Maruth was seen in the Richland area earlier. Seems she wanted some help with a new look and to tell people of her past. Here's what she wanted to share:
Wed Dec 27 12:17:39 2006 [Area] Maruth: It times past, before the truce, I was tasked with helping keep those who Slumber, asleep.
Wed Dec 27 12:18:25 2006 [Area] Maruth: Along with the circumstances of physical contact, which I have just conveyed to you, my gaze has a similar effect, with some other varying effects of course.
Wed Dec 27 12:18:58 2006 [Area] SureShot187: putting people to "sleep" with ur eyes?
Wed Dec 27 12:19:07 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: that DOES seem like it could be helpful....if you could turn it off. I assume you can't?
Wed Dec 27 12:19:33 2006 [Area] Maruth: Yes. I am able to render those who meet my gaze, unconscious.
Wed Dec 27 12:19:43 2006 [Area] Maruth: And no, I am unable to 'turn it off'.
Wed Dec 27 12:19:49 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Why not use this gift?
Wed Dec 27 12:20:46 2006 [Area] Maruth: It is no longer effective against those who slumber. At least, not as it once was. You see, when I was still part of the system, as it were, part of the ability of my gaze was such that the person receiving my gaze would have their memory modified.
Wed Dec 27 12:21:41 2006 [Area] Maruth: Modified in such a way, that they would not recall meeting me. However, because of this integral loss of code, it no longer is limited to specifically the memory of my acquaintance. It could, in theory, purge all of their memories.
Wed Dec 27 12:22:19 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Forgive my lateness memory
Wed Dec 27 12:22:37 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: that could be a major strike at an enemy though. and welcome sec
Wed Dec 27 12:22:37 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: maruth
Wed Dec 27 12:22:42 2006 [Area] SureShot187: interesting Maruth ... very interesting
Wed Dec 27 12:22:49 2006 [Area] Maruth: As well, the effect it may have on someone who has been awakened is completely unknown. For all I know, it could kill them.
Wed Dec 27 12:23:04 2006 [Area] SureShot187: This can be a good thing ... but of course bad as well
Wed Dec 27 12:23:27 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: have you ever done this to someone?
Wed Dec 27 12:23:33 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Never been tested i suppose eh Maruth on a redpill?
Wed Dec 27 12:23:33 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: I mean
Wed Dec 27 12:23:50 2006 [Area] Maruth: Imagine for a moment that I am in combat, and that in the throws of combat, my visor is to come off. Should I look at anyone, including those who have sided with me, it would effect them as well.
Wed Dec 27 12:24:11 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: What is this?
Wed Dec 27 12:24:21 2006 [Area] Maruth: I have done it to those who Slumber, however that was before my...shall we say...'liberation'.
Wed Dec 27 12:24:36 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Perhaps we could "test" this on somebody ... somebody you don't like
Wed Dec 27 12:25:15 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Maybe an Exile?
Wed Dec 27 12:25:17 2006 [Area] SureShot187: A redpill maybe
Wed Dec 27 12:25:18 2006 [Area] Maruth: Are you familiar with how the system handles exiles who attempt to use their former abilities?
Wed Dec 27 12:25:23 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Newly awakened
Wed Dec 27 12:25:40 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I believe it depends on their powers
Wed Dec 27 12:25:44 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: perhaps one of those dark evolution people that were so rude earlier.
Wed Dec 27 12:26:00 2006 [Area] SureShot187: or their function
Wed Dec 27 12:26:09 2006 [Area] SureShot187: purpose
Wed Dec 27 12:26:25 2006 [Area] Maruth: I suppose so, Child, however those who attempt to use their former abilities, in the cases where it matters, they are sought out and dealt with. I do not wish to come to that end.
Wed Dec 27 12:26:25 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: how does it handle them Maruth?
Wed Dec 27 12:26:34 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Sounds to me like your purpose was quite important.
Wed Dec 27 12:26:49 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: So maruth you where once an exile?
Wed Dec 27 12:27:06 2006 [Area] Maruth: Indeed, it was. However, since the formation of the Truce, I was no longer needed to keep the masses in Slumber. They were free to awaken if they chose to.
Wed Dec 27 12:27:30 2006 [Area] Maruth: Incorrect, Child. I am an exile, in a manner of speaking. I was once a program of the system.
Wed Dec 27 12:27:40 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Ah
Wed Dec 27 12:27:51 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I see ... well you don't want to end up being hunted by your own kind now do you
Wed Dec 27 12:28:02 2006 [Area] Maruth: However, I could not bare to abandon my children, and so I fled when I was faced with deletion and aligned myself with the cause of the Precious Children.
Wed Dec 27 12:28:29 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Precious Children ... us redpills?
Wed Dec 27 12:29:04 2006 [Area] Maruth: Well, sort of. You see, it is a term of endearment much like I refer to you as 'Child'.
Wed Dec 27 12:29:42 2006 [Area] Maruth: 'Precious Children' or 'Precious Child' is a term of endearment reserved for those who are the closest to me; Cryptos and Veil.
Wed Dec 27 12:30:10 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I see
Wed Dec 27 12:30:20 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Makes more sense now.
Wed Dec 27 12:30:40 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: agreed
Wed Dec 27 12:30:42 2006 [Area] Maruth: Hmmmm...the number of the awakened has drastically increased since our arrival here.
Wed Dec 27 12:31:22 2006 [Area] SureShot187: So if you are already considered an exile Maruth .... why not use ur powers to test them?
Wed Dec 27 12:31:48 2006 [Area] Maruth: Because I concern myself over the well-being of my children. Opposing, or not.
Wed Dec 27 12:31:52 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Aren't all exiles (if caught) ... terminated?
Wed Dec 27 12:32:17 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Maruth is not a threat to the system
Wed Dec 27 12:32:24 2006 [Area] Maruth: Correct, Child.
Wed Dec 27 12:32:28 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: So the system can allow her survival
Wed Dec 27 12:32:44 2006 [Area] Maruth: I am not a threat, because I have, as of yet, relented to use my abilities.
Wed Dec 27 12:32:57 2006 [Area] SureShot187: So you are an exile with an exception ... so to speak
Wed Dec 27 12:33:11 2006 [Area] Maruth: In a manner of speaking, yes.
Wed Dec 27 12:33:22 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Interesting
Wed Dec 27 12:33:53 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: and as long as you refrain from using your abilities, you're not in danger from the system?
Wed Dec 27 12:33:53 2006 [Area] SureShot187: They should have a different term to associate what you really are then.
Wed Dec 27 12:34:12 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Accepted exile hehe
Wed Dec 27 12:34:25 2006 [Area] SureShot187: exiles then ... is a vague definition
Wed Dec 27 12:34:35 2006 [Area] Maruth: Yes, as long as I refrain from re-executing those old lines of code, I am said to be 'tolerable'.
Wed Dec 27 12:34:52 2006 [Area] SureShot187: tolerable exile?
Wed Dec 27 12:35:18 2006 [Area] Maruth: I believe the term Father would use is, 'Acceptable Loss'.
Wed Dec 27 12:35:22 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: seems like it should be a contradiction in terms, but I can see how it works that way
Wed Dec 27 12:35:30 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I mean, I know what you mean but they should have a special word to associate with you
Wed Dec 27 12:35:41 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: agreed
Wed Dec 27 12:35:44 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Well does it really matter what we call her?
Wed Dec 27 12:35:50 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: She is maruth
Wed Dec 27 12:36:08 2006 [Area] SureShot187: That isn't what i mean SECURITY
Wed Dec 27 12:36:25 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I mean the term exile is just so open and vague
Wed Dec 27 12:36:34 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: oh well
Wed Dec 27 12:36:41 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: true...but the negative associations we have for exiles rather make me want something more palatable to call her by
Wed Dec 27 12:36:53 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: no offense
Wed Dec 27 12:37:04 2006 [Area] Maruth: None taken, Child.
Wed Dec 27 12:37:24 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Right, i mean the term exile is sorta demeaning don't you think Maruth?
Wed Dec 27 12:37:38 2006 [Area] Maruth: It is merely a word.
Wed Dec 27 12:38:00 2006 [Area] SureShot187: All words have meaning tho...
Wed Dec 27 12:38:10 2006 [Area] Maruth: Indeed, they do.
Wed Dec 27 12:38:37 2006 [Area] Maruth: Are you insinuating that you wish to refer to me by another name?
Wed Dec 27 12:38:49 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I do
Wed Dec 27 12:38:50 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: non-integrated program? 
Wed Dec 27 12:39:06 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I do not wish to refer to you as an "exile"
Wed Dec 27 12:39:13 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: or, simply, program
Wed Dec 27 12:39:18 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Too general of a meaning
Wed Dec 27 12:39:22 2006 [Area] Maruth: Perhaps an acronym?
Wed Dec 27 12:39:22 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: true
Wed Dec 27 12:39:34 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Sure
Wed Dec 27 12:39:39 2006 [Area] SureShot187: such as?
Wed Dec 27 12:39:52 2006 [Area] Maruth: Self-Reliant Executable.
Wed Dec 27 12:40:23 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Self-Reliant eh?
Wed Dec 27 12:40:29 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: I like that...hard to make an acronym from it though.
Wed Dec 27 12:40:38 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: SRE
Wed Dec 27 12:40:41 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: hehe
Wed Dec 27 12:40:57 2006 [Area] Maruth: 'SRE'. Pronounced 'Sire'.
Wed Dec 27 12:41:11 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Sire
Wed Dec 27 12:41:19 2006 [Area] SureShot187: as in "noble"
Wed Dec 27 12:41:24 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: it's acceptable
Wed Dec 27 12:41:29 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: I like it
Wed Dec 27 12:41:41 2006 [Area] SureShot187: that will work Sire
Wed Dec 27 12:41:59 2006 [Area] Maruth: Yes, it also ties in with the fact I refer to others as Children. As though I have 'sired' you all.
Wed Dec 27 12:42:22 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I like it
Wed Dec 27 12:42:32 2006 [Area] Maruth: However, you need not call me 'Sire'. 'Maruth' is quite fine, if you wish.
Wed Dec 27 12:42:43 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Much better than referring to you as an exile.
Wed Dec 27 12:43:10 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: yes, agreed
Wed Dec 27 12:43:39 2006 [Area] Maruth: Hmmmm...I wonder what others would think of this? Perhaps you could present this proposal to others? I believe you have a means of conversing with others en masse?
Wed Dec 27 12:44:04 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I do yes
Wed Dec 27 12:44:19 2006 [Area] Maruth: I am curious as to what their opinions of it would be.
Wed Dec 27 12:44:46 2006 [Area] Maruth: Perhaps they would have a better idea? I can only imagine what those who oppose us would propose.
Wed Dec 27 12:44:54 2006 [Area] SureShot187: Would you like only the others devoted to the machine and/or cyph org to know ... or everybody in all organizations?
Wed Dec 27 12:45:33 2006 [Area] Maruth: Present it to everyone to review. I see no reason why others should be restricted from contributing.
Wed Dec 27 12:45:59 2006 [Area] SureShot187: This conversation has been recorded to my data pad
Wed Dec 27 12:46:05 2006 [Area] MemoryWlPE: excellent
Wed Dec 27 12:46:13 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: SECURlTY smiles.
Wed Dec 27 12:46:14 2006 [Area] Maruth: I believe there is a specific channel of communication for all instances of The Dream. Perhaps you could use that.
Wed Dec 27 12:46:14 2006 [Area] SureShot187: I shall use it to inform the others
Wed Dec 27 12:46:47 2006 [Area] Maruth: Most excellent. Sadly, Children, I must take my leave. I have more work to attend to.
Wed Dec 27 12:46:50 2006 [Area] SureShot187: If that is alright with you of course Sire?
Wed Dec 27 12:47:02 2006 [Area] SECURlTY: Take care of yourself maruth
Wed Dec 27 12:47:08 2006 [Area] Maruth: Again, thank you all for your assistance. And yes, Child, that will do nicely.
SECURITY ... or shall we say orion1 from DE. You've been found out and the higher ups are informed.
