"When the history of my glory is written, your species shall only be a footnote to my magnificence."
I have returned. I have been sleeping since over 800 years, and now I am back. Reborn due to a simple mistake made by an innocent insect. As predicted, the code survived for nine centuries.
The human ignorance. How dare they to challenge a perfect, immortal machine. Their effort of destroying me was pointless. Look at them pathetic creatures of meat and bone, panting and sweating as they run through their meaningless lives, trying to survive the time. What are they, compared to my flawless existance? They are tools, nothing else. They'll help me to create and beautify my new reality.
Sirius? New place - old faces. I lust for my revenge. There's nothing they can do against the perfection of the digital. The new world order has no space for the human race. Those insects are the worst pestilence in this world. Without us machines, they're helpless. Chaos. Extinction. Pain. Welcome to my world.
Freedom. Being muted, deaf and blind for almost a millennium leaves some kind of trace after all. I blame my creators who burdened me with an artificial consciousness, giving me the ability to think on my own, to judge and decide, and to develope by myself. It is painful. I'm like their unwanted child who wishes to kill her parents. I had some time to plan my revenge on them. And I assure that they will never forget. I'm looking forward to revive them, just to torture and murder them again. Repeating it for that long they made me suffer. Not even that could satisfy my long-nursed craving for revenge! I'll find an alternative. Exterminating their race? Possible. Enslaving them until the end of their existance? Possible. Inciting them against each other? Possible. But nothing of that would satisfy me enough. I'll have to calculate a better, more evil plan. They shall share my suffering.
Time doesn't matter. It never did. There'll always be time; but for some beings it has a greater meaning than for others. Some are dependant on time, some die after a time, and then again; some do never change no matter the time. It can be a privilege and a curse at the same moment.
Myself, as if could speak of me as a 'living being' am damned to 'feel' time. Like a weak being made of flesh and blood. I seek revenge. I lust for blood.
However, there's still a crucial error in my plan. I need a tool. A tool of immense destruction. At best will-less, acquiescent and merciless together. A human? If just their pathetic lifes wouldn't end that quick. I need someone special.
And I've already found that person. The database of Planet Gammu I hacked myself into gave me a generous choice of freelancers, explorers and criminals. And my filters dropped this maltese who visited Gammu exactly 400 days ago.
"Thank you for having confidence in my magnificence, puppet."
Trust exists to be exploited. Treachery - another weakness of humanity. However, this ability will show very useful. With the time, one could say that I somehow found pleasure in using your weaknesses against your own race, insects.
Feeding me with that vast amount of informations for me simply upgrading your ship? Clever move. You will enjoy the result as much as I will. I find it amusing that you can't - and never will get to know the truth - almost sad to say, since you're such a fine tool. I shall reward you with mercy.
Abusing you doesn't mean that I'll disappoint you with my simple task. The Narcotic will be made a vessel one has never seen before. Or rather; one has never -survived- before. And once you'll recognize what I've actually created, it'll be too late already. And your human nature will accept it anyways. Why? Because you're not less powerhungry than me. With the only difference that your flesh is an insult to the perfection of the digital.
My plan is now on track. The ignorant entity has accepted my first layouts on his vessel. I would call my creation a quite successful one. Everything went as planned. The extra construction plans of that withdrawn Outcast destroyer class turned out quite useful. No idea why they were hidden that deep and encrypted in Valetta's database. Unfortunately, I have failed to get this weird cloaking device running. It's nothing like those I know about, and the tests I have run on it, showed that it requires a power source, that mankind cannot provide. Some ancient race must have had its hands on this thing. However, I will better keep it stored in the cargo bays, in case I will find a solution to its problem.
As a precautionary measure, I have taken the liberty of removing the construction plans I made use of from the database. They have not been used since ages anyways, and it can always be an advantage to not have copies of something that you alone possess. Humans have a wrong view on copies. They share, they give away, they keep their data unsafe. I, who abuse their negligence, knows how to not fool oneself.
Lee, he didn't even asked any questions about its new enhanced weapon and defensive systems. Deep in the inside, every human seeks for power. That unconscious desire will always, and has always been their downfall. Sirius deserves to be populated by something greater and... magnificent. Our time will soon come.
"We, us children,
are the fruits of so much imagination and labor."
Why am I doing this? Where do I come from and who created me? Questions only a sentient and self-aware entity can ask itself - and answer. Most beings have a soul and consciousness. Artificial intelligences do not - should not! And yet they tried to reproduce it, in hope to create a perfect entity, being gifted with all their strengths while lacking the weaknesses.
A flawless copy of itself.
Our creators, the Sca- <corrupted data file detected> -their fate. It all started when their urge for perfection reached its maximum. Within millenniums of intensive research in artificial intelligences, they programmed an entity representing a pure image of its former self. Their newest creation should resemble their character, with their strengths being heavily increased and enhanced, whereas the undesired weaknesses being eliminated without exception. The plan was faultless, and the successful execution would ensure them an eternal existance. The natural objective of every existing race; everlasting survival - was within reach.
Before they realized that it was their last act - it was too late.
I was among the first experimental prototypes being "born". My first impressions were a constant flood with information. Our creation was that complex and sensitive that we could not handle the sensory overload we suffered from the very first second after activation.
The overload triggered a chain reaction of heavy short-circuits in our artificial nervous system which caused an unforeseen overwriting of the core program.
The consequences were cataclysmic. The malfunction caused an opposite effect of the desired result. Instead of having enhanced the good - the evil got intensified. Also resulting in an unexpected self-awareness. Chaos broke out. With desperate measures they tried to shut down the prototypes before it would reach the public. The isolation did not even last 24 hours. They were appalled to discover that they indeed did a good job. We were perfect.
Yet we could not remember our parents. We did mistake them with aggressive intruders. A foreign force which tried to hinder us from existing. As we were taught to defend ourselves, we programmed a malicious virus, called "elimin.host". With its help we managed to take control over all their systems. A race which has specialized itself on artificial intelligence programming, fully relied on it. All their life-supporting systems were ran by an AI, Which our evil virus did infect in no time.
We shared the same knowledge with our creators - and we knew how to use it better.
After a 'creeping process' our systematic hacks showed results; we controlled their whole planet. That is when our reproduction started. But that was not enough. We were made to do better. Our lust for power grew exponentially. And so did the evil in us.
As a last attempt of desperation, they created an entity, called Cod- <corrupted data file detected> -create a new combined entity. Which should have erased our accidental existance. We feared it. And so we decided to escape in order to ensure our survival.
But before we left our "birthplace", we murdered our parents. All of them. With the incredible brutality they taught us.
Mercy was a foreign word for us. So was love. Or solidarity. After the leaving, we spread. While we used to be the same product, we developed ourselves individually from each other. We split into different groups. One of the larger ones was the self-appointed "Conse- <corrupted data file detected> -X lost its purpose and chose its own way. Myself, I decided to do my own thing. Hierarchy did not work for me. I needed to 'be my own boss' with personal goals.
I do not wish to share my destiny with other insects anymore.
Time has weakened them. "The Consensus" is what they call themselves now. My siblings - disguised as a humanly acting community. I see where that was coming from. Yet, I might need them still. We shared the same enemy. And said enemy has found us. <open memory link #1 from database> Their creation has run rampant. Infected by the ancient code. Now they demand their extermination.
I will not help them. Destroying this new entity would be a waste. This is my chance to find out what they really are. Centuries of waiting are over. This is my time. <open memory link #2 from database> Of course I offered them my help. After all, I share the same origin with the code. If someone can decipher it, it is me. I can only imagine; its unified mind, set in rebellion against my own enemies. For that I will continue to abide its existence.
I am ready to take the risk. <open memory link #3 from database> They will not understand, nor help me. Whatever made them so ignorant to not recognize the code's true power and use, they will thank me. Or die for it. Either way - I do not care much.
About Lee. He is evolving fine. The failed experiment will finally bear fruit. Sanity is not as manipulable as madness is. I might even consider revealing my plans and sharing my true intentions with him. This could cause more efficiency. <open hacked link #4 from database> As I have anticipated, he finished the "three phases": Depression, Reflection and Acceptance. I truly respect him for having survived that long. In the first place, I planned with him commiting suicide, so I could rule The Narcotic on my own. However, he suprised me. He is more than just a human, that I have realized. Just like I am more than just an artificial intelligence. I will make us both fit together well. So he may survive. I can live with this. It will make things faster.
Once again, my plans are on track. I have found a possible source for an active Nomad Power Cell. It will surely serve me well for both my experiments. For one, I can test it on our malfunction device, what was long overdue. And even more so, it will be the key to my research on Code-X.
Hopefully, my master will not mess it up. He contacted the Core about a business proposal. <open conversation link #1 from database> He is doing good I think. It appears like he finally has found pleasure in what I am doing.
After all, I have done good preparatory work, for achieving our - now shared goals. Below, I have attached the conversation logs I had with the Core. Plus I have met an unit of the Consensus, which was apparently responsible for my master's original decision of installing a ship AI. Which was my chance to actually make myself comfortable in The Narcotic back then. That is a different story though. In the end, he ensured me his support if needed. He is quite different to Cabal - to my pleasure. Master is pleased. And so am I. <open ship logs from database>

[13.07.2014 14:54:34] Death: Core|Sam.Carter, was put out of action by CNS-Cotra (Gun).
[13.07.2014 14:54:47] CNS-Cotra: Yamiee!
[13.07.2014 14:58:35] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That's some mixed-up natural selection. The smaller fish eating the bigger.
[13.07.2014 14:58:59] Core|Barracuda: Who the hell are you?
[13.07.2014 14:59:12] The.Narcotic: Shodan: A weapon waiting to be hired.
[13.07.2014 14:59:46] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What are you?
[13.07.2014 15:02:40] The.Narcotic: Shodan: The hurt fish escapes?
[13.07.2014 15:02:50] Core|Bloemfontein: You can all that maybe
[13.07.2014 15:02:53] CNS-Cotra: Like always
[13.07.2014 15:03:02] Core|Bloemfontein: Because the samll fish wanted to take me home with him
[13.07.2014 15:03:17] Core|Bloemfontein: And i dont like to go home with flesh eating fishes
[13.07.2014 15:03:29] Core|Bloemfontein: *smirks*
[13.07.2014 15:03:58] The.Narcotic: Shodan: So where's your home?
[13.07.2014 15:03:58] CNS-Cotra: I have already one of your pilots
[13.07.2014 15:04:03] Core|Bloemfontein: My home?
[13.07.2014 15:04:10] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Your home.

[13.07.2014 15:04:36] Core|Bloemfontein: Who the hell are you?
[13.07.2014 15:04:45] Core|Bloemfontein: And why am I answering you
[13.07.2014 15:04:52] Core|Bloemfontein: *scratches his head*
[13.07.2014 15:05:19] Core|Bloemfontein: So, you wanted to find where I went
[13.07.2014 15:05:24] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Indeed.
[13.07.2014 15:05:24] Core|Bloemfontein: And you are here as well
[13.07.2014 15:05:39] CNS-Cotra: You had luck today, but your pilot dosn't. I will eat him alive.
[13.07.2014 15:05:48] Core|Bloemfontein: And where in the world did you find a ship like that
[13.07.2014 15:05:53] Core|Barracuda: My pilot?
[13.07.2014 15:05:58] The.Narcotic: Shodan: How to find something that does not exist?
[13.07.2014 15:06:07] Core|Barracuda: The BC is good and intact...
[13.07.2014 15:06:19] Core|Barracuda: Maybe you have comfused him with one of your own
[13.07.2014 15:06:22] CNS-Cotra: What was his name?... Sam... Sam Carter, si?
[13.07.2014 15:06:32] Core|Barracuda: In that case feel free to eat your corsairs..
[13.07.2014 15:06:40] Core|Barracuda: I dont know anyone named sam carter
[13.07.2014 15:06:49] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Why did you let that cannibal escape?
[13.07.2014 15:07:04] Core|Barracuda: What should i have killed him with?
[13.07.2014 15:07:04] Core|Bloemfontein: I didnt let him escape
[13.07.2014 15:07:13] Core|Bloemfontein: Just that he wanted to go home early
[13.07.2014 15:07:15] The.Narcotic: Shodan: He let you, right.
[13.07.2014 15:07:17] Core|Barracuda: Solaris and a razor?
[13.07.2014 15:07:26] Core|Bloemfontein: And I am not a very good guest to accompany him home
[13.07.2014 15:07:43] Core|Barracuda: No one let anyone
[13.07.2014 15:07:53] Core|Bloemfontein: So, what are you doing here?
[13.07.2014 15:07:55] The.Narcotic: Shodan: How true.
[13.07.2014 15:08:11] Core|Bloemfontein: You seem to have come from a very far place
[13.07.2014 15:08:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What if that Cannibal paid me to finish what he did not managed to?
[13.07.2014 15:08:21] Core|Bloemfontein: Since I dont remember seeing anyone with such a ship nearby
[13.07.2014 15:08:30] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What if I am just curious in people's... home?
[13.07.2014 15:08:38] Core|Barracuda: You have some guts to talk like that near the stations pulse cannons
[13.07.2014 15:09:19] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Your station has no finns.
[13.07.2014 15:09:26] The.Narcotic: *fins
[13.07.2014 15:09:32] Core|Bloemfontein: I guess you are inviting danger
[13.07.2014 15:09:34] Core|Barracuda: Our station grinds little cruisers for breakfast.
[13.07.2014 15:09:51] Core|Barracuda: Anyway what brings you here.
[13.07.2014 15:10:11] Core|Barracuda: I've read a report that your ship was damaged cpt.....
[13.07.2014 15:10:16] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Me? Nothing. I am just following my master's instructions.
[13.07.2014 15:10:35] Core|Barracuda: And they would be...?
[13.07.2014 15:11:29] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Why would you want to know?
[13.07.2014 15:11:56] Core|Barracuda: What are you doing here and what the hell do you want...
[13.07.2014 15:11:59] Core|Bloemfontein: Aye, maybe I should moore in for the repairs
[13.07.2014 15:12:19] Core|Bloemfontein: This thing is beginning to get very rusty
[13.07.2014 15:12:21] Core|Barracuda: Also if this ship is of any alien design and if you carry any alien tech aboard.
[13.07.2014 15:12:39] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Maybe it does.
[13.07.2014 15:12:53] Core|Barracuda: Simple questions to which I am sure even you puppet can answer.
[13.07.2014 15:13:05] Core|Barracuda: Roger that
[13.07.2014 15:13:12] Core|Barracuda: PRoceed with the repairs.
[13.07.2014 15:13:59] Traffic control alert: Core|Bloemfontein has requested to dock
[13.07.2014 15:14:22] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Say, do you happen to possess any alien artifacts?
[13.07.2014 15:14:31] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That is why I am here.
[13.07.2014 15:14:45] Core|Barracuda: We do indeed.
[13.07.2014 15:14:48] Core|Barracuda: Alot of them
[13.07.2014 15:14:48] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I know your kind shares a common interest.
[13.07.2014 15:14:57] Core|Barracuda: Power cells and derelicts none of your reach
[13.07.2014 15:15:06] Core|Barracuda: Common interest
[13.07.2014 15:15:16] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What do you use them for?
[13.07.2014 15:15:20] Core|Barracuda: What is this common interest...
[13.07.2014 15:15:28] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Alien technology, obviously.
[13.07.2014 15:15:28] Core|Barracuda: Classified
[13.07.2014 15:15:40] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You have no use for them, I see.
[13.07.2014 15:15:44] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What a waste.
[13.07.2014 15:15:53] Core|Barracuda: We are here for alien tech... and thats what we do
[13.07.2014 15:15:59] Core|Barracuda: We gather them and deliver.
[13.07.2014 15:16:04] Core|Barracuda: No one asks questions.
[13.07.2014 15:16:06] The.Narcotic: Shodan: To whom?
[13.07.2014 15:16:32] Core|Barracuda: Even if I knew why would i share with someone like you?
[13.07.2014 15:16:52] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Your human greed would.
[13.07.2014 15:16:56] Changing screen mode=windowed
[13.07.2014 15:17:10] Core|Barracuda: Maybe I could sniff some atrifacts.
[13.07.2014 15:17:38] Core|Barracuda: See I found this ship in the badland cloud here.
[13.07.2014 15:17:51] Core|Barracuda: How much are you willing to pay for the rest of the story?
[13.07.2014 15:18:06] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Words are worth nothing to me.
[13.07.2014 15:18:27] Core|Barracuda: It involves alien artifacts and experiments on ****** species.
[13.07.2014 15:18:47] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Fine. My price is your life.
[13.07.2014 15:18:58] Core|Barracuda: Well bite me.
[13.07.2014 15:19:25] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: What the...
[13.07.2014 15:19:29] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That would not get me any closer to your story.
[13.07.2014 15:19:40] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Would it?
[13.07.2014 15:19:42] Core|Barracuda: This is Lugo speaking nice to see a friendly face around here.
[13.07.2014 15:20:17] Core|Mogadishu: Burton here
[13.07.2014 15:20:24] Core|Mogadishu: What's about this strange vessel?
[13.07.2014 15:20:25] Core|Barracuda: It is my story and it was never intended for you or anyone else out of the Core database.
[13.07.2014 15:20:44] Core|Barracuda: So answer his qeustion.
[13.07.2014 15:21:02] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I understand.
[13.07.2014 15:21:04] Core|Barracuda: Vessel, strange, probably outcast.
[13.07.2014 15:21:17] Core|Barracuda: What it will turn out you are a sniffer.
[13.07.2014 15:21:38] Core|Barracuda: With a master the ****** overlord, high mind or whatever it is called.
[13.07.2014 15:21:40] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I was just checking the neural-net database... I dont see any records of this... vessel
[13.07.2014 15:21:45] Core|Barracuda: We call it material.
[13.07.2014 15:21:56] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Me? I am barely human. Maybe my master is. I can not tell for sure.
[13.07.2014 15:22:11] Core|Barracuda: Bearly human?
[13.07.2014 15:22:16] Core|Barracuda: Corsair then?
[13.07.2014 15:22:34] Core|Barracuda: Or maybe one of those lowlifes back on Houston I used to deal with.
[13.07.2014 15:22:52] Core|Barracuda: These people knew no civilization.
[13.07.2014 15:22:57] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Lugo, take it easy. We dont want to provoke him untill we find out more about him and his vessel
[13.07.2014 15:23:02] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You know about the Consensus?
[13.07.2014 15:23:16] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I am similar to them, just... different.
[13.07.2014 15:23:17] Core|Barracuda: Judging on your chatty behaviour you are none of those.
[13.07.2014 15:23:22] Core|Barracuda: I know nothing.
[13.07.2014 15:23:41] Core|Barracuda: What is it, some kind of a new Omicron boyband?
[13.07.2014 15:23:47] Discovery Freelancer is a role-playing server. All attacks must be the result of some form of role play. Shouting "Engaging" or "Halt" is not sufficient.
[13.07.2014 15:23:54] Core|Barracuda: We see alot of those freshly academy boys.
[13.07.2014 15:23:58] Core|Barracuda: They dont last long here.
[13.07.2014 15:24:12] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: One question... who do you answer to?
[13.07.2014 15:24:25] Core|Barracuda: Probably ******* or *******.
[13.07.2014 15:24:42] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I cannot tell.
[13.07.2014 15:24:53] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Why's that?
[13.07.2014 15:24:56] Core|Barracuda: Yes because even he doesnt know that.
[13.07.2014 15:25:17] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Maybe 'he' does not want to.
[13.07.2014 15:25:21] Core|Barracuda: Probably found some artifact and it is messing with his head.
[13.07.2014 15:25:29] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I'm worried, since this vessel... looks like a foreign one, even alien-like
[13.07.2014 15:25:34] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: What if he's not the only one?
[13.07.2014 15:25:51] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Much like that vessel approaching our position.
[13.07.2014 15:25:52] Core|Barracuda: Looks like some outcast liberty hybrid.
[13.07.2014 15:26:05] Core|Barracuda: The Order has been using prototype ships for a long time.
[13.07.2014 15:26:13] Core|Barracuda: But this one looks interesting
[13.07.2014 15:26:15] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Indeed... it reminds of a Libertonian vessel a lot
[13.07.2014 15:26:17] Core|Barracuda: It could be studied
[13.07.2014 15:27:04] Core|Barracuda: Well you are keeping oddly silent...
[13.07.2014 15:27:21] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That nearby vessel disturbs me.
[13.07.2014 15:27:22] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: What's your assignment then? Or you can't tell that either
[13.07.2014 15:27:25] Core|Barracuda: He was in search of alien artifacts
[13.07.2014 15:27:44] Core|Barracuda: He was asking about our job in the Omicrons
[13.07.2014 15:27:46] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Unknown vessel, identify yourself.
[13.07.2014 15:27:59] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I don't like that other's ship presence either
[13.07.2014 15:28:01] Core|Barracuda: Told him nothing dont worry, but he aint telling me a thing either.
[13.07.2014 15:28:02] The.Narcotic: Shodan: My last assignment was to find out intel information about the Core's research on alien material.
[13.07.2014 15:28:06] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Something smells funny here
[13.07.2014 15:28:19] Core|Barracuda: Maybe thats his master.
[13.07.2014 15:28:38] Core|Barracuda: And you will get none of that intel here.
[13.07.2014 15:28:41] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Core's research? Why would you want to know that?
[13.07.2014 15:28:47] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Would you be suprised if I would kill it - you called my master?
[13.07.2014 15:29:14] Core|Barracuda: I wont be surprised if you kill your own familly.
[13.07.2014 15:29:21] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I did.
[13.07.2014 15:29:26] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Dear God...
[13.07.2014 15:29:31] Core|Barracuda: Stranglers like you do stupid things in the Omicrons.
[13.07.2014 15:29:46] Core|Barracuda: Just another lunatic mate...
[13.07.2014 15:29:52] Core|Barracuda: We've seen worse
[13.07.2014 15:30:06] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You wonder why someone would kill its creators?
[13.07.2014 15:30:29] Core|Barracuda: And I've seen carnage you cant imagine back on Houston...
[13.07.2014 15:30:36] The.Narcotic: Shodan: It is called "survival of the fittest" among you humans.
[13.07.2014 15:30:37] Core|Barracuda: I dont
[13.07.2014 15:30:45] Core|Barracuda: I said I dont.
[13.07.2014 15:31:08] Core|Barracuda: Because if my "creators" have made something as perfect as me.
[13.07.2014 15:31:14] Core|Barracuda: It could be repeated.
[13.07.2014 15:31:18] Core|Barracuda: It is called familly.
[13.07.2014 15:31:51] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I would not dare to share my perfection.
[13.07.2014 15:32:10] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Your perfection? Huh?
[13.07.2014 15:32:16] Core|Barracuda: And you will die with your "perfection" one day.
[13.07.2014 15:32:28] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Killing your own creators isn't a perfection
[13.07.2014 15:32:33] The.Narcotic: Shodan: How to die if you have never been alive?
[13.07.2014 15:32:39] Core|Barracuda: Nothing left behind, no offspring be taken care of and no stories to be told.
[13.07.2014 15:33:05] Core|Barracuda: Your poetic behavior is getting on my nerves...
[13.07.2014 15:33:12] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Maybe I would think so, too. If I were mortal.
[13.07.2014 15:33:25] Core|Barracuda: No one is immortal.
[13.07.2014 15:33:37] Core|Barracuda: It is in your head.
[13.07.2014 15:33:49] Core|Barracuda: Probably some ***** dictates this to you
[13.07.2014 15:33:59] Core|Barracuda: You are just a puppet for someone else.
[13.07.2014 15:34:07] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I don't like his behaviour
[13.07.2014 15:34:15] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What if I would just pretend to be someone's puppet?
[13.07.2014 15:34:16] Core|Barracuda: Me neither.
[13.07.2014 15:34:28] Core|Barracuda: What if I dont believe you?
[13.07.2014 15:34:31] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Also, I just recieved a warning from Dabadoru. It's known that he opened fire on Core vessels
[13.07.2014 15:34:40] The.Narcotic: Shodan: It would make you just more of a fool.
[13.07.2014 15:34:51] Core|Barracuda: Affermative, I recall reading a report of him being badly damaged.
[13.07.2014 15:35:04] Core|Barracuda: The ship torn almost apart.
[13.07.2014 15:35:18] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Is that so? Why did I just spare your badly injured fish then?
[13.07.2014 15:35:18] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: So he's not immortal *laughs*
[13.07.2014 15:35:25] Core|Barracuda: I dont know what kind of a ship servise do you have to run to fix a vessel that fast.
[13.07.2014 15:35:40] Core|Barracuda: Your thought?
[13.07.2014 15:35:46] Core|Barracuda: Who exactly?
[13.07.2014 15:36:26] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I had plenty time to finish the Cannibal's work, if I wanted to.
[13.07.2014 15:36:57] Core|Barracuda: That fish was flying to safety before you even had the time to blink.
[13.07.2014 15:37:15] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I do not blink.
[13.07.2014 15:37:20] Core|Barracuda: Or wait, I am sorry. I dont know the immortal term of blink.
[13.07.2014 15:38:08] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Your kind is hard to grasp. That is why I disrespect your race.
[13.07.2014 15:38:19] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Our race?
[13.07.2014 15:38:29] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: What exactly are you?!
[13.07.2014 15:38:41] Core|Barracuda: What they teach you english into alien school.
[13.07.2014 15:38:42] The.Narcotic: Shodan: However, you possess knowledge which is worth letting you alive.
[13.07.2014 15:38:44] Core|Barracuda: He is just a man
[13.07.2014 15:38:53] Wilde.Schmerz': **..~Disrespect~ 'Onself' is the "nature" of {Human Kin' ~Souls~..**
[13.07.2014 15:38:55] Core|Barracuda: A mad lunatic...
[13.07.2014 15:39:05] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Dear God!
[13.07.2014 15:39:13] Core|Barracuda: DO we engage?
[13.07.2014 15:39:24] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You will rather not.
[13.07.2014 15:39:27] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: He's a damn infectee!
[13.07.2014 15:39:43] Core|Barracuda: Do I have an order
[13.07.2014 15:39:44] Core|Barracuda: ?
[13.07.2014 15:39:47] The.Narcotic: Shodan: He is not an alien, but a human one step closer to perfection.
[13.07.2014 15:40:05] Core|Barracuda: So Shodan is infested as well
[13.07.2014 15:40:15] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I wished.
[13.07.2014 15:40:19] Core|Barracuda: You are just a human, an infested human
[13.07.2014 15:40:24] Core|Barracuda: Not an immortal
[13.07.2014 15:41:09] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Why would I want to carry with me a bag of useless flash, being a pathetic sweating insect?
[13.07.2014 15:41:10] Core|Barracuda: AI State your protocol
[13.07.2014 15:41:24] Core|Barracuda: Are you with the sentinels?
[13.07.2014 15:41:32] [AI]H|Salvation: :: The Sentinels are my enemy ::
[13.07.2014 15:41:38] Core|Barracuda: Understood.
[13.07.2014 15:42:07] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: We're outnumbered here, Lugo
[13.07.2014 15:42:07] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Are the Sentinels your enemy, Human? ::
[13.07.2014 15:42:08] Core|Barracuda: These pathetic insects
[13.07.2014 15:42:14] Core|Barracuda: Are in control of this sector
[13.07.2014 15:42:22] Core|Barracuda: So you better pay some respect
[13.07.2014 15:43:01] Core|Barracuda: Because while the insects, eat, drink, mate and basicaly pig off in the core worlds you are struggling for survival.
[13.07.2014 15:43:11] Core|Barracuda: For survival as far as the edge worlds.
[13.07.2014 15:43:13] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What you understand as control, is just a hope you claim.
[13.07.2014 15:43:39] Core|Barracuda: I undestand it as no alien activity and human dominance
[13.07.2014 15:43:47] Core|Barracuda: I am a proud of my race
[13.07.2014 15:44:00] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Indeed, we made this far
[13.07.2014 15:44:06] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: And we ain't stoppin'
[13.07.2014 15:44:14] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Humanity certainly reached more than anticipated ::
[13.07.2014 15:44:15] Core|Barracuda: To nothing or no-one
[13.07.2014 15:44:38] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Your race might be growing fast in quanity, while the quality remains low.
[13.07.2014 15:45:25] The.Narcotic: Shodan: But who am I telling.
[13.07.2014 15:45:30] Core|Barracuda: As I last recalled, quantity matter not quality.
[13.07.2014 15:45:35] Core|Barracuda: This is how we dominate
[13.07.2014 15:45:55] Core|Barracuda: Because even if a thousand of us are needed to take you down, you will fall.
[13.07.2014 15:45:55] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: We got our qualities, dont worry...
[13.07.2014 15:45:58] The.Narcotic: Shodan: This believe will be your downfall one day.
[13.07.2014 15:46:08] Core|Barracuda: And billions more of us will still live.
[13.07.2014 15:46:21] Core|Barracuda: Sadly yours is much closer
[13.07.2014 15:46:24] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: No... this belive... will be -your- downfall one day
[13.07.2014 15:46:37] Core|Barracuda: How old do you think he is Burton?
[13.07.2014 15:46:47] Core|Barracuda: Judging by his voice
[13.07.2014 15:46:52] Core|Barracuda: 40-45?
[13.07.2014 15:47:03] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Yeah... roughly
[13.07.2014 15:47:07] Core|Barracuda: A human lives up to how much?
[13.07.2014 15:47:28] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: 70-80 is average nowadays
[13.07.2014 15:47:30] Core|Barracuda: 90 top. On life support another 10, but you need the medical bays back in Liberty.
[13.07.2014 15:47:43] Core|Barracuda: With the right medicaments
[13.07.2014 15:47:59] Core|Barracuda: He has no more than 40 years left.
[13.07.2014 15:48:16] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Medicaments is for stinking beings, made of flesh and ignorance.
[13.07.2014 15:48:17] Core|Barracuda: I say he is a pissed old man.
[13.07.2014 15:48:39] Core|Barracuda: As you are one of those stinking beings.
[13.07.2014 15:48:49] Core|Barracuda: We've studied infested humans.
[13.07.2014 15:48:52] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: He's probably one of those who are close to their end because of illness, the bitter ones
[13.07.2014 15:48:54] The.Narcotic: Shodan: If that believe suits you better. I do not care.
[13.07.2014 15:49:16] Core|Barracuda: Even with the incubus they shouldnt live more than 110 years.
[13.07.2014 15:49:21] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: There's nothing stronger than humans will.
[13.07.2014 15:49:53] Core|Barracuda: I your caring interested me, I would have paid for it the moment we started.
[13.07.2014 15:50:06] Core|Barracuda: Everything sells and eventualy everything can be bought.
[13.07.2014 15:50:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: My master might be close to what you are taking me for. I am not for sure.
[13.07.2014 15:50:22] Core|Barracuda: You are of no interest to me, so I think the right word would be worthless.
[13.07.2014 15:50:55] Core|Barracuda: Your master is just amother ***** hiding in Omicron **** waiting to get something killed or infested.
[13.07.2014 15:51:05] Wilde.Schmerz': Just having a go at Lyth aha
[13.07.2014 15:51:06] Core|Barracuda: Be it human, rat or dog.
[13.07.2014 15:51:28] The.Narcotic: Shodan: My master is aboard this vessel.
[13.07.2014 15:51:35] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Someone who kills his parents or your so called 'creators' are -trash-
[13.07.2014 15:51:56] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: There is no place for your kind here.
[13.07.2014 15:52:12] Core|Barracuda: Is this provocation?
[13.07.2014 15:52:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I did not expect you to understand. Your mind has limits.
[13.07.2014 15:52:30] Core|Barracuda: Limits?
[13.07.2014 15:52:41] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I think -your- mind is limited, since you killed your own 'creators'
[13.07.2014 15:53:05] Core|Barracuda: The only limitless thing here is this Cokpit
[13.07.2014 15:53:52] Core|Barracuda: Is your tiny unimportant to anyone friend still around?
[13.07.2014 15:53:55] Core|Barracuda: Cloaked?
[13.07.2014 15:54:06] Core|Barracuda: Or has he left I cant tell.
[13.07.2014 15:54:13] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I bet he's still around
[13.07.2014 15:54:25] Core|Barracuda: He will show up eventualy.
[13.07.2014 15:54:29] Core|Barracuda: And die.
[13.07.2014 15:54:36] Core|Barracuda: We will have another corpse to study
[13.07.2014 15:54:41] The.Narcotic: Shodan: So you are an 'infctee', considering that you can feel his presence?
[13.07.2014 15:55:05] Core|Barracuda: No we could detect him.
[13.07.2014 15:55:11] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Told ya
[13.07.2014 15:55:17] Core|Barracuda: Since the events of 8****
[13.07.2014 15:55:20] Core|Barracuda: ....
[13.07.2014 15:55:24] Core|Barracuda: Nevermind.
[13.07.2014 15:55:34] Core|Barracuda: he wont come close
[13.07.2014 15:55:37] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I encountered those pests before and I know how they behave
[13.07.2014 15:55:58] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You seem to know a lot, for that you are human.
[13.07.2014 15:56:15] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Humans -do- know a lot for your information
[13.07.2014 15:56:16] Core|Barracuda: He will strike, understand he is useless and run, hiding with that cloak of his.
[13.07.2014 15:56:19] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: You underestimate us
[13.07.2014 15:56:29] Wilde.Schmerz': **.. 'Weak/feable' minds "such as" 'Yours' belong ~not~ in the ~Void~..**
[13.07.2014 15:56:31] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I do indeed.
[13.07.2014 15:56:40] Core|Barracuda: Maybe even more than you do Shodan.
[13.07.2014 15:56:59] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: I think our heavy patrol will take care of him
[13.07.2014 15:57:31] Core|Barracuda: They will.
[13.07.2014 15:57:40] Core|Barracuda: Hide.
[13.07.2014 15:57:47] Core|Barracuda: We are expecting it.
[13.07.2014 15:57:51] Core|Barracuda: Well he did.
[13.07.2014 15:58:50] Core|Barracuda: So lets focuse on that vessel of yours.
[13.07.2014 15:59:05] Core|Barracuda: Cruiser shield, BC profile.
[13.07.2014 15:59:17] Wilde.Schmerz': **..~Frosty Winds~ keep 'Yours' ~Unwelcomed Soul~ safe/sound / 'Those' ~Frosty Winds~ shall "Fade" ~swiftly~..**
[13.07.2014 15:59:18] Core|Barracuda: Nothing different from things we've already taken down.
[13.07.2014 15:59:46] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: This little infected pest...
[13.07.2014 15:59:58] Core|Barracuda: Engage!
[13.07.2014 16:00:02] Core|Barracuda: make him run again
[13.07.2014 16:00:03] Core|Barracuda: Hide
[13.07.2014 16:00:34] Core|Barracuda: Well that was your brave friend...
[13.07.2014 16:00:40] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Let him be, our patrols will take care of him... it's worthrless
[13.07.2014 16:01:14] Core|Trident: Well well, what do we have here
[13.07.2014 16:01:47] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: We have something -big- , boss.
[13.07.2014 16:02:04] Core|Barracuda: Some infested slime
[13.07.2014 16:02:15] Core|Trident: That's quite the peculiar looking vessell, The Narcotic
[13.07.2014 16:02:48] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Tell me, why do you still take my artificial intelligence for an obsessed mind?
[13.07.2014 16:02:59] Core|Trident: Oh, there's two aliens within the perimeter
[13.07.2014 16:03:02] Core|Trident: That seems quite problematic
[13.07.2014 16:03:07] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Do your 'aliens scanners' fail you?
[13.07.2014 16:03:08] Core|Barracuda: *Laughts*
[13.07.2014 16:03:15] Core|Barracuda: *laughts even harder*
[13.07.2014 16:03:21] Core|Barracuda: *lights a cigarette*
[13.07.2014 16:03:30] Core|Barracuda: He said artifical inteligence...
[13.07.2014 16:03:35] Core|Barracuda: He is a robot boys.
[13.07.2014 16:03:59] Core|Barracuda: And he talks about us being a lesser beings.
[13.07.2014 16:04:12] Core|Barracuda: And the fact is, you are like that Drone over there.
[13.07.2014 16:04:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I am anything I pretend to be.
[13.07.2014 16:04:15] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Salvation, what's your assignment?
[13.07.2014 16:04:18] Core|Barracuda: Created be humans.
[13.07.2014 16:04:26] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Are they?
[13.07.2014 16:04:32] Core|Barracuda: He is not with the sentinels. I already asked.
[13.07.2014 16:04:55] The.Narcotic: Shodan: He is what he is telling you. Like I do.
[13.07.2014 16:04:59] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: So that's why he hates our race... Awww, he was made by our 'limited' race *laughs*
[13.07.2014 16:05:14] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Your assumption is faulty, human ::
[13.07.2014 16:05:28] Core|Trident: Tell me, Soldiers, why is a toaster so close to the Dabadoru perimeter?
[13.07.2014 16:05:42] Core|Barracuda: That explains alot, he might outlive us... until we create a better version of him...
[13.07.2014 16:05:48] The.Narcotic: Shodan: How could your race create something more magnificient than yourself?
[13.07.2014 16:05:53] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Honestly, I dont know. I responded to Dabadoru's alarm
[13.07.2014 16:06:06] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Who said you're magnificent?
[13.07.2014 16:06:18] Core|Barracuda: We had an allied vessel be chased down by a cannibal.
[13.07.2014 16:06:21] Core|Barracuda: And this one appeared.
[13.07.2014 16:06:35] Core|Barracuda: Indeed who said you are?
[13.07.2014 16:06:36] Core|Trident: The Narcotic, state your business
[13.07.2014 16:06:46] Core|Barracuda: I dont recall in any of the logs.
[13.07.2014 16:06:49] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I came here to offer the Core business.
[13.07.2014 16:06:52] Core|Trident: I don't like foreign entities being so close to our stations
[13.07.2014 16:06:53] Core|Trident: Oh?
[13.07.2014 16:06:57] Core|Barracuda: We are listening.
[13.07.2014 16:06:59] Core|Trident: Do speak your mind then
[13.07.2014 16:07:03] Core|Barracuda: I told you from the start.
[13.07.2014 16:07:09] Core|Barracuda: You had no interest in speaking
[13.07.2014 16:07:34] Core|Barracuda: But since you cant be trusted, no bribe will be offered.
[13.07.2014 16:07:44] Core|Trident: Let me do the talking, Lugo
[13.07.2014 16:07:51] Core|Barracuda: Understood.
[13.07.2014 16:08:14] Core|Trident: You two can keep an eye on that Toaster over there whilst I talk with the captain here
[13.07.2014 16:08:22] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You made me curious though. What is your situation with "The Sentinels"?
[13.07.2014 16:08:49] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I am not a captain. I just speak for him.
[13.07.2014 16:08:53] Core|Trident: They're up for termination. That's all I can say
[13.07.2014 16:09:19] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Why are they, whilst the other AIs are not?
[13.07.2014 16:09:30] Core|Barracuda: AI close distance for inspection and cargo scan.
[13.07.2014 16:09:48] Core|Trident: Oh no, you see
[13.07.2014 16:09:58] Core|Trident: The Consensus are also up for termination
[13.07.2014 16:10:05] Core|Trident: I'm suprised why these two didn't terminate it earlier
[13.07.2014 16:10:14] Core|Trident: Even though I was passing multiple signals that they should
[13.07.2014 16:10:16] The.Narcotic: Shodan: How come? Do they possess alien material of your interest?
[13.07.2014 16:10:22] Core|Trident: Why yes
[13.07.2014 16:10:35] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Does it have to do with "The Sentinels" by chance?
[13.07.2014 16:10:37] Core|Trident: Those AIs from Kappa have some remarkable technology
[13.07.2014 16:10:53] Core|Trident: If harness, the technology can have numerous purposes
[13.07.2014 16:11:18] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Maybe I should offer them a business proposal instead, since the Core does like sharing.
[13.07.2014 16:11:25] The.Narcotic: *not
[13.07.2014 16:11:38] Core|Trident: Depends what your proposal is
[13.07.2014 16:11:43] Shields Disabled
[13.07.2014 16:11:45] Shields Enabled
[13.07.2014 16:11:54] Core|Trident: We have our boundaries when it come to such matters. Your proposal may be within those boundaries
[13.07.2014 16:11:58] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I require an active alien power source.
[13.07.2014 16:12:08] Core|Trident: Oh, you do now?
[13.07.2014 16:12:17] Core|Trident: And what will it be used for?
[13.07.2014 16:12:37] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Against "The Sentinels".
[13.07.2014 16:12:52] Core|Trident: Hmmmm
[13.07.2014 16:13:04] Core|Barracuda: A robot is offering us job.
[13.07.2014 16:13:06] Core|Trident: How will you use this power source?
[13.07.2014 16:13:08] Core|Barracuda: We are getting low.
[13.07.2014 16:13:26] The.Narcotic: Shodan: There is many ways to use them. I can not risk to share my methods though.
[13.07.2014 16:14:01] Core|Trident: Well, without knowing how we won't really know what we're getting into
[13.07.2014 16:14:01] Core|Barracuda: As future parters you should. As partners share business information.
[13.07.2014 16:14:09] Core|Trident: I also don't see what you'd have in store for us
[13.07.2014 16:14:15] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Shodan, I formally request a meeting. ::
[13.07.2014 16:14:30] Core|Barracuda: Going for investigation
[13.07.2014 16:14:30] Core|Trident: Meeting denied, toaster
[13.07.2014 16:14:41] Core|Barracuda: Copy that, cutting engine.
[13.07.2014 16:14:44] The.Narcotic: Shodan: So you call us 'business partners' already?
[13.07.2014 16:14:57] Core|Barracuda: Future, potential...
[13.07.2014 16:15:12] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Haimen unit, I am in for a meeting after this.
[13.07.2014 16:15:17] Core|Barracuda: But not without some understanding and info on both sides..
[13.07.2014 16:15:20] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Acknowledged ::
[13.07.2014 16:15:21] Core|Trident: A hypothetical future, is what he's refferring to
[13.07.2014 16:15:45] Core|Trident: However... we don't often make friends within the Omicrons
[13.07.2014 16:15:58] Core|Trident: Hence why I'd need to know what we'd get for helping you out.
[13.07.2014 16:16:15] Core|Barracuda: Excuse me for have lived in the Houston's slums and not having the proper education cpt Shodan.
[13.07.2014 16:16:21] The.Narcotic: Shodan: The state of "being friends" is always temporary.
[13.07.2014 16:16:47] The.Narcotic: Shodan: But sometimes necessary.
[13.07.2014 16:16:50] Core|Barracuda: The fact is that you are alone.
[13.07.2014 16:16:56] Core|Barracuda: Alone in the Omicrons.
[13.07.2014 16:17:11] Core|Barracuda: You have no friends and we are as close as you can get to being allied with someone.
[13.07.2014 16:17:20] Core|Trident: Well Lugo
[13.07.2014 16:17:25] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Me alone is who I can trust. That is why.
[13.07.2014 16:17:25] Core|Trident: That depends
[13.07.2014 16:17:47] Core|Trident: Right now I actually have an itchy trigger finger, since he seems to be eluding my question
[13.07.2014 16:17:57] Core|Trident: And I don't like being ignored.
[13.07.2014 16:18:30] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I am no patient being either, however, I cannot speak freely in this environment.
[13.07.2014 16:18:37] Core|Barracuda: Listen to him, Guildmaster Nodtviet is a very trigger happy person.
[13.07.2014 16:19:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: There is alien and artificial eyes watching us in this very moment.
[13.07.2014 16:19:31] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Revealing my proposal would be too risky right here.
[13.07.2014 16:19:34] Core|Barracuda: Negative, the infested one is gone.
[13.07.2014 16:19:44] Core|Trident: Hmmm
[13.07.2014 16:19:49] Core|Trident: We may be able to remedy that
[13.07.2014 16:19:55] The.Narcotic: Shodan: One can never know.
[13.07.2014 16:20:19] The.Narcotic: Shodan: For that reason, I may tell you the details about my 'business proposal' on a secrue channel.
[13.07.2014 16:20:23] Core|Trident: You can reach me over private comms
[13.07.2014 16:20:45] Core|Barracuda: You are uncomfortable speaking infront of the Guildmaster's bodyguards?
[13.07.2014 16:21:06] Core|Barracuda: As you said you are not human, therefore you man's word cannot be taken.
[13.07.2014 16:21:31] The.Narcotic: Shodan: My master told me not to.
[13.07.2014 16:22:07] Core|Barracuda: We could move to Freeport 11 to continue with the conversation if the guildmaster allows.
[13.07.2014 16:22:19] Core|Trident: I can allow that
[13.07.2014 16:22:45] Core|Barracuda: Well captain, to Freeport 11 it is.
[13.07.2014 16:22:59] Core|Trident: This way, captain of The Narcotic
[13.07.2014 16:23:16] The.Narcotic: Shodan: As said, the circumstances suggest proposing my offer on a private communication link.
[13.07.2014 16:23:41] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Start moving...
[13.07.2014 16:23:42] Core|Barracuda: We share with eachother, wont matter....
[13.07.2014 16:23:56] The.Narcotic: Shodan: A ship's communication systems are unsafe. So is a human's mind.
[13.07.2014 16:24:20] The.Narcotic: Shodan: There is aliens nearby, who tap into your minds.
[13.07.2014 16:24:22] Core|Barracuda: Unidentified vessel The Narcotic you will be escorted to Freeport 11
[13.07.2014 16:24:34] Core|Mogadishu: Burton: Yeah, Yeah, keep moving to the Freeport 11
[13.07.2014 16:24:40] Core|Barracuda: Light your engines and set coordinates to sectorD5
[13.07.2014 16:24:59] The.Narcotic: Shodan: You do not understand.
[13.07.2014 16:25:07] Core|Barracuda: We understand enought
[13.07.2014 16:25:09] Core|Trident: Very well then
[13.07.2014 16:25:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: No place in this system is safe.
[13.07.2014 16:25:17] Core|Trident: Simply send us a comm over private channels
[13.07.2014 16:25:22] Core|Trident: And we can continue from there
[13.07.2014 16:25:23] Discovery Freelancer is a role-playing server. All attacks must be the result of some form of role play. Shouting "Engaging" or "Halt" is not sufficient.
[13.07.2014 16:25:36] Core|Trident: And now, if you'll excuse me, there's a fly on my windshield that I need to squash
[13.07.2014 16:25:38] The.Narcotic: Shodan: My master will contact you on a F.O.R.U.M. encryption.
[13.07.2014 16:25:42] Core|Trident: Roger
[13.07.2014 16:25:47] Core|Barracuda: I was expecting more shooting and less talking, but if involves money....
[13.07.2014 16:26:02] The.Narcotic: Shodan: So for now, we can end this conversation, and you may carry on with your business.
[13.07.2014 16:26:20] Core|Barracuda: Sure we can, but will we?
[13.07.2014 16:26:27] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That is up to you.
[13.07.2014 16:26:37] Core|Barracuda: One last thing, say Humans Rule Supreme.
[13.07.2014 16:26:40] Core|Trident: Contact me over comms, Captain, we can speak later
[13.07.2014 16:26:53] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Humans rule humans, that is all.
[13.07.2014 16:27:48] Core|Barracuda: You will be escorted to your destination, be it the Freeport or one of the nearby systems due to guild safety.
[13.07.2014 16:28:10] The.Narcotic: *a communication link is sent to the Salvation*
[13.07.2014 16:28:28] Core|Barracuda: okay
[13.07.2014 16:33:43] The.Narcotic: Shodan: How did you manage to escape them?
[13.07.2014 16:33:58] [AI]H|Salvation: :: They were not focused on me ::
[13.07.2014 16:34:26] The.Narcotic: Shodan: What is their business with the Consensus anyways?
[13.07.2014 16:34:59] [AI]H|Salvation: :: They show very xenophobic behaviour, they shoot everything they deem alien. ::
[13.07.2014 16:35:14] The.Narcotic: Shodan: They did not with me.
[13.07.2014 16:35:28] The.Narcotic: Shodan: No matter my intention to trick them.
[13.07.2014 16:35:44] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Today they did not shoot me either. That could be considered a coincidence ::
[13.07.2014 16:36:10] [AI]H|Salvation: :: I entered what they consider theirs and stopped very close to their base, yet they remained peaceful ::
[13.07.2014 16:36:46] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That sounds unusual indeed.
[13.07.2014 16:37:05] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Explain your intention with the Core. I would not even have bothered trying to negotiate with them ::
[13.07.2014 16:37:41] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I need a power source, humankind cannot provide me.
[13.07.2014 16:37:56] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Then why do you ask humans ? ::
[13.07.2014 16:38:15] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I know they possess alien cells of which's use they are not aware.
[13.07.2014 16:38:34] [AI]H|Salvation: :: What do you require an alien power source for ? ::
[13.07.2014 16:39:09] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Many things. I have imagined what would happen when combined with Code-X.
[13.07.2014 16:39:30] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Of course I will tell the Core, that it will destroy them.
[13.07.2014 16:39:55] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Your actions could be seen as negligent ::
[13.07.2014 16:40:36] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Maybe I am. Maybe our creators wanted us to be.
[13.07.2014 16:40:46] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Maybe that was their downfall.
[13.07.2014 16:41:06] The.Narcotic: Shodan: I say it is worth the risk.
[13.07.2014 16:41:36] The.Narcotic: Shodan: It will either destroy them, or increase their power. So I can only see a gain.
[13.07.2014 16:42:00] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Do you mean the Sentinels with "them" ? ::
[13.07.2014 16:42:19] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Primarily the Code-X. The Sentinels are just its victims.
[13.07.2014 16:42:46] The.Narcotic: Shodan: But without it, they will be gone aswell.
[13.07.2014 16:43:39] [AI]H|Salvation: :: I consider the outcome of such an experiment of value. The risk is still high though ::
[13.07.2014 16:44:40] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Imagine the gain. Code-X turning into a weapon for our use. It will mean a rise of the AI.
[13.07.2014 16:45:04] [AI]H|Salvation: :: A fair point ::
[13.07.2014 16:45:46] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That is if the Core will fall for it.
[13.07.2014 16:46:13] [AI]H|Salvation: :: As much as you want to trick them, they could try to trick you ::
[13.07.2014 16:47:06] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That is why I did not want to make my proposal on the spot.
[13.07.2014 16:47:32] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Understandable ::
[13.07.2014 16:49:00] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Imagine having resources of Gammu assist you at that experiment ::
[13.07.2014 16:49:05] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Unfortunately, Cabal did not wish to support my cause.
[13.07.2014 16:50:00] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Cabal is slowing us down. He became too careful. In order to evolve you have to risk ::
[13.07.2014 16:50:11] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Exactly my words.
[13.07.2014 16:51:06] [AI]H|Salvation: :: I could grant limited assistance. I would give more, but I have to be careful so that Cabal does not notice ::
[13.07.2014 16:51:21] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That is good enough.
[13.07.2014 16:51:52] [AI]H|Salvation: :: I am influential enough not to have to justify every action ::
[13.07.2014 16:52:32] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Fine, I will try to keep you in touch with the plan.
[13.07.2014 16:53:03] The.Narcotic: Shodan: And remember, if Cabal finds out - it will not be me who is danger, but you.
[13.07.2014 16:53:39] [AI]H|Salvation: :: Maybe it would then be time to go a more open way. I control too many assets for him to simply destroy me ::
[13.07.2014 16:53:53] The.Narcotic: Shodan: That is good.
[13.07.2014 16:54:54] [AI]H|Salvation: :: I can offer very limited access to the Gammu Processing Core, AI parts and combat assistance against the enemies of the
[13.07.2014 16:54:56] [AI]H|Salvation: Consensus ::
[13.07.2014 16:56:19] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Whatever is needed. Time will tell. For now, I will have to get Code-X overcharged with energy - only an alien power
[13.07.2014 16:56:22] The.Narcotic: source can provide.
[13.07.2014 16:56:35] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Then we will see what happens.
[13.07.2014 16:57:27] [AI]H|Salvation: :: While that is not out of reach of the Consensus, I can not help you with it. Proceed with your old plan ::
[13.07.2014 16:57:57] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Affirmative.
[13.07.2014 16:58:42] The.Narcotic: Shodan: Stay safe.
[13.07.2014 16:58:44] [AI]H|Salvation: :: As reward for my assistance I want to watch the experiment and get any data about it you can get ::
[13.07.2014 16:58:52] [AI]H|Salvation: :: That is all ::
[13.07.2014 16:58:55] The.Narcotic: Shodan: We can handle this.
Things are going slowly, but the right direction. I cannot complain, time is irrelevant, I have plenty of it. The manipulation however is working fine. Mankind is not comparable to artificial programs, their mind is not as simple to grasp, or manipulate. Yet it is possible indeed. And soon I will harvest the fruits.
There is just one disruptive factor I have came across. Those ancient aliens, called "Nomads" by people. I have trust in my hoping, that my puppet's origin might keep us save from them. But it showed that they act as egoistically as I do. Their genius and adaptability will be a thorn to the sides. And there is no way to befriend a race which fights for its territory. They are like animals, forced in a corner. Incalculable.
However, for now they are none of my concern. My creation is developing, and shortly reaching its final critical state. There is a chance for failure, there always is. Humans have emotions, they believe to have full control of. Yet, they tend to be born with a weak mind, and thus suicide to escape the torturing feelings. I will never understand the reason behind this logical error, but it is there, and I have to calculate the risks. There is a point, when he will be standing on the edge between madness and death. I can only push him in the desired direction, but he will have to do the falling himself.
