The day after visiting the Observatory, we had planned a trip to the main planetary library, which was run by our new friend Neil. With him we met at a party given in honor of his return home, commander red, before that saved us from certain death.

The meeting was scheduled for the afternoon, so Arthur allowed himself to luxuriate in bed till eleven hours of commercials. Then slowly brought himself up, went down to the restaurant and had a hearty Breakfast.

Then we called bill. He also expressed a wish to visit the library, although I was hoping to find there the answers to the questions that would help to find us a way home.

Neil was waiting for us in his office, when we entered the premises of the library. The tacit security team took us to him.

Neil, as well as on the eve of Vic, began a meeting with the fact that he offered to taste the wine of a century of aging, made at the winery, which belonged to his great-great-grandfather.

“I hope we're not sapiensa, this cute, friendly planet”, flashed in my mind, and happily flew away.

The wine was great. It had a fine flavor, great aroma, like a real bouquet of exotic plants, and magic colour, to describe which I have not even found the right words. It played many-sided in the light, shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow.

For several minutes we silently enjoyed it. I even with pleasure he closed his eyes.

  • Well, how?- slyly smiling, asked Neil, I did.
  • Not a word, ' I replied, blissfully squinting his eyes and trying to extend the pleasure of wine left to finish.
    What's it called? - then I asked.
  • “Tear of IReady” - after a pause, replied the owner of the office. - Was the name of my great grandmother, who died in the Prime of life, when the planet was attacked by evil invaders, who arrived from the neighboring Galaxy.
  • Our people as he could, resisted them. Unfortunately, at that time our technology was far behind in terms of technology used by the aggressors. We were defeated, for several years been in this hell that was arranged for us by the colonialists. But we didn't give up. In clandestine laboratories, our scientists have been developing new types of weapons and space technology, constantly stealing from aliens their technical and technological secrets.
  • One of these laboratories was in the basement of our winery. As she was known to our enemies, is still unknown, but in one day, they came to our plantation and killed all who were there that day. Then I died heroically and Iriada, who were trying their best to keep the door to the basement, to avoid enemies.
  • Also a and my the only daughter, which, too, rotted away, engaging in interplanetary battles. She was in the rescue team, which, taking the signal " SOS " from one of the planets, was ambushed. From the crew of the ship, which it was a part, survived only three people. They then told what had happened on this planet.
  • Unfortunately, ' sighed Neil, I couldn't even bury my little girl our way. All I have to do is mourn her over a glass of wine bearing her name.…

Neal was silent. I was beginning to say words of comfort, but he only waved his hand and turned away. It was evident that his grief was still so great that it burned him from within. No words here can't help…

Thank you for your attention, until new meetings!
