Senti Ship
For
Priscilla, the Golden Band was more than just a new job.
Mercenary work was an untreaded path for Priscilla, as she had spent her entire life until only a few months before in the Duskerian Legion, serving the nation that had given her life. However, after deciding not to reenlist, Priscilla had left the New Dusk Conclave not only to avoid the ignoble fate of a
Vagabond, but also to pursue advancement where none had come to her in the military. To that end, she had invested in herself, drawing on her savings to make herself stronger, faster, and more lethal via advanced augmentations and weapons.
No more would she find herself caught in limbo, paralyzed in stagnation.
However, while Priscilla had invested in herself, it was immediately obvious that most of the other mercenaries had neglected to do so or simply lacked the means. It went without saying that everything in her kit, from her
katana to her
armor and her
weapons had been incredibly
expensive, enough that Priscilla herself needed this expedition to yield success, or else her finances might suffer. Fortunately, after being assigned to Charlie Battalion, the ex-NDC Infantrywoman realized that she wasn’t the only one to have equipped herself with more advanced gear than what was issued. There was another one, who her helmet’s systems quickly identified as Vedica Radcliff.
Immediately, Priscilla decided that she might benefit from following her.
Scanning her surroundings, Priscilla quickly examined the Senti corpses in the area, taking note of the fact that the enemy seemed to be using kinetic weapons. From there, the group moved into the hydroponics area, which had even more recent signs of battle.
Then, gunshots.
Priscilla’s ears twitched at the distant weapon reports, but the ex-NDC Sniper wasn’t green enough to panic. She instead brought her rifle up to position, senses and muscles primed to engage!
