"We
must
speak
with
each
other
telepathically,
but
do
not
speak
with
me
until
I
have
explained
to
you
how
to
mask
your
thoughts
from
all
persons
save
the
one
with
whom
you
hold
converse!
First,
I
love
you!
Second,
let
us
see
if,
searching
the
sky,
we
can
find
the
Earth!"
In
a
few
brief,
highly
technical
words,
Sarka
told
his
beloved
how
to
talk
with
him
in
the
manner
which
he
had
never
before
explained
to
her.
They
had
used
telepathy
before,
countless
times,
but
they
had
not
cared
who
heard--while
now
secrecy
in
all
things
was
the
prime
essential
for
success,
even
for
life.
When
he
had
told
her,
and
she
replied,
"I
understand
perfectly,
and
it
seems
quite
easy,"
they
turned
and
surveyed
the
heavens,
out
of
which,
by
this
new
miracle
of
the
secret
exit
dome,
they
had
dropped
to
the
face
of
the
Moon.
Away
across
the
space
between
worlds,
its
transfiguration
plainly
visible
to
the
two,
they
could
make
out
and
identify
the
world
from
which
they
had
come.
Save
that
they
knew
themselves
standing
on
the
Moon,
they
would
have
thought
as
far
as
appearances
went,
that
the
place
where
they
had
come
was
the
Moon,
many
times
enlarged.
It
seemed
incredible
that
they
had
come
so
far
in
the
twinkling
of
an
eye;
but
that
they
had
was
proved
by
the
fact
of
their
physical
presence.
"Look,
Jaska!"
said
Sarka
suddenly.
"See
how
our
Earth
glows,
as
though
it
were
afire
inside!"
