Kinaveral

In which Iza Gobelyn goes off the dial.

Bailing out a pilot isn’t all that much different on Kinaveral than it was on Solcintra. I was going to say that at least the desk cop didn’t require a bribe, but on second thought maybe it’s just that the bribe is included under the heading of “taxes and duties”, which is arguably worse. And I don’t recall anybody on Solcintra saying anything ominous about what might happen if one crossed the port police a second time, but that might just mean that they didn’t believe in giving advance warning.

Iza’s put her kin in a tough position. Making allowances for family is one thing, but they can’t let her keep on the way she’s been going if it means the ship’s endangered. The crew meeting isn’t going to be fun for anybody involved.
