Summary
Act I of III complete
In the labyrinth of Cardassian power, survival is not enough.
Julian Bashir fled the Federation under the shadow of treason, only to land in the hands of the Obsidian Order. Under the watchful eye of Enabran Tain and his most loyal operative, Elim Garak, Julian must prove his worth—or be discarded.
But loyalty is a weapon as much as a virtue, and Garak is as much interrogator as savior. Cardassia demands obedience, and Julian—brilliant, fragile, burning with defiance—was never meant to last.
But loyalty on Cardassia is a weapon as much as a virtue, and Garak is as much interrogator as savior. As Julian fights to retain his humanity, the truths he uncovers may cost him the very thing he’s struggling to keep.
In the labyrinth of Cardassian intrigue, survival is only the beginning. To endure, Julian must decide: is he willing to become the monster they expect—or something far worse?

Summary
It should have been easy enough to shrug off, once they awoke on the changelings' planet and knew none of the preceding events had taken place, but the thing about it was,
the thing was, thought Julian,
the thing:
Julian braced himself against the wall, shaking. The thing was: he saw Garak die.
