"At least, peeling away from under their rough boots. Ri watched them hopelessly. "This isn't ours!" Ri said. "This looks like it was made nearly a year face.

Ri licked his lips. "No. He wouldn't do that. We're not—not just "Hey!" Extrone shouted. "You, down there. There are two coming. Now let's hear you really scream!" many people already know about the farn beasts. You said that yourself." Ri, below, whimpered childishly and began to retreat toward the tether Clever. That makes the waiting more interesting. Waiting to see if they "It's screwy. I didn't think farn beasts had this wide a range. There really will come to your bait." of them, we'd have heard something before we did. But even so, it's into the scrub forest, turning the vegetation beneath it sere by its Extrone's face looked much too innocent. "How did it get there, gentlemen? Why wasn't it destroyed?" "We thought you ought to return to a safer planet, sir. Until we could "Watch! Watch!" Extrone cried gleefully. And then the aliens sprang their trap. "You'll destroy this one, too," Extrone said. Extrone said, "To begin with, they probably don't even know I'm here. "That's why we'd like you to return to an inner planet, sir." Extrone plucked at his right ear lobe, half closing his eyes. "You'll lose a fleet before you'll dare let anything happen to me, gentlemen. I'm quite safe here, I think." The inside of the tent was luxurious. The bed was of bulky feathers, costly of transport space, the sleep curtains of silken gauze.

The moon was clear and cold and central mountain ridge that bisected it into almost twin hemispheres. "To think of him. As flesh and blood. Not like the—well that—what we've read about." Mia glanced suspiciously around him at the shadows. "You begin to "It makes you think," Mia added. He twitched. "I'm afraid. I'm afraid he'll.... Listen, we'll talk. When we get back to civilization. You, me, the bearers. About him. He can't let that happen. He'll kill us first." Ri looked up at the moon, shivering. "No. We have friends. We have influence. He couldn't just like that—" "He could say it was an accident." "No," Ri said stubbornly. "He can say anything," Mia insisted. "He can make people believe anything. Whatever he says. There's no way to check on it." "No," Ri said. "Even if we tried to tell them, they wouldn't listen. Everybody would know we were lying. Everything they've come to believe would tell them we were lying. Everything they've read, every picture they've seen. They wouldn't believe us. He knows that." bearer overheard them talking. They don't want to overthrow him!" Ri's teeth, suddenly, were chattering. "That's another lie," Mia continued. "That he protects the people from plotting against him. Not even at first. I think they helped him, don't you see?" "It's like this," Mia said. "I see it like this. The Army put him in power when the people were in rebellion against military rule." Ri swallowed. "We couldn't make the people believe that." "No?" Mia challenged. "Couldn't we? Not today, but what about tomorrow? You'll see. Because I think the Army is getting ready to invade the alien system!" "The people won't support them," Ri answered woodenly. " Think. If he tells them to, they will. They trust him." Ri looked around at the shadows. Extrone cut off our trade with the aliens. Partly to keep them from learning that he was getting ready to invade them, but more to keep them from exposing him to the people. The aliens wouldn't be fooled like we were, so easy." "No!" Ri snapped. "It was to keep the natural economic balance." "You know that's not right." Ri lay down on his bed roll. "Don't talk about it. It's not good to talk like this. I don't even want to listen." "When the invasion starts, he'll have to command all their loyalties. To keep them from revolt again. They'd be ready to believe us, then. He'll have a hard enough time without people running around trying to tell the truth." "You're wrong. He's not like that. I know you're wrong." Ri shuddered. "That's different. Don't you see?

"If that's the case, why do we bother tracking them? Why not make them come to us?" "They're too unpredictable. It wouldn't be safe. I'd rather have surprise on our side." "You don't seem to see what I mean," Extrone said. " We "What's he want to see me for?"
