War between your stars. It had been started out by an AI, and few humans even realized there was a war at all. However now people are dying, not only robots and aliens-and the AI wishes it to stop. But a war is better to start than to stop, and the computer can't alter its course without outside help. If the Gnostic Control System searches for conspirators, it selects its friends carefully.
- Pali: a pr director, who broods far too much on her unfulfilled ambitions.
- Ramo: a flamboyant senso-dancer and sculptor, who prefers a musical jamdam to serious discussion.
- Sage: an awkward systems custom, for whom the AI rapture-field is realer than life.
- And three of the alien Ell: Harybdartt, who would rather die with dignity than betray his people; Lingrhetta, who tries to unravel this is of human dance and music, pain and love; and Moramaharta, the binder, who must persuade his fellow decision-makers to risk everything for the sake of a fragile bridge of understanding across the stars.
