Aum Shere - for @onlystarisee
There were very few career options left for a former military man who had been summarily disgraced and forced to leave the service. Harry Wells refused to play politics and when he saw both waste and abuse, he dealt with it. The problem was the lieutenant he'd dealt with had friends in far higher places. Couple that with his rather abrasive personality, and it wasn't long before he was left in Alexandria Egypt with very little means.
But in the last ten years he'd made a name for himself. Harry knows the sands and the desert. He speaks Arabic and Berber fluently and has kept more than a few idiot academics from dying on their digs.
Not a bad way to live, really.
The library is used to seeing the lanky, dusty stranger occasionally stalking the corridors and today was no exception. He has a new contract and a new expedition to lead.
If he can find Dr. Morgan, that is.
