Carrhae considered altering Delon's course for the two-star solar system.
It would be better to be slightly distorted than to risk the mission over
a "game of tag" with an asteroid belt.  She wanted one more piece of
information before she acted.

<Computer, what is current development--if any--of the planets in the
Renot system (for want of a name)?>

Carrhae smiled.  Her cover was 2-layered.  To most, she would be a Rihanna
businessperson looking to make a deal for a shipment of dilithium
crystals.  That cover would hold, except to a good civilian law
enforcement person.  That one would find the second layer:  a suspected
Tal Shiar agent.  If her meeting with Fox went as expected, even that
layer would not be uncovered before "Sienae" disappeared into the Element
from which she sprang.
