## Description

Right! an XOR challenge a pretty basic one. Below is the source code of the script that was used to encrypt the message containing the flag, Help me get the flag back!

```python
message = 'urchinsec{fake_flag}' # message comes here
key = 'a' # key comes here
encrypted = ''.join([chr(ord(x) ^ ord(key)) for x in message])
with open("enc", "w") as enc:
enc.write(encrypted)

print("encrypted")
```

## enc
0c0b 1a11 1017 0a1c 1a02 0116 0b0b 1017
1e26 1400 260e 1800 260d 1626 0d11 1c26
