INSET: she turns her pliers, exposing five distinct sets of wheels with settings at the heart of the navigear.<\/p>\n

… perhaps five, though the last might be an imaginary residue—<\/p>\n

SIR ALICE<\/p>\n

An imaginary residue, leaving us with a time machine, like Wells’s aerograph romances? Lady Georgiana, you’ve fallen too much in love with young Einstein for your own good!<\/p>\n

GEORGIANA<\/p>\n

(flustered)<\/p>\n

Be that as it may, the Machine is gone from a sealed hangar, and Commander Willstone, Lieutenant Harbinger, Sargeant Natasha and twenty of her Falconers saw it disappear with their own eyes accompanied by the distinctive ripples I think would be generated by this device—<\/p>\n

BIRMINGHAM<\/p>\n

NATASHA<\/p>\n

BIRMINGHAM<\/p>\n

Overthrow the crown?<\/p>\n

JEREMIAH<\/p>\n

I know. The blackguard told me. He’s gone to undo Liberation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Onward…<\/p>\n
