The star clans asked us four remaining pacers to stand guard for Virva’s funeral, at sunset the next night. Because they held their memorial out in the desert, because they worked with blood, there was always a danger of desert cats or wild dogs disrupting. It was a kindness and an honor for them to include us. A hand of friendship I was not sure we deserved.

But we all said yes.

It was impossible to know if the tulip’s detonation had been the fault of mage or pacer. The lookouts and shield rows of Moon Shard team had not seen a mistake by either, though obviously there had been one, and the after-investigation revealed only that it had not been set off by a secondary trigger or hidden rebel. All we knew was something had gone wrong in the cleaning and balancing, and the tulip’s blast threw both mage and pacer into the wall of the house, which then collapsed upon them, along with the roofs. It made a crater of the road.

I was glad we did not have one or the other of them to blame.
