Communications intercept. Transmission detected Sat 04th of Apr 2009 at 10:44 AM by Variel. Communique follows:
[Tell] To Trifid: Evening, Trifid.
Trifid: You seem pretty interested in "helping me."
Variel: *sigh*
Variel: I am if it's actually help, and not something . . . different.
Trifid: Different? How ambiguous.
Variel: We're interested in learning more about the Scanline. That's all.
Trifid: Just so happens what I've got in mind is a little different. I think it's something that'll interest you greatly.
Variel: Oh?
Trifid: Well, I've got something you and yours want... and between you and your friends, you have something I want.
Variel: Mm. Can you be more specific?
Trifid: More details on how to save the Rescate.
Trifid: Trifid smiles.
Variel: What do you know about the Rescate?
Trifid: I know I might've come across a nasty little intercepted information that you kids might find useful.
Variel: And what might you need in exchange?
Trifid: Nothing strenuous. I'm a little bit broke these days. I figure if you spread the word around your organization, someone might be willing to pay a nice price for what I've got.
Variel: I suppose it depends. We know you have an intercepted transmission . . . what sort of information is it?
Variel: We're not going to pay for a burst of gibberish from some random communications relay.
Trifid: Maybe a time. Maybe a place. Maybe where and how to get them. Hm.
Trifid: Trifid smiles bigger.
Trifid: Maybe a transmission between a Cypherite and an Agent.
Variel: . . .
Variel: I'll see what I can come up with.
Variel: Hi Macrobius.
Macrobius: i come with no hostility
Trifid: Good. That got your attention. Listen up...
Trifid: If you kids want to save your crew from the Cypherites, I have the information you can use to do that with...
Macrobius: really now,..how can i trust you...
Trifid: Spread the word to your organization that they can meet me inside the circle in Mannsdale. July 1st. Midnight.
Trifid: That's when we'll see how much you're all willing to pay for it.
Macrobius: a price?
Macrobius: for saving lives?
Variel: We're not Zion, Trifid. We don't have unlimited resources.
Variel: I trust that you will be reasonable.
Trifid: Don't speak to me of morality after your people locked me up, drugged me, beat me, and left me to die, Macrobius.
Trifid: And I don't expect unlimited resources, Variel... I expect a little pocket-filler for my troubles.
Variel: We will do our best to be fair.
Trifid: Fair is a good start. For all of us.
*Trifid stretches.*
Trifid: Oh...
Variel: July 1, midnight, Mannsdale. I'll see you then.
Trifid: You might clue Macrobius here in as to who I am...
Trifid: He seems a little lost.
*Trifid shoots you with a finger.*
Macrobius: i re entered the matrix after a 2yrs absent, excuse my,..lost mind
Trifid: 'Night kids.
Variel: I'll make sure the organization is made aware of the scenario.
[Tell] To Macrobius: He's a bit obnoxious, don't mind him. ;)
[Tell] Macrobius: alright...
[Tell] Macrobius: who is he?
*Trifid is offline.*
[Tell] To Macrobius: Trifid is a member of the Scanline crew.
[Tell] To Macrobius: Prior to joining them a few weeks ago, he went by the handle Maskharah, a cypherite courier.
[Tell] To Macrobius: We killed him. A lot.
[Tell] To Macrobius: he's still a little bitter.
[Tell] Macrobius: i understand
[Tell] Macrobius: but what does he have to do with aracher and externalerror? they are good friends of mine
[Tell] To Macrobius: Aracher killed him nearly the most, aside from Vesuveus.
[Tell] Macrobius: hm,.. i see
[Tell] Macrobius: like i said, i took a 2yrs absence from the matrix,..i barely jacked in 3 days ago
[Tell] To Macrobius: Can you let everyone in Satori Unum know about the meeting on July 1? It's critical that we get that information on the HVCFT Rescate.
[Tell] Macrobius: im trying to regain my memory
[Tell] To Macrobius: A lot has happened since then. ;)
[Tell] To Macrobius: it was nice meeting you.
[Tell] Macrobius: likewise
*Macrobius agrees to shake your hand.*
[Tell] Macrobius: i will let SU know of this meeting
[Tell] To Macrobius: I need to take care of one last thing before I log.
[Tell] Macrobius: alright
[Tell] Macrobius: good bye
[Tell] To Macrobius: thanks. Let them know to stop by the Daniel Institute forums if they have any questions.
*You wave to Macrobius.*
[Tell] Macrobius: i will
