Overview
Quiet confidence and dry humour accompany Daniel into Kestrel’s defence and the covert Grey Nomad mission.
Full account
Daniel arrives at Kestrel alongside Christer among the House reinforcements. Faced with the damaged medical level, his understated greeting to Anton is a comment on an interesting holiday.
In the next chapter, he joins Christer aboard the Grey Nomad under independent registry. His alias is Dan Ward. He watches surveillance angles, handles a data slate and keeps his connection to Joel and Anton concealed.
His short brown hair, light stubble and sturdy build distinguish him from Christer. His long black coat and restrained crimson trim belong to his House appearance; covert scenes use their own practical clothing.
