Pirates of the Timestream
“As it happened, Pauline Da Cunha’s TRD, in addition to her deactivated brain implant, was still among those remains, and therefore fell down into the heap of greasy ash where the closed coffin had been. The little light on Jason’s map display would remain there, as a reminder he didn’t need.
They remained there for a few days. The climactic ceremony of which Romain had spoken was to be held in another upland clearing, this time northeast of the Bahia de Ocoa, only about thirty-five miles as the... crow or the Kestrel flew. But Romain wanted to give his adepts time to fan out ahead as “advance men,” spreading the word and gathering the believers. In the meantime, the prisoners were kept outside rather than aboard the Kestrel, bound even when eating tasteless rations twice a day under watchful guard, prey to the insects at all times.
