Ares spoke truth, and it bothered me. He had always been a master of the political art, but I'd never thought of him as a sage. Well, I still didn't think of him as a sage, but he was now surprisingly ... |

My eyes went wide as Ares' mouth refused to stop moving. I couldn't say I hadn't intended to shift his line of thought, but now it was a runaway train. He hadn't stopped to think about what he was say ... |

I stood before Ares, the words I wanted to say not even materializing in my mind. What was there to say, in my predicament? I couldn't do anything to make Ares' burden lighter, nor my own. What had be ... |

I raced through the halls as fast as I reasonably could, the security guards eying me curiously. They knew me and let me pass into Ares' office; they knew why I was rushing so quickly. I could see it ... |

It was the morning of the eleventh day since the New Year, and it was still hell. There hadn't been an attack in four days - which everyone seemed to believe was a blessing - and there was only more a ... |

Jagged Fel, one of the Remnant's most enlightened leaders, was dead. I didn't think Kira nor I heard most of the words Ares spoke after revealing that factoid. Meanwhile, Ares had looked at us as if h ... |

We both knew Ares was right. The silence confirmed that Commodore Daast agreed. Fran Ulgo was dead. Akatos was dead, as were most of the other, viable admirals. Ares himself would be dead, if everythi ... |

Idly picking at my chin, I listened to what Ares was saying. He was right. Well, I didn't really know how it was before the Union - I was too young. I knew how the galaxy would be without the Union. B ... |
