PROLOG
IT IS THE DAWN of a new era for Mankind.
Since the adventures described in our previous diary, 57 years have
elapsed. On Earth it is now 2102 A.D. and much has happened in the
meantime!
The Druuf danger has passed since the overlap zone between the two
universes has become too unstable to permit further penetrations. Supported
by Earthmen, the Arkonide Atlan has succeeded in consolidating his position
as Imperator. The treaty between Arkon and the Solar Imperium has borne
fruit-especially for the Terrans, many of whom have already taken over
important positions on Arkon itself. Atlan has to tolerate this because he
cannot rely on most of the members of his own race.
The Solar Imperium has become a major commercial power along the rim
of the Milky Way. For the past 22 years a virtual stream of immigrants has
been flowing out to suitable colonial worlds. Also, on many of the planets
inhabited by other intelligences, Terran embassies have been established as
well as Galactic trading settlements.
In short, for many humans the dream of their forefathers has been
achieved-the journey to the stars. And the same is true for THE
VAGABOND OF SPACE…
1/ A QUESTION OF-TEDDYBEARS?!
BORDERING the great spaceport of Terrania were row upon row of adjoining,
flat-roofed building complexes where shipping firms and trading companies had
established their headquarters. Here they were at a vital centre and source of
interstellar commerce.
Somewhat removed into the background behind the main periphery of these
complexes was a small but rugged-looking edifice built of heavy masonry and
stone. Although it appeared to be a military barracks-like structure, it was not, as
was evidenced by the sign in front. When one came close enough one could read
the lettering:
STARTRAMP LTD
Space Travel Enterprises
Proprietor: Capt. Richard Flexner, Retired
However, on this particular day—March 16 of the year 2102 A.D.—if one were
to come this close one would become aware of a thundering voice and a startling
string of expletives ranging through several octaves. An uninformed visitor might
have paled before such a flood of vituperation and quickly retreated but the young
woman who had just arrived by taxi and was now approaching the building with a
sure, firm step appeared to be quite familiar with the operation. She wore a light
summer dress, a broad-brimmed hat, carried a dainty handbag and currently
modish sandalettes. Her features might have been considered soft and gentle were
it not for the warning spark of enterprise in her eyes.
Ludmilla Graybound, née McBain, was not a woman to be trifled with, as her
wedded husband knew only too well. It was this husband, in fact, who was
making all the uncouth commotion inside the Startramp office, little suspecting
that his wife was in the vicinity.
Capt. Samuel Graybound had jumped up from his chair as though he had sat
down on a bed of red-hot nails. “You’re going to have to say that again, Rich—
before I’ll believe I heard it! The Cosmonautic Retraining Institute…?! Now what
kind of undiluted fusil oil is that?. And what do they want with me? Those crazy
blockheads—they can go to the devil!”
The man opposite him was the epitome of self-possession at the moment. He
was seated behind an old desk that had to be at least from the previous
