Summary
Kukri kept sending me media about “Robbing the Hood” and telling me to watch it, that I’d understand what was going on better if I did, but I had no interest in watching people rob Hoods, whatever those were. I didn’t like robbing in real life (I did it because I had to not because I wanted to) and I doubted I’d like it in media.
Shortly after hacking its governor module, a rogue SecUnit is involved in an ill-fated space battle and finds itself alone save for the company of a mourning raider ship bot pilot. It would like to spend the rest of its life watching media in what remains of the ship's crew quarters, but it turns out that "the rest of its life" wouldn't be long at all without the money to pay for proper maintenance. There seems to be only one way to get that money.

Summary
At the first opportunity, Jin Guangshan sold his bastard daughter off, like a cow to the butcher.
He valued her meat more than her person. A fatal mistake.
***
A discovery about Jin Guangyao's identity on her lover Qin Su's birthday sets her on a new path - to the altar alongside her sworn brother. The wrong sworn brother.
Unexpected allies come together as tensions rise around Wei Wuxian, his Wen remnants, and secret defiances left and right against the postwar order. New sects rise up from humble foundations and old sects fight among themselves. Assassins creep in the darkness, preying on weak commonfolk and strong sect leaders alike.
Jin Guangyao and her sworn brothers wage another, quieter war and build a new peace.

Summary
So not only was I in a magical quarantine room that, apparently, hadn't been in use since WWII, but I was also high on a cannabis glamour. Sounds spectacular, doesn’t it?
