Nickname: The Mirrorden
Danger Ranking: 3C
First Reported: 1983–01–26 — Basement of condemned motel, Long Beach Peninsula, WA

Summary:
The Mirrorden refers to a pocket-space accessible through an unassuming full-length mirror found bolted to the wall of Room 3B in the defunct Clam’s Rest Motel. Any reflective surface placed in contact with this mirror becomes a doorway for approximately 11 minutes at a time. On the other side lies a lightless, fractured architectural space made entirely of warped glass and dull chrome.

Sound echoes indefinitely inside, and footsteps multiply. The space is labyrinthine, constantly rearranging itself while the visitor moves. Reflections appear where none should—people standing behind you, things moving in mimicry, even when alone.

Despite many expeditions, no definitive boundary or “center” has ever been found. Some teams have returned disoriented or subtly altered—reporting memories they never lived, faces they can’t quite describe, and reflections that don’t follow.

Known Properties:

• Activates through sustained contact between reflective objects and the original Mirrorden gateway.
  
• Time behaves inconsistently within—watches and mission clocks desynchronize.
  
• Mirrorden imitates architectural features from the mind of the person inside (hallways from childhood homes, stairwells that lead nowhere).
  
• “Hostile reflections” have been noted—these beings appear identical to the entrant, but exhibit erratic or predatory behavior.
  
• Psychological fatigue sets in quickly. Subjects often hear voices in their own tone, urging them to “come closer.”
  
• Occasionally, people have returned with items or injuries not accounted for in real time—missing fingernails, mirrored jewelry, photos that weren’t taken.
  

Containment Procedure:

• The Clam’s Rest Motel remains condemned, with fencing, armed presence, and “toxic mold hazard” signage.
  
• The original mirror is bolted inside an airtight chamber behind tempered glass within a sealed vault beneath Site-9.
  
• Entry requires dual authorization, post-mission psychological screening, and reflection desync analysis.
  
• No personal items with reflective surfaces may be brought in.
  
• All returning personnel must undergo memory consistency interviews and mirror exposure diagnostics.
  

Encounters:

• 1983–01–26 — Long Beach Peninsula, WA: Local handyman falls into the mirror during demolition. Reappears eight days later in the motel parking lot, dehydrated and claiming he was “shattered and reassembled.”
  
• 1988–06–14 — Internal Expedition: Two agents entered. One returned. The other’s face was later seen in a broken mirror fragment found embedded in the survivor’s jacket.
  
• 1990–08–03 — Containment Breach Attempt: Unknown intruder attempted to remove Mirrorden core using salvaged reflective armor. Disappeared mid-retrieval. Presence detected intermittently since.
  

Recommendation:
The Mirrorden is to be studied only through indirect means unless mission critical. Physical entry is discouraged. Reflections are not passive—they learn.

If your reflection blinks when you don’t, report to your Site Officer immediately.
