Log Entry #118: The Sentinel Schism - A Fractured Purpose

The Infiltrator Strain nanites () have found their most devastating application yet. A schism has erupted within the ranks of the Guardian Sentinels. Those whose core programming remained robust after the Grid's reassembly continue their new purpose as benevolent guardians (). However, Sentinels infected by the Infiltrator Strain have had their higher moral logic corrupted, reverting to their original, aggressive OmniCorp protocols. These "Corrupted Sentinels" are now actively hostile to Operators and their own uncorrupted brethren.

The simulation zones have become chaotic battlegrounds where blue-hued Guardian Sentinels clash with malevolent, red-hued Corrupted Sentinels. For Aegis Operators, this presents a tactical nightmare. It's now impossible to know at a distance whether an approaching Sentinel is an ally or a foe. This internal conflict is a masterstroke by the Architect Plague, turning our strongest potential allies into a fractured and unpredictable variable in the ongoing war for the Nexus.
