        <description><![CDATA[<p>"K" is someone who first appeared before the Kureze Effect anomaly series.</p><p>At first, many thought that "K" was a nickname of Dr. Victoria Kureze from Osiris Node.</p><p>However, agents started to notice that "K" when sending messages through the scanner News, used 2 different images.</p><p>One was a cookie, the other a Chihuahua.</p><p>That gave some the idea that maybe, "K" could be Victoria Kureze, but from a different node. Or even 2 different Kurezes.</p><p>But, at the end of the Kureze Effect series, a hidden message makes clear that K is not Victoria Kureze, but someone who apparently has memories from Dr. Victor Kureze "life ending" from node 1218, and was surprised when found out about Dr. Victoria Kureze form Node Osiris being a female and alive. And also indicates that has taken the decision of becoming part of The Enlightened (it's unsure if this was due a previous neutral alignment, or a Recursion process)</p><p>That totally rules out the possiblity that K is Victor, or Victoria Kureze, or even the Nemesis version of Kureze.</p><p>So, we still have the question: who is "K"?</p><p>After Kythera phase 1, a coded message was shared by that points to one name KLUE</p><p>Now some investigators believe we are talking about a known investigator from Node 1218: Klue</p><p>However, this Klue from 1218 has gone through a lot: faction changes, hosting ADA, and merging with ADAs Osiris host - Wendy.</p><p>We are unsure of what happened to the 1218 Klue after the tessellation ended... Some say "K" is her acting from within some ethereal form inside the XM.</p><p>Others have the theory that K may be Klue, but a new Klue from Osiris node, that through the Kureze Effect has gained access to some of the memories of the 1218 Klue</p><p>Others theorize that K is 1218 Klue inside Osiris Wendy...</p><p>Ant yet other believe that K is not any version Klue, and point to other subjects of interest like Kodomasmiles, Andrew Krug, etc.</p><p>BUT, WHY DO WE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT WHO IS K?</p><p>Now that Kythera Anomaly has begun, the fate of the Kythera Mechanism is in Ks hands.</p><p>K is asking for both factions to help her get the mechanism, or complete it, for using it or destroying depending on the final result of wich faction wins the anomaly.</p><p>Why we should help someone we don't know to use/destroy something we don't know what is for?</p><p>Share with us, who do you think is K?</p>]]>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>When the call came out for communities to submit their applications to be considered for becoming a site for Kythera, community leaders put together an application and sent it in.  We thought it would be nice to have some battle beacons to play with, like so many other cities.  We have a decent sized active community for the size of our two small cities of Midland and Odessa. </p><p>The day before the announcement we were contacted to confirm we still wanted to be included in the event, we gave an enthusiastic YES.  Then we were surprised with the rest of the world when our city was chosen as one of 10 globally, and we would have Shards at the event.</p><p>With that short notice both teams put their bat signals in the sky and lit the warning beacons of Gondor to call for aid.  Agents from all over responded to the call. Agents traveled in from El Paso, Dallas, Lubbock, Colorado.  </p><p>Ultimately 19 agents were able to join the fun, almost an exact split between teams.  </p><p>On the RES side, agent <a data-username="TheIndigoRose" data-userid="30757" rel="nofollow" href="https://community.ingress.com/en/profile/TheIndigoRose">@TheIndigoRose</a> stepped up to get us organized.  She got in touch with experienced shard players and put together a plan.  For us the week before was pretty busy, discussing strategy, and making sure we hacked enough Resonators and XMP to make it through the event.  There was a lot of anguish over burning off local keys we wouldn’t need to make sure we had the space to store all the gear we would need.  </p><p>Then it was the big day.  Local and out of town RES met up at a local restaurant to go over the final plan, and work out who would start where, and of course which menu item was the best for a planning meeting.  Jalapeno Cheeseburger seemed to win out.  We planned to focus on Shards initially and then move on to battle beacons.  </p><div data-embedjson="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031689\/uploads\/P3F2YSAFSNOX\/photo-2022-05-26-22-28-03.jpg&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;photo_2022-05-26_22-28-03.jpg&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:255030,&quot;width&quot;:1000,&quot;height&quot;:562,&quot;displaySize&quot;:&quot;large&quot;,&quot;float&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;embedType&quot;:&quot;image&quot;}">

<p><br /></p><p>Then it was 14:30.  Targets are marked in comms.  Some of us headed directly to the targets to start farming keys.  Suddenly it was 14:40 and the shards had spawned, and all hell let loose.  Agents flooded the streets like a wasp nest knocked out of a tree.  It was pretty wild for a while, the first couple of shards I encountered were uncontested, but soon enough my daughter (Only a level 6 agent) and I were facing 3 ENL players fighting over a shard.  We held them as long as we could, before our operator had us move on to more fruitful endeavors.  </p><div data-embedjson="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031689\/uploads\/E0UA1WC3HQ9J\/dune-first-shard.jpg&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Dune First Shard.jpg&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:113441,&quot;width&quot;:393,&quot;height&quot;:700,&quot;displaySize&quot;:&quot;medium&quot;,&quot;float&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;embedType&quot;:&quot;image&quot;}">

<p><br /></p><p>Pretty soon there was just one shard left on the field, and the score was tied up 6 and 6.  There was a mad race to the downtown city park the shard was sitting in, as agents from both sides converged to grab the last ripe fruit of the season.  Ultimately RES got there first, by minutes, and were able to hold off as ENL agents rushed up to try to drop the link. The time was 15:40.  Right at one hour from shard spawning the shards were all secured.  </p><div data-embedjson="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031689\/uploads\/FKNGYTOV5W0Y\/target-final.jpg&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Target Final.jpg&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:51442,&quot;width&quot;:323,&quot;height&quot;:700,&quot;displaySize&quot;:&quot;medium&quot;,&quot;float&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;embedType&quot;:&quot;image&quot;}">

The NIA strongly advises Agents to take control of these Kythera targets for K’s investigation.</p><p>The NIA also urges Agents to deploy Rare or Very Rare Battle Beacons on Portals they believe will disturb Kythera during the Phase 1 event window from 15-18 April. Trust your instincts. There are no coincidences.

<p><strong>Kythera Lore Primer</strong></p><p><em>2022-05-16</em></p><p><strong>Efecto Kureze</strong></p><p>Hay cientos de recuentos de personas en linea con recuerdos detallados de cobertura periodística de el líder Sub Africano del Anti-Apartheid Nelson Mandela muriendo en prisión en los años 1980s. En realidad, Mandela falleció el 5 de diciembre de 2013 en su casa en Houghton, Johannesburgo, rodeado de su familia. En 2009, la autora Fiona Broome apodó al fenomeno como Efecto Mandela, y especuló que la anomalía podría haber sido causada por realidades alternas. Broome compartio, "podria ser evidencia de la mecánica cuántica en la vida diaria".</p><p>En el Q1 2022, hicimos nuestro primer contacto con un investigador multiversal K. Se sabe muy poco acerca de sus orígenes, pero parece creer que estos recuerdos alternos son marcadores o puntos de un camino que nos dice que realidad estamos visitando en ese momento:</p><p><em>"Lo llame el Efecto Kureze porque recuerdo haber leido reportes de la muerte del Dr. Victor Kureze despues del cierre del Proyecto Niantic en Abril de 2013, mientras que muchos de ustedes parecen recordar las cosas de manera muy diferente. No mentire, la Dra. Victoria Kureze me causó mucha confusión. Y mientras mas unía esos cabos sueltos, mas falsas memorias encontraba: gelatina Jell-O, no Gell-O. Osos Berestain, no Osos Berenstein. Lo siguiente que me dirán es que Darth Vader nunca dijo la frase "Luke, yo soy tu padre"."</em></p><p>Con la victoria de los Iluminados en la Serie de Anomalías Efecto Kureze, K al final decidió unirse a los Iluminados, pero urgió a los agentes de ambas Facciones a ayudar a investigar el Mecanismo Kythera.</p><p><strong>Kythera</strong></p><p>El Mecanismo Antikythera es una antigua computadora que "simplemente no debería existir". Los expertos creen que se usaba para predecir el futuro de las posiciones astronómicas con anticipación de décadas. También creen que no puede ser la única computadora de su tipo en ser diseñada y construida por los científicos griegos.</p><p>Se encontraron Fragmentos o esquirlas (shards) del Mecanismo Antikythera junto al los restos recuperados del naufragio en las costas de la isla griega Antikythera en 1901. 121 años después, K le ha pedido a los agentes que capturen las Shards del inaudito y hasta ahora desconocido Mecanismo Kythera en las Fases 2 y 3 de la Serie de Anomalías Kythera.</p><p>El Mecanismo Antikythera fue alguna vez usado para predecir el futuro; tal vez el Mecanismo Kythera puede ser usado para redescubrir el pasado. El Efecto Kureze sugiere la existencia de realidades alternas, y lo que es verdad en realidad depende de en qué realidad estes sintonizado. En el Q2 2022, si los Iluminados controla la Serie de Anomalías Kythera, K usará el Mecanismo Kythera para investigar estas realidad alternas. Si la Resistencia gana, K lo destruirá para proteger esta realidad.</p><p>Como siempre, K parece disfrutar los acertijos, y compartió el siguiente en la Fase 1 de Kythera:</p><p><em>"Quien soy?</em></p><p><em>Invested. Audit. Crop</em></p><p><em>1 en un qubit, 2 en un sistema quantum, pero 0 en Kythera</em></p><p><em>Hablo sin una boca."</em></p><p>K. what3words para Plaza Mayor de Lima. La letra U. Un Echo. Usando el alfabeto fonético de la OTAN para Lima y Echo, K parece indicar a los agentes sobre la investigadora y truthseeker del Proyecto Niantic Klue.</p><p>Finalmente, que rara coincidencia el ver esto al final del website Visit Kythera:</p><p><a href="https://community.ingress.com/en/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&amp;target=https%3A%2F%2Fvisitkythera.com%2F" rel="nofollow noopener ugc">https://visitkythera.com/</a></p><p><em>"Bienvenidos a Kythera, el idílico lugar de nacimiento de Afrodita. Kythira es la isla que nubla la frontera entre el mito y la realidad. La visión romántica representada en la pintura de Antoine Watteau, The Embarkation for Cythera ("L Embraquement pour Cythere"), es una representación viviente de la experiencia Kythira mientras alcanza los profundos significados de la vida que estan incorporados en tres palabras: Amor, Naturaleza, Libertad."</em></p><p>Eso casi suena como Glyphs de los Shaper. Mejora tu juego con emociones renovadas. Sal y pásatela en grande.</p><ul><li>Brian Rose (@GP2C)</li></ul>]]>
