Plot summary

Clan Snow Raven aerospace fighter pilot Ilya, of the 15th Raven Garrison, fights Clan Jade Falcon forces above Circe to defend the genetic repository at Dehra Dun. After two failed trials, Ilya piloted a mere Bashkir, configuration B. This fight is his chance to regain honor and dignity. However, during his attack on a Falcon dropship, he is surprised by a Vandal snuck in under cover of an unbid DropShip, and as his fighter plummets towards Circe, he is unsure whether to eject or to die.
