In Response To: Infinity: the Story: Chapt 4 (Philtron)

: One Thousand Thousand Slimy Things:

: At one point, the main character has to use “jump terminal (7a)” to move
: forward. The terminal states “authorization key required, priority
: transports only”. It is unclear how the main character can use this jump
: pad or where he could have acquired the authorization key. But this feels
: like something important to the story. I personally don’t feel like
: digging into it or speculating on it.

I don’t think there is a need for much speculation. These are human controlled terminals like the Blake ones in M2. Since you have just arrived on this level the humans have had no time to change the authorization key to block your access to them.

That would be simplest theory (Occam's razor).

But let’s notch it up a little by speculating that it is Durandal’s primal pattern in your “soggy little skull” which allows you to override the security lockout. It would also help to explain how we can override Tfear’s teleport terminal at the end of Converted Church. And the fact that when we merge Durandal’s primal pattern with the S’pht AI we can no longer prevent Tycho from sending us to Big Time. And only through the intervention of the Durandal-S’pht entity are we sent off to Aye Mak Sicur… to finish it.

Cheers
Hamish
