*Tonight at the Camon Central Church, Pluribus Neo and the Holy Warriors of Zion met with TaeCross, the alleged organizational liaison for E Pluribus Neo. What follows is the transcript. Screenshots will be added soon.*

*----------*

TaeCross: Loyality is hard in these times. To have a man at your back that you can trust with your life, is worth a billion info atleast.
*You agree with TaeCross.*
Phrack: Absolutely.
TaeCross: this is commendible,.. Phrack, Already your men have supplyed the cause with information that would have taken me weeks to gather
*TaeCross points BODRaz straight ahead.*
TaeCross: This man especially.
BODRaz: *smiles* no problem, Taecross.
Phrack: Anything for the cause. Anything.
TaeCross: Well well, isn't this a party...
BODRaz: I ask only for your gratitude, Taecross. And It is only what any loyal pn member would do for the cause,.
MadHattah: So it would seem.
TaeCross: MadHattah.. I was told of you... Nothing good.
SkyFy: lol
MadHattah: *smoothes his jacket* Opinions vary ..
Crimen: MadHattah proves useful, otherwise the Merovingian wouldn't keep him around...trust me, I know.
Dezreki: Psh, MadHattah, so we meet again....
TaeCross: They do... Some right, some very wrong..
MadHattah: Amazing who you meet no?
*Dezreki shrugs indifferently.*
Crimen: As if "planned" that way. *smirks*
MadHattah: I seem to find peace nearby..
Phrack: Dezreki, if I may, allow me to introduce you to TaeCross.
Dezreki: TaeCross?
Ravyr: Surely we did not come here to meet with the dredges of society, Madhattah?
MadHattah: So perhaps.. I might be here more often.
MadHattah: Ahh but yes.. Ravyr you are right..
Phrack: TaeCross, this is Dezreki... a close ally.
Dezreki: I do enjoy this place as well, MadHattah.
Dezreki: My hometown...
Lenje: As do I.
TaeCross: Mmm.. Phrack, perhaps we should move this to the church. The Riftraft out here is not suiting for us. Ill company only brings the worst attetnion.
MadHattah: Now this is interesting.. no?
TaeCross: mmmm?
Phrack: Indeed.
MadHattah: All the fanatics at one tight little spot..
Phrack: Let's.
Phrack: PN, to the church.
Lenje: Fanatics, eh?
*You signal to move out.*
[Faction] SkyFy: This aughta be interesting
TaeCross: Very Fancy... Do you have nothing to say MadHatteh? or... will you just stare at me with your dirty eyes?
MadHattah: But I must leave you then as my code is starting to crawl.
*You target [Door]*
NRK1: After you.
*SkyFy kneels.*
*You kneel.*
*SkyFy kneels.*
TaeCross: This is not a formal meeting. So I will not stand.
*SkyFy salutes.*
*Deeboman kneels.*
*NRK1 kneels.*
Phrack: Understood.
TaeCross: *makes a face* So it begins.. Cryptos just spoke.
Phrack: Beautiful. More garbage filling the air.
TaeCross: Indeed. Our cause, my leaders, are forming to counter him. My role til it is ordered to change, is to scout. Recon.
Phrack: *nods*
TaeCross: To find out strenghts to use, weaknesses to improve on. To find out who are friends, and who are foes.
BODRaz: I hope that I have at least aided you with my efforts, Taecross.
Phrack: So far, I've found many more foes than friends. The ones aiding us, however, are beyond loyal.
TaeCross: This is a war. Neo died for us. Someone I didn't know, Most of use didn't know, went and died for us. There is something special there. Religious like no less.
Phrack: I agree.
Phrack: We all do.
TaeCross: Raz and NRK both have helped me. I have only been here for a short time, and because of them, I have learned much. There are others here I in time wish to meet, and learn more. For in knowing our selves, we can train betterm and be strong.
*TaeCross waves to Dezreki.*
*Dezreki bows his head to TaeCross.*
TaeCross: You are welcome to the floor you know
Dezreki: I prefer the balcony, thanks though.
TaeCross: as you see fit.
BODRaz: Any other tasks you may need to be done, you know where to ask, Taecross. *winks*
NRK1: Indeed.
BODRaz: Me and NRK1 are here always.
TaeCross: So... you have heard the basics of what I have had to say. Now what of you. Surely you have questions. I am promissed by my leaders that I can not answer them all right now. In time, I can, but for now. Let us share. As I have said, this is informal. So..
Phrack: We're prepared to do whatever must be done. We've been gathering immense amounts of intelligence from the Merovingians, the Cypherites, and the Machines. Even Zion.
TaeCross: What do you all think? *weak smile*
NRK1: I think we've got the power to really do somethin here.
BODRaz: I agree,
Deeboman: we must wield that power carefully...
Dezreki: Power.....but to we have tactical setups ready to do anything? We need to be organized to make any type of movement.
Deeboman: I wish not to tarnish Neo's legacy...
Phrack: Agreed. The only real questions I know that we have, are the two questions we don't think you can answer yet.
Phrack: When, and how.
TaeCross: You do... You have numbers. And from what I hear, you have fighters. This is Good, but All warfare is based on Deception.
TaeCross: When? mmm Soon. Too soon, and yet not soon enough. With Cryptos speaking, there will be a responce.
Deeboman: So how do we intend on deceiving our foes?
TaeCross: There will be dozens of chances.. A new method every day. It could be something simple. Seeing a foe out in the street, and noticing where he is going.
Dezreki: The problem is...taking advantage of these. We need eyes everywhere.
TaeCross: it could be complex. Killing a key operative. But wars are often won and lost not with numbers. That Zerg rush as some call it. But with being smarter, being stronger, simply being better. The art of war is as complex as the matrix it self...
*Deeboman nods at TaeCross.*
Phrack: Eyes haven't been the problem. Finding loyal supporters has been. The enemies have been mounting their forces, tripling in number.
Phrack: Ahh, well put.
InfernoEvoker: Pardon me for speaking out of turn, but I find a certain irony in deceiving a man called Cryptos...
Deeboman: indeed
TaeCross: Inferno... What does the name Cryptos mean to you. Bluntly.
InfernoEvoker: Deception.
coldomc2005: We need to anticipate our foes, find their weaknesses and exploit them, but this is easier said than done TaeCross
Dezreki: As he said...numbers...not a problem......we just need someone skilled, yet at the same time expendable.
BODRaz: You may think we have much support, but we have little compared to the enemy. Our main problem is finding loyal supporters as Phrack said.
TaeCross: Yes. And why would someone call them selves Deception? Why would someone try to show, to hype them selves up like that? What strenght is in that?
Phrack: Sir, if I may...
Lenje: The strength of confusion.
InfernoEvoker: It leaves you second-guessing everything you attempt. If you oppose Deception as a concept, you expect the same in return.
TaeCross: When you are strong, show weakness. When you are Weak, show strenght. I hear that name, and I hear weakness. Not strenght.. and Yes Phrack?
Phrack: I believe we're being deceived. I believe that Cryptos isn't what he seems to be.
TaeCross: And what makes you think this?
Redopsin: I'd be inclined to agree Phrack
Phrack: The reports. Cryptos was a Zion Captain who jacked out of the Matrix one day, and was... different, correct?
Dezreki: *Shrugs* Phrack, either way this guy is a threat. We gotta take him down.
Phrack: Doesn't this sound familiar? Like Bane, perhaps?
Lenje: Except...perhaps an exile?
InfernoEvoker: It would be just like a machine to attempt a successful tactic a second time.
Redopsin: Not exactly, the Operative Cryptos went missing.
Dezreki: Phrack, I ask you this question, Bane was a threat still, correct? This guy has to be brought down.
TaeCross: He was a Zion Captain, and something happened to change that. What that was, or what that is, I do not know... That is.. a flaw. something we do not know of our foe. To know the foe, is to know the self.
Lenje: I agree with Dezreki on this matter.
Phrack: Is it possible that Cryptos could have been infected by a fragment of Smith's code? The same code Gray has? And yes, I know, Dez... I'm just trying to ascertain how big of a threat this person really is.
Lenje: Phrack, if i may extend on your theory?
Phrack: Please do.
Lenje: What if it wasnt a machien code of which changed Cryptos...but an exile code.
TaeCross: Bane.. if the archives are correct... had traces of smith in him. While I am unconvinced that Smith is here with out the balance it brings.. But mm.. this is noteworthy. *listens.*
Lenje: What if the Merovingian, or some other exile, figured out a way, like Smith, to trasmute his code into other code?
Phrack: It's possible. We know the Effectuator can replicate as well. My only thought is... if this is, somehow, Smith, then it brings further proof that Neo is still among us.
Phrack: That Morpheus was right.
coldomc2005: If this is true and Cryptos has Gray gene's then surely only The One can destroy him?
Lenje: This is true....where there is a Smith...there is a Neo...
TaeCross: We can speculate from here til when Neo comes back. But one must be careful in working in theories. And even more danger in claiming Smith has returned.
*Dezreki points Redopsin straight ahead.*
*Dezreki thinks Redopsin's time is over.*
Ryumanjisen: *yawn*
Phrack: Agreed, and understood.
InfernoEvoker: To solve Cryptos, I think we need to ponder metaphorically. Not the men, or even the codes, but the meanings.
TaeCross: If the source fears Neo did not do his job completely... Then the truce might be at stake.
TaeCross: Well well well... Look what we have here
*You target [Redopsin] the level 29 Gunman.*
*[Redopsin] is friendly.*
TaeCross: Redopsin.. Did Rogue Send you?
Dezreki: Just to let you guys know, there's a machine here.
Recession: little late
Dezreki: If my pointing and death threats didn't get the point across.
TaeCross: He is a cypherite. The Sommus Fraternitas are known Supporters.
Dezreki: Haha
Dezreki: Good, double the reason to take him out.
NRK1: Sounds like a target to me.
BODRaz: Heh
*You are now susceptible to PvP*
Redopsin: Come now, did I say anything to imply I was against you?
NRK1: Your mask is implication enough.
InfernoEvoker: Gentlemen...This is a holy place. Have we asked him to leave, yet?
Dezreki: Leave.
Phrack: I do so hate when Churches are suddenly filled with garbage.
Dezreki: There, I asked him.
Deeboman: yet....
NRK1: We need to make an example of all Cypherites.
BODRaz: Indeed.
Redopsin: Please, you men are so obsessed with fighting.
InfernoEvoker: Give him a chance to do what is right, or we make an example of ouselves.
TaeCross: mmm... Lets see if I can call in a favor here.....
InfernoEvoker: One. Chance.
NRK1: Only with the likes of you. Vermin.
Dezreki: You can get the hell out.
Dezreki: Or we can resort to killing you.
Lenje: Wait, TaeCross is calling a favor.
Deeboman: he doesnt wish to fight....
*Dezreki shrugs indifferently.*
Redopsin: I leave... only because it suits me to do so.
Deeboman: let us not turn the church into a battlefield
Lenje: Deeboman...the church has always been a battlefield.
Phrack: Thank you for your hospitality, Redospin.
Dezreki: You let him get away? Just like that? *Sigh*
BODRaz: *Smirks*
*Thespian uses an Ability.*
SkyFy: I fail to understand that...
InfernoEvoker: We need to choose our battles, Dez.
Lenje: If i may ask, Taecross, what was this favor?
Dezreki: I chose mine a long time ago.
TaeCross: This is a chruch. a holy place. not a place for blood. I do have some connections here and there. He was told to leave... less his code suffers.. problems.
Phrack: At least it got you guys down to the floor.
TaeCross: But.. back to where we were.. and to a nice seat.
InfernoEvoker: We have the overwhelming advantage, but it would not be correct for us to sully this place.
Phrack: I feel less divided, now.
Ryumanjisen: *long yawn*
Dezreki: Heh.
Dezreki: Holy Warriors, sit.
Dezreki: Enjoy this....whatever this is.
*Dezreki shrugs indifferently.*
Lenje: Yet, TaeCross, the church has always been a Battleground.
TaeCross: So.. where were we. I don't want to take up the whole night. I loath the long meetings just as much as some of you do.
Phrack: I enjoy them, personally. A chance for something different. *shrugs* We were discussing how to build a suitable front against Cryptos.
SkyFy: I am sorry but this is a church maybe not of god bec it is in a game but it is still a church why would we disgrace it we wouldent in real life would we?
[Faction] Phrack: I might. SMILEY:P I've done worse.
Dezreki: *Shrugs* If unholy comes into a holy place...remove it.
Deeboman: let the past be the past and let us continue this conversation....
Ryumanjisen: talk by yourself, I donīt believe in God. This place holds no meaning for me
[Faction] SkyFy: lol
[Faction] SkyFy: just trying to keep peace sir..
Lenje: I believe we were talking about the subject of the truce..of if Neo did not truly do his job.
Recession: let us get back to our point please
TaeCross: God or no god. War does not involve god. The foe will be praying to the allmighty for support just as hard as well will be.. But yes, to fight.
TaeCross: we will be no less... excuse me
Deeboman: well.....if that's the case then maybe thats why we have the truce and not true peace....
Ryumanjisen: praying the almighty...*laughs*
Lenje: I believe that we have gone a bit off subject, eh? Perhaps we should continue so that it does not take til the time of Sunrise?
Lenje: I believe that we should invesigate the fact that some foreign code has altered Crypos.
TaeCross: Well said... We were on the topic of who was this cyrptos. This knowing our foe. Now, what do you know? Code has infected him?
Phrack: It's the only working theory I have, sir.
Deeboman: He is not the same....
TaeCross: Well, share. Theories are just theories until we can test them? why do you think this?
Phrack: To go from extreme hatred towards the machines, to preaching that they're our salvation...
Phrack: It takes one hell of a change in mindset.
Dezreki: *Begins to toy with his dual guns*
Phrack: Very similar to the records surrounding Bane.
Deeboman: so maybe someone brainwashed him like the machines tried to do with Morpheus
Ryumanjisen: or some kind of "brainwashing"
Phrack: Either way, it makes him a pawn, and it's an act of war.
Lenje: Or a "codewashing" per say?
coldomc2005: its all down to control, someone is controlling him, but who?
InfernoEvoker: Approach it from a different angle...let's figure out what's not happening with Cryptos. For instance, it's too drastic to be some kind of leverage over the Zion Captain, so he is something else.
Dezreki: That's why we gotta take him out...like I suggested. Don't matter who's controllling him, her's out to get us.
Deeboman: You don't believe Cryptos is worthy of salvation if he is indeed a pawn?
coldomc2005: But if Cryptos has these special code altering cells we may not defeat him our only option is to eliminate the controller
Phrack: It's all down to our options.
InfernoEvoker: Understanding the source of the changce can lead to the most effective means against it.
Ryumanjisen: do you believe Cryptos and their bluepill lovers are really a threat?
Lenje: No, i believe that he is someone who is beond salvation.
TaeCross: All are worthy. If they believe. But what he is doing is spitting on Neo. Not saving.. settling down, and establishing what he has made.
Dezreki: Well, he can't believe, he's a pawn *Smiles*.
coldomc2005: TaeCross you no anything about Neo's RSI being in one of his boxes
Lenje: Hence, he must be taken out, i believe the time for peace talks has passed...
Dezreki: I'm with you on that, Lenje.
TaeCross: I have met Machinists that care for Neo's path. Yet they only want peace between Man and Machine on the Machines terms. They are more likely to be absrobed by the machines.
TaeCross: I have heard the rumors of Neo's RSI in those damned Boxxes. and until I see proof. RSI code. it is just a rumor
BODRaz: Those machinist views do not differ from Commander Locks views.
coldomc2005: mmm
Dezreki: I've heard it as well. *Shrugs*
Ryumanjisen: now this is interesting...what do you mean by peace "on the machines terms"?
Dezreki: Could be an illusion to distract us from the goal....
SkyFy: Agreeable
Patronous: Our goal should be complete freedom, as Morpheaus has said "As long as teh matrix exsist the human race can never be free
coldomc2005: Ok no matter what Cryptos is, what are the current plans
Deeboman: Amen
TaeCross: Well said.
Dezreki: Don't charge. Don't! New intel! Myself and Lenje have come to the conclusion of something.
Ryumanjisen: I donīt know you, but I find more freedom in this place than in the real...
Dezreki: Lenje? Care to begin?
Lenje: Yes, if i may.
Patronous: Yes you have more power buts its not real
Lenje: As some of you know im sure, there was a meeting" of sorts here with an exile named TheMime
TaeCross: The Mime?
Dezreki: Yeah, NRK1 was there!
Lenje: This exile warned us that the General will attempt to attack zion.
Phrack: Yes, I received this intel, as well.
TaeCross: There was some tile Exile outside minutes ago. The Code is acting very strange lately.
Ryumanjisen: oh...what a surprise...I canīt believe it!. Meh.
Dezreki: MCPD?
Lenje: Really? Intruiging. Now, Dezreki and I have come to a very interesting conclusion.
Dezreki: Gotta be kiddin me.
TaeCross: I see.. That is intresting. Why? Did he have proof? Or was he causeing trouble. Niobe and the General I have heard, are working well together.
Dezreki: Not exactly what I was told from Merrit.
Dezreki: Heh, she told us Niobe's watching him.
Lenje: Now, MadHattah said that he "felt safe here" in camon.
Dezreki: HWOZ personnel can back me up on that one, she met with our forces.
Phrack: Zion's about to get played. Hard.
Lenje: And TheMime though, said that Camon would be the first place to be hit
TaeCross: Mmm.. that is news Dezerki. I never liked Merrit to be honest. But Mmm.....
Dezreki: Exactly, why would a Merv stay here? HE KNOWS TheMime, very well.
Dezreki: And if knew General would make a charge here first...
Lenje: Now....why would, ife the exiles knew about the general, but feel safe in the very first attack vector?
Deeboman: and what of the crew member who was booted to allow room for Merrit
Phrack: Merovingian numbers in this area have tripled.
TaeCross: Why Camon? Or better yet. Why here. I stood here less then a week ago with my leader. This is holy ground.
Dezreki: We've all noticed it.
Lenje: Why? I say some sort of truce....and also, TheMime said that the General would try to lure us, to make us attack first.
Dezreki: Why Camon? I dunno, my hometown here man, can't let it get hit.
Lenje: What if this lure is Cryptos?
Dezreki: We believe Cryptos ties into this as well.
TaeCross: If you see this Mime. Tell him I'd like to speak with him. A talking Mime alone warrents intrest.
Phrack: Well, we know that the Merovingian ties with the Cypherites have ended.
Dezreki: Wasn't talking.
Dezreki: And it was a girl.
Ryumanjisen: The General will never attack Zion first. His main objective, right now, is the Frenchman.
Lenje: What if a merovingian planted that code into him, in a attempt to help the General.
Lenje: No, TheMine did not talk.
Phrack: She... mimed, didn't she?
Dezreki: Gestured, yeah.
TaeCross: What if, what If... I could go on about what if's for forever. So how did the mime share this info?
Lenje: And we were to guess as to her meaning, and should would gesture it being correct or incorrect.
Khursun: I'm sorry my time is short, but thank you! My associates will be very pleased!
*Khursun blows a kiss.*
Dezreki: Through gestures.
Lenje: Through gestures.
Lenje: Would you like me to go through the whole meeting?
*You target [Khursun] the level 10 Spy.*
*[Khursun] is friendly.*
*Could not add waypoint, player is not online or available on your client.*
TaeCross: Very Strange... and if you could. Yes, but in private. Again, I don't want to keep you til forever. There is work to be done
InfernoEvoker: Excuse me, gentlemen.
Lenje: Sorry, I apologize but i must leave.
coldomc2005: Is this really safe for all us Zionites to hang here
Dezreki: We have a breach...
Dezreki: Holy Warriors, scan all perimeters.
Dezreki: *Sigh* Do these infiltrations ever end....
Phrack: Nope. It's how the kids keep themselves busy.
Phrack: Regardless, TaeCross...
Dezreki: I'll keep em busy....
TaeCross: ah Spys... I have been told the Cypherites have harrassed Merit lately. I feel for her, and expect the same will come with me in time..
Phrack: We're ready. We'll be ready. We're just waiting for the word.
Dezreki: We have a breach, Machine spotted in perimeter loading assassin...anyone targeted by this?
InfernoEvoker: Who did SmithVirus blow a kiss to?
TaeCross: SmithVirus, fitting name... If you wish to talk. come out. I'll share exactly my feeling to you. And everything I want you to share with your leaders in one swift motion....
Dezreki: Forgive me but I think it'd be in your interest to disperse, fast.
Dezreki: Or we'll have the biggest intel leak.
InfernoEvoker: Sky spotted him, and said he blew a kiss to someone, then left. Sky thinks this may be like a Kiss of death.
TaeCross: Now.. I will say one thing.
Dezreki: I'll give the sucker a kiss of death...
TaeCross: Intel will be breached, from time to time. This is informal. This matters little.
Dezreki: Wrong, it matters alot!
Dezreki: They put together bits and pieces and they win.
0101Quidam1010: They will never win.
Phrack: Agreed, TaeCross. We have nothing to hide, at this point. They NEED to know we're coming.
Dezreki: Simple as that. You learn stuff like that from being a Commander for the past 10 months.
coldomc2005: Yes its getting dangerous here
Dezreki: They already know we're coming, but they can't have all of our movements!
SkyFy: This dont feal to right...
Dezreki: No, it doesn't.
TaeCross: Confident Dezerki.
SkyFy: Telling the enemy our plans is almost suicide
Dezreki: Listen, you guys can handle this whatever way you want. But we need to be more secure in what we do and stay on our feet.
[Faction] Phrack: PN, calm yourselves. Let whatever's leaked be leaked. If it was meant to be secured, it would be. SMILEY;) Tae knows what he's doing.
Dezreki: I know my troops are constantly watching for new movements.
[Faction] 0101Quidam1010: Agreed.
TaeCross: Oh we will be more Secure. They can tack us to a degree, and this place is very obivious. If I didn't know better, this is the first place I would look..
Deeboman: I was once told that the enemy could know your exact battle plan....As long as we execute, we cannot be stopped....take confidence in that...
Dezreki: Oh sure we can be stopped! They change their formation to a perfect counter.
Dezreki: I mean, if they knew all of us come in A door, they setup a flank on the A door to throw us into confusion.
Patronous: As long as you know yourself and your enemy you can fight a million battles and never lose
TaeCross: Very well said Patronous. But it is never just that simple. The Art of war never is. Calculations, generals, leaders, millions of factors come into play.
Recession: he is still in area
Dezreki: Exactly, and our movements is a large factor!
Phrack: Without further distration, TaeCross, we'll be taking our leave, unless there is anything further.
Recession: and he has spy/assasin loaded
Phrack: I'll be looking forward to further communication with you.
TaeCross: Let him be.. the highest form of Generalship is to balk the enemy's plans.
Phrack: And our leader.
