The News of Her Arrival Flowed Between the People of the Village Like Wine, Rich and Intoxicating or ⸢Wine⸣, is the excerpt of Bounty. They are a resident of Palisade who survived the initial invasion of the Bontive Valley by the Curtain and began to work with Millennium Break and the beginnings of the Cause soon after.
⸢Wine⸣ is quiet and emotionally taut. They have dark skin and keep their hair in a long braid down their back. They wear a fairly loose collared cream robe with wide skirts. They carry a sharp spade, which they have used as a weapon, and a thick book/cybertome.
They carry a symbol of Bounty in the form of a piece of liquid metal that shifts between vaguely floral shapes. However, their connection to their Divine has faded to nothing.

Bounty sought its final rest in Chimera's Lantern under the protection of the Chimeric Cadent.
In the Road to PALISADE, ⸢Wine⸣ works with Millennium Break members who they met off-world by traveling in the BigStar★ to build disparate resistance groups' infrastructure and connect them with the Strand network. Wine later appears in PALISADE in "Reach In / Reach Out Pt. 2" as Grey Pond's council representative, possibly having replaced Jesset in that role.
