Kurzbeschreibung
A mere few hundred years after the founding of Nyk's homeworld, Florans had returned to space to extend their presence to other, more hospitable worlds. One such world was the colony of Varada, founded on an Earth-like planet.
After losing too many vessels in the dangerous Varadan approach, the Florans decided to abandon the colony. However, a stalwart band of colonists refused to leave. Now, after thousands of years of isolation, the Varadans desire contact with their planet of origin.
Because of his talent with languages, Nykkyo is asked to accompany the delegation to Varada and to serve as interpreter. There, he learns a terrible secret about Varadan society; and he discovers the sinister motive a behind a certain Floran faction's interest in the forsaken world.
