Dromie popped in. "I will try again with my people to rescue prisoners! Rentappenen lied when he said he would kill them. He uses people's skills."

I looked at his eager face. It's wider than it is tall. He looks like a freakin' cartoon! His mouth goes from ear to ear, filled with blunt teeth that are wide, too. How can he smile like that? That neon green skin just makes those blue eyes seem to glow. But that's the same glow some Biehshah have, that Adia has, that Fhiahans have. It's upper level contamination!

He frowned. "It's not contamination! Yamotenanten gave us properties to fight Rentappenen, because he cheats. Gifts can't be Taken, once Given. That's why we have to go see The Padrisa Council when we finish. They don't know what to do with you, and with me." Now he did look kind of sad.

J~oie reached for him, but Wslarc appeared and frowned. "You should not be here! I exiled you!"

"Want to win this war? You can't win without me!"

"You can fight without contaminating this world!"

Dromie pointed to Adia. "Look at her eyes and tell me she is not contaminated also! Yamotenanten knows more than you do!" She trembled.

He sighed and it rumbled on us! "And he must judge us all. But I warn you, your people will pay."

"As long as we defeat Rentappenen, I'll be happy! Nobody wants us, but we can live on that planet with Granny and her family."

Wslarc frowned at him. "Did you think about whether she will like it there, or her family, in isolation? Gwen wanted to live in a Black city with friends. She is young, and friends are important to her."

"But, she has Granny, and Luna—"

"Earthans are a social species. They need others to be happy. No one will risk contamination to visit them—"

Molly got off the bed and bowed to him. "Pardons, but these Earthans are part of my people. I will visit them. I wish you would just let us do trade remotely. They will need supplies—"

"You do not understand. Dromie's server is contaminated, and will contaminate servers of the Alliance and Unified—"

"They are already contaminated! Look at her eyes. Fhiahans traded with Biehshah. Then they traded with Ye~ and Areon. What you call contamination is the Gifts Yamotenanten gave them to try to compensate for what Rentappenen did by supplying herbs from upper levels—"

"And, The Padrisa will decide what to do with all of us! This is your people's fault for siding with him!" Wslarc's rumbles shook the walls! We were back underground, and people filled this building and the garden, too! It was bigger than last time.

That cat-eared fella with the black fur popped in. "Oh, so dramatic! You are just a clone, so don't expect me to do what you say." His brown eyes watched Wslarc.

His face and body changed colors with lights, but not like Yamotenanten. His hands and feet kept twin fingers and toes. "Your people are also not supposed to be here!"

"Dromie brought us back. I am the reason Earthans have Gifts."

"Your people will also be judged! Why would you waste so many eons of Gifts on a primitive people?"

He laughed. "Because Rentappenen's well-laid plans can't compensate for their unpredictability! Your people should learn from us—"

"My people are weary of your people's disregard for this level's rules! You should stay extinct!"

"Well, I didn't have anything to do with it, not at all! Dromie brought me back.'

"And you released your people from Lidara's Hubs, where I put them! I warn you, I acted on behalf of the 2nd Level Council—"
