Outlaw Torri Rendego has spent the years since the hated Coalition came to power trying to avoid its forces and make a living running legit and not-so-legit products across various quadrants.

Shay just had a bad dating experience, and she’s frustrated about finding anyone who’d be willing to meet her “not looking for anything too serious right now” requirement. Thinking that it’s probably best that she just continue with her “single gal” vibe, she focuses instead on her neighbor’s impending dinner party. That’s the ticket, Shay thinks. Maybe she’ll meet some prospects. But then again, maybe her prospects aren’t as distant as the thinks.
