She’d been born wrong, or maybe just born early—like the universe spat her out before it was finished making her, half-cooked and already on fire. There was no cradle. No lullaby. Just a crawlspace under a broken hab-dock on some unrecorded moon, and the stench of something dead rotting just out of reach. She didn’t cry when she was born, and she never really learned how to afterwards.

The first thing she learned was that names could be stolen. The second was that nobody gave a damn if you died in the dark. She took the first to heart and used it often. The second made her mean.

Blight—that’s what she calls herself now, though she’s had more aliases than years in her life—grew up like a wound nobody wanted to stitch. First as a boy (for safety), then as a ghost (for escape), then as something more dangerous than either. She ran with the gangs, then from them. Learned to smile like a trap and lie like she had religion. She cut her teeth on back-alley blood and backseat betrayals, and eventually, she got good at surviving. Too good. Good enough that no one trusted her, not even the women she held in the hours before dawn, sweaty and laughing, telling her they’d kill for her—never realizing that she would kill them first if the pay was right.

It was never about love. Love was for people who weren’t trying to forget what their own name sounded like.

She’s worked every angle the Fold had to offer. Smuggler. Gun-for-hire. Dropzone cle
