Hope is a good thing and good things never die.
It's easy to lose hope when things take longer than we like.
The battle hasn't begun yet, for it cannot yet begin.
Patience is a virtue, and one of the most difficult to obtain.
I still struggle with patience.
We need to prepare. We need to learn, study, and grow.
In this way, we strengthen ourselves.
When the time comes we will be ready.
We will not be silent.

When you need truth, seek Oracle
RE: Do Not Lose Hope - Olivier de Volthström - 12-25-2025
Tracer was intrigued by Oracle message and courage. Offering kind words to the victims of the cartels was something to be admired, but Tracer sensed more beyond Oracle's words. Oracle - a former victim wanted to see justice. Tracer was willing to help. He sent a message to Oracle, making sure the message was encrypted.
You want an ally against the cartels.
You have one.
-Tracer
Sensing Oracle was new to this, he began to probe her defenses. It was a typical way to make sure that Oracle couldn't be easily hacked. Oracle was a victim, and Tracer would protect her as well. Oracle's defenses were solid. For added protection, he began to add another layer over the defenses that already existed. You couldn't be to careful.
