"At first we thought there was just one submachine.
But then Murtaugh
came along, and showed us the
truth. His ability to create karma portals between locations let him explore more than one third of the submachine
net. That took him 32 years. How foolish were we in those early years.
Using his technology we were able to built our own portals to move between dimensions.
Now we set up the laboratory, we have reconnaissance exploration teams...
...for submachines, we go on missions into the
net trying to discover
new places and parts of this greatest puzzle. Murtaugh said once that there is no 'greatest puzzle', no masterplan, no one is controlling this thing. But we
think otherwise. There must be a purpose for all of things. We just have to find it. I thought this was all possible, but since Murtaugh deserted us, I'm not so
sure anymore. But we found our purpose, we see it clearly. Do you?..." - from a note in Submachine 4.
