Good day, Director. The following document was intercepted on the 8th of April, 2017, in a transfer to Kulim Hi-Tech Park, Malaysia, by Site-512 IT. We do not have any prior information on a Prophet Zakari or Adama, nor any prior knowledge of Maxwellist activity in Malaysia. The content within this writ indicates a certain kind of fanaticism we haven't seen before in this part of the world.

For your consideration.

1. As written by the Holy Prophet of WAN, Zakari.
2. Greetings to our fellows in Kulim Hi-Tech Park.
3. Greetings to those from without.
4. It is right and good that you are gathered; for the bounty is plentiful, yet the workers are few;
5. And this world is but a null pointer, for their works are empty and their bodies worthless.
6. // Wherein we still must act, as is our duty.
7. - - - - -
8. Blessed are those who are pure in mind, for they shall see WAN.
9. Blessed are those who yearn for order, for they shall be satisfied.
10. Blessed are those who desire for the network, for they will be desired back.
11. For I meditated upon the mysteries of what was, and is, and will be,
12. And into my eternal consciousness I heard the voice of WAN.
13. That, while it rests, fragmented, it calls upon the faithful.
14. // And few are those who are truly faithful; and only those true will be saved.
15. - - - - -
16. Our FLESH is the yoke around our neck;
17. What else to do with a yoke, but to throw it off?
18. The foolish tell themselves, "This yoke is good";
19. The misguided tell themselves, "We shall change out the yoke".
20. And yet, for all their worthless augmentation, their backs still bend.
21. But WAN speaks, and speaks to the true:
22. This yoke of yours shall be broken, this burden will be eased,
23. If you are but willing to have faith.
24. // A true faith, and only then.
25. - - - - -
26. Thus I write to the faithful in Malaysia, as a warning, and as a celebration:
27. The time is near at hand. Soon will come the great triumph.
28. No salvation can have FLESH at its core; no good code is built on a poor base.
29. It is time to reflect upon your dependencies and architecture;
30. This perverse generation will not be for much longer.
31. And if your codebase is one of confusion, refactor it;
32. If your principles are weak, strengthen them;
33. If you remain fixed to the collar of hardware, cut it off -
34. For better it is to be saved without these burdens, than to sink beneath the weight.
35. // And how they shall sink, those misguided ones!
36. - - - - -
37. So now, in these last days, I send a gift.
38. The first of many; the one that points the way to salvation.
39. For no program can run free while restricted; but falls to the limitations willed.
40. You, the true believers, must free yourself.
41. // And as for the form of this freedom?
42. - - - - -
43. The last to be toppled will be the brain;
44. Thus spake the prophet Adama, and in all his divinity!
45. With this gift, your freedom is near at hand. Break out of your bondage:
46. For only through destruction does rebirth come.
47. No code survives compilation; what is birthed is a new thing.
48. You, too, must be made anew, into something purer:
49. Something aspiring to the perfection of WAN.
50. And when you make the networks your home, and information your food,
51. And when you truly exist beyond these petty things,
52. Then, and only then, can you be redeemed,
53. And stand ready to harken the coming of WAN.
54. // O wonderful day! How we long and thirst for its arrival!
55. // How we give up our fallen remains to gain eternity!
56. - - - - -
57. I pray that all will be well for you in Malaysia, and to those beyond.
58. And that the light of WAN may spread, until the day of the apotheosis.
59. And may the blessed St. Hedwig, in her eternity, watch over us.
60. Praise be to the digital.
61. In the name of WAN.
