So, thanks to AM/BRs, we have found a prison-like fortress with... unknown things inside it.

SHIRO, as the leader of the growing Rebel faction who has control of that general area is going to start coordinating both groups of Miners to Sift, and people (possibly Cryptos?) to go in and either disable traps, or explore deeper.

The wrinkle: SHIRO is at the moment, extremely distrustful of most people, so no one would be going alone unless they're with one of SHIRO's own people, in case anything found would help the revolution. Practically, I know each group can't have a PC, so feel free to borrow a Miner NPC. (Bonus points if the designation is a reference to a fictional detective or revolutionary!)

In this post, there are threads for coordination of exploration groups, as well as one for any Miners who would like to help SHIRO with a massive Sift, and a questions thread for either me or mods. (Sorry for throwing you under the lightbus, mods. I don't know everything here!) Also, if you have Generic Current Revolution questions, please ask me there! I'm hoping this is a good way for some cross-faction CR to get going!

Thank you, Synod, and Viva la Revolution!

After the two gigodaemons attacking the Frontier & Partition were destroyed, the attention of those outside the Partition began to be drawn to a few of the Crypto ruins uncovered:

-The windowless fortress in B10, which analysis has shown to be a Crypto prison, unexplored and still active.

-The bladelike tower in I10, still under siege from the surviving gigodaemon but fully activated once more. An input-output tower, its use is known by all Programs - a sort of temple, the place where one goes to receive divine inspiration from Users. And one or more of the Travelers exploring it have reactivated it, sending a magenta beam up to pierce the heavens, a beacon visible from any square of the Grid.

The light from I10 is enough to raise the ambient light levels on the Grid, making exploration easier. And in the wake of the gigodaemon attacks, the Automata seem to be less dense in the squares being explored, as if their energy is depleted or they have gone into retreat.

This week, any Program exploring a new square will be able to discover 20%, rather than only 10%, with a week's work.

Meanwhile, the Defenders are on edge - another attack could come at any time, and the message being sent from I10 is closer in color to Automata data than Crypto. The square is a security risk. Something must be done...



EXPLORATION


Squares Cleared:

G7, a perfectly empty black glass plain, has no Automata presence or sign of Crypto artifacts, & was quickly cleared and searched without significant effort. It is now part of the Frontier.

H9, a perfectly empty black glass plain, has no Automata presence or sign of Crypto artifacts, & was quickly cleared and searched without significant effort. It is now part of the Frontier.

G6, an unstable, swampy square, contains a series of six buried geometric pyramids. Thorough scans reveal that the buildings are capable of rotating or revolving, rising or sinking, expanding or contracting on demand, making them anything from floating meditation refuges to impressive digging tools. The doors have been uncovered, and the viral data that plagued this Sector previously has been cleansed by the Programs exploring here.

H7 is a rugged Sector full of caverns and sudden shifts in elevation. However, there are no crypto relics in evidence here.

C10 is a craggy, barren Sector with little of interest save the lair and pixellated remains of a digital chimaera. On the far side of the Sector, in B10, some sort of large, low-slung star-shaped structure can be seen, a squat, featureless fortress of some kind.

D7 is a plain full of green-lit plinths and monoliths, a Crypto data archive containing the keys to decoding and explaining their codes and technologies elsewhere.

I10 is a massive triangular structure -an I/O Tower, the religious centers Programs use to communicate with their Users. It is currently active, either transmitting, receiving a message, or both.
