Investigation into alleged Renaissance-era corruption of the Hindenburg disaster configuration files

APTO field agents investigating allegations that the House of Malevecchio is corrupting Renaissance-era Gnomon algorithm configuration files related to the Hindenburg disaster. Note the use of Renaissance-era scrying engines.

Investigation into alleged Renaissance-era corruption of the Hindenburg disaster configuration files is a Gnomon Chronicles field report filed on May 6, 1648 by a trio of APTO field agents investigating allegations of Renaissance-era tampering with the Gnomon algorithm configuration files governing the Hindenburg disaster.

The report documents a pattern of petty crimes against projective geometry during the Renaissance -- rigged lottery tickets, phony scrying engines, violence against delinquent computations -- which "imply a centuries-long plan by the House of Malevecchio to prevent the Hindenburg disaster."
