Located at the zenith of their dome-shaped prow, the command deck of a grounded DropShip was ill-suited to watching a `Mech battle. Nonetheless, Wilberforce perched precariously on the backrest of a chair straining for a look. He shut out the bustle and shouted orders of the ship’s crew as they worked to bring the vessel online. They were warriors, and worthy of his attention, but his forte wasn’t starship operations so he ignored them.

“Status?” the vessel’s captain—Wilberforce couldn’t remember his name—demanded.

“The enemy is still too close,” Wilberforce replied. He still had no worthy advice for the combatants—from his limited vantage, the injured warrior just couldn’t see any patterns in the enemy’s activity. A pallor of smoke hung over everything, and the slight curve of the transplex panes distorted things still further. From his perspective, the fight was little more than a murky mess.

Even so, Piet’s death didn’t pass unnoticed. Her headless Banshee still stood stark upright, the defiance in the set of its dead legs was unmistakable. Without the main computer to guide it, the pulsating glow of the `Mech’s fusion power plant died as the ungoverned reaction failed. Wilberforce only blinked in silence as the battle raged on a thousand light years away.
