  • A Trail Gone Cold

    “We request audience.” No communication captured by the MN relay system was ever particularly cordial or familiar. Indeed, to most of the races that used it regularly, it was treated in such an overly dignified manner that one would wonder if the galaxy was populated solely by administrative bureaucrats. This was, thankfully, not the case.… Continue reading

  • Known Unknowns

  • Massaging Social Convention

    “Have you checked the mail?”A moment after the appartment’s front door opened, Trina was back into her emails. She couldn’t check them on her phone – first, that was illegal while driving. Phone poles had long enough to grow up in front of you, the way it reduced reaction time. Second, replying to emails on… Continue reading

    They expected her to own a car. That was the explanation. SAMMANA owned several fleets, by what she had seen. They had drivers all over the country.None of which were available for a Gaya to Shimla trip, apparently. Or they were too expensive, or something.As it was, Samvrita Kachwaha was deputized to get there as… Continue reading
