Chapter 401

• Calum watched her for a moment and then turned and looked down at him, “she’s on a mission now.” He cleared his throat. “I’m sorry you weren’t informed.

• Konner inhaled through his nose slowly, “I understand.” He did, mostly. “I wasn’t reachable for a few days, so it’s no one’s fault.” It still would have been nice to see her, maybe go and make sure her body was put to rest in the way of his people. On the floor of the water to feed the environment so new life could grow. He couldn’t think about that now. “Where are they in finding out how the Alliance system was breached?”
• “They’re weeding through the trail slowly, I’m told.” He paused as Konner stood up, “You were out looking when you picked up to come here.”
