Battleground
“Endeavor had come openly to Battleground, gifting Soldiers with images of human society, hiding nothing. The pod did not even have a camouflage program for its white skin and Endeavor carried no secretive devices to make a human body blur from sight; personal proximity shields were manufactured not for spying but for casual anonymity in public spaces, and in any case were based on the parameters of human vision and might be ineffective with Soldiers. So Hanna’s approach had to be as stealthy as... she could make it. Her descent took her first to the sea sixty kilometers from the settlement, and she approached the clearing chosen for touchdown on manual control, hugging waves and then treetops when she reached land, ports opaque and exterior lights quenched. She kept the pod at a hover over the small field for a few minutes, probing with invisible sensors, in case an insomniac Soldier had decided to take a walk. None had, apparently. She did not even know if the Soldiers of That Place ever walked abroad in black night.MoreLess
