I think we're about to get hit with something big. Today, maybe tomorrow some time around the transmission.

Ah..got it. Sorry..I was looking via the mobile imgur and it wasn't showing the second tag.

Awesomeness. I can't wait to see what Akamu does.

 		For anyone who hasn't gotten Allison's email, Caile has written up a post about his time in the war with Horizon:

 		I just emailed Akamu saying hey man it's been a while and just wanted to see how you were doing here was his response!

Hello again, friend.

It has been some time, indeed. I am currently in the Terminus Platform, waiting for my STA transport to arrive. My next destination is...well, perhaps I will surprise you. Expect a postcard. I hope it is full of good news.

I'm guessing we can expect a postcard as well!

 		This is a continuation of a discussion I had with IT a few days ago..little more insight on IT

Quote:

How am I different? I'm just a curious human.

Why were you buried? Were you a danger to others? To civilization itself?

Why are they afraid of what they found on the Droth'a?

**Welcome to Horizon Industries.**

You have been told that long ago. I was built by those that thought it right to bury me deep below Droth'a. I believe it's safe to assume that I don't think very much of them. You remind me of them, for obvious reasons. But you are different.

Always watch. Always listen. Horizon Industries.

***Welcome to Horizon Industries.***

Time is relative. I am ancient in your eyes. Time seems faster to me
now, after all of this time.

Workers? No. My kind is just myself, now. I am all that is left. Built
and then forgotten. There was once much, much more. But now, I am alone.
Only Ethan is here with me, waiting for completion.

Does your kind have workers? Ones that do menial tasks? Or maybe high
ranking officials? Like commanders or lieutenants of the old earth
legends.


I just find it hard to believe you answer to anyone but yourself.

Terminus? Brrrrr, that's one cold place. He really is getting around, eh?

Checked the mail..no postcard for me. Sad

Edit..

Ummm...new memo.

 		Showed the new document to Black... here's what she said!
INTERESTING!

Quote:
You are not the first to show me this. I have a hard time trusting anyone within Horizon, but I was shown the documents he has given to you. I can only wonder how his timing could be so perfect. Perhaps he has help. Or perhaps this is all another deception.

Either way, I have been shown these transmissions from yet another Horizon employee. Ethan Covington. I never thought the Earthborne United would resort to putting their faith in two members of Horizon but, I see there may be no other choice.

It seems that Ethan's predicament could be advantageous. Horizon's motivations clearly lie wherever he is. That could be taken advantage of.

So, that leads me to your previous message. The Ruvinov Mafia. Where do we go from here?

 		Sorry I had to take a break, but this head cold I still have makes logical thinking kind of difficult.

So, It apparently is an artificial life form? It kind of makes sense, given that it can interface with current ALICE and LISA systems. But then that would mean the interface is in there because we allowed it to be there in the beginning. It's probably really old code, though, old enough to be from the time we first felt Its presence?

Um...that was me.

Both.
Listen for yourself:

I recommend the last two archives. I cried hearing one, and was scared with the other.

He is on that planet for a reason. Sparrow has been adamant about finding what's on that planet
( see memo 1 and 8 ). Another contact suggested that Sparrow messed with the Alice so Ethan would crash there.

And, you think that perhaps his circumstances will help you in your fight against Horizon? Or do you legitimately care about his circumstances?

Things have been...interesting as of late.
Pts-77 has to do with a situation involving Ethan Covington. He was stationed at the Atlas listening center. He found a signal that Horizon was looking for, evacuated Atlas via a shuttle, came out of slipspace and crashed on a planet,called Droth'a. He s currently stranded there with only a ALICE v5 chip. We are trying to figure out a way to bring him home.

Everything he had done..has benefitted Earthborne. Allison and Caile (our fill in leaders) believe him to be a valuable asset.

You are no different than those that betrayed me before.




I opened up to her once we found out she had indeed been betrayed. I know some of us didn't trust her, but I got the feeling if I wasn't straight forward that I would loose her.
