Chanur's Legacy
“The Legacy’s hold was not full, the cargo was light-mass, the crew on watch was minimal to the safety requirements, and as soon as they hit their assigned lane for the outward run, the crew was snug in beds, sound asleep, except for the captain, who had the sole watch, who was propping her eyes open and seeing ghosts in the shadows of the bridge.She never had done such a turnaround since she came to the Legacy, never hoped to do another. And when they had gotten out past the worst of the dust, ...and the rocks that attended the planetary vicinity, the captain set autopilot, tilted the cushion to flat relative to the accel plane and wrapped herself in a blanket for a rest.Musing on tc’a and outraged stsho, wandering in a mental wilderness of white on white...Thinking of The Pride and the human aboard her, thinking of a friendly face and eyes of unhani color. Tully wouldn’t have turned on her, Tully wouldn’t have attacked poor cousin Dahan and broken his head. She hated her late husband; and hated cousin Harun.MoreLess
