The natives might be primitive, but they packed a hell of a punch. When Gertrude peeled her right eye open her head was ringing like a bell. Her artificial left eye flickered to life as she became conscious. She was alone, in a spacious cell of mud bricks.

Gertrude eyed the stranger for a long time. He seemed content to watch her through the augmented vision of his mask, and was in no rush to start the hand-to-hand fight he knew was coming.

Nice series ending, Thad. I was wondering how you'd package it all up!

And thanks to Glitch for the opportunity. It's oddly difficult writing 12 connected short stories, but I was lucky to have something in storage well-suited to the format (the first five episodes or so I'd effectively sketched out some years ago). Indeed, the first episode I'd actually written (although I did have to tone down the language and slightly amend it for the word count).

May one day use this as the springboard for a novel, but with Sir Edric and the trilogy I'm working on that won't be next year.
