In Response To: Re: storyline in the dream levels (poenadare) Yeah, I just looked at that section too, but I don't see much about the terminal text itself, unless I'm overlooking it somehow. I thought there was more somewhere. I haven't reread that stuff recently, but I've thought of it for a while now as being a metaphor or direct description of something associated with the player's past. If I remember correctly, I think Rubicon follows that thread and expands upon the dream level story, so that may be where I'm getting that idea. I don't know if there was also speculation that the story was about Durandal. I sometimes wondered if the knife mentioned in it was supposed to represent Durandal. It seems to me that it could be read as a series of events from the player's life, possibly before he was grafted with Jjaro technology. His implied life as a clandestine killing machine merged with alien technology seems to jive with the fact that men in black suits are following him around. Though I could only conjecture as to why, perhaps to observe or capture (recapture?) him. And if the levels these terminals appear in are the dreams of our main character, then it would make a lot of sense that the terminals would contain his memories, though they could be distorted in all sorts of ways. : we need a nav bar for our nav bar! : Dream Levels and Failed Timelines
