Planet St Jakque, Montsoll System, House de Jardin The Ravens flashed in at the planet’s teleport beacon, high above its orbit. Both the Spirit of Amelia and the Accursed Bootlegger were scanned by planetary security, then allowed to descend down to the planet. As they approached, they wowed at th
It didn’t take long for the Ravens to disembark from their respective ships, and head towards the far end of the hangar, where the transport tubes to the surface were. But they only got halfway before a small gravity pad came zipping up to them. On it was Max, who had a joyfully wide grin etched on
“We saw the aftermath of one of his planetary skirmishes out in the colonies,” said Eva. “It was a massacre. The naval fleet stationed there didn’t have half a chance. Their bodies and their ships were scattered everywhere.” “You all saw him fight?” asked Lucifer. “What was he like? How’d his fleet
Two Weeks Later The Ravens, guided by Max, walked up the Grand Staircase up to the de Jardin High Palace. There were exactly 100 steps all the way to the top, with every step etched with the names of prominent de Jardins throughout history. The Staircase itself was almost as wide as it was tall, w
Eva checked back into reality as they passed through the Grand Hall to the other end, where they presented themselves to yet another set of Royal Guards. This check took significantly longer, as the Guards triple-checked their status. Then, once they were approved, were given four Guards to escort
The Matriarch smiled at the Ravens as she observed and appraised each and every one of them. And in her mind’s eye, through her DI, she re-reviewed their dossiers, and whatever other intelligence she had on them. And what she saw was rather impressive. They had done their part in healing and protec
Matriarch de Jardin shook her head at her grandson adamantly, her grimace still painted on her face. Of course she wanted peace. Of course she wanted the killing to end. It had been going on since before she took up the mantle of Matriarch. “Having power doesn’t mean pushing your own agenda,” sh
A quartet of the Matriarch’s Royal Guards escorted the Ravens, Max, and his personal guard out not too long after they went in. It was certainly short enough to allay any suspicions, and curbed any deep speculations. The whole group went back down the grav lifts, but only by a half dozen floors. Fr

The hab itself was sparsely decorated and seemed barely lived-in. There was a small pile of personal things in bags and boxes in a corner of the large living room, which appeared to be the effects of the small family that had moved in. It seemed that they had just taken possession of the hab itself
The pup came to a small group of human and drogar children, who much like his own brethren were running around and playing with each other. They laughed and giggled as they chased each other gaily through the park. Unlike his brothers and sisters however, the pup found some excitement and enjoyment
This chapter occurs in the middle of Arc 8, between chapters 330 and 331. I meant to write it back then, but completely forgot. Whoops! Here it is now, as a bonus. Please enjoy! ~@~ It was within Central Park on the Unnamed Cruiser of the Corvus Republic that the shapeshifting wolves made their ho
Kali shivered slightly as she recalled that moment in time. Her body hunched over slightly as she grasped and embraced herself in an attempt to comfort the way she felt. More than that, her voice started to crack and waver as she spoke. “Everytime I looked at him, at anyone I tried to ‘be’ with, a
“Hey, you doing okay?” Amal asked her quietly. “You look like you could use some company.” She climbed up on the outcropping where Kali was, and set herself down next to her with a warm smile painted on her face. “Yeah, I guess,” Kali replied. “Just going through some stuff, nothing too bad.” “Fe

Her heart practically leapt out of her chest as she ran towards Lucifer. The sight of hir caused tears to well up in her eyes. They practically came streaming out by the time she reached hir pod. She placed her hands on the clear canopy as the desire to sweep Lucifer up in her arms overtook her. Fr
“Wonder how many people in the galaxy have three ultra rares,” she muttered to herself. “Something tells me it’s just me, at least for now.” There is also a high priority note from Raijin, her DI noted. Would you like to review it? Freya nodded. — Dearest friend, Welcome back to the land of the
