“They fight with a single-minded ferocity,” Nkiruka Olisaemeka commented darkly. Yan company’s Raven pilot and premier scout, comm. discipline had never been her strong suit. Independent and territorial, she’d surprised many a Dropship crewman on the long journey across the Inner Sphere when they’d unwittingly passed through a hallway in which she’d been lurking. Professional, in spite of her predatory nature, Nkiruka considered it as much her duty to film the battle for further study as to fight that battle.

“These warriors are either quite skilled,” she continued into her cockpit recorder. Its torso glowing white hot as it opened fire with its entire arsenal once again, the enemy Warhammer suddenly erupted in a blinding flash as its SRM ammunition detonated. Nkiruka cringed inwardly at the loss of valuable salvage, a machine like that would likely have been more valuable to the Capellan Confederation than the entire battalion combined. “Or quite bad,” she amended softly. “As of yet, Clan motives remain unclear.”
