ISV Acheron
“I have heard of you ,” Sachin said, “if, of course, you are Lorian Aristedes . You know, I was at Comum, I served aboard the battleship Acheron , in the defense of Malki Station .” Some half-forgotten part of him stirred, and Lorian struck his breast with a fist, raised an open hand in salute. He had served at Comum himself, on and around the planet. Malki Station had been out on the fringes of the system, a Legion refueling station for the Imperial navy. “I recall the Acheron .” “And I the Tamerlane ,” Sachin said. “Were it not for your people, we would have been lost.” The Cielcin had overrun the system, descended upon Comum with two of their worldships, vast as moons. They had bombarded the planet, bombed the capital to rubble, killed the Count and his family, and carried off millions of the natives for meat and slaves. Only the timely arrival of the Red Company at the head of an Imperial fleet for what was meant to be a chance patrol had delivered the system from disaster.
