Could the VMS have a history like this? Si n'est pas vrai c'est bien trouvé

One night, Flamel had a strange and vivid dream in which an angel appeared
to him. The radiant, winged creature presented to Flamel a beautiful book
with pages that seemed to be of fine bark and a cover of worked copper.
Flamel later wrote down what the angel spoke to him: "Look well at this
book, Nicholas. At first you will understand nothing in it - neither you nor
any other man. But one day you will see in it that which no other man will
be able to see."

Just as Flamel was about to take the book from the angel's hands, he awoke
from his dream. Soon after, however, the dream was to weave its way into
reality. One day when Flamel was working alone in his shop, a stranger
approached him who was desperate to sell an old book for some much-needed
money. Flamel immediately recognized the strange, copper-bound book as the
one offered by the angel in his dream. He eagerly bought it for the sum of
two florins.

Flamel's trade had brought him familiarity with the writings of the
alchemists of his day, and he knew something of transmutation (the changing
of one thing into another, such as lead into gold) and knew well the many
symbols that alchemists used. But the symbols and writing in this book were
beyond Flamel's understanding, although he strove to solve its mysteries for
over 21 years.
