Chapter 568: The Gloves Come Off I
It was a fairly hard rule that Sentinels weren’t bothered on their time off. Susan regularly sent Elaine letters when I was off rotation, asking to chat socially, or simply sending me interesting little tidbits of information. With her information processing capabilities combined with her multitasking, I had no doubt that she was in close contact and communication with hundreds, if not thousands of people.
I also regularly met with the rest of the War Sentinels, just one of the many social gatherings and ties I had. It was a fun weekly thing, helped get me out of the house, and all that good stuff.
Sentinel Dawn was never summoned by Sentinel Arachne though. That didn’t happen.
Or rather, I’d been warned it might happen, under the most dire of circumstances.
The poor [Courier] at the door didn’t know what hit her. I flashed over at full speed, runes glowing on my body to not create a villa-destroying sonic boom, and read the letter without opening it.
Dawn,
Urgently need you at Castle Stormwatch.
Bring your entire team.
Arachne.
