The heavy iron door slid open. The warm, amber light of the broker’s parlor spilled out, smelling of cigar smoke and ozone.

Behind that door was the broker, a man who dealt in chemical salvation and who currently held the lease on Kael’s sister’s life support. If Kael walked in there with four canisters instead of five, the broker wouldn’t kill him. He would simply unplug the machine. It was cleaner that way.
