Slave Empire - the Crystal Ship
“He had walked around the chamber twice, searching for a flaw, but had found none.
Not that he had really expected to; it had been a vague hope, nothing more. He could not blame the girl for their predicament; he had urged her to tunnel into this room, and they would not have been able to enter it any other way, as it turned out.
