Line 6:
The Nomads, an iterant race of traders are meeting at the planet Rendezvous for the Captains council between the captains of each clan/ship. Joachim, captain of ''The Peregrine'' has news. A mysterious and potentially dangerous race has left signs that need to be discovered. He proposed to take his ship for the job. Meanwhile Trevelan, an agent of the Coordination Office or "cordies" is off to the frontier on the same mission.
Sean, a lonely Nomad whose wife has left him falls in love with a mysterious native named Ilaloa. It is agreed to allow him to take her along.
Line 25:
*[[Interspecies Romance]]
*[[Lotus Eater Machine]]: The Alori have a whole planet to use as one.
*[[Magical Database]]: Inverted. The reason it took the Cordies so long to react to the rumors of an alien race is that their computers could not digest all the reports coming in.
*[[The Mole]]: Ilaloa is really an Alori spy.
*[[Mighty Whitey]]: Trevelan is a subversion. He is competent and helpful, and has useful perspectives but he is not obviously superior to the Nomads and Joachim is equally competent.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
*[[Scenery Porn]]
*[[Space Elves]]: The Alori. They are closest to [[Fair Folk]] in style but they are not inexplicable and their motivations are understandable to humans.
*[[Space Cold War]]: Except the humans don't know that a war is on yet or that the enemy exists.
*[[Space Cossacks]]: The Nomads
*[[Space People]]: The Nomads don't just go to space but their ships are their homes and they only go on planetside for business or leave.
