Admiral Huword
TVC 05/03, 04 Jotun, Admiral in Jotun Navy. Well-liked, shining star. Close to Jotun Senate Committees. Well recogonized, promoted, etc. Jeltor thought of him as a good friend. Had captained the Juteld, was finally assigned to the Gar’aemon, a scout ship, a scout ship. which patrols the borders of our territory. A lot more to do, but possibly a demotion. No one was sure.” Jeltor paused. “I hadn’t had a chance to speak to him about it.” Was traveling with Ferqar to learn more about his new job.
Murdered on Srisa. The killer knew the workings of Huword's suit. Had disconnected it, ruined it (bashing the input and output array, TVC 05/17)), and he had suffocated. Someone had targeted Huword specifically.
TVC 05/12, 16, Jeltor had suspicions, and told Barnabas about them. Learned that Huword was helping Senate (a spy who for years had fed information to the Senate about the mutinous rumblings in the Navy. Any number of issues had been quietly averted, the instigators promoted or shamed or put in the way of convenient missiles., and that he had been independently killed, not by Senate or by Navy, but by private group (another government?) , headed by Gil and Wev, who had hired Kantar to do so. She had done so. Huword really a sadist. Enjoyed pain, suffering. Was in league with Senate Committee to destroy outlying colonies, capture inhabitants for scientific experiments.
