...ou step ACROSS is there a world of worlds, a web, and you a spider upon it. Are you searching for that one thread you need? Is that thread named victory? You’re not one of THEM[long dead, alive again, their bodies grafted to powers they and I do not understand] and not one of IT[the f...

... long since vanished, and for those who bend a knee to the Spider in the remote corner of the Reef known as the Tangled Shore, they have lost the privilege of such sentimentality. A salvage crew was dispatched the week after a small scouting party from the Spider's personal fiefdom ...
...f you're not halfway there already. Drifter and the Spider have worked together on occasion. But it can't benefit Spider to let the Drifter expand his influence in the system. So why help him? I wonder if the Shadows of Yor are involved—maybe pressure on the Reef at Drifter's benefit? L...
...Spider's warehouses, he gripped the neck of a warehouse worker. So tell me something. When the rule 'no stealing' was explained to you, which part did you not understand? The worker struggled against Spider's grip. I—I didn't steal the candy! You know what's worse than stealing fro...
...f the life-giving essence; more than twice her own share. The Spider had given them just two tanks—partly as a cost-saving measure, and partly as an incentive to get the job done quickly. Later that night, a crewmate woke Savek from her deep slumber. You're late. Northwestern posting. Tw...
... of the sort. This implication, this realization—perhaps this was novel to the Spider as well. If that were true, this piece of living Hive technology would be worth more than Ether. Perhaps… Kosis gestured to the now towering length of living metal. Take it apart....
...Kosis had marked the Hive salvage specifically for the Spider's attention. It wouldn't be shipped off to marketplaces and storehouses like the remains of the Ketch—finds like this were of special interest to him. Kosis considered sending a missive ahead of the shipment but thought b...
...Spider has ever made. And that, he reminds himself, is saying a lot. In exchange for facilitating the deaths of his enemies, Spider receives… death for some other enemies. It's almost embarrassing. He would have provided the Barons' location for free, if they had pressed him on it...
... share. Or reduce the size of her crew. Kosis knew what Spider would choose. She began cycling through crew members, deciding which one to cull, when the sudden silence of the moment struck her. No Arc cutters sizzled. No grunts of effort or idle chatter. No clangs of loaded salvage. ...

...ic beat as they greeted a new arrival in the Spider's lair. He entered with hesitance. Gold eyes flitted around the room like a nervous animal. His clothes were those of a traitor. The white shawl of a funerary covering draped across shoulders that hunched downward as if a heavy ...
... Spider sat hunched to one side of his throne, head in hand, when Crow returned from the field. Baron, Crow addressed his ostensible benefactor. The Spider looked up and wordlessly beckoned the Lightbearer over. Upon reaching the throne, Crow took a knee. What was it we talked ab...
...Spider's subterranean shipping depot. He bobbed uncertainly through tight towers of stacked crates, beneath hanging coils of gurgling tubing, over piles of crushed Phaseglass, and through a hissing vent of rich lavender smoke that obscured what looked like a quantum opal. (But as ...
... Spider's implements. I'm so sorry. Crow's voice was barely a whisper. For all his strength as a Lightbearer, he looked small seated on the floor in his den, illuminated by the pale glow of a solitary lamp. Crow cradled Glint in his cupped hands. The ghost's monocular eye stared ...
... The carrier is annihilated. Tyv shatters, her body skids across the grass in ruin. Deafening shock breaks the night. In it, one lone call: SPIDER TANK!...
...so much has happened, but I get only drips of information. Spider is a name I hear over and over, but who is he? A common criminal? A deity? A friend? Some accounts paint him as all three. What is it about this Spider fellow that compels these Guardians so? And do I have it right t...
...he Fallen at her side murmurs. Master Ives murdered, Variks missing. Spider hires away my friends. Well, I stay to guard Master Ives's work. You come in, make yourself into a home. I will bring nitrogen tea and records. Thank you. Lavinia wants to laugh, or maybe cry, at the malapropism. ...
...The Trickster. The liar. Silver-tongued Araskes, the Wit. She who bartered with the Spider and nearly cost him his life. She who swindled a dozen bounty hunters that she alone may profit. So many tales of Araskes' sleight of hand and tongue and mind. The enemy who has won battles ...

...ls cringed from battle as they peeled off wall panels, desperate for salvage to please their Captains. Armored Sjur Eido met the Fallen Baron in zero-gravity combat above his spider tank and shot him dead, one adamant shaft through plate and throat. Ether hissed into vacuum. Sjur ...
Spider's lair. Petra in her element, light-footed, light of thought. She keeps herself open to the place. Heat of packed bodies and machinery, bite of Ether in the air. Money and the promise of money and the things money can make people do. Knives. Pistols. Danger like static charge....

Search Tips
In the "specific" search, you can type a phrase and enclose it in inverted commas so that the term you are looking for is specifically located. In this same method, you can also search for +Leviathan +Calus, and you will find all the records that have both words. You can also search for +Leviathan -Calus, and you will find all the records that have the word Leviathan but that do not have the word Calus. In this type, the content is not sorted by relevance, it returns everything that fits your search.
In the search type "generalized", the order in which the content is displayed is relevant according to what you search for. This method ignores words with less than 4 letters because they are very common; however, when searching for a term, the system will return an order that is most relevant to what was searched until the least relevant.
Remembering that you can share the search link with other friends for both methods so they can have the same vision that you are having. To do this, use the share buttons or copy the URL of the page after searching.
