"We ought to go outside again," suggested Bernardino, as Waldmeer's image disappeared; "my father might want us." Seeing no one in the king's apartment, they passed through it to the balcony. Half the sky was now covered with mingled fog and smoke, and the sun could be seen only now and then. A drizzling rain was falling a rain that brought down clots of ashes and soot.
Then the mirror began to glow, and the image of another man took Waldmeer's place. "It is the Mayor of Telmantio," whispered the princess, "a place near the western limits of Alpha." He held a like instrument to the one used by Waldmeer, and through it spoke: "Venus, one of the great stars, has been shaken from the firmament. It fell in the suburbs of Telmantio, and many lives were lost."
Waldmeer's reflection was becoming in-distinct, and sick at heart the American elbowed his way through the muttering crowd into the corridor. Here he met Branasko, and together they walked back to Thorndyke and the princess, who were mutely watching the signs in the east. Just then the sun slowly emerged from the cloud. "Look!" cried Bernardino in horror.
