The Bear's Cave - Sedona Station, Baffin (Formerly Freeport 14, Yukon)

[Zelot]

Otis Jethro stowed his sidearm and walked into the Bear's Cave. The sounds and smells reminded him of his younger days. Finding a quiet booth in the corner, Otis sat down. He was tired of being aimless, yes, he had money, but money had never been the goal. Even back in the good old days, money had just been a way to keep score. It was the constant challenge that Jethro had loved, and he missed it sorely in his life. The routine was getting boring, check in at Wall Street, make sure all of IND's secrets were remaining secret, and maybe fly a couple of loads inside Kusari or to the Sigmas. Otis thought with a laugh, after everything was gone and IND but a memory, its secrets were still powerful enough to bring down houses. That was the legacy of IND, an intricate web of secrets and deceptions.

The server came over and Jethro ordered a drink and some food. He placed a small golden statuette of a lotus at the edge of the table and waited.
