Gress’ belief that the Krev Consortium was that insidious hadn’t quite landed with me, after witnessing the depths of evil within the Federation. Learning how even the herbivores were subdued and tampered with, from the Sivkit we found ...

A/N - Apologies for the day’s delay and a bit of a shorter chapter, I’m unfortunately sick. Wanted to be sure I got something to you guys! Going to push each chapter this week back by one day, just because posting 3 days in a row (Tuesday-Thursday) would be a bit too much. Won’t leave the typical note at the bottom, but I hope you guys enjoy some speculation about the findings at ...

Sitting in Secretary-General Osmani’s office, ready for General Jones to waltz into her dismissal, I hoped that she wouldn’t weasel her way out of this. I liked to think that she was a patriot, in her own mind, and wouldn’t...

It was a relief that I didn’t have to make a decision about which world—and which people I loved—that I wanted to stay with on a permanent basis. The time at home with my biological family had been an absolute treat, learning about my...

The shock at the emergence of the hidden ships, which made the heavy-handed force we’d sent look insignificant, was evident in the faces of the SC leadership. The other humans within our section were buzzing with chatter, tryin...

Esquo’s Hope was the Jaslip enclave on the Ulchid world, and also the nearest to our prior engagements on the Smigli homeworld. I couldn’t get used to having the Arxur breathing down our necks; my biggest hesitancy was over taking anything that...

A/N - Putting the A/N up here! I'm trying to work in some rest days to my schedule so it's a bit more sustainable, and to be honest, I just needed one. People often ask me what's changed about the book rewrites, so I thought that I should put this here for you guys, the patrons, in a clear and easy to access format. Hope this is a welcome substitute and change of pace. Sovlin will return on...

Returning to the Sapient Coalition after a reprieve on Ivrana, I tried to set realistic expectations for what I could accomplish. Elias Meier’s temporary control over the Secretary-General position had lapsed, and there was no telling wheth...

With the pressure off of my shoulders, tied only to an advisory capacity for Secretary-General Osmani, I found myself living in 2136 in my head. The fate of the SC no longer rode on my actions, so I could afford to contemplate a ...

It was a goofy suburban one-story home, with baby blue shutters and a few garden gnomes scattered about—like something out of a television sitcom instead of reality. After exiting the vehicle with Gress and double checking that this was th...

Earth. The Blue Marble in the viewport brought tears to my eyes, seeing the birthplace of my species in person. There were many conflicting emotions that whipped around my head, jockeying for control. I’d spent so many long nights mourning...

There was a brief delay in arranging our meeting with Chief Hunter Kaisal, since Aulan wanted the encounter to be in an open forum. As rotten as the Krev Consortium was, the Arxur’s reputation preceded them; they held sapient livestock, glassed do...

It hadn’t taken long to nominate a proper Secretary-General to succeed Kuemper, and I was pleased to learn that General Osmani would be taking up the mantle. I didn’t have any wish to reacquire my former role, for a great many...

After a rather long voyage cooped up on the spaceship, it felt strange to disembark on the Sapient Coalition’s center of operations. Gress and I had signed plea bargains to help with negotiating the peace, instead of facing charges for our...

Even with the local government on Omnol turning a blind eye to the open rebellion in the enclaves, I wasn’t sure that the Jaslip Independence Brigade would enjoy much success without outward support. Our heads hadn’t cooled off one bit toward th...
