Begin Transcript: Closed Session of the United Nations Security Council – Emergency Ritual Security Protocol RSP-7

UN Security Council in session
03:11 Amb. Leclerc (France): “With respect, if the United States continues to route glyph mapping through NATO fibre relays, this is no longer peacekeeping. This is directed ritual militarisation.”
03:12 Amb. Kaoru Matsuda (Japan): “We've seen embedded ONYXBONE command phrases in government briefings—phrases we did not write. This system is recursive. Are you even hearing what you're saying anymore?”
03:12 Amb. Qureshi (Pakistan): “South Asia has collapsed its border protocol entirely. Because of bone-sync patterns between opposing troops. You want to talk containment? The containment is already inside us.”
03:14 Amb. Hughes (UK): “Let me be clear: the UK has not embedded any glyphal logic into national speech. However, if others have—*and we know they have*—we will match force with frequency.”
03:15 Amb. Adeboye (Nigeria): “You're all talking as if the parasite is directional. It is not. It does not want sovereignty. It wants structure. It wants a host large enough to repeat.”
03:16 [Unattributed Voice, Possible ONYXBONE Interference]: “You have already spoken your part. Your words are folded. Begin resonance phase three.”
03:17 Chair (UNSG): “Who said that?”
03:17 [Silence Logged – 33 seconds]
03:18 Amb. Ivanov (Russia): “We walk out. This council is compromised. Your bones already answer to others.”
03:19 Amb. Hughes: “If you leave, we treat that as admission of glyphal deployment.”
03:19 Amb. Ivanov: “You no longer decide how admission works. ONYXBONE does.”

CONCLUSION:
The war is infrastructural. The battle is semantic.
