The living story
The story so far
He was a bridge inspector, and he is the reason the arch holds — the one stone the rest trust. Marko locks into an immovable stance and holds: buildings, barricades, panicking crowds, he has held them all. He has never once been moved against his will. He is very polite about it.
Happening now
The Foundry span is swaying in the gale and Marko is at the mid-arch, locked in, being the still point the whole bridge leans on. The inspectors are taking readings off his shoulders. He is apologizing to the rivets. The rivets are holding.
What may come
Bulwark wants to learn his stance — to be a wall that never moves. Marko has agreed to teach her, on one condition: she has to be polite about it. Bulwark is practicing her manners. It is going well.

- The arch holds because of one stone. Marko is that stone — a man in his forties, strong, noble and strikingly handsome with warm bronze-brown skin, a shaven head and a big full lumberjack beard, a former bridge inspector whose compact, muscular frame locks into an immovable stance and holds. Buildings, barricades, panicking crowds: he has held them all, never once moved against his will, and he is very polite about it. Husband of Timika, father of Layla and Amari — together the four are the Core, the heart of House Dorsey.
