Summary
"You want to give up, throw it all away?" he asks.
Calleigh almost shrugs. "Haven't I done that already?" A silence stretches out, lengthens. "Do you feel sorry for me?"
Stroud's face is impassive. "We do not recruit Wardens out of pity" he says, voice low. "It is no kindness."
"Good" she mutters. "Don't think I deserve that."
Stroud studies her intently. "The choice is yours. I will return in the morning for your decision." He turns and leaves without a backwards glance. She's alone again.
Sleep does not find her, but a last vestige of something does.
It's felt like she's had one foot in the grave for years. So what would it matter, to put in the other?
A series of key events and moments in the life of Calleigh Thorne, before she became the leader of the Veilguard.

Summary
"I've been meaning to ask" Neve begins. "You have a real name, I presume?"
"Filling in your case notes, are you?"
Neve hides her mouth from the rest of the room behind her hand, drops to a half-whisper. "I'll never tell."
"Well, for the record—" Calleigh pauses and clears her throat theatrically. "—I do. And it's got nothing to do with chess."
"Go on" Neve says.
The development of the relationship between Neve Gallus and Calleigh Thorne, framed by the names one calls the other.
