Description
A Dark and Dirty War by Eric Thomson The end of the Shrehari War brought little respite to veterans like Siobhan Dunmoore. As the Fleet returned to peacetime, they found themselves struggling to adapt after years of intense conflict. The memories of their experiences were fading, replaced by careerists, bureaucrats, and politicians in uniform who seemed more interested in maintaining the status quo than in leading. As a result, many senior officers began to understand that true peace was an illusion. Without a common external threat, humans had resumed their tendency to fight each other over power, profit, or glory. This trend threatened the delicate social and political balance of the Commonwealth, risking violent unrest. The veterans who had once been at the forefront of conflict resolution were now being overlooked. Siobhan Dunmoore and her comrades are among those left feeling unwanted as they struggle to find a new role in halting the growing threat to human unity.
