Story

What the post asked, what the answer turned out to be, and what the chain says happened. The record below holds the data.

Wizard

"Six letter word." Same field as block 61, the cipher.

wizard is made of Atbash pairs only, WD, IR and AZ, so it reads as itself backwards through the cipher. The author found it in the Wikipedia article on Atbash. Two hours. A player printed the WIF under block 63.

Published answer
The hint to the Wattpad story was relevant because of the word I was looking for was wizard. But the TOMI field was exactly the same as in block 61.
