"You’re a monster," Nurin wheezed, her voice a thin, broken wire.Galen didn't blink. He caught her, his hands steady, his eyes fixed on the man in the charcoal suit stepping through the airlock."I’m a realist, Nurin," Galen said, his voice as flat as a desert horizon.

"You weren't supposed to find that for another hour," Galen said, his voice flat, devoid of the warmth that had defined their entire existence.
