Jaime's eyes did not leave the mural, but she seemed to be looking at
something far in the distance. "James is the only family I have. Our
parents were killed when the colony where we lived was attacked. A
'misunderstanding' over who owned the planet." Her voice dropped as
she finished. "We were six."
She took a breath and faced Chase. "Granny raised us. She wasn't a
member of the Brotherhood, but she was a sympathizer. Papa's death
made her one. James, he's the dedicated one. I pretty much joined
because he did."
"I can understand how your family became involved. We are lucky to
have folks like you and James on our side."Jaime shrugged off the compliment as if she didn't feel she deserved it. Then, with a determined smile, she said, "Didn't mean to be maudlin. Doesn't do anybody any good.
"What about you? What brings you into the Brotherhood?"
