We see Ah Toy, the notorious war criminal the Devil of Dashan, delivered to justice and spend the next six weeks on the dirt repairing our ship and remodeling it. We finally take care of the volcanic dust contamination. We convert six of our second class forward cabins to five en suite first class cabins. We install a retractable light machine gun mount below the bridge in the hidey hole off the passenger deck. We further disguise the entrances of the missile bays with fake shelving and surfaces. While we still don’t have a pistol stash box on the bridge, we install one in engineering and in the cargo bay airlock. We convert a storage closet under the cargo bay stairs into a secure weapons locker. We do the same for the closet off the conference room behind the bridge and a starboard storage locker in the corridor leading to engineering. Facilitating the work is an infusion of equipment in the machine shop. Rina’s finally got it stocked with the machines to fabricate what needs to be done and repairs if necessary.<br><br> | We see Ah Toy, the notorious war criminal the Devil of Dashan, delivered to justice and spend the next six weeks on the dirt repairing our ship and remodeling it.

| − | Rina assembles emergency kits to stash in various places on our ship in case we're boarded and held hostage. War is brewing and whether it turns into a cold war or a hot one, she wants to be prepared for it, off ship and on. <br><br> | + | Rina assembles emergency kits to stash in various places on our ship in case we're boarded and held hostage. She also draws up plans for a concealed gun safe as we'd had on ''Summer's Gift''.

For herself, Nika has made it clear what her intentions are with regards to the coming conflict. She intends to make some noise. Flying Harbinger during the war wasn’t about ideology. It something she did because she was young and wanted to fly the trickiest, toughest, most exciting ship out there. Now it’s different—she has deeper reasons to get involved, not the least of which she doesn’t like the fact that the Feds are cracking down on the non-Core worlds again, including searching the ranches on Boros. Her Independent leanings are definitely coming to the fore and they’re pointing her toward helping Blue Sun. Starting with the extraction job on Boros, she’s been increasingly willing to get back in the game. During our downtime, she’s told her crew that if they are not aboard with this, they need to talk. So far, no one’s felt the need for that conversation.<br><br> | For herself, Nika has made it clear what her intentions are with regards to the coming conflict. She intends to make some noise.
