Gadriel Alison, Notes:

Attached to Captain Nole. Right, fine, dandy.

Native guide for the Londoner defense supplement. Not sure how I feel about that, then. It won't be like Harris. Hopefuly. Damn. Mentioned Harris. Have to burn this, now.

Sergeant Gadriel Alison switched off the radio and crawled out of his hole. A Leeds Active Reconnaissance Armour and Environment Unit barely resembles a man. A six foot man stands half a meter off the ground, leaning slightly forward, supported by the pressure hooks and gimbals inside the suit. Below his legs, the Laraeu's legs swing forward, spreading to four talons. Inside, the man walks backward, swinging his legs up as the chickenwalkers extend forward. One foot down, another extending forward, the Laraeu bounces and darts from side to side.

Supported upon gimbals, balanced by a pair of gyros, a pod holds a human pilot, and mounts for lasers, missiles, and a few ballistics, the Rhienland built, Cambridge designed scout quickly jounced across the surface, headed home, or at least toward base.
