The City Who Fought

Simeon was a shell-person - the brain who ran Space Station SSS-900, on the fringes of human space. But things hadn't been going too well lately, and he was more than a little discontented. Though normally he enjoyed his work, these days it seemed boring.

Sheltering the colony's refugee's brought "the city" an invitation to serious trouble with Kolnari pirates.
