Halcyone is kept with the staff-officers in training for another day. About halfway through the next day, she is called up and given transfer papers to work with the personal security of one of the top four generals. She is not to be in charge of the detail, merely to be part of the team.



The head of the detail meets her personally. He's a handsome looking fellow, dressed in a baggy uniform made to blend in with sand: a field uniform rather than a dress uniform. He looks at her. "They say you're a living terror in hand to hand. You don't look it. Welcome to Lithus and the heart of the rebellion. I'm Talthus, head of security for general Rubrum. Lets get you situated."


Halcyone is assigned to travel duty, protecting the Red General when he's traveling off of the base.


What is her next step?
