The relay was working.
It wasn't perfectly but it was working.
We had divided the plain into four sectors with the foundation platform at the center. The grey-geared team — whose leader I had started thinking of as Commander because that was the only word that fit — ran the northeast. Staff led a mid-weight block team through the north-central sector. Plate anchored the western section with four climbers who had attached to him mostly out of proximity to his reputation, which had spread across the plain in gesture and expression after the harpy catch. The central mass had resolved itself into two functional sub-groups: one working the south section under Rapier's loose direction, and one attempting the tertiary alcove under the two suspicious climbers I still didn't trust.
