***A Four Horsemen Universe Short Story*** The Quest Continues! Jim Cartwright is commander of Cartwright’s Cavaliers, one of Earth’s storied Four Horsemen mercenary companies. He’s not your typical merc commander. He’s overweight and, at 20 years old, he’s the youngest person to ever take the reins. After a series of successful contracts, though, Jim’s brought the Cavaliers back from the brink of financial ruin. Having discovered a functioning Raknar—a 20,000-year-old, 100-foot-tall war machine left from another era—Jim was able to use it to win a decisive battle. But now Jim wants more. Lots more, and his quest for knowledge has led him halfway across the galaxy. Now he’s reached the end of his quest; the Science Guild. Jim hopes that by digging in the timeless archives of the Science Guild, he’ll find answers to his questions. Instead, what he finds is a deadly threat and the end of his quest.
