DRUIDACITY, CELTA, 400 Years After Colonization, Autumn

RuisElder stared out windows that faced the street, checking as he didseveral times a day that no strangers loitered nearby. No assassins orguardsmen hired by his uncle Bucus.

Ruis'sbirthright had been denied himhis rank as the Heir and ensuing Lord of aGreatHouse, and the estate itselfsomething he strove to forget. To remembermade him feel worthless. All he chose to recall was that he must always be onguard.

Hewent to his bedroom and reached through the open window. The wooden drying barthat extended into the courtyard from the rusty brick wall held his last goodshirt. He plucked the red silkeen from the hanger.

Thechill autumn air made him catch his breath. The deep blue of the sky with thedistant small white sun dazzled his eyes. He savored the sweet-sharp tang ofturning fall leaves as he turned from the window. The air felt good, and thesilkeen shirt sliding over his skin felt better.

He'dmoved into this apartment in the heat of late summer, and it was time to leave.He frowned. The intervals between his moves were getting shorter and shorter.

Stampinginto new black boots, Ruis let his gaze linger on the Earth Soil Analyzer,brought with the colonists to Celta. The machine would take more time, money,and knowledge to fix than he'd expected. He stopped himself from picking uptools to tinker with it once more. When he worked on ancient machines, he losthimself in the moment, able to forget his wretched past and ignore hisprecarious future. His fascination with artifacts that no one else cared aboutwas his salvation.

Hetore his gaze from the analyzer. Two Earthsun gems shone in the sunlight on thetable. Ruis grimaced. Stealing was a fact of his life since his defect in Flairpsipowerprecluded any normal work on Celta. When he was able to find a job, itwas as a common laborer. And laboring didn't pay enough to rescue the past.

Hetook the jewels, placed them in a wall crack, and brushed flaking grit from thesurrounding bricks to cover the gems. One Earthsun was for emergencies, forbribes and survival if his murderous uncle Bucus found him. The second was toacquire parts for Earth mechanicals, which Ruis collected from the corners ofabandoned warehouses. Ruis thought he, alone in every other way, was the onlyone on Celta who was interested in saving and restoring the old machines.

Thedoor burst open.

Guardsmenpoured into the room; two stumbled over each other, sprawling. Ruis lunged,aiming for a beefy man twice his weight. Ruis slammed a fist into the guard'sjaw. The man staggered back.
