The bridge of the Vehement was preternaturally calm, given the circumstances. Ambrose Belgard, on the other hand, was not. He sat alone on the quiet, dark bridge, slumped in his chair staring out onto the bright red sphere of Mars below him. The mesas, the mountain faces, the green expanses of ocean.

And the Amano capital ships hovering just in low orbit above it all, their dropships still descending.

The other houses hadn’t mobilized their forces yet. That was worrisome. At this rate the Amanos would be ready for them when they did manage to muster a response. All across Mars the Amano fleets loomed in a way that made Ambrose’s stomach tie in knots. It reminded him of something he’d only read about, or heard stories third hand from dockworkers in the Freeholds.

Allies taking up arms against allies. Mercenary contractors picking at the bones of the still bleeding. Betrayal from the highest laying the lowest even lower.

It reminded him of the Kennet Rebellion. It reminded him of the First Jovian War.

And his team were in the thick of it.
