Given this, we can tell immediately that this is Engima machine cipher. So first things first, I launched up https://cryptii.com/pipes/enigma-machine.

We get the plaintext that is messagewrappedinlighthiddendeeperoutofsightlockingitmoretightanywayyourflagishereflagfdfeabcacbebfbadaefbeccaadddbafezzz
By formatting it a bit better we get
message wrapped in light hidden deeper out of sight locking it more tight anyway your flag is here flag fdfeabcacbebfbadaefbeccaadddbafezzz
So, i thought the flag was flag{fdfeabcacbebfbadaefbeccaadddbafezzz}, but this was too long, so i tried removing the final zzz characters, giving the the flag as flag{fdfeabcacbebfbadaefbeccaadddbafe}.
