Bother and Blast!
Eloise and someone from Ginger's crew buys it. Pure speculation of course, but I suspect the original crew of Fearless survives this story arc.
The next story arc needs the SEM to owe Haven BIG! Haven needs a massive amount of help to improve its economy sufficiently to help the SEM stand up to any SL rump state. They need the degree of help Grayson got, but are so much larger the price tag will be staggering. The SEM needs something equally staggeringly compelling, like the sacrifice of Eloise to save either Elizabeth or Roger.
Wartime casualties direct my attention to Wanderman and Ginger with Paolo and Helen a distant third and fourth. Not originals, but around a while. I suspect RFC would have used a different phrase to mean original crew members. Of course, that ncludes Mike Henke too. She was introduced at a similar time. I'll put her at a much lower tier. She would be more useful enforcing her House' debt of honor in the next story arc.
