    Summary

    When Thomas Barrow is medically discharged from the Imperial fleet, he has no desire to return to the backwater planet where his family lives. Running short on money and options, he is forced to ask his former employer, Lord Grantham, if he might return to service in his seasonal home in the capital planet of Odin. But things have changed since Thomas left service to go into the fleet, and he does not fit back easily into the old way of things. With a lesser position and new enemies, Thomas finds life on Odin difficult to bear.

    Newly awarded the title of count, Reinhard von Lohengramm finds returning to the capital after being out in space intolerable. He wants nothing more than to be on his flagship, fighting the next battle, with Kircheis by his side. In contrast to that, the court on Odin is a pit of serpents, especially for the formerly middle class Reinhard, who is disliked by the majority of the nobility. When one of his few allies in court, the Baroness Magdalena von Westpfale, demands that he play the social game for his sister's sake, Reinhard reluctantly agrees and tries to join the court life.

    The court season of 486 I.C., in the heart of the dying Galactic Empire, will be the last one of its kind.

    Summary

    “You’re displeased,” Kircheis heard from behind him, cutting off his thoughts, but he waited until Reinhard halted his pacing to come join him on the couch to answer. Reinhard sat close, his cape fluttering with the movement. He continued, as though without pause, “Aren’t you?”

    Kircheis tilted his head, as though studying Reinhard, looking for something. But he had nothing in mind, not really—he just needed the beat of silence. Reinhard’s face was serious, and he looked tired, his eyes more grey than blue in the low light. But his expression was open, and the rain cohered with the quiet and the late hour to soften him, his mood a near perfect match for the weather. Reinhard was like that, though Kircheis wasn’t sure he noticed, the reactive, responsive way he could mirror the world around him.

    **

    On the eve of the Imperial civil war, Kircheis considers the past, and he considers Reinhard.
