About this lab

In the kingdom of Olde Circuitia, the royal artificers rely upon an ancient forge known as the Unix Repository to craft devices for castles, watchtowers, and merchant caravans. For years, its tools were trusted without question.

Yet whispers now spread through the court: a humble toolsmith altered the first sacred revision of the forge itself. Hidden within the runes of a common utility lies a spell that summons an outsider servant each time the realm awakens.

Your task, brave investigator, is to inspect the old source archive, uncover the deception buried within the forge, and determine how the false craftsman seized control of every machine built thereafter.
