Silver Elite: Chapter 22

For tonight’s city drills, a Command craft flies us to the Point, landing on a paved lot with a backdrop of sprawling warehouses, small factories, and low-rise buildings. There’s a heavy, oily scent to the air, a mixture of exhaust fumes and a burnt odor that makes me wonder what they’re doing in those buildings. While my fellows gather around awaiting instructions, my gaze is busy searching for an escape. If the network wasn’t ignoring me, they could have taken advantage of this. Attempted a rescue while I was off base.

Remember when Wren briefly realized she was in a position to be an asset to the Uprising? Yeah, she's already forgotten and back on her "why won't anyone risk their lives to rescue me from this problem I created myself" bullshit.
