 		Summary
So.. Just to keep this thread going for archival purposes...

Edwin went to Berlin, found a comatose morcar in the hotel, and brought down the machine. he contacted teh queen to get them safely home, but his computer was compromised, evidenced by an unauthorized entry. The queen's "envoy" came and forced him out of the room. he heard yelling. He sensed something wasn't right.. went back to the room, and sent out a barrage of thoroughly confusing e-mails about what was actually there.
Someone has Edwin's computer and is sending out decoy messages from his account. [ elilah] According to those messages, Edwin is now back in the states with the queen for questioning and Morcar is still out there. No one knows where he is. We are currently waiting for a stateside Contact number for Edwin/ the queen. Which should be "impossible to miss".

One theory: the envoy was a hoax of the Korp and they have Edwin now
Other theory: The queen is FULLY corrupt, and the envoy is evil and kidnapping.
Third theory: Queen has Edwin and Morcar's best interests at heart, but her agents used suspicious methods.

 		-I sent Dom an email this morning regarding Delilah.

-Dear Domenic,

Though I tend to react emotionally before logically thinking things
through, I've done a rather good job in the face of this situation (even
if I feel a bit like Hunter S. Thompson).
I wasn't a part of the AOL chat you had with others in the community, but
I was able to read a transcript of it. I was mildly surprised to hear
that the person calling herself Delilah was stating that she wasn't a
member of the Deck. Is that something that should make us feel concern?
Would a Queen (or any card, for that matter) use an envoy or other agent
that wasn't a Deck member? Somehow I find that mildly disconcerting.

As for everything else, I want to thank you for your patience with us.
We're finding ourselves a bit adrift, and it's not easy for those of us
that don't have their sea legs.

Sincerely,
Psyche-


He replied with a rather short answer.

Quote:
Please let me be clear: Delilah is not one of us. Choose wisely.


That puts a very direct light on some assumptions.-

 		Box
The Korp has both the box and Morcar.
This is their official press release via their website, thekorporation.net

KORPORATION PRESS RELEASE

THE KORPORATION
http://www.thekorporation.net
E-mail: infoSPLATthekorporation.net

KORPORATION COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF DECK PROPERTIES

January 31, 2008 – Strengthening its position as a worldwide sales leader and manufacturer of high-quality products and life-altering services, The Korporation is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of both an experimental Deck device known as "The Box" and a low-ranking card, the Four of Spades.

The acquisition of this asset and personnel will bring additional competence, metaphysical know-how and rabbit-hole capabilities complementary to The Korporation's existing base of marketing and design expertise. The Four of Spades' knowledge base ranges from mania to dementia, with advanced experience in subjection to various types of physically, mentally and spiritually damaging testing. This will serve him well in the upcoming weeks.

Korporation representatives discovered "The Box" during a recent visit to the temporary residence of The Four of Spades. Based on previously set relationship levels, certain Korporation personnel let themselves into the room, at which point the device and the Four of Spades, who was unconscious on a nearby bed, were acquired.

While such a willing participant in demanding experiments is usually taken for granted, once this subject releases the necessary information, no doubt certain emotional attachments will make the Four of Spades a highly prized negotiating tool. Those who believe they have the wherewithal to negotiate his release can contact us through the appropriate channels. Until such a time, the Four of Spades remains capital property of The Korporation.

About The Korporation
The Korporation is power.

About the Four of Spades
The Four of Spades is largely insane, a husk of a functioning human being, as a result of years of careless laboratory testing by blood relatives. While at many times incoherent and typically vengeful, recent attempts to stabilize Morcar leave Korporation staff scientists to be optimistic about his return to a more normal, easily manipulated state.

 		Dom came into voice chat tonight. This is what I recall, as he was speaking on mic... and had the option to not let other record him enabled. Sneaky Dom!

I will be sending a copy of this to Dom to see if he disagrees with anything. None of this is exact wording.

I went to Phoenix, AZ to look for Jonah and he is missing. He is in trouble.

We must keep a lookout for rogue Passengers. Rogue does not necessarily mean someone that is being anti-Deck or pro-Korp. It could be someone providing distraction.

The Aces and I do not know what Delilah's affiliation is. She is not Deck. Keep this in mind and be cautious with her.

 		Sorry for the double post.

I've been updating the wiki and have it mostly caught up to current events. There are a few details yet to be added, mostly concerning all of the e-mails with Delilah. PLEASE READ THIS. I stress this because (no offense to her), there are a few inaccuracies and things left out in Baka.Vaka's summary.

The last thing we need is for inaccurate information to be accepted as fact. It's hard enough to keep all of the true info straight as it is with this active week! If I forgot anything important, please PM me and I will correct it.

It's not long, and I'm even linking it directly to the events of that night, so there's no need to wade through all of Morcar's wiki page. Very Happy

 		We can't be sure, but it doesn't seem like it at the moment.
