<p> Twenty-five years ago, Vale was quietly, yet forcibly discharged from the military, stripping from her the only life she ever knew. </p> <p> Now, at forty-eight years old and starting to feel her age, she finds herself wondering if she'll ever be able to atone for the sins of her past. </p> <p> Luckily for her, an opportunity has come up. A chance to get away from her record, a chance to start fresh. All she has to do is one little job: a security escort for a family of colonizers seeking to join a religious commune on a remote planet on the other side of The Prism. </p> <p> Since her military days, Vale has been convinced that there's no horror that war hasn't shown her. But she's about to discover how very wrong she is. </p> <p> [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] </p>
