Biography

Bessa escorts food consignments through Saint Orra with a patched coat, silver ear crests and a firm interest in a real lunch break. Ena and Jo know her well enough to help steer her cart while she describes a sleeping compartment that folded around her nightshirt. She recovered the shirt and booked a fixed bunk for the next leg. Her own work and onward berth keep her moving.
