The living story
The story so far
She was a test pilot, and she treated the sound barrier like a doorbell even before the Ringing rewrote her. Afterburn is Vesper's fastest responder — City-calls answered in under ninety seconds, plasma trail writing her name across three sunsets and one very confused air-traffic tower. She spends the saved time signing autographs for kids.
Happening now
She's teaching a junior Skybreaker cohort today — how to arrive fast without arriving wrecked. Her entire lesson is one sentence: the city is waiting, so don't keep it, but the city is also yours, so don't scare it. The kids are taking notes. So are the instructors.
What may come
Apogee has invited her to the edge of space for a real run — no city, no air, just speed and stars. Afterburn hasn't slept since the invitation arrived. Her flight suit is already packed.

The Skybreakers
Vesper's aerial guardians — the ones who answer calls above the rooftops. They ride the harbor winds, run the sky-lanes between the old fire-towers, and treat gravity as a suggestion. When something falls in this city — a plane, a crane, a kid off the Foundry bridge — a Skybreaker is already under it.
