Death has come to Bule. Jack and Corva do their best to defend themselves (and each other), but Jack's history could threaten the fragile trust that they've started to make between each other. At the same time, Corva learns more of her own story and it's a lot more than she's bargained for.
It's been quiet in Bule for a bit. Jack and Corva have settled into a routine of working the bar in the evenings and then training until early in the morning. There's still tension between them and trust is tough to come by. Thanks to Zeke, Corva starts to a glimpse of who she really is, but it may be too late.
This is the first episode of seven in the Fulcrum: Season One series. Jack loves his life. Yeah, he lives at the edge of a warzone between armies of monstrosities. You call it dangerous. Jack calls it Tuesday. Folks in town aren’t too keen on a fourteen-year-old running the only bar, but Jack has it under control. Maybe his customers trash the place more than he would like, but sometimes cybernetically enhanced mercenaries need to blow off some steam. With the help of Zeke—friend, mentor, monkey—Jack serves drinks to anyone who comes through his door. And for the right price, he might even sell you something with a bit more kick … something magical. When Corva gets knocked through th...
Inspired by the work of the renowned fisheries scientist Daniel Pauly, this book provides a detailed overview of ecosystem-based management of fisheries. It explores the complex and interdisciplinary nature of the subject by bringing together contributions from some of the world's leading fisheries scientists, managers and conservationists. Combining both research reviews and opinion pieces, and reflecting the breadth of Pauly's influence within the field, the book illustrates the range of issues associated with the implementation of the ecosystem approach and the challenge of long-term sustainability. Topics covered include global biodiversity, the impact of human actions on marine life, the implications for economic and social systems and the role of science in communicating and shaping ocean policy to preserve resources for the future. This book provides a complete and essential overview for advanced researchers and those just entering the field.
Everything is messed up. Jack's hurt. Zeke's hurt. And Corva is still trying to wrap her mind around everything she's found out in such a short period of time. They need to get help and Jack knows exactly where to take them. It's not going to be easy, though. There's more trouble coming to the little town of Bule.
It's time to fight. The only way that Jack and Corva are going to be able to survive this is if they embrace their pasts. However, that might mean forfeiting their futures.
Jack works his way through rebuilding his bar while trying to to help Corva heal. In the meantime, Corva is trying to figure out her place and how Zeke fits in with her strange ability to fight. Some of that has to go on pause, though, because a raid is coming to Bule.
Bule is a town under siege. Death controls the sky. The Horde swarm the ground. Jack and Corva are caught in the middle of it. The sensible move is to run. They should turn their backs and save themselves. However, what is sensible isn't always what's right... or possible.
