Anandra caught the way Gus was looking at him. “What?” “I hate to admit it, but I might need your help.” Gus struggled moving Caius the handful of feet necessary to reach the container. There was no way she would be able to relocate him into the heart of her sanctuary without assistance. Anandra looked…
Gus retained enough calm to realize the question had been posed in Tuann. A language few humans understood. None of whom were likely to be on Titan.
