About this listen
In the early morning darkness on the barren and remote planet of the Ninth House, Gideon awaits the shuttle that will help her finally escape from her life as an indentured servant.
Claire Beans (she/they) and Han Koehle (any pronouns) discuss the ambiguity around Gideon's status, the economy of Drearburh, and what's happening with the Ninth's population. Claire puts porridge in a sandwich bag. Han has questions about space Alcatraz. Anything is necromancy if you try hard and believe in yourself?
Content Warning: brief mentions of death, torture, slavery, racism, war crimes, genocide
