"They are not fools. I am not so sure -- " Eichmil had said; and when the last force-ball, his last means of intergalactic communication, went dead, the First of Boskone became very unsure indeed. The Patrol undoubtedly had something new -- he himself had had glimpses of it -- but what was it?
That Jalte's base was gone was obvious. That Boskone's hold upon the Tellurian Galaxy was gone, followed as a corollary. That the Patrol was or would soon be wiping out Boskone's regional and planetary units was a logical inference. Star A Star, that accursed director of Lensmen, had -- must have -- succeeded in stealing Jalte's records, to be willing to destroy out of hand the base which had housed them.
