Trigger Argee is a sharp‑eyed, disciplined cadet at the sprawling Colonial School on the gleaming White City of Ceyce. At twenty‑four, she balances rigorous training with a cool confidence, her twin‑barrel Denton pistol a testament to her precision and calm under pressure. The academy’s sunrise routines, tropical parks, and high‑tech firing ranges paint a vivid backdrop for a life lived on the edge of tomorrow’s science.
One crisp morning, while she’s methodically clearing a volley of moving targets, an aircar descends abruptly, its occupants sparking a familiar, teasing banter with the school’s staff. The unexpected arrival pulls Trigger into a brief, tense exchange that hints at deeper currents beneath the campus’s orderly surface. With her gun at her side and curiosity piqued, she agrees to a private discussion that promises to pull her away from routine training and toward a mystery that could reshape her future.
