Déorsa Navensi considered himself a revolutionary in the service of an oppressed people. The Solar Navy considered him a pirate, and a danger to the safe commerce in the Yami Belt. Needless to say, there was merit to both arguments. In the time of the Third Incursion, later known as the Age of Ashes, Captain Navensi and his band of cutthroat commandos were the terror of the provincial settlements in the belt, as well as the necromantic Abhva hordes from Planet X who intended no less than the extinction of all life in the system.
