With all this preparation, Yor petitioned the government for permission to read a portion of his great-grandfather's SEDER Journal to include in the ship's unveiling speech at a planetary celebration. Now, as Yor entered the library, he was more determined than ever to discover the truth even if it meant heading out into space himself.…
