Nice opening!

Interesting, indeed.  I'll need to read that second post tomorrow, though.  Too close to bed time for me...

A bunch of sullen, sulking, teenager-level melodramatic aristocrats furious they’d been denied the toy they wanted, so they were going to destroy everything and then everyone would be sorry.

But Kirkan said nothing.

Kept his face blank.


It was the Combine way.


And if you delete the underlined sentences it's even more true :)

I meant I hadn't yet read all the chapters published.

Now I'm up to speed.

Interesting.

Kirkan is another well done character

Kikran is becoming a very interesting guy.
