Rivka Anoa

JJE01 You Have Been Judged/Introduction

Respected by Nathan Lowell, who has nicknamed her the "Queen's Barrister". Although barristers often mete out Justice under the Yollin Accord, we don’t kill people. An intern, to start. Terry Henry’s contract was the last legal matter she completed as an intern. In the eyes of the Queen, she had never been just an intern. Rivka Anoa had always been the Queen’s Barrister, a gifted champion for Justice...

“I love the law,” she told her cell. And it was that very same law that was going to condemn her. She embraced the title of Barrister. It made her sound stately. She had never wondered what it was like for the men who executed prisoners; who saw the sentences carried out. The guards were only tools of Justice, just as she was. Knives to carve the cancers, as the legal system determined them to be, out of society. Cancers, as she told juries they were.

Stay away from silver. Can kill you. don't know why. Nanocytes have a weakness to it. Went into the pod-doc. The AI started to work. It sampled her DNA and started to program the nanocytes to make Rivka’s body stronger and heal itself faster; help her do all the things she could do already, but orders of magnitude better. Did she want to be taller? Sure. Plus her up a little. The Magistrate reached the door spoke over his shoulder. “Give her something fantastic to change how she sees herself. Maybe the eyes. Give her eyes like no one else’s.” The technician browsed the database. Then there they were, simple yet exotic: a golden-blue hazel with oversized irises. He input the settings for those, and also added a greatly improved ability to see in the dark. “Pretty eyes that are functional, although they are like someone else’s. They’ll never find out about Midnight Sass.”

“You’re five centimeters taller, about fifteen kilos heavier, and your eyes are a different color. Your muscles are far denser now. You’ll have to get used to those, so you don’t accidentally break stuff. He showed her how quickly she would heal (cut her palm). Your night vision is far beyond any normal human’s capability. It rivals that of cats.”

Grainger sends Rivka back into the pod-doc. Faulty programming. “Add two more centimeters in height, improved hearing, and give her the full combat package.” Also asks that she be made more resistant to higher temperatures on planets, to better function as a Magistrate. Grainger gives her her first Magistrates jacket. It belonged to Magistrate Felcario Renaldo Squitieri. He died in the line of duty.”

Named the Queen's Barrister by Bethany Anne, because she could "see things" other people couldn't, which made her special in Bethany Anne's eyes. “She let go and said, ‘You are special. You see things, don’t you?’ I’ve always had the ability to see random emotions but never thought much of it. I thought of it as intuition, nothing more. I stumbled through an incoherent answer, but BA stopped me. It is what you will be from this moment forward. Even though you haven’t graduated yet, you will. Don’t fuck it up. I’ll call in my marker at some point. You’ll know it when you see it. Make me proud, Rivka Anoa—proud that we have fucking laws and people like you out there helping the universe’s twatwaffles understand what it takes to comply with them.’ And then she walked away.”
