Sterfant turned and asked in an accusatory tone, “Did you follow my orders and have the ships return to their port of origin?”

Sterfant Dybin was the only of Mark’s officers there of their own choosing. She joined Mark at the battle of Orsa Four to help defeat her corrupt government. They made strong allies, with her rebel connections they took the entire system in two years time. She agreed with Mark’s philosophies, all of them. She was more loyal to him than any other officer, and he still considered Ja’net his right hand. She felt slighted by that, she always felt disrespected every time she thought of it.
