Following the establishment of the truce "factions" of redpills began to surface throughout Zion. The Machines began recruiting redpills and forming factions of their own to counter the efforts of Zion which gave birth to a cold war.

The Merovingian, always keeping a watchful eye on all Mega City business, stuck his hands into the surging redpill populations as well and inserted redpill factions into his organization. Enticing them with $information, power, and free reign throughout the matrix just as long as they served him. For those that would choose to betray him, they would die.

Redpills that rejected the way of Zion quickly migrated to the Merovingian. More and more redpill factions surfaced in his organization. Many with different trades and interests. Some political and chose not to get involved with the dirty work while others didn't mind the field operations. With the Merovingian's resources, his redpills were trained in business, espionage, and combat like many of his most trusted Exiles.

Though the Merovingian's organization expanded, they were still not part of the truce. They were enemies of the system which put them right in the crosshairs of the Zionist and Machinist.

The Merovingian knew that if war broke out again he would indeed profit from it but his existence would be at stake. If Zion won it would mean the end of the matrix... and if the Machines were to wipe out Zion for good, they could launch a full scale assault on the entire Exile population and the redpills aligned with them.

So the Merovingian took more aggressive measures. He strengthen his organization with redpill factions dedicated to combating Zion and Machine forces at all cost.

Shortly after Inguss' arrival into the Merovingian's organization...Our hovercrafts navigate through the canyon on a routine broadcast while jacked into the matrix as well as aid any fellow Merovingian operatives in need of assistance in the real.

We have EMP turrets throughout the canyon such as key navigational points to counter any hostile threats. We travel through the sewers only when necessary. Due to the increased hovercraft traffic and Sentinel patrols and seeing that the war is back... the sewers must be a mad house.

"The body cannot live without the mind"

Many of our fellow Merovingian operatives spend so much time in the matrix that they don't bother to think about the measures that must be taken to ensure our survival in the real. That is what we think about every single day.

Now here we are. Maintaining a presence on all three sectors of the matrix for the sake of the Merovingian's organization. We've been pitted against the best of them and have lost many friends and outstanding operatives along the way due to the cold war, but we're still standing.
