Chapter 9 - KAC-834: The Cracked Angel

File ID: KAC-834

Designation: "The Cracked Angel"

Threat Level: Category 2 (National Threat)

Status: Contained (Temporarily)

Discovering Officer: Researcher 551

World of Origin: "Heaven"

[DESCRIPTION]

KAC-834 is a winged humanoid entity measuring approximately 2.9 meters in height. Its form resembles traditional depictions of an angelic being, but its body is covered in deep luminous fractures that glow with a steady internal radiance. These fissures emit soft chorionic light, harmonic distortions, and low-level conceptual leakage.

The entity appears to be in a constant state of cracking, as though something far greater than its current shape is trying to break through.

It is believed that KAC-834 descended from "Heaven" untold years ago, though its own recollection is incomplete and fragmented— suggesting damage not only to its form, but its identity.

[BEHAVIOUR]

KAC-834 is not hostile by default, nor does it exhibit predatory instincts. It spends long periods in stillness, kneeling, or bowed in silence, as if praying or mourning. However, it responds intensely to human suffering, especially grief, guilt, and despair. It has been observed gently touching those who weep, resulting in partial emotional stabilization.

It may sing in an unknown tonal system that reduces suicidal ideation or emotional collapse. In rare events, it attempts to repair broken objects, even ones it does not understand— suggesting its nature is inherently restorative.

But the cracks are dangerous. Severe stimuli like gunfire, betrayal, blasphemy, or witnessing cruelty cause the fractures to widen, resulting in:

Spatial distortion

Sudden drops in temperature

Localized gravitational anomalies

Light emission capable of burning holes into fabric, walls, or memory itself.

[CONTAINMENT ATTEMPT]

The entity is housed in a cathedral-like chamber, 18m in height, lined in non-reflective auric stone. A constant harmonic resonance field is maintained to prevent further cracking. No personnel may speak words of divine judgment, damnation, or "fall" in proximity to KAC-834. Emotional state of all personnel entering the chamber is screened.

[FINAL NEUTRALIZATION]

Neutralization is not advised.

[NOTES BY Director Halvorsen]

"This is not a monster. It is not a threat in the usual sense. It is a being that cannot fully exist here, and every second it remains, it is suffering.

We do not need to kill it."
