==GM==: Iris makes a vidcall and sets up a meeting with Decipher's assistant Kris on Miranda. Miranda is a true neutral place where the power is all in the hands of Operatives, for better or worse.

Strings can be marked (each a markdown or markup) and have a level. When a String is introduced, it is level 0. Strings that conflict and are of the same level don’t resolve, but the GM and player can use them as Means or leverage in Contests & Challenges. Strings that exceed the level of another trump them. When a String has three marks, they are removed, and it resolves. If it has more markup marks, it increases by one level of truth. If it has more markdown marks, it decreases one level of truth. If a String hits -1 level of Truth it becomes a special String called a Lie that the GM gets to use in play from that point on.
