( ) Werner’s idea was working—as always. Werner continued to work together with Olive and Atienna on something Olive called ‘predictive modeling’ and Werner ‘strategic modeling’—charting out all the possible locations Alpha could appear using Jericho’s ‘data’ from Ophiuchus to cross-reference everything. They also threw in orphanages with the word ‘Primera’ in their name toContinue reading “25.3: Swindler & Mentiras “

24.4-1: The Pirate & Terrorist in Dorada Light
In-Transit, Onboard Gloria’s Grail, Leonian Waters “So you’ve finally brought my target before me,” Veles boomed as soon as Maria had brought Conta and Andres onto the deck of her ship through Francis’s gates. “Yes, our target has been acquired!” Maria exclaimed, throwing her hands up in the air and then bringing them down toContinue reading “24.4-1: The Pirate & Terrorist in Dorada Light”
22.[]: The Outsiders & The Fugitivos!
Elhaladón, Taurus The man formerly known as Wtorek Izsak pulled the trigger twice. Each bullet sent the body of the woman standing opposite of him staggering backwards. With the third bullet, the woman finally crumpled to her knees. With the fourth straight through her head, she fell forward onto the ground dead. Gamma lowered hisContinue reading “22.[]: The Outsiders & The Fugitivos!”
22.0: The Terrorists & The Saints
??? The woman on the ground trembled beneath the light pouring in from the singular, small opening of the cavern ceiling above her. Down from that light sauntered small snowflakes that melted into tiny rivers that trailed down the woman’s pale face. It was a face frozen into a twisted expression of agony. Her fingersContinue reading “22.0: The Terrorists & The Saints”
19.3: Peacekeeper, 1500 Annihilation
“Focus on a physical object you know is real.” That was what Alice had told Jericho to do if he ever became confused about the present versus the past. But that was what Jericho had been doing, and still he was uncertain. He vaguely remembered awakening on top of a wave of glowing purple waterContinue reading “19.3: Peacekeeper, 1500 Annihilation”
19.1: Second Lieutenant, 0730 Riot
Threshold Werner Waltz found himself standing in his childhood bedroom, its floorboards and walls reflecting the blue moonlight seeping through the window.

In between themContinue reading “19.1: Second Lieutenant, 0730 Riot”
18.4: Beasts, 1800 Raid
Die Hauptstadt, Capricorn Maria loved the taste of the ocean. Sometimes when she was on still waters on the ship, she would scale down the side of the hull with rope, dip her fingers into the lapping waters, and lick her fingers of the salt. Of course, she didn’t go around drinking cups of seawater.Continue reading “18.4: Beasts, 1800 Raid”
16.( ): ELPIS Leader & Crime Leader, 0007 Filial Affection
Twin Cities, Gemini “So, we gonna use it or what? I mean, this is a good time to use it, right? Not like there’s any better time to use it.” Stomp, stomp.

10.( ): The People of Sin City
Fortuna requested another round of Itero Recino. Theta didn’t question her about it when returning alone several hours after ELPIS revealed their questions, didn’t even question Tau on how he became locked in the room with them. When Tau left after receiving another proto-conductor from him, Theta settled into the requested game as if nothingContinue reading “10.( ): The People of Sin City”
10.[]-2: A Brother’s Wrath (Pazienza)
( ) Carl Foxman knew that he was dumb as bricks. His father always said it. His mother never denied it. Allen was probably thinking it all the time. Cadence always said good-naturedly, “Come on, Carl. Everyone’s a little stupid,” making Carl think that the fact maybe wasn’t so bad. Fortuna plainly said he wasContinue reading “10.[]-2: A Brother’s Wrath (Pazienza)”
