Infernal Sky
“She lives in a world of logic and science. Mysteries bother her. They are problems to be solved; and she insists on a certain type of answer in advance. Her stubbornness only makes me love her more.
I’m not stupid. I realize the object hanging over my head is no angelic being. But lying on my back and watching the slow movements of the gossamer creature with flashing jewel eyes I feel a deep calm. The butterfly things that flutter around its flower-shaped head are attracted to the eyes, as I am... attracted. The gossamer being eats the small flitting creatures.
This flying alien is no animal. It is a genius of its kind. But it pays no attention to me. If poor Dr. Ackerman had lived and joined us on this mission, he would have fulfilled his life’s ambitions. The alien base contains a remarkable collection of geniuses; it was a sort of a galactic Mensa.
I haven’t been able to find out where we are, but I’ll keep asking. The only problem with this place is that most of the gossamer creatures completely ignore us.MoreLess
