I received an important report from my field operative. Here is the summary:

After 4 years the A.M.A.Z.O.N search algorithm I designed pulled coordinates for three artifacts. The first was retrieved after operation 'Toro' was successful. Here is the report:

After para-osmosis to slide 432 140, we appeared what looked like a lab or control room

we appeared what looked like a lab or control room 3 colleagues suffered 'splicing' during the para-osmosis, which indicates the lab was moving.

We were confronted by two civilians in combat suits connected to the room. They were subdued

One civilian was 432 150

The artifact was embedded in a control panel

Lyra was able to contain the artifact and bring it back safely through slide 1

Finally, expect a report on operation 'Martin' very soon.

This is a very imaginative code about what my secret santa is doing! Operation 'Toro' refers to my first gift - Pacific Rim on blu-ray -- directed by Guillarmo Del Toro.

I don't know what Operation 'Martin' refers to though! My amazon wishlist had Pacific Rim, and many others: http://www.amazon.co.uk/registry/wishlist/1ORDSNG2PDKYE but I suspect something from George R.R. Martin, such as the figurines or graphic novels!

EDIT: Artefact 2 (from Project 'Martin') arrived and it's a pop figure of Jon Snow from Game of Thrones! The story that came with it talks of the battle at ruby ford (pretty cool story!) and the next and final mission is project 'Touko'. I suspect Breaking Bad, but I don't have that on my wish list, so I am very keen to see what arrives!

Parcel 3 just arrived with a final note explaining this amazing story about amalgamation of gifts sought by alternative versions of myself, to become part of human conscious, just like Santa himself has done. It has been a very imaginative and well thought through sci-fi christmas story and I absolutely love it! (Gifter, are you a writer?) and my final gift is amazing, the board game eclipse! I am absolutely blown over by the generosity and the creativity of my gifter!!

Thank you very much! I just need to find out your username now!
