They didn’t have much time. It never seemed like they had much time, but now it was particularly short. Ti’s train would leave within the hour, the first stage of the op was imminent, and there was still plenty to prep before they hit stage two.
Still. If they only had a few minutes, they had both wordlessly decided that they would spend it together. Ti leaned against a wall on the far side of the room from most of the activity, and Lyta leaned against him, her head against his chest. She let his arms envelop her, strong and secure. “I don’t like this plan,” she murmured.
He stroked her arm. “It’s not a great plan,” he agreed. “But it’s the best one we’ve got.”
“I know.” She hated to admit it. If they had only a few more days, she was sure that Lukas could come up with something better. Something less risky, less dangerous, more assured. But they didn’t have a few more days. In a few more days, the infection might already have started to spread to Junira Loresh. She closed her eyes, trying not to think about it.

Calamity! And just when everything was going so well, too. Our Heroes (tm) better get a move on, or all of Terra Nova might pay the price…

One more betabel down! This week, Our Heroes (tm) kidnap Katerina Kazzov from her private plane and race to gather as much information as they can before her webble fries her brain. But things can never go smooth…

How do you make a betabel disappear without a trace and with no sign of foul play? With planning. Lots and lots of extensive planning.

Data dump and planning plans! As we move into endgame of our six-year campaign, it’s always useful to know which of your many, many enemies you’re going to obliterate first.

Koreshi Chronicles - Chapter X: Tandem
"You ready?" Lyta stood with her hand poised on the pull for the starter.
"We shouldn't be here."
"But we are here. Too late to turn back now."
"Janus Kerasi..."
Lyta smiled, an eager, anticipatory grin. "Annnndddd... go!"
With a sharp tug on the starter, she was gone.

Koreshi Chronicles - Capter X: Fated
‘Controlling people is easy, controlling events is an entirely different proposition’.
The thought kept repeating itself in Minnie’s head. The more it did, the more she wondered why she had volunteered to be the instrument of Lukas’ vengeance on the Forzi’s queen, Bev.

Betrayal most foul! While Our Heroes (tm) were having meaningful conversations with their allies in Khayr-ad Din, elsewhere in the Badlands another ally was slipping a knife into our backs… and bullets into our assets’ heads.
