Chapter Forty Six: As So Often, The Few Titan: Hybrid by Openhighhat
“Pane, what is it?” Forna Qorni said, looking over the latest status report from the Federation.

Twenty-five Archavian years later: “Eller, do me a favor and send a message to Mr. Takuatas that Dusty has recovered fully from his surgery so he can come pick him up tomorrow.” “Of course Dr. Shied, right away.” Fara smiled at her young assistant and stepped into her office. It had been a long day …
Chapter 34: Beginnings Titan: Sovereign by Johnny Scribe
The sounds of the traffic overhead played as a steady drum of white noise that unfortunately failed to drown out the spinning wheel of thoughts that played over and over inside Daz’s head.

Chapter Forty One: A time for words and a time for deeds Titan: Hybrid by Openhighhat
“Sorcha!” Alesia shouted as she exited the vehicle she’d driven up from the city to the Titan compound. “Sorcha!!” Sorcha was standing outside the main entrance, her head buried in her pad looking over the design that she and the Avalonian engineers had put together.
