And as her closest living descendent, Chanam had a responsibility to her. He carefully calibrated the scope on his rifle. Naturally, she thought he was fully occupied, but the biological and synthetic modifications he’d undergone in his youth gave him more than just quicker reflexes. One stream of consciousness calculated various atmospheric conditions, another watched her through one of the OAD’s many...
