A Firefly-class transport emerges from the Grasmere ice cloud at cruise speed. An illustration of a jellyfish with the inscription "Vanity" is the only thing that distinguishes this particular Firefly from any other. She is flying heavy with GMG-labeled tanks of HFuel.
August Redburn is sitting at the helm beside his head pilot, Sage Marik. August avoids spending much time in the house systems; partly because of his criminal record in Bretonia. But deep down, he realizes he can't escape his heritage. He is a Bretonian at heart. He will contribute to the war effort by doing what he does best: Smuggling HFuel supplies behind enemy lines to the heart of Bretonia itself.
He does not want to tell anyone about his deeds; not even his father.
