The Londinium bureau was a subterranean safehouse, archive, and base of operations utilized by the Roman branch of the Hidden Ones from the 1st century until 432 when it was abandoned. The building was later discovered beneath the ruins of a Roman shrine in Lunden by Eivor Varinsdottir in 873.
Location
Built beneath a Roman shrine just outside of the original city limits in London, the Bureau was exceedingly well hidden. Originally, it could only be accessed via a fortified door, though Eivor was able to enter the bureau through a wall it shared with a natural cave system.[1]
History
The bureau was founded in the 1st century and served as the Hidden Ones’ primary base of operations in London, at the time called Londinium. It was in the Londinium Bureau that the ill fated assassination attempt on the Roman Emperor Hadrian was planned. Around 432, Magister Vitus formally closed the safe-house, encouraging surviving Hidden Ones to make their way towards the Hidden Ones bureau in Cologne. Rather than cart them half way across Europe, thousands of archived documents were left in the Bureau.[1]
In 873, Eivor, tasked with uncovering the abandoned bureaus of England by Hytham, discovered the Londinium Bureau. Eivor was able to enter the Bureau via a natural (partially submerged) cave system, and recovered a piece of The Magas Codex.[1]
