    The expedition succeeded: on that, all the witnesses agree. Even Lady Mmona, who warned so direly at the outset. Even Lord Jestocost, who was personally responsible for the cleanup...

    “It went wrong,” said the girl Santuna at the inquest. “And it was my fault it went wrong. If that was a success, I want no more successes.”

    Summary

    "I was there for that ‘Let there be light’, and I tell you, there was ten million of us angels out there to gather it up, and not a steamer or a donkey-engine to haul it with, neither. I could write a whole book of the Bible about the hauling and the digging behind those ‘Let there be’s. For ten cents I would write one. That world of yours took us a solid week of work without so much as a dinner-break."

    Summary

    A collection of fragments from Angharad Scott’s research and correspondence. In which another, less familiar, world is revealed, and stories are told.

    I have stood in the shadows of the lamassu. I have explored a Palace of unending rooms, utterly silent beyond the rushing of waters below and the caw of birds above. Your stories are true — and more than that, they are only a fraction of the stories that can be told.
