|
|
22 First attempt to open communications was greated with deafining silance.
|
|||
|
|
23 Could that vast object be a dirlect he wondered. Eather that or they cant
|
|||
|
|
24 transmit voice or maybe thair all incapacitated and no one can make it to the
|
|||
|
|
25 bridge?
|
|||
|
|
26 Just about that Elextia who had been roused by the commotion poked her head
|
|||
|
|
27 into the cocpit. "What's that?" she asked.
|
|||
|
|
28 "Eather were just in time or maybe were way too late"
|
|||
|
|
29 Easing herself into the other seat, all professional efficiancy, sleep
|
|||
|
|
30 suddenly forgotten she asked; "Have you identified a hold or some large,
|
|||
|
|
31 possibly preassurized interior space"
|
|||
|
|
32 With deft fingers Themnax called up immages of possibale candidates to
|
|||
|
|
33 on of her secondary monitors. "Are you thinking what I think you are?"
|
|||
|
|
34 #You bet you bippy# she replied inside my head, always the perfact tele-
|
|||
|
|
35 path.
|
|||
|
|
36 Aloud she spoke; "Stand by for etherial flip. On my count. one, two, now!"
|
|||
|
|
37 The reality storm became a harmless pattern of blue lines one another of
|
|||
|
|
38 the ubiquotios monitor screens as we moved toward the point of interstructural
|
|||
|
|
39 interpenitration.
|
|||
|
|
40 "Wait and please hold"#I think i sense something - stll ...#
|
|||
|
|
41 "YES! Got it" Elxtia said turning toward him. "There are at least two
|
|||
|
|
42 possibly more active telepaths on board. I also sense several mysteries and a
|
|||
|
|
43 great straingeness. The are indeed here as a resault of the 'storm' though
|
|||
|
|
44 there are several other factors and they might be able to break free without
|
|||
|
|
45 our assistance. Nothing wrong with improving the odds for them though. I
|
|||
|
|
46 think the only reason they didnt voice acnowledge your call was that no one
|
|||
|
|
47 was on the bridge at the time. Two walked in immediatly afterword and are
|
|||
|
|
48 there now. I've also found a good spot for our internal docking. If you turn
|
|||
|
|
49 over your panel to mine I believe I can guide us in."
|
|||
|
|
50 Without further ado Themnax did just that. They glided smoothly through
|
|||
|
|
51 outer and inner hull and were fully inside and clear of all surfaces before
|
|||
|
|
52 he reached out and flipped the toggle which rematerialized them.
|
|||
|
|
53 Elxtia docked with a gravity activated surface without further aid or
|
|||
|
|
54 interferance from Themnax.
|
|||
|
|
55 Unfortunately this portion of the ship doesnt appear to be preassurized at
|
|||
|
|
56 the moment" was her comment as the drives spun down. "Time to try another comm

57 only be sure to use maximum attenuation. At this non-range it'd be easy to
|
|||
|
|

63 Tariya walked over to the console in front of James. She reached for the keyboard. "Tell me how this thing
|
|||
|
|
64 works."
|
|||
|
|
65 James grabbed her wrists gently but firmly and moved them away from the sensitive controls. "No thank you. I really
|
|||
|
|
66 don't feel like touring the Andromeda galaxy today." He ignored her smouldering glare as he adjusted the navicomp.
|
|||
|
|
67 "Just tell me where. I'll pilot."
|
|||
|
|
68 "We can't go after the adventurers directly." she said. "First we have to find them."
|
|||
|
|
69 "You said you knew where they were."
|
|||
|
|
70 "I said I knew how to find them. That's the next best thing."
|
|||
|
|
71 Oh, swell. A detour. James silently groaned. Time's awastin'... "Where do we have to go to find out where we have
|
|||
|
|
72 to go to find them?" Did he actually say that?
|
|||
|
|
73 "It's a very powerful mystic focal point called the Crystal Palace." She looked at him like he was supposed to
|
|||
|
|
74 recognise the name.
|
|||
|
|
75 He said, very patiently, "That tells me nothing. Do you have some coordinates I can type in to the computer."
|
|||
|
|
76 "You don't need coordinates. Anybody who knows magic knows where the Crystal Palace is. It's basic
|
|||
|
|
77 knowledge."
|
|||
|
|
78 "Well, maybe it's basic to you, sweetheart, but it sure ain't..." His voice faded in amazement as he glanced at the
|
|||
|
|
79 computer screen. The voice recognition circuits must have been on because the screen read:
|
|||
|
|
80 CRYSTAL PALACE LOCATED 90 DEGREES LATITUDE NORTH
|
|||
|
|
81 PLANET AMPHYRIAN
|
|||
|
|
82 SYSTEM RIGEL
|
|||
|
|
83 COORDINATES:
|
|||
|
|
84 and it read off a long list of numbers. Beneath this information flashed a single word: IGNORAMOUS. James thought he
|
|||
|
|
85 heard something like a snicker behind him but when he turned around Tariya was looking elsewhere. "Swell." he sighed.
|
|||
|
|
86 "Can't even get respect from my own computer."
|
|||
|
|
87 He typed in the numbers (with some modifications) and hit the button labeled COMMIT. Outside, the cylinder glowed
|
|||
|
|
88 and suddenly dissappeared with a flash and a BANG of imploding air.
|
|||
|
|
89 James sat back in his pilot's chair and said, "Well, we're on our way."

|

|
|
98 Emu didn't understand the ill feeling that he had received from the psi
|
|||
|
|
99 shield set up by Tayree. What Cragmore had said didn't sound right, Emu
|
|||
|
|
100 could tell that much, but his minimal psi training couldn't tell him what
|
|||
|
|
101 was wrong. The ill feeling could not have come from a privacy shield. There
|
|||
|
|
102 was something more to it...
|
|||
|
|
103 He shrugged it off. At the moment, it was much more important to get
|
|||
|
|
104 the Pell-Mell out of 'here' (where ever that may be) and to a more recogni-
|
|||
|
|
105 zable space and time.
|
|||
|
|
106 As he and Trainor returned to the control room, with Cragmore lagging
|
|||
|
|
107 behind, they heard the external comm speaker crackling "... pell-mell; this
|
|||
|
|
108 is a fly in your gut. request permission to have come aboard and could we
|
|||
|
|
109 have some atmosphere down here?"
|
|||
|
|
110 Trainor and Emu looked questioning at each other, each hoping the other
|
|||
|
|
111 had understood the speaker. Getting no help that way, Trainor checked the
|
|||
|
|
112 immediate external sensors. Getting nothing, he tried the internals. Down
|
|||
|
|
113 in the lowermost hold, primarily used for methane product storage, but
|
|||
|
|
114 currently empty, was a small dot, not quite deciferable, but definitely
|
|||
|
|
115 expending a large amount of energy.
|
|||
|
|
116 Trainor had an intruder!
|
|||
|
|
117 "Intruder, please identify yourself immediately! I repeat, identify
|
|||
|
|
118 yourself immediately!" Emu watched as Trainor awaited the reply.

133 The piper lagged behind as the group of adventurers moved, first to an
|
|||
|
|
134 obscure room at the end of a hall, then back towards the control room.
|
|||
|
|
135 As the others walked on, chattering about what could be going on, the piper
|
|||
|
|
136 stopped to rest, leaning against one of the less ornate decorative panels
|
|||
|
|
137 lining the hallway. Feeling nauseated by the bone-deep pain of his wounded
|
|||
|
|
138 arm, the piper rested his head against the bas-relief carving never noticing
|
|||
|
|
139 the rather intimate proximity it put him to a dryad engaged in what some
|
|||
|
|
140 cultures would prudishly term "deviant conduct." Even the built-in
|
|||
|
|
141 scourges of early childhood training could not raise the color in his face
|
|||
|
|
142 as he glance down the hallway with an unseeing eye. The footsteps and
|
|||
|
|
143 conversation of the others died away from his ears as he returned to the
|
|||
|
|
144 pale green door in the passageway and sat next to it. By now his thoughts
|
|||
|
|
145 were occupied with a small figure wrapped in flowing grey robes, facing
|
|||
|
|
146 the unknown with a gallant smile. Sw
|
|||
|
|
147 (oops) Squirming to find a more comfortable spot on the floor, he closed
|
|||
|
|
148 his eyes to rest for a brief moment.

|
|
151 The wounded woman relaxed under lady Tayree's soft touch. Relaxing, she
|
|||
|
|
152 loosed her grip on the grey cloak that was wrapped around her, soft as
|
|||
|
|
153 thistledown except for the heavy dampness that was drying blood. As her
|
|||
|
|
154 eyes closed, the weight of the blood-soaked cloth pulled the cloak down
|
|||
|
|
155 across her left shoulder baring part of her blood-stained torso. Lady
|
|||
|
|
156 Tayree's eyes were drawn to the crudly sutured wound that reached from
|
|||
|
|
157 near the center of her chest nearly a third of the way across her left breast.
|
|||
|
|
158 Only the soft sound of her breathing filled the air.

163 "...identify yourself immediately!" Shutting off the intercom, Trainor
|
|||
|
|
164 turned to Emu. "Remember what I said about what was going to happen next?
|
|||
|
|
165 I think next has happened."
|
|||
|
|
166 "I would tend to agree with you. Whatever this thing is, it managed to
|
|||
|
|
167 get on board without triggering any of the on-board alarm systems. We would
|
|||
|
|
168 have heard the claxon, even with all the screaming going on. Things are
|
|||
|
|
169 getting curiouser and curiouser."
|
|||
|
|
170 "What is curiouser and curiouser?" Bard stepped in to the control room.
|
|||
|
|
171 "Where have you been Bard? You took off before us." Trainor had a habit
|
|||
|
|
172 of answering questions with more questions.
|
|||
|
|
173 "Oh, even in space nature calls. The ship's head is fabulous. I
|
|||
|
|
174 especially like the Pygmalion/Galatea mural."
|
|||
|
|
175 "Glad you are impressed" Trainor beamed.
|
|||
|
|
176 "Ok, enough of the appreciation society. We have to figure out what
|
|||
|
|
177 this ship or whatever is." Emu said with a snort.
|
|||
|
|
178 "What ship?" Bard continued.
|
|||
|
|
179 "Take a look, Bard. It somehow materialized in our methane hold. The hold
|
|||
|
|
180 isn't pressurized for this trip, it's completely sealed. But somehow, someway,
|
|||
|
|
181 something got down there. And that something called to us." Trainor fingered
|
|||
|
|
182 the communications console, and repeated his challenge.
|
|||
|
|
183 As soon has he finished, a deafening squeal filled the control room. It
|
|||
|
|
184 was quickly followed by what sounded like hastily formed apologies. Indeed,
|
|||
|
|
185 whatever or wever was in the small craft was speaking again. Trainor, Emu,
|
|||
|
|
186 Bard, and Cragmore, who just entered the control room after a small detour
|
|||
|
|
187 himself, hung close to the console, all ears attuned to the words coming

188 from deep within the Pell-mell.

217 Themnax: Where is Dreamtoucher? He's ONE character of your making that I

|
|
218 can comfortably interact with. Strange figures in cloaks with strange names
|
|||
|
|
219 and devices make me a tad nervous. Dreamtoucher, like myself, however, is
|
|||
|
|
220 a creature "from nature" and can understand things in a way not many
|
|||
|
|
221 people can.. For instance, how many people do you know who can carry on
|

|
|
222 an evening conversation about the woodland, without falling asleep. As
|

|

223 sad a fact as it is, it is true. So where is the "Elven Mystic" as you so
|
|||
|
|
224 long ago dubbed him. Mayhap he might soon pop up at the Inn? And be sure
|
|||
|
|
225 to bring along Snowrunner....er...that is..if she isn't all that hungry.

|

|

278 Darkness surrounds me, the stink of death fills the air
|
|||
|
|
279 Reaching out, I grasp for support. A friendly hand touches mine.
|
|||
|
|
280 I am lifted from the dark waters, I am wraped in a warm blanket,
|
|||
|
|
281 but it is tight, it constricts. I feel a tightness in my chest,
|
|||
|
|
282 I hear a splash, and suddenly I am pulled back into the water.
|
|||
|
|
283 A great weight pulls me down, and as water fills my lungs
|
|||
|
|
284 with my dying breath, the sound of laughter echos in my ears.

|

|
|
288 About ten minutes later, my intercom buzzed for attention.
|
|||
|
|
289 I cursed several unique curses, got up from the workbench upon which my
|
|||
|
|
290 Passkey was in several pieces, and answered it. "Rebalsa here."
|
|||
|
|
291 "Your box was sent like you wanted, Bert." It was Stan Wendill, chief
|
|||
|
|
292 transmitter engineer. "The energy source disappeared afterwards."
|
|||
|
|
293 "So?" I said. "You've got the coordinates, haven't you?"
|
|||
|
|
294 "Yes, that's not the problem."
|
|||
|
|
295 "What exactly IS the problem?"
|
|||
|
|
296 "The energy intake of the 'box dropped to fifteen g.v. during transfer, so
|
|||
|
|
297 we sent a drone to see what was on the other end."
|
|||
|
|
298 I recovered from the temporary shock. Normal 'box energy use was about twenty
|
|||
|
|
299 times that- 300 gv. "What did you find? A blue phone booth?"
|
|||
|
|
300 Stan sounded puzzled. "No, why did you ask that? Never mind. There wasn't
|
|||
|
|
301 anything there, Bert. Empty space. No sign of dimensional disturbance,
|
|||
|
|
302 either. Would you care to explain what happened to that box we sent?"
|
|||
|
|
303 I thought of something. "Hold on."
|
|||
|
|
304 I quickly snatched up the stabilizer circuit I had purchased and scruntinized
|
|||
|
|
305 it closely. Bingo.
|
|||
|
|
306 "Stan? Er, I'm leaving for today. If you'd like an answer within oh, the
|
|||
|
|
307 next week, you'd better have dinner with me while I think this through.
|
|||
|
|
308 Bring your vesluc. We're going to need the number crunching available.
|
|||
|
|
309
|
|||
|
|
310 "All right. I DO want an answer. See you in ten."
|
|||
|
|
311 I broke contact, and stared at the little grey chip that shouldn't be there.
|
|||
|
|
312 For no possible function could it serve, yet... it was tied in inexorably with
|
|||
|
|
313 the rest of the board. Quickly, I gathered a repair kit and the remainder of
|
|||
|
|
314 my Passkey, found parts enough to build a second passkey if the occasion
|
|||
|
|
315 warranted, and left my office.

430 !psu-cs!nelsons: Hail Hail, all Intel's here. You are not being forced to use INTEL's crazy coding are you? Microsoft
|
|||
|
|
431 may make some buggy software, but at least their ASSEM86 format is much easier to understand, and much easier to
|
|||
|
|
432 parse. The Intel assembler is much more strongly typed and it requires much more intelligence in the parser because
|
|||
|
|
433 some instructions can not be determined until the last of the opcodes are read in. Go with the Microsoft book, using
|
|||
|
|
434 the Intel iAPX8086/88 book as an additional source of information. Also, by using Microsoft's format, the assembler can
|
|||
|
|
435 be tested by running the same assembler source through a 'real' commercial assembler and comparing the binary output.
|
|||
|
|
436 About the only difference between the source code for your assembler and the M.S. assembler is segment and offset
|
|||
|
|
437 information because your assembler will probably be single segment and the segment words are not needed in the parser.
|
|||
|

438 I will try to collide sometime soon on campus. I need some more help with the 4107 and since you have had far more

443 "Here's the story, Stan," I began as we settled into my favorite booth at the
|
|||
|
|
444 local eatery. "I was stranded on some backwater planet by 'skippers yesterday.
|
|||
|
|
445 They smashed my Passkey, but it worked just enough to get me to the coordinates
|
|||
|
|
446 you transmitted the box towards. Somehow they sent me back, after I made a
|
|||
|
|
447 deal to get a spare stabilizer circuit. What's crazy is," I pulled out the
|
|||
|
|
448 circuit board from my vest pocket, "this thing is DS standard except for that
|
|||
|
|
449 little grey thing."
|
|||
|
|
450 I passed it to Stan and he studied it. "I think I should use the vesloc on it.
|
|||
|
|
451 Wake up, Harvey."
|
|||
|
|
452 The VEry Small LOgical Computer sprang to electronic life, and spoke. "Ready
|
|||
|
|
453 for operations, Stan."
|
|||
|
|
454 "Good. Lock scanners upon object held in my right hand, and report on data
|
|||
|
|
455 obtained. Summary first."
|
|||
|
|
456 The vesloc was silent for quite some time, so I ordered dinner for both of us.
|
|||
|
|
457 Synthetic stuff, mostly, but a hard-working dimensional supervisor can afford
|
|||
|
|
458 some real vegetables once in a while.
|
|||
|
|
459 "Object is a modified DS stabilizer circuit, model number-"
|
|||
|
|
460 "Stop!" Stan interrupted. "State nature of modifications."
|
|||
|
|
461 "Non-standard circuitry of unknown origin. Signs indicate manufacture b
|
|||
|
|
462 undiscovered human race. Manner of operation unknown. This unit's sensors
|
|||
|
|
463 may be in error. Scanners indicate that interior of circuit does not exist."
|
|||
|
|
464 "Empty space? Is that it?"
|
|||
|
|
465 "Negative. Soundings indicate that depth of device is of a negative value."
|
|||
|
|
466 Stan looked peeved. "That's it. NEXT time I have this thing serviced at
|
|||
|
|
467 a competent repair shop."
|
|||
|
|
468 "Don't bother. It's not broken."
|
|||
|
|
469 The implications dawned on Stan as our food arrived. We ate slowly, but hardly
|
|||
|
|
470 tasted the food as we thought of what this might mean.
|
|||
|
|
471 "Dimensional control of this magnitude...such accuracy! Great Space!" Stan
|
|||
|
|
472 exclaimed. "What COULDN'T we do with this thing?"
|
|||
|
|
473 "Great Un-Space, you mean. We still don't know how it works. That's why
|
|||
|
|
474 I'm taking an extended leave of absense. I'll work on it in my lab at home."
|
|||
|
|
475 Stan stared at me, thought about it. "I'll help you."
|
|||
|
|
476 That's the offer I'd hoped for. I extended my hand. "Shake on it, partner."

523 Reality storm? Isn't that what Dreamtoucher had called it? This
|
|||
|
|
524 sudden turmoil before me, a white-gray mass of blinding light clashing with
|
|||
|
|
525 midnight dark. A whirling firey "portal" that seemed to be hanging, pa
|
|||
|
|
526 paper thin, in front of my table,. I sheilded my eyes, hoping that this
|
|||
|
|
527 "storm" would go away very soon.
|
|||
|
|
528 And suddenly, peering out from my hcover, I saw that is truly WAS over,
|
|||
|
|
529 for the moment. Sighing in relief, my mind slowed down long enough to let me
|
|||
|
|
530 wonder what had caused it, and if it had any connection with the way my senses
|
|||
|
|
531 kept picking up faint traces of Dreamtoucher and Snowrunner.
|
|||
|
|
532 Suddenly, a hand gently touched my forhead, and I quickly scampered back
|
|||
|
|
533 towards the wall, turning my eyes up to see who had done this.
|
|||
|
|
534 I was greeted by the young eyes of an elf. Dreamtoucher and Snowrunner
|
|||
|
|
535 stood before my table, and I thought I could just barely sense another
|
|||
|
|
536 near them, but my sense of this being eluded me...
|
|||
|
|
537 And that was when I began to feel a tingle in the back of my mind, like a
|
|||
|
|
538 small wind, winding through my mind's channels.
|
|||
|
|
539 And then a rush of words, of sentences, bursting like a butterfly
|
|||
|
|
540 from it's cocoon and dlflittering about inside me. And best of all, I could
|
|||
|
|
541 understand it!
|
|||
|
|
542 "Hello, Zephyr. Greetings from Dreamtoucher."
|
|||
|
|
543 :::::=====:::::=====:::::=====:::::==Zephyr::=====:::::=====:::::=====:::::=====

544 Dreamtoucher: Read your message on Messenger. Is this good enough?
