She didn’t like it that I’d turned my back on the pantheon. My long tenure among witches rubbed salt into the wound.

How many secrets does the Army hold? At least one that concerns me, which I found out after they decided I was unnecessary. That advice about telling the truth? It's highly overrated. They say there is a point where you can't go anywhere but up. I have to think guarding an underwear factory is such a point after running ops in the Sandpit overseas.
