"Indeed. When my ship was destroyed, the Katana, was destroyed by the sentinels and my entire crew killed, I was rescued by the Logos. She is a good friend of mine, and she picked me up just in time to get away from the sentinels. One of her crew, Ghost, and I armed the guns and started shooting them down. Our aim was thrown off by Niobe's crazy piloting skills. Then her Operator, Sparks, set off the EMP. Couldn't have had a better rescuer."
"Well...alright. It was a small crew, only four of us, including me. Three of us would go in, and our Operator would stay out and aid us."
"Well, there was me, and you all know me. Basically a younger me, and had a Captain status." Mors sighs. "Captain Mors of the Katana..."
"Our martial arts expert was Dragon. Young Asian kid, not unlike yourself, Heph. Hot tempered from time to time, and a damn hard fighter."
"Shell, our guns nut. You should have seen the things she could do with a pair of Uzi's. Saved me from quite a few Agents a few times, and saved me from a Sentinel in the end."
"And then Bolt, our Operator. Very tedious person, very by the rules. I hammered it out of him over time."
"But, it all ended. Shell, Dragon, and I were in the Matrix when the Agents found us. Dragon was confident he could take on an Agent, but was wrong. The Agent broke his legs and arms, and put him out of his misery with his Desert Eagle. We got out of the Matrix, but the sentinels had found our ship. Bolt was slammed through the computer screens he was used to reading, and then torn apart by the sentinels. A sentinel came down on me, but Shell fried it with a gun before being torn apart herself. I used my katana and drove the blade through a few of the tentacles of one before running off and out of my ship. Then the Logos arrived."
Mors looked pained. "I'm going to go talk to Niobe..." he told them, finished with his bad memories. He walked away, to Niobe's quarters, to chat if she was still in Zion and not out on her ship.
"No, I led my crew to death that could have been prevented. We were going into the Matrix for fun! Bolt was loading up programs that set up scenarios in our minds. I had a mindset that I was an ancient samurai. Shell was a sheriff of the wild west. Dragon was a boxer. It took a turn for the worst..." Mors muttered as he wandered off.
Actually, Morph tens to be quite anti-social when in Zion. He used to be very social and popular, but ever since Niobe left him he has become highly introspective- and since he found Neo, virtually no-one seems to get to see him- not even Locke, much to Locke's annoyance.
Plot event- departure of Persepolis
After a remarkably short stay, the Percy is leaving already. Its Captain gathers his crew (and any players that end up serving on it) and, after only a token re-charge, the ship is already drifting out of Zion.
Meanwhile, the rumour soon spreads that Commander Locke is in consultation with the Council- almost certainly a sign that a major operation is about to be mounted.
