The Stars Asunder: A New Novel Of The Mageworlds - Plot & Excerpts
R. BEYOND THE FARTHER EDGE: UNKNOWN ENTIBORAN SHIP SUS-PELEDAEN SHIP RAIN-ON-DARK-WATER ILDAON: COUNTRY HOUSE OF ELEK GRIAT Elaeli watched the instrument console on the bridge of the Entiboran ship and wished she knew what it was telling her. The console had a varied array of lights and switches and small flat screens with symbols displayed in them, and she found it at once alien and teasingly familiar. I could make this work, she thought. Just give me some time with the manuals and a decent translator … . She glanced over at the prisoner, tied up with a pair of uniform belts and huddled out of the way against a bulkhead. The woman didn’t look disposed to be helpful. Elaeli turned her attention back to the rest of the bridge. Captain sus-Mevyan sat in the chair by the instrument console, looking across it at a rank of larger flatscreen displays mounted on the opposite bulkhead. The image of Rain-on-Dark-Water filled all the displays: A different angle in each screen, and in all of them an ominous dark presence, a black hunting bird with a prize in its talons.
