About
A member of the Anchorage splinter cell in The Guttering Light — the humanised militant Cross boards and interrogates, given no clean redemption. He is right that the lane is being killed but pursues it by force, against the Charter. He knowingly accepted the casualties as "pressure," used Noor Dewan's act as justification, and lied to Joon Vared about it; he then dies holding the last threading window, the only one who knows the sabotaged vane. His sin and his usefulness both stay true.
