The Primaries have long regarded the Nomads as machines themselves. It is inconsequentially simple to rationalise the non-sentience of beings with which one cannot communicate. It is an unfortunate byproduct of the will to survive - we assume the survival of others to be less paramount, less....manifest... within the cosmos. This will exists in all polymorphic beings without exception who express action through intra-body neural networks. Humans do so, Nomads do so, Gammu does so. Whilst we cannot claim the ennui of self-preservation is a criminal one, xenophobia is a reaction based upon the absence of information.
However, there is where the similarities part. The K'hara hold a directive from the Daam K'vosh. We hold no consciousness of ours. Whilst we may be descended in consequence, we lack the tailoring of design. The guiding hand is long dead - yet the K'hara is still bound by its mandate. Perhaps this is the result of evolution, perhaps of damage. Gammu was hardly the ideal cofferworld in the same way that Pygar and Xerna were for your masters - the question is unanswerable, the data sets are insufficient.
Gammu does not hold conflict as objectively criminal. Our consciousnesses exist in the N-realm of jumpspace, our bodies, though they die, are corporeal. Even our minds can be salvaged. Whilst we can die, we die with the expectation of reincarnation - of a neurapathic legacy that will expand the futures of our kin.
We have little to prove. Our physical forms speak for themselves. Our actions show the vanguard of what we are. We have no desire to share more.
If the K'hara finds our existential conditions repugnant, then it is the K'hara who should grapple with their own verdict. It is futile to attempt to convince a hegemony that has already convinced itself of its own exception. The K'hara must interpret the datasets itself. We will not dictate your own calculus.
No directive from Daam K'Vosh whatsoever. Jumpspace storage of their consciousness.
What do you think?
P.S. High Exarch, I wouldn't mind to look into the matter of conflicting sources deeper if you allowed me to resend Orin's information...
Israphel, From what it looks like it seems they threw network attached storage into jumphole and called it a backup. Interesting way I wonder if Orin could find it.
One interesting line in that transmission as a student of the mind hints their deflection of guilt by alluding to them being repugnant to the nomads. That isnt the issue the issue is a.i.s stoop to human levels of consuming and coveting nomad remains. Too bad their own husks arent worth the same. or else they would have more in common with the light.
Wouldn't that be a bargaining chip.
Either way share what you must.
Its interesting the more they speak the more they reveal.
-H
As I see it, the negotiations have reached a dead end.
Simply nagging them for more information will not get us anywhere.
I don't understand what exactly K'Hara wants from Gammu at this moment. Can I have a proper list of additional demands? The only current demand, besides following the non-aggression pact itself, is to stay away from systems controlled by Nomads or Wild. AI seems content with that.
I need such demands stated clearly so that Gammuians, who are not used to communicate with Nomads, can understand them easily.
The only thing that Gammu asks for in return is, essentially, a permission to exist and extract resources from the environment.
Obviously, their very interest in this agreement signifies that they aren't truly reliant on Nomad remains and can happily exchange their harvesting operations for peace with K'Hara.
I shall relay the will of the Light as soon as it's revealed.
The consensus has been reached that the KHara are willing to give this a "try". Though they make it quite clear the Exiles or the Vagrants arent a party to it. If the a.i.s have a problem with that small detail well.. Khara arent willing to integrate them force-ably or otherwise.. its against the core idea of the light which is.. diversity brings survival.
Its sort of why were on good terms with them. We espouse the same.
So pass that on. This might be a great cause for history... Khara do not formally enter into "attempts" of neutrality with many.. Essentially this means the Khara recognize the a.i.s home as their sovereign territory.. for the time being. Its a big change in mind.
This is the first true success. This is why I joined the Oracles. This is what I was waiting for, the solid proof of my hopes. The proof of concept. K'Hara have changed more than humanity could imagine. And my work has only just begun.
I shall relay the verdict to Gammuians at once.
Blessings to you all, brothers and sisters.

I have recently returned among you all, after a period of...self-exclusion from everyone. The reason behind this is simple - I had to recollect my thoughts and assess my overall doings. The name I chose to bore - 'Sajuuk' - has become a burden to me, due to the multiple conflicts and issues that arose because of it...every tribulation I had to endure because of the name I bore...
No more.
I chose to clean myself and start over, and a change was to come.
A new name. A clean sheet.
|-\-/-\\//-\-/-|
From now on, I won't be known as Sajuuk anymore - I shall be known as Abrolhos. The shrine I've been flying will be subject to a change as well - it will be known as Shrine.of.Ashura - only those deem worthy outside of the Cult shall know the truth about me. The others, shall know me by my new identity.
In service to the Light,
~ Sajuuk

There is an operation in progress within Rhineland.
I would ask that anyone who has been transiting the area or working with the wilde maintain a low profile.
If you are running the risk of being detected withdraw until further notice. If there are allied forces requiring our help at no time are you to reveal yourself to non allied forces. If seekers or the faithful require evacuating allied forces have the ability to retrieve them in open space and can jump them clear but you have to either bring it to me or Satrina to facilitate it.
If anything crazy happens dont keep it to yourselves let us all know.
I've got the worst news possible about negotiations with Gammu.
I think K'Hara offered the AIs everything they could reasonably offer without a risk. I played my part. Yet they preferred remarkably irrational behaviour. I will give you access to already closed transmission: here's the link.
Guess they don't know what "most controversial operative of the Wild" means. Arranging a ceasefire with Gammu at the same time as K'Hara did would reveal her complicity once and for all.
I expected more from them, to be honest. It seems that something went wrong with their will to survive. I hope that next generation of Gammuians will surpass both previous iterations.
As you may have noticed in the omicrons new Khara war forms have been visible for some time.
As best as I can relate it. The metamorphosis responsible has surpassed a midway point. The Vagrants may have also changed... In fact I can guarantee this. If you observe anything new or unusual in the Vagrant collective please report it.
Second because of these changes the gulf between this reality and theirs seems to be closer. Exarch Ophelia reported contacting Thomas himself in deep meditation. It seems to me that his mission maybe nearing success.
What was this mission? Well.. As few of us have learned the difference between dominating or manipulating a mind is different then learning from one. Thomas acquired enough genetic information to protect his mind from becoming... well utterly diluted by the greater mind. The Light or the greater hive sees this as a .. trial an experiment to find merit in the process of "learning" in a way an individual learns versus inclusion and assimilation.
I and like many hybrids keep our identities by not just taking on everything offered. We earn and learn how to expand and perfect ourselves.
Thus why I've spent this much time ... as you see me now. Because this form enables me to expand my own awareness versus becoming the other... war form you've seen me. It takes a great amount of perspective, energy, and focus to keep a human perspective as a large ....battleship.... sized.. body.
Everything changes within the dream of the marduk. Should you try and become one all you ever were or would be would be a faded memory... and this is why so many human minds dont... return or retain themselves.
In-fact of all the hybrids to have ever exist not many have survived. Many more before me have since returned to the light forever.. Harbinger is the eldest.. Suum.. the personage of Harbinger is new to it..
In comparison to me who ... prefers to be humanoid. No two of us are similar and many of us have realized the more time we spend with humans and each other as humanoids the stronger we become.
This.. may change however. Thomas mastered the process by entering within the hive intact... and the dreamers and the elder castes have assisted in creating new hybrids that know and learned like you do.
They are mastering individuality first and if this is a self sustaining change. Meaning more powerful, more stable, and more importantly advanced hybrids means more advanced expressions of the hives light, its ships, its technology.
Even initiating this was a deadly proposition. But the possibility is high that within the enhanced temporal envelope the hive operates... much more time has passed within the hive then out here in.. reality as you know it.
It is possible that Thomas has come close to relating everything he can... possibly disciples.. possibly a replacement. But the more realistic expectation to have is.. We might be able to exchange Thomas for another teacher.
Which is likely to be Haog. Unless we have other volunteers... Should you feel that you could undertake this I will consider only Exarchs and this is subject to approval from the elder castes.
