Our years used to function differently from yours. The old calendar -- //the true calendar// -- was perfect. Thirteen months. Twenty-eight days each. Three hundred and sixty-four days a year. It was a system of pure order and perfection. We’ve found fragments of it in dead languages, in the history of cultures that never had contact with each other. All of these civilisations pointed to the same beautiful, simple math. A year that actually made sense.

Then, something broke.

We still don't know what happened, what caused something to break into our perfection of time. All we know is the result: a crack in time. A tear in the fabric of reality.

A single, extra day was forced into the year. A day that didn't belong to any month. A day that didn't deserve to be in a month.

This new, three-hundred sixty-five-day year is a flaw. A glitch. An error. And SCP-9822 is that error. SCP-9822 itself encompasses the extra day. A day where the anomalous simply... vanish. The rules don't apply because the day itself was never meant to have rules. It is, by its very nature, an exception.

That's why the Cycle exists.

There are thirteen of us because there were thirteen months. Each of us had twenty-eight days to govern. One took the first month, Two took the second, and the rest followed. The Cycle itself isn't a ritual, but an act of remembrance. A mourning of what was once a perfect loop of three hundred sixty-four. That's why no one took charge of the extra day. Because it was the reason for us to mourn the other three hundred sixty-four days.

Except, the Cycle was a lie. A lie passed down from our predecessors to keep us from... On second thought, it's better you figure it out yourself after reading this collection of documents.

Thirteen used to govern the thirteenth month, the month that now no longer officially exists. If Thirteen were still alive, if she hadn't sacrificed herself, perhaps I would still be looking back at the thirteen months and wish all of it still existed. Now... I'm not sure.

**Item #:** SCP-9822

**Object Class:** --Ticonderoga-- Thaumiel

**Special Containment Procedures:** In the event that SCP-9822 occurs, all monitoring equipment focused on global anomalous activity is to be set to automatically disregard data for a 24-hour period. Additionally, all information-sensitive documents are to be restricted, even to those with access, to ensure maximum security in the absence of memetic kill agents. During SCP-9822's active state, all O5 Council members are to be placed under enhanced security protocols, as the loss of their anomalous traits elevates their risk profile.

**Description:** SCP-9822, commonly known as the "Cessation," refers to the temporal phenomenon that encompasses the entirety of reality. When SCP-9822 activates, all anomalous objects, entities, and phenomena within known reality cease to exist or function. When SCP-9822 deactivates, all previously suppressed anomalous properties and capabilities are restored, and any anomalies that were displaced will reappear at their last location. SCP-9822 is only able to activate once each year for 24 hours. The date of SCP-9822's annual activation can be predicted, though the exact methods are classified. Although SCP-9822's nature and origin remain unknown, it is confirmed that SCP-9822 either is or is the result of the extra day added to every year.

During the active state of SCP-9822:
* All anomalous objects become entirely non-anomalous and inert.
* All anomalous entities lose all anomalous capabilities and experience constant pain.
* All anomalous phenomena cease to function.
* All extradimensional and subspacial areas become inaccessible.
* All memetic hazards become neutral and comprehensible.

SCP-9822 first came to the attention of the Foundation when large amounts of anomalies in containment momentarily lost their anomalous capabilities. Additionally, the speed of Earth's orbit was detected to decrease from 108,125 km/h to 107,208 km/h, adding an extra 24 hours to each solar orbit. Cooperating sentient anomalies reported massive amounts of pain and the loss of their anomalous capabilities at 12:00 AM UTC, followed by their resumption at 12:00 AM UTC the next day. An investigation concluded that all anomalies within reality ceased to exist or function, as no anomalous activity was detected within that time period.

The majority of Groups of Interest are assumed to already possess preliminary knowledge of SCP-9822's existence, though their current understanding is most likely fragmentary and incomplete. Cooperation with GoIs to investigate the nature of SCP-9822 has been considered, but no action has been taken yet.

SCP-9822's active state is now utilised for renovations on a large number of containment cells, as the loss of anomalous capabilities renders any anomalies harmless, thus minimising the probability of breaches or loss of personnel. A request to utilise SCP-9822 in the neutralisation of other anomalies, such as SCP-096 and SCP-682, has been approved and is currently in its testing phase.
