 		Meanwhile, I got confirmation that Theophilus is future Theo, not present Brackin-Theo. When I asked him to email me:

email into the past is impossible.

Find another way.

 		I'd contact him again and say something to the effect of "No, I was trying to reach OUR Theo, not future Theo."

Theophilus says: All of these agents are known to us. But this is good work - keep it up. This "Trace" will destroy himself in time.



Look out, Trace, we're out to getcha!


If only you knew the half of it, if only you knew what i do wolfhawk, trust me the trace of today is very close to extinction, and what happens after that time, well that is an uncharted road waiting to be walked on

 		It's good, contacting the Theophilus of the future may be what I need to do anyway. Since I could think of no better, I sent him this in reply:

 		By the way, Trace, I did respond to your last email. I have been waiting for more communication from you. Maybe they are able to somehow read our past emails too!!!! Shocked

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

As you know there is a trust system built into this interface There is also a list of agents who are most trusted I am fairly high on the list but the figure next to my name doesnt correspond to the number of people that trust me It is one higher

I emailed the system maintenance thinking it was a problem their end They say it is a problem with the feed Do you know anything of this?

Surprised !

 		Cool message from (recently confirmed) future-Theo. Phil's alive!

Theophilus says: Adam. Now there is a name I have not heard in a very long time. A very long time.

Be careful with this Chris Brown. I have had difficulty keeping his activities under our watch.

As for Mr. Moore, well lets just say his location is no mystery at all to me, but for your own protection I can not tell you more, it would be damaging to the next stage of the operation. By all means though, continue your investigation. I trust it will be VERY enlightening.

 		Got a reply from Theo
Spanked again (see my Foo post)
Actually, this reply isn't as bad as the one I got from Foo.

My note to Theo:

Quote:
Brother Theo,

I have come to regret my rash messages to and about you. I realize that I don't know enough about you to make such judgements. I just worry about whether in an attempt to keep everyone safe, the corporation has gone too far. I've contacted Foo to ask about this.

Because of my concern, I thought that maybe there was a big conspiracy going on with the corporation, and that you were a mole that we were meant to trust but was selling everyone out. I realize you owe me no explanations, and that anything you say is a risk, but I say with all sincerity that I am a trustworthy individual. If I say I shall not repeat what you tell me, I mean that. In our time, I have even gone so far as to keep quiet at places of employment when I had information to that could have taken someone down, simply because I didn't feel I could betray my loyalties.

That being said, what assurances do I have that if I align myself with you, I will not be doing a bad thing for the future of us all?

 		Got a reply from Theo, to my question. Well done on the translation, Wang Razz

Lies upon lies it would seem. Thank you.
Not everything that is seen is to be believed.
I do not have the answer to your question,
but I will find out from those that do.
Remember that "respect is given, trust is earned".

Something along the lines of 'Who watches the watchmen?' It's a pretty famous quote - there's an article all about it on the Wiki.

 		Nope, but Theo did claim that at some point he want's me to contact someone, and that it might be dangerous...

I'm not scared =P

 		Got the following from Theophilus explaining the Brotherhood / Underground relationship, as well as setting up what the last one is.

Quote:
The Brotherhood are of the underground just as a man is of the human race. But not all humans are men, nor Deus City citizens, nor Grey District residents, nor Undergrounders, nor Brotherhood. You have one answer only.

Past - Present - Future

You have the latter. The middle is known. The past is obscured from view.


Making assumptions from previous letter exchanges with other characters, the Brotherhood is the religious nutjob wing of the Underground resistance. What we are charged with finding is what this organization was known as in the past, back when Mr. Wright Sr. was killed. This information will probably tell us much, and this organization is probably tied with Sr's death--either he caused it, or he was a turncoat member (hence the association with Brackin).
