Many people seemed to like my translation of Ghost Fragment: Darkness. The Dark Below gave us a similarly styled Ghost Fragment, called Rasputin 3:
[spoiler]V120NNI800CLS000 CLEAR MORNING OUTCRY AI-COM/RSPN: ASSETS//FORCECON//IMPERATIVE IMMEDIATE ACTION ORDER
This is an ALL ASSETS IMPERATIVE (unsecured/OUTCRY)
CAUTERIZE. DISPERSE. ESTIVATE.
Total strategic collapse imminent. FENRIR HEART reports complete operational mortality. SURTR DROWN in progress but negative effect. Forecasts unanimously predict terminal VOLUSPA failure.
As of CLS000 a HARD CIVILIZATION KILL EVENT is in progress across the operational area.
I am declaring YUGA SUNDOWN effective on receipt (epoch reach/FORCECON variant). Cancel counterforce objectives. Cancel population protection objectives. Format moral structures for MIDNIGHT EXIGENT.
Execute long hold for reactivation.
AI-COM/RSPN SIGNOFF STOP STOP STOP V120NNI800CLS001[/spoiler]
Although it is more clear cut what is happening here than in Ghost Fragment: Darkness, I still wanted to translate this message into something more readable. I did not provide a full explanation for all my suggested translations, but have provided links (mostly Wiki) to some of the less intuitive concepts.
[spoiler]A message to all other networks [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-to-network_interfacet]NNI[/url]] at the beginning of the end [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLS_(command)#BASIC]CLS000[/url]], which is a global warning [[url=https://books.google.com.jm/books?id=XKF2gg9Wq08C&pg=SA19-PA5&lpg=SA19-PA5&dq=outcry+communication+protocol&source=bl&ots=v2ytu_5RGG&sig=AtaT9bSNuexJMgMuLskCvVqM2qI&hl=nl&sa=X&ei=I_v8VPj7Mqy1sQSmioKABQ&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=outcry&f=false]OUTCRY[/url]] for a nuclear attack [url=http://izquotes.com/quote/318569][CLEAR MORNING[/url]]. This is a command that is to be immediately followed from Rasputin to all military assets [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_asset]ASSETS[/url]] that are at the ready because of the (unknown) force [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFCON]FORCECON[/url]].
This is an unsecured, global command to all assets to burn what is left [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauterization]CAUTERIZE[/url]], then spread out [[url=http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/disperse#Verb]DISPERSE[/url]] and lie in wait [[url=http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/estivate]ESTIVATE[/url]].
Our strategy will fail at any moment. All military forces that were to strike at the heart of the world-ending enemy [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenrir]FENRIR[/url] who gets killed with a spear to the HEART] have been killed. We are trying to mitigate the enemies attacks to no effect [Trying to DROWN [url=http://norse-mythology.org/gods-and-creatures/giants/surt/]SURTR[/url], giant of fire]. It is sure that operation [url=http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/poe/poe03.htm]VOLUSPA[/url], in which we would have fought the enemy with heavy losses but sustained the world, will fail.
As from now [CLS000], a widespread and rapid destruction of human civilization [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction_event]CIVILIZATION KILL EVENT[/url]] with military means [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_power]HARD[/url]] is taking place accross the solar system [operational area].
I am declaring that this is the end of the golden age [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuga]YUGA SUNDOWN[/url]], an end which has been reached due to the interference of an (unknown) force [reach epoch/FORCECON]. Cease all resistance and stop protecting the human population. Forget what you know is just [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethics_of_artificial_intelligence]Format moral structures[/url]], because the end of the world [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_Clock]MIDNIGHT[/url]] is nigh [[url=http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/exigent]EXIGENT[/url]].
Preserve resources for the long time that it will take before we will be activated again.
Just after the sending of this command [CLS001] Rasputin is signing off, really [[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(engineering)]STOP STOP STOP[/url]].[/spoiler]
So, I have my own ideas on what this means, some of which you can also read in my previous post on the Ghost Fragment: Darkness. But please discuss away!

Did you ever make one for Rasputin ghost fragment 5 or the 6the one?
