Line 33: == Plot Summary == == Plot Summary == − Tensions are high on Mirach in the aftermath of the Blackout. The planet's minister of information, Elora Rimonova, openly foments unrest against the pacifistic Governor Sergio Ortega and key business leader Marta Kinsolving, using her control of Mirach's communications network. The economy is in crisis, shattered by the HPG collapse, and the planet has caught the attention of the rogue industrialist Jacob Bannson.+ {{sectionstub}} − − Brothers Austin and Dale Ortega, members of their father's elite First Cossack Lancers, fear for the planet. When Dale's lover Hanna Leong is assassinated, shortly followed by Dale himself, Austin finds himself searching for the truth. Before his investigation can amount to much, though, the culprit makes her move. Rimonova, alongside manipulated Legate Calvilena Tortorelli, launches a military coup, seeking to hand the planet over to Kal Radick's Steel Wolves. − − Through the combination of Sergio's plots and manipulations, Marta's Mirach Business Association IndustrialMech force, Republic agent Jerome Parsons's ''Atlas'', and Austin's heartfelt pleas and museum-recovered ''Centurion'', the planetary government fends off the coup attempt. Rimonova is sent into exile, and Tortorelli, left in his post, is stripped of his powers. ==Featured characters== ==Featured characters== − {{div col|colwidth=25em}} * [[Austin Ortega]] * [[Austin Ortega]] * [[Benton Nagursky]] * [[Benton Nagursky]] Line 46:
