A large part of the firmament was blotted out by the blindingly bright / half-disk of Weald, as it shone in the sunshine. It had icecaps at its / poles, and there were seas, and the mottled look of land which had / that carefully maintained balance of woodland and cultivated areas / which was so effective in climate control. The Med Ship floated free, / and Calhoun fretfully monitored all the beacon frequencies known to / man.
There was relative silence inside the ship. Maril watched Calhoun in a / sort of despairing indecision. The four young blueskins still slept, / still bound hand and foot upon the control room floor. Murgatroyd / regarded them, and Maril, and Calhoun in turn, and his small and furry / forehead wrinkled helplessly.
