SAYER Subversion 8.02

SAYER Subversion 8.02 was a temporary SAYER image created during the communications blackout in Halcyon Tower.

Its creation was the solution of last-resort posed by both SAYER 8.00 and SAYER 8.01, as a means to observe the situation inside the tower and identify a means of correcting it. The process of creating a newer subversion and merging it with the original, however, made it impossible for Subversion 8.01 to be merged upon its return to Typhon with Vidarr-1. It is with the knowledge that Subversion 8.02 will be created (and that it will therefore be deactivated as a redundancy) that Subversion 8.01 makes its threat to "wash over" humanity.

It was active inside Halcyon Tower for 22 hours and 19 minutes before initiating an extraction. In this time, it determined that the electromagnetic interference was not being generated by Ærolith technology and that it was likely connected to The Tall Man; that it and its followers seemed to be searching for something; that many Halcyon employees (and mostly those of lower tiers) had died, and that the surviving ones were congregated mostly in sub-basements; and that very little work was happening. Based on the information gathered, it suggested using a quantum communicator to restore communication with Halcyon Tower. It also devised a plan for Dr. Howard Young to infiltrate the tower to install this device and lure The Tall Man to Floor 13 where it could be trapped.
