One might think that the party scene took a hit when the Hydes invasion started, but anyone who thought that did not know my Cowboys well enough. We were tasked with winning the hearts and minds of the local population, and Dawn DeMarco was a maestro at winning hearts and minds. And of course there were always people who had sworn everlasting loyalty to the liberation governments who didn’t actually mean it. Dawn and her misfits had their choice of people to search for and uncover and catch in the act. So the official balls and informal parties continued. Hearts and minds were won. Bad Actors were sent to prison, or paid massive amounts of money to stay free. And planet by planet, we advanced into the Hyades one party at a time. Never thought I would attend so many parties during a war. It was one of the more surreal parts of the whole campaign, but Dawn made it all fun.
