I want to take out Tyr. And possibly help against knife-lady-who-kept-stabbing-me

"Not wanting to sound downbeat," says Ariadne, "but that didn't go well just now. How much worse will it be without surprise, AND with Jericho being backed by Melitus' goons?"
Meanwhile, Finn has contacted the Shez, and the coding routine to observe Melitus' lair is being transmitted to that ship.
-
"Trouble is, we can't rescue any of them without their help," Marduk is saying to Barb, San and Cloud.

"It will be a lot worse, I am sure, Ariadne," Mors replies. "We need a good plan to get our friends out of there. It would be easier if our allies knew we were coming for them. They think we are dead, since Dallas told them so in order to trick Captain Jericho. That is a factor."
"We should somehow try to communicate with them..."

"Bad idea," says Dallas. "They are in extreme danger right now and we need to hold off talking to them as long as possible.
(The Shez and Percy are now linked over the comm so everyone can talk as if in the same group)
"At some point we'll have to talk to them otherwise no rescue is possible," says Marduk. "But it is hard to know who to trust. Ariadne, I think you should brief those who just returned on the nature of Melitus' lair."

"Yes, knowing exactly what's going on with the others would be nice." San says. "And we really need to come up with a better plan this time."

"Well, as for the others..." says Ariadne. "That's... hard to tell. Castor, Rade and Azrael are in the most trouble. Go see."
You can check their physical bodies on the ships. Their neurokinetics are off the scale. Their physiological readings are near maximum- as if they are currently sprinting a marathon. And their actual bodies are ever so slightly convulsing, almost vibrating, as if being electrocuted.
"Ain't normal, whatever it is," says Dallas.

"No, that isn't normal at all," Ares says. "Can you read the code to see what they are currently doing, Ariadne, or is it too jumbled?"

"That's... even MORE complex..." says Ariadne.
"The problem," says Marduk, "is that they cannot help themselves; we need someone in there who can. I think Hephaestus might be ok."
Ush is hinting- is Zink still in, come to combat time again?

(I'll give him a few extremely hard nudges, Ush... )
(His simple mind is kind of lost in the choice making...)

Okidokey- but it is handy if we have someone on the Philosophy path who is NOT involved with the current Philosophy bit, so if Heph can play that role, it suits things very well. Originally it was going to be Kosta/Celsius but he has drifted away, so I need a replacement.

(...and....nothing's happening...oh well, I'm going to be really busy until after May 16th, and then stuff will calm down a bit for me...but I won't really be around full-time until after June 4th.)

Nothing happening? I was waiting for YOU guys to comment! It's not all guns going off in your face, you know...
"Right," says Dallas. "Mission is simple. You guys gotta go in, take out Jericho and co, and rescue the others. Only problem is, you can't get inside Melitus' realm."

Ariadne spins around in her chair.
"I have identified where you went when you disappeared out of view after going through that door," she says. "Technically speaking, you remained inside the factory. Thing is, the inside of that factory doesn't actually correspond to its outside analogue. The code is seriously screwed over; it is pretty much dimensionally trascendental."
"She means it is bigger on the inside than the outside," says Dallas.
"Yeah," says Ariadne. "So the inside of most of that factory doesn't really conenct with any other part of it. Or really with each other. Umm... it's kinda complex. But the most important thing is the interface that takes you in and out of there- the door on the upper level that leads inside, that we lost contact with you when you went through? Well, that's the transcendental interface. Ypu perceive it like a door, but it isn't really one- even less so than a normal Matrix door. You could break it down, but there would be nothing behind it. It is the protusion into the mainstream of the Matrix of a link into Melitus' area that can ONLY be established internally."
"Which is to say..." says Dallas. "That door can only be opened from the inside."

"Yeah, so one of the others will have to do it. Which they are not really in a position to do."

"I think Hephaestus is our best choice there," says Marduk, "though the doorway will likely be guarded."

"If they're mooks, he can take them. He's the martial arts master of the Shez after all," Ares replies. "But how to get his attention?"
