Harbour "Ruse" Williams: The Enigma

A Warrior, An Heir, A Man Torn Between Duty and Truth

Imagine a galaxy where power is not simply inherited—it is earned, forged through trial, deception, and unrelenting force. This is the world of Harbour "Ruse" Williams, an Aknotian noble bred for war, deception, and survival. A man born into privilege, yet shackled by expectation. A warrior who wears many faces, but cannot escape his own reflection.

Let’s talk about Harbour. Not just the assassin. Not just the strategist. But the man who walks the razor’s edge between loyalty and self-discovery. The heir to an inheritance he cannot yet claim. The son of a father whose approval comes at an immense cost.

A Name That Commands Attention

Harbour "Ruse" Williams. A name that carries the weight of deception and strategy. But before he was Ruse, he was Oenomaus, Shield of the Guise. The very title drips with destiny—born to guard, to protect, to be the silent blade that ensures his people’s dominance across the stars.

He comes from a lineage of legends. Aknotians are feared for a reason. Their feline modifications gift them with precision, agility, and an instinct honed over generations to be both predator and protector. But Harbour? He’s something more. He is not just another warrior in the ranks. He is the future of an empire.

And yet… what does that mean when you’ve been trained to be nothing but a tool?

Born to Rule, Trained to Obey

Harbour was raised in a world of expectations, where survival meant more than just drawing breath—it meant proving, again and again, that he was worthy. His father, Col. Teddy Williams, is a force to be reckoned with. A man obsessed with vengeance, responsibilities, reputation, and maintaining the supremacy of their people. For Harbour, every mission is a test, every assignment a step toward claiming his rightful place as an heir to Aknos’ territories.

But birthright alone is not enough.

The Aknotian way demands proof. Proof of cunning. Proof of strength. Proof that he can outthink and outmaneuver the Elite who seek to remake humanity in their own image. Proof that he can survive the very world that seeks to consume him.

And so, he learns. He adapts. He infiltrates. He eliminates. Because to fail is to become obsolete.

A Mission That Changed Everything

Then came Yoland Sleek.

An Aknotian-Prime?

A designation that defies all logic. A woman who should not exist. An anomaly with no record, no trace in the Prime archives. And yet, there she was, standing in the path of his father’s mission of exacting revenge on an Aknotian traitor, complicating the very fabric of their carefully laid plans.

She was a threat.

Or…is she?

Harbour was sent to watch her. To ensure she posed no risk to his father’s ambitions so they could uncover who made her and why. But in doing so, he found himself entangled in something far more dangerous than any battlefield—a mirror.

One that casted a reflection of doubts.

Was everything he had been taught about the Helion, about the genetic hierarchy, about his own purpose… wrong?

Knowing his father’s mind, he was certain the assignment to the Helion commander was made to serve the purpose of developing an intimate knowledge of the people he was assigned to save. A people all the literature spoke poorly of. Literature that he believed to be true.

The Breaking of a Belief System

Harbour Williams was raised to know that the Elite were the enemy. The Helion were beneath him. But fighting alongside Sgt. Brinks “Watch” Dog changed something in him. It shattered the illusions he had been fed by the elitist system since childhood. It forced him to confront the uncomfortable truth: that the people he had been sent to protect and serve were just as strong, just as worthy, just as human as he was.

That they, too, deserved to exist.

For the first time in his life, Harbour began to question. And in the world he comes from, questioning is the first step toward rebellion. Will he come to understand the ways of his father. Could it be true that power must be taken, controlled, wielded with ruthless precision in order to stand firm for the goodness of mankind?

The Weight of a Choice

Loyalty or truth?

It is a decision that will define him. One that will determine not only his fate but the fate of those around him. His father sees the world in absolutes—power and weakness, victory and failure. But Harbour is beginning to understand that life exists in the grey spaces. In the moments between orders given and orders followed. In the split seconds when you decide whether to pull the trigger… or stay your hand.

And what about Yoland Sleek?

She was meant to be a mission. An objective. A problem to be solved.

But now?

Now she is something else entirely.

He must be ever watchful even as the truth of her making is revealed. If the time comes, if she proves to be a true threat… can he do what he was raised to do?

Or has he already changed too much to turn back?
