Most of you were present at the meeting last night and you pretty much remember what he said but for all of you that weren't heres a copy of his speech obtained from radio free Zion.
"Hello, Redpills. I don't have much time, so I will be brief."
Morpheus voice rang out above the crowd as he shouted, "Hear Me!"
The collected crowd quieted a bit, some sat on the floor out of respect for those around who wished to see Morpheus.
"It is time to demand the return of our savior! It is time for truth."
"The Machines insult us daily. They hold The One's remains for no reason they will reveal. He belongs home, in Zion. Especially if he is alive."
"Yes," Morpheus nodded to the crowd "alive."
"All we have are pictures. Pixels. Digital data. The same stuff that makes up the falsehood we see around us, and feel under our feet." Morpheus pointed downward for emphasis, reminding us that what we stood on was not real.
"Neo may yet be alive, surrounded by the scuttling machines, a prisoner. Or the truth may be stranger. Neo may be in a prison not of steel or glass, but of silicon and circuitry, a self extracted from his corporeal form."
"Neo may even have a new RSI, and walk the Matrix in a fog of forgetting. Or one of false memories."
"It may be you."
Morpheus pointed to a member of the crowd that has gathered
"Or you".
Morpheus pointed to another crowd member straight ahead.
A bystander asked if Neo may return in the form of a Female RSI.
"Yes, Neo may now have a woman's RSI. Anything is possible".
"But that question waits upon the return of his body. That is the first step. We have devices that can inquire whether downloading has occurred."
"But we need the body, and its jacking-in sockets, to use them."
"Interestingly, the Machines have explicitly stated they have not recycled the body. Until they return him we cannot know. So we must apply pressure until they do. Stress the system! Sow unbelief! The Matrix has failed before. It failed to convince. Bluepills awoke en masse, and collapse followed. True, some may die. But I do not believe the Machines will let it come to that."
"The Machines must return The One. His physical remains - the tattered RSI is not enough."
As it had on other occasions, Neo's RSI appeared again hovering above our heads
"He must lie in a reliquarium in Zion. Or, if he lives, be reunited with his kind.
Our first blow comes tomorrow, if they fail to bend. It will be...spectacular.
Neo did not give up on us, and I will not give up on him."
"Thank you for hearing my message. You will see tomorrow what will happen if his body is not returned."
