Talyn coughed as acrid smoke from her Omni’s damaged fusion plant filled her cockpit with thin, wispy plumes. They hung around her like undulating serpents and water streamed from both eyes as the air circulators simply pushed the smoke around. She batted at the rank cloud and her `Mech mirrored the motion, its arms flailing like a man trying to fend off one of Arcadia’s gigantic swamp mosquitoes. In theory the clouds were simply a mild irritant, just trace amounts of a variety of chemicals and ozone, but her last major engine overhaul had been made with local materials. Even so, they should have been completely harmless.
Provided she wasn’t allergic, she conceded after another paroxysm of coughing.
The urge to stand, to pull the quick-release and crack open her cockpit canopy was almost too much to bear—but the air outside was even worse: the fast-growing local trees released hydrogen sulfide as they burned, and had to be treated with extreme care. Her adopted Clan had taken to bulldozing them away from any truly important areas though even that never seemed to prevent their rapid regrowth. The locals had always maintained that the trees had a tendency to spontaneously combust once they grew large enough. Talyn had never cared enough to learn whether or not that was true.
She stared downfield, her targeting reticule blurred by the salty tears that filled her stinging eyes. Her target was indistinct, a wobbling blob of color. The flickering blast of her pulse laser missed cleanly, a greater threat to some low-flying local fauna than her chosen target. She couldn’t stand it any longer. She had to get to some clean air and flush the smoke from her already cramped cockpit.
For the first time since the Hell’s Horses had installed her neural implants, Talyn found herself wishing she still wore a neurohelmet.
