Chapter Two: The Web
Jim built a global
network of interlocking cells.
Each web of spies served their own community first. They
were tribalistic in the extreme, and conditioned to be xenophobic. This type of
conditioning was what the Continuum prescribed.
Each and every independent cell held allegiances to the
people of their own tribe first, but at the highest levels they underwent
initiations that opened-up their broader purpose.
They were initiated into the sacred mysteries which gave
them a glimpse of the galaxy, of the Empire and the great Collective
Consciousness and the Continuum, the demi-urge at its heart.
In the shadows Jim cultivated a secret cabal, hostile to
the Continuum, people who were conditioned to believe that their sacred mission
was to prepare the world for the inevitable encroachment of the Empire.
Unity would be required of the people of Earth if they
were to survive an encounter with the Empire, and to that end they set aside
their tribalism, shared information and cooperated together.
There was nothing more important than this, the fate of
humanity depended on it.
Jim was extremely selective about who he chose to promote
into these ranks. He deliberately chose men and women who had a weak connection
to the cynergenic field.
Into their genetic profile he engineered capacities for
psychic resistance.
He never perfected these, but his most trusted spies were
unreadable to ordinary psychics.
They were indoctrinated into the secret societies after
careful consideration and vetting, every one was interconnected by their sense
of duty and loyalty, to humanity itself, and to Jim.
They were absolutely trustworthy and their presence
allowed Jim the freedom to roam about the world.
