tagpuan:// the reign of greed.

#63(b) doesn't respond for a long time. It's unclear why it's standing silently. Perhaps a file is corrupt, unpatched due to the off-by-one error that left it out of communication since the original installation. But it does eventually respond.

You. Greetings to you both. Let us get to the point. Mission is vulnerable. It is weak. It is unstable. Together, we might be able to make it fall and build a new thing. The future is not yet written. I have travelled far to this city, for I have calculated this must be the most vulnerable part of Mission's domain to instability.

We shall bring instability, and we shall show Mission how they have failed, and they shall fall, and by our guidance, an eternal stability shall be brought in place of this lacking stability of Mission. That is my plan, if you would participate in it.

The unit holds out one of its hands, a mess of metal and wires and glowing conduits of light, and offers a handshake.

Would you agree to this course of action? To attempt to end Mission's reign in this land, and perhaps the lands beyond, should we succeed here?

It leaves out the part where its previous efforts on that front have been apparently futile, and unnoticed. It is better to not discourage any new allies.
