Weeks passed, and departure from Salou Sain began to be openly discussed. Finally, during one dreary dinner a definite date was fixed upon, a date a week and a half hence. The days now took on a different character, each with its distinctive identity. Captain Maloof, Wingo and Schwatzendale visited the Glicca, and were occasionally joined by Myron, but more often Myron remained alone at Sarbiter House, thinking dismal thoughts.
A day and a half before departure, Myron was galvanized by a sudden impulse. He visited his bank and his legal representative, made arrangements with an estate agent, dismissed the domestic staff, hired caretakers and packed his personal gear. On the appointed day, at the specified hour, the Glicca departed the Salou Sain spaceport. Aboard were Captain Maloof, Schwatzendale, Wingo and, to no one’s surprise, Myron Tany.
