Exceptions existed in the case of Sal Karone and others of his age who were separated from their families and had not yet begun their own. As they returned to the car Venor took their hands. He pressed Cameron's warmly and looked into his eyes with deep sincerity. "You have made us glad by your presence," he said.
"That is why I led you to the point where the admission would be forced from them. The problem you came to solve is now answered, is it not? Is there anything to prevent you returning to Earth and writing a successful paper on the mystery of the Markovians?" "You know very well there is," said Cameron with the sudden sense that Venor was laughing gently at him.
"You didn't deliberately fall into a trap where you allowed yourselves to be killed and tortured by them?" exclaimed Cameron. Venor smiled. "The Markovians thought we did. We could hardly do that, of course. Our numbers were so small compared with theirs that we wouldn't have lasted very long. And, obviously, it would have been plain stupid.
The Markovians were generous indeed in not referring to the Ids as slaves. There was little else they could ever be called. The Chief was addressed as Venor by Sal Karone, who introduced them. "It is kind of you to include our village in your visit to the Nucleus," said Venor. "There are many more spectacular things to see."
"You can't submerge your entire racial identity as you have done. That is not what the saying meant." "To us it does," said Venor solemnly. "We would master the Universe and therefore we must serve it. That is the core of the law of the Idealists." Cameron let his gaze scan through the window to the small clearing in the thick forest, to the circle of wooden houses.
"Were there things you had yet to say to him?" he asked. "No there were things Venor wanted to tell us. You heard him. He wanted us to come back. It is completely impossible for us to see him again before we go?" Sal Karone straightened and set the utensils on the table. "No, it is not impossible. I have been instructed to bring you back to the village if it should be your request."
Most of the Markovian science has been taken from other cultures, but now their history boasts of heroes and discoverers who never lived and who were responsible for all the great science they enjoy." "But nothing stable can be built upon such an unhealthy foundation of self-deception!" Cameron protested. "It is not unhealthy not at the present moment," said Venor.
