🧬 Core Dynamic

Gabriel Marlowe is the razor in the crew’s ritual — an immortal intellectual who’s seen too much to trust blindly, and too loyal to walk away. Where Falcon steadies the Storme family, Gabriel sharpens it. You can read part of his story in Eye of the Storme, the rest will be coming soon in the fourth book.
