And for the first time in a long time, Gent-081’s purpose outlived its power.
Gent-081 processed this. Subject: Elias. Status: Compromised mobility. Priority: Retrieval. Its internal chronometer ticked. Sector 7 had less than four hours of potable water left. Twenty thousand people.

The other slid beneath his knees, avoiding the fractured bone with a precision that a battlefield surgeon would have envied.
