Here is some research on the grimoire

I just did worked on this, this evening. It isn't perfect and some of it is speculation but I am hoping that what I have will help you all out in whatever decoding you are attempting to do. Alpha Lupi = First Wolf. YUGA SUNDOWN = Age ending, end of time. MIDNIGHT EXIGENT = New day pressing or darkness pressing. HADAL = Hades CARRHAE WHITE= Carrhae was a battle where a small army used hit and run tactics to defeat a significantly larger force, Romans vs. Parthians. White, when considering light, is the presence of all colors, or rather the full spectrum. Here we might be able to assume that CARRHAE WHITE means all resources are diverted to a hit and run tactic for fighting. VOLUSPA = A Nordic peom that tells about Ragnarok, the worlds end and subsequent rebirth. This poem seems to favor the numbers 3 and 9. There are nine worlds mentioned in the poem and is an allusion to other Nordic poems. Below is an excerpt from the following link: http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/poe/poe03.htm. Is possible that VOLUSPA was a warmind like RASPUTIN. Although it may have been an operations code name Nine worlds: the worlds of the gods (Asgarth), of the Wanes (Vanaheim, cf. stanza 21 and note), of the elves (Alfheim), of men (Mithgarth), of the giants (Jotunheim), of fire (Muspellsheim, cf. stanza 47 and note), of the dark elves (Svartalfaheim), of the dead (Niflheim), and presumably of the dwarfs (perhaps Nithavellir, cf. stanza 37 and note, but the ninth world is uncertain). The tree: the world-ash Yggdrasil, [fp. 4] symbolizing the universe; cf. Grimnismol, 29-35 and notes, wherein Yggdrasil is described at length.] There seem to be some similarities here between Destiny and the nine worlds. Below is some additional interesting fact. Wanes (or more appropriate Vanes) = a group of gods associated with fertility, wisdom, nature, magic, and the ability to see the future. SURTR DROWN = Surtr was a jotunn or giant who would play a major role in Ragnarok wielding a bright sword and engulf the Earth in flames. Drown means to kill intently with water or to flood something. Is possible that SURTR DROWN was a warmind like RASPUTIN. Although it may have been an operations code name FENRIR HEART = Fenrir was a wolf in Norse mythology who was bound by the gods because of his rapid growth and trouble making. The word HEART is most likely used here to refer to the core of something. Is possible that FENRIR HEART was a warmind like RASPUTIN. Although it may have been an operations code name CAUTERIZE.DISPERSE.ESTIVATE = Burn to stop bleeding or to stop exiting, split into multiple pieces, enter a state of hibernation. I believe that this is Rasputin separating and isolating various aspects of himself to avoid full enemy seizure of his systems and then powering down into hibernation mode on Earth to preserve enough power for core systems. In the number and letter series V113NNI070XMX001 and the series V113NNI070XMX091 the only difference here is the last 3 characters. I believe these are date and time identifiers. In GHOST FRAGMENT:DARKNESS, there are two of these number series. V113NNI070XMX001 and V113NNI070XMX091. Given that the last three characters of these number lines are the only things that change I believe that we can safely assume that these are days as counted according to a Julian calendar. There is a 90 count difference between the two numbers above and I therefore believe that this means that there was a 90 day time span that is covered in the GHOST FRAGMENT: DARKNESS grimoire card. As for the series V120NNI800CLS000 and the report line “As of CLS000 a HARD CIVILIZATION KILL EVENT is in progress across the operational area.” from GHOST FRAGMENT: RASPUTIN 4; I believe the first 10 numbers to be either a report identification number or a situation identification number.
