Illyria22

We have now thankfully built a new city to defend ourselves, should be need it, for the machines could attack at any given moment... so many claim they wouldn't do that, they were wrong. I am suddenly reminded of David Koresh. His group al...

Words cannot express how utterly disappointed I am in Zion. Building up armaments, preparing for war, all while reaping the benefits of the truce so many of them are speaking out against now...much like Germany did between World Wars 1 and...

The sim may start to question its own sanity... Illyria

I've always wondered about time in the Matrix -- what a cool idea for an event! Illyria

The humans lost the war. How else could the Matrix have been created, if the human race hadn't lost? How could Machines have 'enslaved' the winning side? Illyria

Don't work with terrorists that threaten the stability of the system and the bluepills who rely on it. It isn't really that difficult a concept. EPN threatens the stability of the Matrix, and with it the lives of more than 99% of the human...

Happy Birthday! Lyr

The Effectuator is definitely one of the best characters in MxO. Illyria

What's the occasion? Illyria

Some things are just part of the storyline, and can't be changed. Illyria

He seemed like a pretty straightforward guy, not the type to believe in prophecies or mysticism...he probably would have shrugged and said "it figures" when he found out the whole prophecy about the One was just part of the Machines' syste...

I'm so glad that the Oracle is safe! Illyria

*sighs and shakes her head* Illyria

Yes, he does show us the power of belief. Just like the people at Jonestown and Waco did. Illyria

I agree with Cryptos's statement...don't trust those who claim to know. Belief is fine, but when it's at the expense of your common sense it becomes dangerous. If someone claims they know something beyond the shadow of a doubt, or if they'...

Ghost looks great! Lyr

Nobody seems to be following the General's orders anymore... Illyria

Well, you *were* doing Machine missions all through it... Illyria

'And' nothing. She's vindictive and violent, willing to kill in the real. She wants Zion destroyed. And if it turns out that redpills really can't be reinserted, she will probably lose what little sanity she has. Things were much safer whe...

EPN puts itself outside the truce, and then they get upset when those protecting the Matrix fight back against them? That's like being surprised when you throw rocks at soldiers and the soldiers shoot you. Perhaps EPN simply doesn't unders...

I do not trust Veil at all. Illyria

What Garu said. Illyria

We made the General look like a complete idiot. I wouldn't call that snatching defeat from the jaws of victory! Illyria

He said he was willing to kill millions of people in one of the cinematics, when he talks to the Oracle. Illyria

The funniest thing I've seen a gangmember do was when one of the (male) npc's in Union Hill did the Succubus-kiss attack on Sattakan! Illyria

Oh man, that speech was priceless! Illyria

Dang, the Apothecary's creepy. Lyr

Zion is necessary for the cycles of the Matrix -- so even if the Machines didn't build the original Zion, they must have rebuilt it after each time it was destroyed, making it suitable for its role in the cycle. Illyria

The programs in the Matrix have to 'fit in', otherwise they would make the bluepills suspicious. Illyria

EMP's do not have infinite range. It would be easy for the Machines to send in some sentinels and let Zion use up all their EMP's on them, and then attack with another wave of sentinels. Illyria

If we knew where these Morpheus transmissions were coming from in the real, we might be able to assess if they were coming from Stalingrad or somewhere in the tunnels. Illyria

The Oracle said nothing was coincidence. I agree with that. I find it a bit too coincidental -- again -- that a hologram of an injured Morpheus appears at the same time the General is fighting the Machines, trying to goad the 'faithful' in...

Zionites, the next time you complain about Cypherites and Machines working together, I'm going to refer you back to this thread. You work with EPN as much as we work with the Cyphs. Illyria

Xenin -- Marcus did die. He was killed by members of the local gang. It's no coincidence that Shimeda's operation report didn't include that part. It's a shame that once a bluepill chooses to remain a bluepill, any concern from EPN for the...

Very nice! Lyr

I'm sorry I missed this! Illyria

If this really is Morpheus, why doesn't he just tell the Kid where he is so he can be rescued? Illyria

When I see the word 'temple', it suggests worship. I think the only way I'd stand before that temple would be if I were about to be sacrificed in it! Illyria
