But
since
the
cubes
could
forestall
his
transmission
of
thought,
and
perhaps
could
read
and
understand
thoughts,
how
was
he
to
tell
Jaska?
How
show
her
that
a
way
of
deliverance
had
been
given
into
their
hands,
if
they
only
possessed
the
courage
to
use
it!
Again
came
that
thought,
which
Sarka
recognized
as
the
telepathy
of
his
father:
"Courage!
You
will
win,
and
Jaska
with
you!"
Thoughts
could
come
in
to
them
then,
but
could
not
go
out.
Or
did
it
mean
that
the
cubes,
or
the
masters
of
the
cubes,
did
not
care
if
the
prisoners
received
messages
from
outside,
because
they
knew
themselves
capable
of
frustrating
anything
the
prisoners
planned?
Perhaps.
More
than
likely
that
was
it.
But,
looking
through
the
bottom
of
the
globe,
into
the
sea
of
white
flames
below,
Sarka
gripped
more
tightly
his
ray
director,
and
tried
to
marshal
the
forces
of
his
courage.
There
was
surely
some
way
of
escape.
Some
way
out
of
their
strange
predicament.
