I placed my hand against the window, half expecting it to fall through. You know, the way ghosts do in movies? I guess the movies weren’t all that true though, because to me the window seemed solid. I couldn’t feel the heat of the sun on the glass, but I could feel the way it stopped my hand.

In In Her Name: Confederation, Reza Gard returns to humanity and is honed by humanity [...]
