An idle question: is there anyone on the train who receives visions of our missions and comes from a world with advanced technology?

I am curious whether that perspective would lend itself to a better idea of what we will be facing. I could see computers, row upon row of them... but if that vision had more information to give, I cannot interpret it.

[A pause, then continuing]

One other matter: I saw a memory of a garden gone for years, just at the end. Not a place someone from another world would know. On our last mission, many of us found ourselves trapped in image and memory.

...I think something of the sort might happen again.

"I'd be inclined to trust your premonitions, Zelda. If you have a bad feeling about this becoming more common, then maybe there's a good reason for your feeling.

I am grateful for your faith, but to be honest this is a point on which I would rather be wrong.

[ He can't see her rueful smile but suspects there is one on her face, by the tone of her voice. He smiles back, and his is a friendly smile. ]

I'd prefer this kind of thing not keep occurring, too. But I guess we won't know for sure until we land on the mission planet.

[wisdominshadows]

True. Nothing to do now but wait.

[At least she's got practice at that.]

I think I shall go make myself some tea.
