“I’m Doug Ramsey, but you can call me Cypher.”
“What do you do?”
“I can translate any language, human or alien.”
“That’s not particularly useful in battle, but we might be able to find a use for you. You’re hired. Next!”

“My name is Layla Miller, and Jamie is my crush.” Layla explained that she could heal wounds up to the point of raising the dead, but the raised dead would not have souls. She could also exorcise demons.
“I think we could be good friends,” Torunn said. “You’re hired.”

Meet Liz’s bro next chapter!
