- Prologue
- Kesley frowned impatiently. "What the hell is this all about, van Alen?"
- II
- But yet--
- The hotelman chuckled. "One room?"
- A thick eyebrow lifted. "Will you boys be needing a double bed?"
- He heard van Alen's ironic chuckle. "How are you doing, Kesley?"
- III
- The gatekeeper flicked a thumb over his shoulder. "Go in."
- The guard yelled: "Quiet down there!"
- IV
- Startled, Kesley said: "Huh--no. No, not yet."
- But--
- Yet--
- A man was supposed to feel loyalty to his Duke. Kesley did not. _Why?_
- Kesley shrugged. "Curiosity, I guess. You're quite lovely, you know."
- She frowned. "I don't understand."
- She gasped. "Assassinate--"
- Finally he cupped his hands. "Miguel!"
- Miguel frowned. "The room is crowded."
- Kesley reddened. "What do you mean by--"
- VI
- VII
- VIII
- Kesley nodded. "Want me to help you?"
- IX
- He glared sourly at the little group of mutants facing him. "Well?"
- XI
- Dumbstruck, Kesley said: "You mean a _machine_ runs this City?"
- Suddenly the City's voice said: "Dale Kesley!"
- XII
- WANTED
- Huygens, the man of two heads, said: "Besides, Daveen has been found."
- XIII
- Kesley frowned. "How do you know? You're blind, aren't you?"
- In that silence, Daveen said, "_One!_"
- XIV
- The poet smiled. "I know what it must be like. How do you feel?"
- Then the robot said: "Confirmation requested. Was the name Dale Kesley?"
- A little surprised, Kesley nodded. "That'll be fine."
- XV
- Van Alen chuckled. "Look at my eyes, Dale."
- Van Alen spread his hands. "Would you have believed me?"
- Kesley glanced around uneasily. "Can you justify that policy?"
- XVI
- Van Alen nodded. "Of course, Daveen. You've done splendidly."
- Kesley nodded, calmly now. "I'm back home now, Father."
