Glory's People
“A Small Mutiny The message from Duncan and Anya reached Glory at the moment Damon Ng was facing the first cyborg rebellion in the history of star-sailing.In conformity with the ukase given him by Acting Captain Dietr Krieg (the young Starman always thought of the Cybersurgeon’s commands in such florid terms), Damon had issued the computer inputs needed to alert the monkeys and set them in motion.The young man’s empathy warned him that Dietr’s command to work should probably not have been issued... so abruptly in this time and place. Dietr was a fine medic, but as a bridge officer he left much to be desired.Though no one was certain of the reason, every Starman knew that monkeys behaved oddly in deep-gravity wells. In addition to this fact of a Starman’s life, Glory's syndics well knew that the thousand cyborgs aboard had been deeply shocked by the deliberate attack of the Nimrudite boarders with whom Glory had had to contend in the Ross Stars.Nimrudite attackers had blundered into the Monkey House, panicked, and lasered the harmless creatures where they reclined in the power racks, killing one and injuring others.MoreLess
