  • Dawn nods "Jacob right now is very adapt at illusions. He is still a beginner, but he has come a long way. Mathew, Walkers brother, is our formost specialist in advancing our computer technology. He is working currently on the next generation AI, and the next generation biomechanical computer chip. I will say that Jacob has also taken an interest in Mathew's work..and has been learning from him as well."

    • "Matthew, eh? Never been great at computers, but I'll look into this Matthew guy."

      • "Very well. I'll follow up on this Jacob."
        "I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff." I suddenly remember Delenn's line from Joe's script. Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

        • To make a long story short, the people that are in charge of city cyber security have zip. Whoever it is, covered their tracks very well. If they find anything they will let you two know. The AI isn't much help either, as it doesn't even remember the time stops, as it would have to be the thing hacked.

          Mathew
          You follow him for awhile, and wonder how anybody could be so boring. Work is about all he does. One thing that is odd, however, is that he seems a bit cold and aloof (not exactly Utopian Characteristics).

          Jacob
          It takes about 5 seconds under 'the sight' to know something is majorly wrong with Jacob. He has a darkness inside him, it's small, but he definitely has been 'corrupted'. However, some other entity seems to be running the corruption, but even your sight can not seem to find out who or what it is.

          • Upon meeting up with Sapputiyok, Colt tells her, "I think Matthew's in on it. No way anyone could hack that AI without his help."

            • Sapputiyok responds to Colt, "Jacob has some sort of darkness inside him. I don't think he's completely in control of himself. But I don't know who's 'working the strings.' Perhaps we should switch. If there's the same sort of darkness within Matthew, I'll notice it, and maybe you'll find something about Jacob that I wouldn't notice or recognize."

              • Mathew

                Again it doesn't take long to figure out whatever is corrupting Jacob has done even more so with Mathew. Still something else is pulling the strings. The question is, what would both have come in contact with.

                Jacob
                For somebody who seems to be stronger in magic then science, he seems to spend a lot of time in Mathew's lab. Unfortunately neither of you can get into a top secret classified laboratory.

                • At yet another meet up, Colt confirms Sapputiyok's hypothesis. "Yes, Jacob and Matthew spend plenty of time together, and while that is odd, the thing that strikes me is the fact you have confirmed both are corrupted by a darker being. Now that we know, we can try to keep them both quarantined."
                  The Hound considered for a bit, then asked, "Odd favor; you may decline if you feel the need. Check out myself and Dawn with your Sight, please. I'm curious, but have neither evidence, nor real reason for suspicion of you, 'tiyok."
                  "As for your question of what these two could have come into contact with that would corrupt them so with darkness, that's going to prove difficult to discern. But then again, if it were an easy task, we'd have known before we arrived."

                  • Sapputiyok examines Colt briefly to confirm what xe has sensed before. "Neither you nor Dawn have the darkness I see in Matthew and Jacob. The one thing they have in common, besides Spirit Walker, is Matthew's laboratory. Perhaps there is something there that is causing this corruption. I wonder how we can find out."

                    • As Dawn would be the only one who might be able to get you access to the lab, once approached she hesitates.

                      "If what you say is true, I can get you both into the lab. There is one problem, however. Please do not take this the wrong way, but both of you combined could not take on even one of my people, let alone two. But..maybe you do not have to. I can let you borrow a device that will connect what you both see and sense to the council. If you can find the source of the troubles..they will act immediately. If.. you are willing that is. If not we can send the council in to investigate, and you may return home knowing you have done what you could."

                      • While talking to Dawn, Sapputiyok examines her with xer gift again, in case xe missed the darkness before.

                        "If your people cannot sense the darkness within Jacob and Matthew, you likely will not be able to sense whatever is hiding within the lab. I know it will likely be dangerous, but I'm willing to risk it. Colt, I will need your help. You haven't backed away from danger up to this point. You won't now, will you?"

                        • While Dawn's light is a bit different then most Utopians, there is no darkness in her not even a little. However, when you look very close there is something you didn't notice before. A small kernel of power that is soft and strong..maybe even stronger then the other Utopians. It is undeveloped as of yet, but in time she might make most Utopians seem like children. Perhaps, even though she is young, she is near ascension, or perhaps it is something else entirely, but it is there.

                          • "Erm, Dawn... Another thing before we continue. What happens when your people ascend? Do you... change? And do those who become rutopian change? Is it something visible to you?"
                            "I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff."

                            • "We become beings of pure energy and thought. Rutopians do ascend, but I don't know much about that I am afraid. As for visible to us.. if you mean do we know before somebody is ready to ascend. No. However, when one of us ascend it is very visible. We become orbs of pure energy."

                              • Colt, meanwhile, was busy rolling a cigarette by hand. "Danger?"
                                He struck a light-anywhere match and continued as he puffed, "Pfft. I faced down the Devil's Bayou Butcher, a woman who had used an ice pick to brutally hack thirty-eight people to death -- all because they strayed into Devil's Bayou-- then went on a deranged killing spree across the country, gutting and cannibalizing another eighty-two across four states. I've killed THE Chupacabre and fought the Beast of Bray Road. Danger? Point me at it."
