The Transcript For This Page

Three Panels

PANEL ONE (upper half of page)

The maindeck of _Sweek Lestvoh_. Heavily-armed mutineers and
prisoners stream from the mast's elevator door, and half a dozen
hatches in the deck, catching uniformed Jendynes unware.

The Jendyne uniforms are the same blue as on their flag-sails,
with the crest on one shoulder. Otherwise, they're like Napoleonic
uniforms, complete with silly hats -- the sillier the better -- knee
britches and white stockings.

There's fighting everywhere. Toward the right, blue clad officers
are shouting '_Sweek Lestvoh_!' and 'Halliwater!' Toward the left,
ragtag rebels are shouting 'Islay and Freedom!'

----------------------------------------------------------------------

PANEL TWO (lower lefthand quarter of page)

Bretta (now sans space-suit, and with her quivver slung across her back, shoots a Jendyne at close range with her crossbow. The quarrel enters one of his eyes and sticks out the back of his skull.
His hat is still in the air, and he doesn't look happy.

Flying out of his hands is a tube (with a rifle-like sling) very
similar to a bazooka or LAW rocket launcher -- except that it's a
communication device, a chemical-based laser.

Bretta: 'Exactly what I need!'

PANEL THREE (lower right quarter of page)

Watching more or less from deck level, we see Bretta's back as she
'fires' the device at _Kestrel_. Where the bright blue beam crosses
the #-field margin, there's an orange ring around it.

Bretta: 'Break off! Break off! My family's here and we're taking the
ship!'
