Biography
The island operation
Sendira leaves most converted followers on the surface as a delaying force while taking Fila, Ramona and two gold-rank servitors beneath the fallen Builder city. She needs the women’s scouting and ritual abilities to move through the collapsed complex and successfully subdues two clockwork kings with a prepared control device. Her methods make lower operatives such as Rhett believe they are disposable decoys, but Melody values Sendira’s clarity of purpose and reliability. After rival cell leaders challenge Melody, Sendira remains at her side and later joins the lean inner group trying to preserve the Order’s mission. (Chapters 522–546)
Skills and relationships
Sendira is a silver-rank commander who plans around specialist powers, controlled constructs and sacrificial distractions. Her strength is operational focus, although that same willingness to spend subordinates erodes trust among the ordinary Order members. (Chapters 526–531, 546)
