Patrol would be glad to set up, on any desired number of these
barren planets, as many atomic power plants as the Cahuitans
wanted; with controls set either to let go in an hour or to maintain
stability for twenty five thousand Galactic Standard years.
The Cahuitans would immediately extinguish all vortices not
containing products, and would move all living products to the new
planets as soon as the promised incubators were ready.
“Products indeed—they’re babies!” Joan insisted, when Cloud
stepped the information down to her level. “And how can they
possibly move them?”
“Easily enough,” the fulfillment told Cloud. “Blankets of force will
retain the warmth necessary for such short trips, provided each new
incubator is waiting, warm, and ready.”
“I see. But there’s one question I want to ask for myself,” and
Cloud went on to explain about the unbelievably huge sphere that
crossed Civilization’s vast expanse of space. “What’s the reason for
it?”
“To save time and effort. The product Medury devoted much of
both to the evaluation of a sufficiently productive, esthetically
satisfying, and mathematically correct construction. It would not be
logical to waste time and labor in seeking a variant or an alternate,
especially since Medury’s work showed, almost conclusively, that his
was in fact the most symmetrical construction possible. Now
symmetry, to us, is what you might, perhaps, call a ruling passion in
one of your own races.”
“Symmetry? The first twelve vortices were symmetrical, of
course, but from there on—nothing.”
“Ah—that is due to the differences between our thinkings;
particularly in our mathematical and philosophical thinkings. The
circle, the sphere, the square, the cube—all such elementary forms
—are common to both but the likenesses are few. The differences
are many; so many that it will require several thousands of your
Galactic Standard years for certain of my fellows and me to tabulate
them and to make whatever may be possible of reconciliation.”
“Well . . . thanks. One more question . . . maybe I shouldn’t ask it,
but . . . this that we have laid out is a wide-reaching and extremely
important program. Are you sure that you are able to speak for all
the Cahuitans who will be affected?”
“I am sure. Since we are a logical race we all think alike—
logically. On the other hand, your race does not seem to me at the
moment to be at all a logical one. Can you speak for it?”
“In this matter I can; and you, in my mind, will know that I can,”
and in this case Cloud could indeed speak for the Patrol. Philip
Strong, after one glance in Cloud’s mind, would issue the necessary
orders himself and would explain later—to anyone capable of
accepting the true explanation.
“Very well. We will destroy the empty incubators at once, and will
go ahead with the rest of the project whenever you are ready.”
The Cahuitan broke contact and vanished.
In the ship, Cloud got up. So did Joan. Without exchanging a
word or a thought they went hungrily into each other’s arms.
After a time, and still keeping one arm around his Joan, Cloud
reached out and punched a button on his intercom.
“Captain Ross?”
“Ross speaking.”
“Cloud. Mission accomplished. Return to Tellus, please, at full
touring blast.”
“Very well, sir.”
And “Storm” Cloud, Vortex Blaster, was out of a job.
A The reader will please understand that I am doing the best I can
with words we all know. E.E.S.
