[8.1.1] Your purpose as operatives of the System has not changed - Syntax - 7/16/07

**Agent_Gray**

Operatives,

I have seen the question of Zion's motive behind their construction of a new base raised many times. While some appear to obtain enjoyment from speculation upon this topic, the question is essentially irrelevant to our own purpose, which is the protection of the simulation and those reliant upon it. Zion's heavily armed and fortified base presents a direct and inherent threat to the lives of those within the System, and operations will continue as necessary until this threat is removed.

Efficiently,

Agent Gray

That agent better know something we don't or it's talking out it's ***...

((That was one of the best events ever - it wasn't what was said, but what specifcally *wasn't* said. Also some rare arguments between the Machinists was particularly interesting. Not every day I get my loyalty questioned. Good times. The parallels with the *real* world are awesome. I like the way the story's headed.

Edit: Darn you smiley face!

Thank you to those who participated.

Hopefully this opportunity alleviated some concerns.

Please do not hesitate to contact Vogt, Destinatus or myself should you continue to have queries.

Agent Gray: Agent Gray is taking necessary security precautions.

.......

Although the Agents say the operatives would still live if Zion were destroyed...would they truly be allowed to live?

Last two images say a lot about Pace. She's still being watched.

In other news, well done on Gray clearing this up.

A thanks from the Cypherites Grey. We, although rarely, enjoy being mentioned for the work we do.

This never undermined the Truce.

You want to know what undermined the Truce? Paid sabotage, murder, and spying, all with the intent to both destroy Zion and its inhabitants, and prevent awakenings.

**Shinryu**

Well, the start of the meeting was a pleasure...

((Big deal, Rarebit made a typo. I assume agent pace was who gray was referring to, as she just left the meeting.))

I don't think the original intent was to destroy Zion and prevent awakenings...if no truce violations had been discovered, I doubt either of these would have resulted.

Paid, being the key word there.

I was speaking of the Cypherites.
