        The best energies of the Nexus had gone into the design and
construction of those ships, for the wealth and reach of the Nexus
had automatically increased the number and the strength of its
enemies, as if by the operation of an inexorable law of physics.
Though the Nexus had paid lip-service to the highest of ideals, it
had ultimately, in truth, been a society of high-energy warlords.
Hence in the Nexus - a society of incredible wealth - poets,
architects, musicians and healers had had to struggle for
survival, while those who devoted themselves to games of death and
war were richly rewarded.
        Thus the greatest creation of the Nexus was the MegaCommand
Cruiser, a battle machine capable of fulfilling the worst
scenarios of Ultimate War.
        Members of the Free Corps were typically oblivious to the
probable consequences of the military dynamics which had governed
the Nexus for so long, but Hatch was ready to believe that there
was a good chance that, were the Chasm Gates ever to be reopened
by miracle or by a vaunting renaissance of high technology, then
the Nexus might well be found in ruins.
        While Lupus Lon Oliver thought that a great Age of Light
surely now dominated the Nexus, Hatch darkly suspected it to be
peopled by hairy savages runting around in the wasteland ruins of
cities ten thousand years dead. If Hatch's grim premonitions were
right, then the Nexus truly lived only here, here in this illusion
tank universe where two dead ships cruised through frictionless
space toward the moment of collision.
        There was no sound but for Hatch's breathing, the beating of
the blood in his ears, and the white noise deliberately generated
by the suit itself - absolute silence being bad for the soul. So
floated Hatch, and with him in the darkness floated his forces,
the wink-lights of their suits creating transient constellations
in the abyss. From the enemy's direction there was no answering
light.
        Where was Lupus Lon Oliver?
        Not in his ship, surely.
        Surely he couldn't be so stupid, so blind to what had
happened.
        Or could he?
        Hatch imagined Lupus on the deck of his MegaCommand, staring
at dead screens.
        That MegaCommand Cruiser was coming ever-steadily closer as
Hatch and his battle-suited warriors drifted through the vacuum.
Hatch's men began firing rocket flares at regular intervals. By
the green-white ignition of the flares, Hatch saw vast swathes of
the bare hull of the enemy ship. But none of the enemy. What was
Lupus playing at?
        - He's still in his ship.
        - He must be.
        - He doesn't realize!
        If Lupus did not realize that the two ships were on a
collision course, then he would have no good reason to abandon
ship.
        Hatch flicked the chin switch that would allow him to speak
with his troops by means of the modulation of electromagnetic
waves of a particular frequency. There was a special name for this
electromagnetic communicator, but Hatch found he had momentarily
forgotten it, because he used such primitive devices so seldom.
