Having your DNA, body, life, and cybernetic implants owned by a company means your life is worth an exact dollar amount. Then spurning that company and running, stealing a starship and openly allying themselves with one of the most feared creations in all of human occupied space. Means that your life may be worth more as scrap parts than living body. Vanhi and Caerdwyn didn't choose to life this way, but the desire for freedom from bondage was worth it. Sometimes that means drawing blood and trading like for like. Vanhi being built for this kind of work, her DNA and impants designed for hard talk when soft talk fails. Caerdwyn has no innate ability for asking hard questions, so she over compensates by carrying a pair of older pistols, does it work? So far no one has much to say about the matter, having a few extra breathing holes tend to make for poor conversation.
