Moria MacLean whimpered, pulling her knees up to her chest. She knew she was better then this, she wanted to be better then this, but she was trapped, alone in the dark aboard an alien vessel. Her crew was dead or imprisoned. She squeezed her eyes tight, hoping, praying to whomever or whatever was listening that this was all a bad dream, that all she had to do was open her eyes and she’d wake up in a Concordat sickbay.

Children of Heaven: Choir of Silence, Chapter 28
“They must have picked up something,” Smithy mused. “Not enough to sniff us out, or they’d all be after us, but enough to make them curious.” “Should we respond?” Commander Alain Juchy asked, biting his lip. “If they hold to that course, they’ll pass within 10,000 klicks of us.” “No, not unless we know they’ve seen us. If we shoot them down, we’ll blow the ambush. Communications, see what you can do about jamming them, but don’t initiate until my order. Guns: stay on your count down to launch. Whatever happens, don’t abort. We have to get their big ships.”

Children of Heaven: Choir of Silence, Chapter 27
A single star system swelled to prominence on the holographic view and there was a ripple in the assembled officers as they recognized it. “Unicorn Set. This is the second hardest target the Lefu have, ladies and gentlemen.” Hunt’s voice was granite, radiating nothing but pure conviction. “And we’re going to take it out.”
Children of Heaven: Choir of Silence, Chapter 26
As the commodore moved to take her leave, Arykka did acquiesce a little, though she did not look up. “I was there the day the gods fell,” she said into the silence. It was a single sentence, one that meant so many things for the Evea’shi. This time, there was no doubt what it meant. When we come, you will fall.

Children of Heaven: Choir of Silence, Chapter 25
It was the last. It had been one of the first, and now it was the last. It was speeding through the cosmos, scarred repair systems attempting to regenerate its sole vital system. It was not intelligent enough to reflect on what had led it to this point, nor introspective enough to consider the weight of the data it carried.
