The Tale of two Chips

The first segment in the /The Time Machine/ Arch.

The beginning
Jack recived a message from Sem, through the CID chips. It was scrambled and illegible. Only "help" was understandable. Jack went to Sem's room to investegate. Sem was on his knees, holding the back of his head with both hands. After some discussion, apprently Sem had two chips installed into him. Jack digs into his head and pulls out a platinum chip. Not the kind used for the CID software.

Sem takes the chip and examines, it. Obviously the recovery was quick. Sem explains that it was used for a /rollback machine/. The one that brought him back in time in the first place.

This was the first time Sem revealed what he was planning to build. He also explained he had a bit of a day job charging rich people for genuine colored dragonfire.
