this issue throws up. That being the apparent age of the ruin. If the investigation is correct, the ruin would likely have been constructed around 3500BW at the latest.

This of course poses an issue. It is, after all, accepted knowledge that Solitas was only discovered in 300BW, and the first permanent settlements only founded in the early 280BW's. Multiple tests have of course been conducted, and all say more or less the same thing.

This ruin is an anomaly. Until we know more, its existence is to be kept from the general population. Such a change in accepted knowledge is unlikely to be taken well on a cultural level.
