"And," said Morey, his own eyes dreamily bright now, "what would happen if it did? If it fell all the way?" "I cannot follow your thoughts, Earthmen, beyond a glimpse of an explosion. And it seems it is Thett that is exploding, and that Thett is exploding itself. Can you explain?" asked Stel Felso Theu.
Rubble work walls, for they needed little shelter here, and the people were but savages. "Shall we land?" asked Arcot, his voice a bit unsteady with suppressed excitement. "Of course!" replied Morey without turning from his station at the window.
Adjusting the controls on the suits, the four men lifted into the tenuous air and headed toward the city, moving easily about ten feet above the frozen wastes of the snow field. "The thing I don't understand," Morey said as they shot toward the city, "is why this planet is here at all. The intense radiation from the sun when it went supernova should have vaporized it!"
When Dr. Ridgely says Wade's got those slipped cogs replaced offer him a job in your lab staff. "I'm a bit older than you are; you've grown up in a world where the psychomedical techniques really work. When I was growing up, psychomedical techniques were strictly rule of thumb and the doctors were all thumbs." Mr. Morey sighed. Then, "In this matter, I think your judgment is better than mine."
But at last it was time for the effects of the mild drug to wear off, and for Wade and Fuller to awaken from their sleep. "Morey I've an idea!" There was an expression of perfect innocence on Arcot's face but a twinkle of humor in his eyes. "I wonder if it might not be interesting to observe the reactions of a man waking suddenly from sleep to find himself alone in space?"
During a brief lull in the conversation, Morey commented rather sarcastically: "I wonder if Arcot will now kindly explain his famous invisible light, or the lost star?" He was a bit nettled by his own failure to remember that a star could go black. "I can't see what connection this has with their sudden attack.
"Yes, but if you shout in my ear like that again, you'll have to write things out for me for ever after." He was just as excited as Morey, nevertheless. The great mass of the city was shaped like a titanic cone that stood half mile high and was fully a mile and a half in radius.
From the day when I rescued Morey from the hands of Hall, his whole manner changed towards me, and he treated me with great kindness, frequently bringing me a cup of tea or coffee, and something good to eat. He also promised to present the circumstances of the Hall affair to the Governor, and to urge my pardon, but I do not think he ever did so, at least I heard nothing of it.
"Fuller has the right idea," said Morey, looking at Fuller with a judicious eye. "I think I'll follow his example." "Which makes three in favor and one on the way," said Arcot, as he came out of the ship and sank down on the soft sand of the beach. They lay around for a while after lunch, and then decided to swim in the cool waters of the lake.
The trial lasted twelve days, and very little was elicited about the conspiracy, if indeed there was one. Suddenly Pepin, whose terror had been abject, rallied his courage, refused to implicate Morey or to make revelations, and kept his resolution to the last. One of the five prisoners was acquitted, one was condemned to a brief imprisonment, and Morey, Pepin, and Fieschi were sent to the block.
