    Summary

    The most important relationships in ART's life are with the humans who raised it, and for whom it is now both home and friend. But ART lives almost entirely in the feed, where it is imperceptible to the humans unless it makes an active effort to be perceived. Struggling to be seen and understood, and to understand the humans who are its whole world, it turns to the thing it knows best: research.

    Summary

    Vex’ahlia and her brother hunt monsters for gold.

    Percy, a vampire, has a bounty on his head.

    Vex is very good with a bow.

    ———

    Vex slowly draws her bow as she hears the sound of quick and uneven footfalls far off on dry forest floor.

    She sees the creature she’s hunting at a distance. It’s dark enough that the world is melting into darkvision monochrome, but she can see that the monster wears a coat, that it’s in a terrible hurry, and that it’s limping.

    Vampires generally aren’t known for holding onto wounds. It was injured in the last minute or so—Vex isn’t the only one after the bounty.

    Vex nocks a holy arrow. She should take it out quick, one shot, so she doesn’t need to rush in with a silver dagger and make things messy. She’s so much better with a bow.
