Hexarchate Stories (3) (Machineries of Empire)
The Vela
Strife and Peace
Both hinge on conflict between duty and personal loyalty, but this is a quiet 19th-century domestic romance instead of brutal military space opera.
The little minister
Neither is a war story, but both hinge on duty clashing with personal loyalty; this one is far gentler, rural, and romance-driven.
A Damsel in Distress
Shares an obsession with rigid hierarchies and inherited rank, played for farce here instead of military horror, with a light HEA.
