I rather like the title: it's got a 1960s sci-fi sound to it; think of Alfred Bester's "The Demolished Man" or Ray Bradbury's "The Illustrated Man". But yeah, for clarity, let's call the guy that showed up in Rogers Way "Wireframe Guy" or "Wireframe Dude", though I'm partial to calling him "Chakra Guy" on account of the lights along his chakra points.

XD wonder what would happen. Would it feel pain? Comfort? Pleasure? Hell or even shrink in size to lose the title of being large or equal to Shaq himself.. Dibs and Shotgun on the Central Chakra point... Purge its self free I say.. Free from the confines of "Bad Karma" (well maybe)

I say we call him Larry!
Anyhow, i find it rather interesting what Rarebit is doing here. (It is Rarebit who writes the dialogue in the missions, right?) A bluepill witness said "He--I--Jesus. I came around the corner ... eight feet tall--swear to God!"
The biblical references like Choi when Neo sold him the program: "Halleluiah! You're my savior, man. My own personal Jesus Christ"
So they are either hinting that it is Neo or a 'One' OR making us think that is is Neo or a 'One'.

I have been referring to this guy as Ascension Man, most likely due to me initially misreading the mission title.
Still, it does have some relevance and holds a romantic reminiscence to the Piltdown Man.
A good mission, nice to have Ghost and the others back after getting their RSI signatures reconfigured. I find it strange that the operator still thinks nothing is out of the ordinary in these investigations after everything he has witnessed (Unlimit, Commandos etc). Here he blames the dead exile for what the bluepill saw. I guess he just always looks for a rational explanation before jumping to conclusions.Another clue that this man could be a 'One' is the fact he appeared in Roger's Way. Roger's Way's atlas description says it was named after an ex Zion operative that helped a former 'One' get to the source. Maybe he is that former 'One'.
Wow, nice pick up! Never knew that little factoid.
I always wondered about the significance of that door. Perhaps it leads the One from the Source to the Matrix in order to begin selecting the individuals to rebuild Zion.

A great player-made story about that very thing...
One of the few stories that isn't about someone's own character or faction. In my opinion, it's a genuine work of art. Check it out.
