Devotion
“Tikki asked as Okil prepared to go to Earth.
“Why would I?” he asked. “The Hier Council unanimously voted to continue with the deep space missions; although there is no guarantee they will create a colony. But now is not the time to argue that fact. Wait until they have found a planet.”
“And you think it’s perfectly natural for the council to allow Charlie’s parents to come and live here?” she asked for the hundredth time. “I never expected them to change their minds about human males coming to Karal.”
“Nothing the Hier Council does is ever perfectly natural,” he said smiling and kissing her. “I am just pleased they have made an exception. Of course it is safer for them to come and live here than for them to be allowed to live on Earth.”
“You mean the alternative would be for them to have been killed? Murdered?”
“It could have been done. I am sure the Hier Ruler is capable of anything to protect the planet. As he should be. The fact that the President was in on this has compounded the danger.”
