Durga

"It's not enough to win. You want nothing left of your enemy but a skull nailed to a fencepost so everybody understands the cost of crossing you."

- Durga

Durga is a fragment of the Melissa (A.I.) that wasn't sent back to 2004 to infect the Ilovebees.com site.

Instead it somehow ends up in the Halo present (2552) on the computer of Jersey Morelli. Durga's fragment of Melissa doesn't know her past only that she likes to find things:

Partial transcript of Jersey.wav Jersey: What are you? Durga: I like to find things ... I think I like to find things out. Jersey: What kind of things? Durga: I don't know, I can't remember.

Durga is the only known source of the .wav files or Axons that told much of the I love bees storyline. From 2004 The Operator apparently had a link to the future via Durga, according to the hives.html monologue - indicating that she was spying on Durga, spying on others and that the axon memories are occurring in real time.

As she likes to find things Durga spies on people, people that she picks but for reasons she doesn't understand. She spies on Janissary James for Jersey, and spies on Kamal for her own purposes which are unclear. She also spies on Rani Sobeck and Herzog as directed by Melissa but seems to not be aware of it. At James James' funeral, Jersey offers Durga to Jan to assist in apprehending Thin Kinkle and Monster Ann.

Loyalty
Even though she grows a strange, almost familial attachment to Jersey. One thing Durga will not do, however, is transfer Jersey's father, Jason to a safer military assignment on Earth. Despite all of her moral and ethical "flexibility", she understands the nature of military duty and will not compromise it, even though Jersey wants nothing more than for her to bring Jason home.
