In Travis education warred with instinct, just as the picture Redax had planted in his mind had warred with his awaking to this alien landscape. Yet now he believed he must be guided by what he felt.

"For rescuers who never came," Jil-Lee said softly. "And there is a chance they could be revived even now?" Travis shivered. "Not one I would want to take." "No," Buck's tone was somber, "that I agree to, younger brother. These are not men as we know them, and I do not think they would be good dalaanbiyat'i allies. They had go'ndi in plenty, these star men, but it is not the power of the People.
"There is no return to home for us," Buck stated flatly. "Why do you say that? There could be a rescue ship later " The other raised his eyes again to Travis.
