 		Bishop replyed

Quote:
Bishop says: Wow thanks friend! So you think this "brotherhood" is real? I'll run these names through my search and destroy and see what it comes up with - especially those two interesting ones. Oh, except for the president - I uh think he might notice, and I'm pretty sure I know everything I want to about him already. "Foo" that's catchy - good thing Culturecorp hasn't caught on to that one huh? hehehe. Oh and by the by, 90% of the fallout really only lasts about 48 hours and that was when I was like six - so it's not like there are roving bands of mutants out there or anything. At least I don't think so...

 		I think he slipped up a bit there - Foo is Foo in the DC forums. Unless Bishop never made the connection.

 		It appears I have been noticed:

eldoradowatcher says: Quite an impressive list of people that seem to trust you. May I ask what you have done to earn the trust of all these agents?

My reply:

It seems I display "common sense" and "levelheadedness." At least that is what those who have contacted me directly have said.

 		From Father Beck
Quote:
Father Beck says: Time indeed! It is my great pleasure to speak with you about the nature of truth. I would caution you from using the word "religion" it is an Old World term that we prefer not to use. However, if you are interested in the nature of the cyclical truth, the Causality Faith, Guardian, Yaweh-Allah-God, or other truths then by all means I treasure the time we can spend together on these things!


VN, it looks like you may have worked your wat into your own religion... nice, i am working on finding out more to compare with the intell foo had given me on you before my next surpise

Quote:
I would like to know of all of the beliefs in time father, but one such name is familiar to me, please tell me of the guardians, it is actualy related to an investigation i am performing right now.. and I am one to believe that such coincidences are not random in any sense

I was with DC, but resigned due to conflicts with President Tang and my own personal beliefs. I am now a free lance Investigator.. so please note that while i ask you of these "beliefs" for my own knowledge, the guardian belief may be directly involved in my investigation...

Also father, i am not sure what need of a PI you may need, but should a job of any sort is needed by someone of my expertise, please do not hesitate to ask, I will work freely for you as well since you represent a church, and sometimes i find information I have the opportunity to learn is far better than any currency, and in this case good will as well is something i wish to strive for in my life, and it is better to give than to receive.

Thank you for speaking with me Father Beck, i am grateful that you have scanned in to the interface to assist ans share the beliefs of Deus City with all of the temporal investigators

TRACE
P.I.


Yes folks it is true, me and foo ended our bussiness on a peaceful note, and i am now a PI!!! Self proclaimed PI, but none the less

 		IT LOOKS TO ME THAT VN HAS DONE IT

I just recieved this

Quote:
Father Beck says: Your timing is pre-ordainded, but I'm afraid I am greatly needed for the next day at least. We are awaiting the proclamation of the Guardian himself - Feel free to pray with us at the cathedral today. I must go - but I will talk with you at length about all of this once the enlightenment has been completed!

and it was right after the new news article went up so this pm is porblay the same guy who posts them or wrote this one sepcificaly

Prayer Vigil Announced
Sunday, Feb 01, 2037
DEUS CITY - GREY DISTRICT
All services for St. Ajmeri's cathedral will be canceled today due to the monastery's all day prayer vigil. The vigil is in honor of the announcement of the impending "Holy Prophet's second coming" as announced today. The vigil is expected to last until the order - which is listening intently and patiently for words from the key figure of the book of Guardian Text - hears either yea or nay from the one they claim to have contacted regarding his messianic status.

The order, under the studies of Father Beck of the cathedral, have for a while now held the belief that in the early days of the TIA Agent program the enlightened one would make contact with our time from the Pre-War Old World. Many are of the faith that this eventuality will cause a rift in space and time which has the potential to destroy our causality together, while others those who ascribe to the cyclical truth feel that what has happened will happen and therefore no "prophet" from time could possibly impart any knowledge from the past that was not meant to be - and vice-versa.

Those wishing to learn more of this or to find their own truth through knowledge of science and logic should scan in virtually to the St. Ajmeri's Holy Faith United church to await enlightenment.



Could ths mean th website link!!??!!

 		Bishop drops a few crumbs
Okay, I would have to share this even if it didn't have any intel in it. I'll tell you why in a minute.

First, part of a message I sent to Bishop:

Quote:
I do hope that at some point they are going to have tasks for us in some of the other districts, though. I really want the chance to explore the whole city--I mean, while I'm trying to do the whole "saving the world" thing!


Quote:
Bishop says: The other districts? Why would you want to go to any of those? Not that they'd take you. Or me for that matter. Hell, sawyer got bounced out of Green District the other day just for touching the flowers. I gotta say though I'm pretty backlogged with these damned anonymous reports of some of the agents the TIA is forwarding me. A lot of this stuff just doesn't even make sense... something about "better whistling on a surveilance aud"? Or what about this dork "Is there any way that we can reveal only parts of our private data?" Uh... HELLO yea - it's called the TEXT BOX on your profile! Some people huh? Well anyway I'd better get back to it. Thanks for letting me vent. Oh and I'm not much on fictional vids, especially the vintage stuff, but if you really want I guess I could download some for a kick. That's more Sawyer's gig. He told me once he was named after some TeeVee character back in your time. Weird huh? Laters


Guess who Bishop's quoting in his reply... Laughing

So, any guesses as to the Sawyer we're talking about? I checked on imdb.com, and the one that seemed might be most likely was from CSI: Miami. But the guy is now on the show Jericho.

And after guesses--is this anything relevant for us, or just filler?

 		I'm guessing Sawyer from LOST. Which is funny, because that Sawyer's real name was James Ford. The description on the "New to the City" page made me think of the LOST Sawyer, though. Something about appearing to be lazy but being interested in odd things.

And as my excuse for posting this, here's a message from Father Beck.
Quote:
There is no single denomination anymore, my son. We are all blessed in the knowledge of the true Omega and the blending of all personal truths. The law allows but one true faith here, and it is that of the Holy Faith United Church. Wise and good are the protectors of this city. I would encourage you to pray with us on this special day as we await confirmation of the Guardian Prophet's second coming! I must go for I am needed, but we can speak again at length once all is complete. Be well.


I'm hoping this prayer session is leading up to content being placed on the Holy Faith United website...so far, we have that site and the Defense-Corp website that are serving as glorified placeholders.

And congratulations to VN...you've won Father Beck's trust, coined the name of what very well might be a new faction, and might even be the prophecied one.

I was about to say that there's no sign that it is VN, other than the (possibly coincidental) mention of Guardian. But then i noticed that Father Beck has but two people trusted: Alex and VN.

 		Whoa! I think we've got a serious reveal from Father Beck!
Or is it my imagination?
Did anyone else catch this from Father Beck:

Quote:
There is an unseen threat in the city. Like roaches scampering in the shadows there are those that would destroy the good work of the people and the Benevolent Wright Industries which is the life blood of the hard working people of Grey District. They call themselves "Skivers". Pray for these misguided ones.


So it sounds like Beck is in Wright's pocket. I almost thought that Theo was in with him, until I read the bit about the brotherhood. So it still sounds like the underground info goes to Theo, but not Beck. I'm wondering if, as we align ourselves along the karmic spectrum, we are supposed to be passing info to different factions through personal messages, or whether or not the new color districts will allow us to pass info to other factions as they open up.

Hey, I think I coined an new game term: The Karmic Spectrum. Maybe we should have a new topic with that name. Laughing

Hey, anyone think that maybe the speak-easy is where we're supposed to meet up with the Skivers? And is slewth a Skiver? If not, who is the main representative of that group, do you think?

 		I don't know if this was a mistake on the part of the PMs or if we were supposed to discover it. I was going back through some of the older stuff and came across this:



Notice the 3d post down? It says the poster was Father Beck. That is not who posted the original message. I can't remember who it was, but it was a Red. Father Beck is one of us.

 		HOLY F^@ING SHIT
Did Father Beck ever drop a love bomb on me...
Quote:
Father Beck says: Forgive this humble intrusion my son. My name is Father Beck of the Holy Faith United Monastery. I must inform you that a high-priority and high-level message was sent to me From the HFU Diocese regarding yourself, which has excited me greatly! We believe you are the one we have been waiting for. Allow me to explain:

There are those among us who are of the opinion that you are in fact the one true Prophet Nightshade of the Guardian Faith from the early 21st century which we seek. If our calculations are correct, you will receive this message not long after your great prophecy was first recorded. You should know that we have awaited your coming for these many long years now and have done our best to preserve and promote the teachings of your ways since the formal founding of the faith decades ago.

As you may already know, the monastery of St. Ajmeri's is greatly vested in preserving the teachings and practices of all truths, and if indeed you are THE self-same Holy Prophet Nightshade of the Guardian Faith which we have all come to revere, then it is my great honor to come before you humbly, and before you also through time, to beseech you to teach us your truth so that the people of Deus City may know firsthand of (as it is recorded in the holy book of Guardian) "...the overwhelming rage at what has been done to our universe, and utter determination to undo it - whatever the cost."

If indeed these are your teachings then we welcome you my son into the fold of our brotherly flock. We offer you protection and our unending service, and do likewise "stand ready to do what must be done" as our lamentably incomplete historical records have recorded but a mere scattering of your indescribable words and deeds!

If your virtual presence is the second coming of which you will prophesy then proclaim it for all to know, that they might see and hear and accept it within their own truth constructs! For our numbers are great and there are many of us already who are "Guardian in spirit" with you and ready to "expunge the errors of man"!

Your humble servant,
Father Beck

AMEN

Embarassed
