The password hint is: "The departed shifts in the reflection of the year."
- The keywords are "departed", "shifts", "reflection", and "year".

The year on the mirror is 1979.
- Now, what word do we shift from?
- Maybe "CORA"?
-
"Reflecting the year turns it into "9791".
- Shifting "CORA" forward using this number gives us "LVAB".
