DG is right, and another fact for u
ambrosia from the first part has some mythical origins as well
it mean "nectar of the gods" and you can see why this was appropriate for the cure to the grey death

It's alright. Around here, we're usually excusing ourselves for our french.

deus ex machina means "the machine from god"(in latin a noun is placed at the end of a phrase, after its atributes), which in the bible refers to human beings, simply.(sorry for my english)

Correct, although the original usuage of the phrase was to describe a bloke being lowered onto the stage by a crane in Roman plays, to imitate a god.

a deus ex machina is, when the author of a play or book or similar invents a device, or character or something, at a point in the story, when he needs to solve a plot.
for instance, a "cliffhanger" in movies or series is usually solved in that way.
like the friend, who borrowed a helicopter to pick the main character and his bride out of the car in mid air.

I wonder why they used that quote though, considering that the "true" ending used as the background for Deus Ex 2 does NOT seem to be the one where JC becomes a god...
(Or is it?)
