    Kylix-A-Gort-Iganal-Brix's head throbbed with the dull, rhythmic ache of a high-velocity impact, followed closely by the disorienting, gravity-defying hangover of being forcibly dragged through a trans-dimensional sub-space fold. He groaned, his throat dry and tasting faintly of ozone and antibacterial gel. He tried to rub his eyes, only to discover that his wrists were bound tightly behind his back. He tried to kick his legs, only to find his ankles similarly restricted to the heavy, meta

    Ashot is going to learn that his Steffy is not his property, and needs to be treated nicer. I think it is Ashot's way of showing affection, and needs a bit of a correction. He loves Stephen very dearly, just doesn't know how to express it appropriately in a way that is healthy. Dad Darien is going to have to have a word, before Lloyd does, or worse Mamma Bear grabs him by the ear.

    Darien's army is smaller than the Vizier's... but it is far better trained, better equipped, and holds the strategic high ground and the choke point of all of Fatamid reinforcement and resupply. Forcing Jerusalem to resupply off of the land. And considering the Fatamids hold the city, Darien holds the sea, and the Seljuk Empire holds the North and East, the Vizier is waking up to a Perfect Siege, and an awful lot of mouths to feed. Tancred employed this strategy, but historically Darien marched a year earlier than Tancred did, which makes Darien's siege of Jerusalem far more effective he gets a year to enforce it before the main army arrives.

    And Radoslav abandons, and betrays Darien yet again. The fracture is complete, the old oaths are broken Prince Darien rules his kingdom now not as Radoslav's vassal But as his equal.

    The Levantine coast surrendered to the Vanguard not with the clash of steel, but with a grueling, relentless war of attrition against the sun and the dust. For a week after their bloodless, highly lucrative departure from the wealthy island city of Tyre, the army of the Silver Boar marched south with the terrifying, mechanical precision of a Roman legion. The thousand heavy infantrymen, their captured Seljuk lamellar dyed in the deep green and silver of their newly forged brotherhood, moved

    The Veth are awful, their views on sentient life are despicable. It can be argued that Mickey has done Kyle a favour. Kyle doesn't see it this way, but Micky might argue it... while running from a string of Veth patrol ships desperate to castrate him.

    The pilot's chair of the Vega Vixen III had molded itself to Isaiah Bell's body over eighteen months of constant use. The cracked leather had softened in all the right places. The armrests bore the faint impression of his elbows. The seat had conformed to his spine in a way that was almost, but not quite, uncomfortable—like a hug from someone who wasn't entirely sure you wanted to be hugged. He wasn't sitting in it. Dimitri Ryder-Bell was. Eleven years old, all elbows and knees

    The Alcubierre drive was, theoretically speaking, a masterpiece of higher-dimensional physics. A marvel of spatial folding that allowed a vessel to slip the surly bonds of light-speed and ride the very fabric of the universe itself. An instrument of precision, requiring delicate calibration, profound mathematical understanding, and a gentle, coaxing hand at the helm. Mickey Ryder drove it like a stolen cargo skiff with a stuck throttle and a busted transmission. *"You are riding the

    A washed-up captain steals an alien saucer, crashes it into a pre-spaceflight civilization, and accidentally abducts a terrified teenage local. Now he's stranded with a hostile hostage, a sarcastic AI, and a teleporter that turns livestock inside out. To make things worse, his estranged husband is tracking him across the galaxy—and the real owners of the ship want everyone dead. A chaotic sci-fi romp about bad decisions, found family, and learning that running from your problems just creates bigger ones.

    I would also draw attention to Darien's mental state, and his exhaustion through the chapters. Wylan is beginning to realize that something is wrong with Darien, I've received some DM's of people asking, and I am confirming, Yes there is. Good catch to those folks that spotted it early.

    It's rare that Lloyd is the clueless one. I think it's because he doesn't really see Stephan as a sexual being, just his Kid/Squire. I mean he'd immediately pick up on it if it were Ashot, or Julian... but not the "good" one.

    The Emir, Ashot, and Stephen are really important to the main plot. Comedy aside, Jerusalem wouldn't have fallen were it not for those three. As you will see.
