Story Arc
SFL-TE Chapter 8 — Worker City Departure
Laura was in the cockpit when Kynon Bancroft boarded the ship at the worker city on Lukyr Arix. She emerged to welcome him formally, identified herself as Cellan's wife and co-owner of the ship, and asked if there was anything she could do for him. When Kynon requested food, she fetched it from the onboard kitchen.
She noted that she had been told Kynon would be accompanied by someone and asked if they were running late. The question touched a raw nerve — Teeva Jakoby had refused to leave with Kynon shortly before. He turned away visibly affected; Laura apologized immediately, recognizing she had caused him pain without knowing the context. When he told her his companion was not coming, she accepted this without further questions. She then signaled Cellan via headset, and the engines started.
