"...grey eyes on the smouldering city below.

The boy studied the soldier. He already knew the complete regimental accoutrements of the Imperial army, and the man at his side was a commander in the Third - one of the Emperor's own, an elite. On his dark grey shoulder-cloak was a silver brooch: a bridge of stone, lit by ruby flames. A Bridgeburner."

"His face was scarred, and something that might have been a burn marred his jaw and left cheek. For all that, he looked young for a commander."

(GotM, US HC p.26, UK mmpb p. 5)

"Set deep in a lined, exhausted face, his dark grey eyes searched hers dispassionately...

The sergeants lips grew taut beneath his grizzled, wiry beard."
