At long last, peace emerges from the bitter war that ravaged

the words of the Narvan. Anastassia Kazan brought about the

end to the fighting between Vayen Ta’set’s homeworld of Artor

and their rival, Jal. When she offers Vayen a job on her team

of bodyguards, he leaps at the opportunity. He’ll do anything

to keep Artor on the path to recovery.

Protecting the paranoid and mercurial woman whose deals

and threats keep everyone in line is a tough, thankless task.

One drunken night with Anastassia makes Vayen question

why he got the job and whether he should keep it. But no one

else on the team is willing to earn Anastassia’s disfavor by

calling her out on her reckless choices. Reckless will get her

killed and send the Narvan back into chaos.

Not everyone is happy with Anastassia’s changes on his

homeworld and beyond. She’s also on less-than-friendly terms

with her deadly ex-partner. Then Vayen discovers that

Anastassia is only middle management. The Council she

works for has ambitious plans for the Narvan’s military forces.

How much is Vayen willing to sacrifice to keep the Narvan at

peace?
