Three minutes after that she had paid for the Dawn City reservation as Birna Drellgannoth and deposited her thumbprints with the ticket office. Counting what was left, she found it came to just under a hundred and thirty-eight. Definitely no dinner tonight! She needed a suitcase and a change of clothing. And then she'd just better go sit in that hotel room.
So ... she'd get off the school grounds, take a tube strip into downtown Ceyce, step into a ComWeb booth, and call Grand Commerce transportation for information on the earliest subspace runs to Manon. She'd reserve a berth on the first fast boat out. In the name of let's see in the name of Birna Drellgannoth, who had been a friend of hers when they were around the age of ten.
The lady switched off, apparently a trifle distressed at not having discovered anything Birna Drellgannoth's personal stewardess might do for Birna right now. Trigger went curiously over to the cabinet. It opened at her touch and she sat down before it, glancing over its panels.

In Ceyce a short two hours after she'd felled Mihul, Trigger called the interstellar spaceport and learned that the Dawn City was open to passengers and their guests. Birna Drellgannoth picked up her tickets and went on board, mingling unostentatiously with a group in a mood of festive leave-taking.
Rather severely, it seemed. "Did you mean," the green one asked carefully, "that you are not a retainer?" Trigger nodded. "I'm from Maccadon," she explained. "The name is Birna Drellgannoth." "Maccadon," the pink one repeated. "You are a commoner then, young Birna?" "Of course she is!" The green one looked offended. "Maccadon!"
