Her name's the Aquila, and, quite by accident, she has become something of a symbol of my Amaranth story. In many ways, she is the focal point of the story: the first part revolves around the rebel attempt to "liberate" her from a Commonwealth drydock, and over the course of the rest of the story she serves as a home for many of the heroes, and the most visible (and, towards the end, the sole surviving) symbol of their cause.
