Sarah’s mind spun with all the implications of what Harmony was saying. This was the kind of world she’d expected to wake up on in the first place, then—somewhere long after a colony had finished, because of course the damn army wouldn’t be needed on most places. They’d make her because they made everyone right before the colony transitioned to a real government. She’d wake up just in time to get a vote and find herself a new job, probably teaching surfing to some aliens and partying on weekends.
