Plot summary
The short story narrates the final battle in the Deleportas Trial of Bloodright on Hoard in 3049, won by Clan Nova Cat Star Captain Calvin Deleportas in his personal OmniMech Pakhet.
Canonicity
Although MechWarrior Online as such does not fall under the current criteria for Canon, the fiction going with the games' "Hero 'Mechs"—written largely by Randall Bills who at the time was also the incumbent BattleTech Line Developer at Catalyst Game Labs—was expressly declared fully canonical. At the same time, the Hero 'Mechs themselves and the configurations offered by MechWarrior Online were still not considered canon beyond what was expressly put down in the fiction pieces.
