Amelia Sherwood has worked for the Global Alliance and the Red Beacon both, and both have left her disillusioned. Now, Sherwood and her Hornets serve only themselves as the most infamous band smugglers in all of Mars' orbit. They present a unique threat, knowing both government and private sector secrets. With the authorities after them and the bounty on their heads beyond belief, Amelia, in a gamble we have come to expect from her, walks into the arenas of Farcana. Her win would secure true freedom for the Hornets and a legal base of operations for them on Mars.
