Steele and Dax are called into something that looks like an interrogation room. A Huit officer sits on the other side of a transparent divider.
"You two. You are air warriors, yes? There are many places for you to use your skills in our sky fleet, and we would like to ask you to join us. If you survive to finish a tour of duty in this war, you will be given freedom. Then you may return to your homes, or make a new home here, with us. All we request is your assistance in repelling the barbarians of the north, I assure you we will not force you to fight on your home soil. Yet, if you choose to remain loyal to your home, we will honor your decision. You will not be forced into service of the military. You will instead become a sportsman in the Grand Stadium. If you have any questions or requests, please ask."

There has been a change of plans. Command is not organizing a rescue mission.
