He voluntarily joined the Black Widow Company after New Delos, expecting that the unit with the highest combat bonus would help him pay his debts, which otherwise would have ended in his disgrace and exile,[2] and had participated in all of its actions up through 3025.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
Over the years, he earned and lost fortunes many times over, and remained in debt. Natasha Kerensky protected him from his creditors, and he returned her consideration with loyalty and courage in battle.[2]
