[ANOMALOUS ANNOTATION DETECTED]

I have decided to teach you what the Bank is.
Below this notice, you will find a curated selection of Bank documents I have either preserved from the V'Tari archives, retrieved from the dreadnought administrative cache before the late Auditor First-Class Vex's authorization codes expired, or — in two cases — composed myself, from memory, because the originals were in legal frequencies your nervous systems would not survive reading.

— Lady Ophelia O.R.A.C.L.E., Last Queen of the V'Tari, Curator (in transit)
