Acabei de perguntar ao meu novo amigo Christopher L. Bennett (autor de best-seller de Jornada nas Estrelas: Titan # 5: Over a Torrent Sea ) para explicar isso. Sua resposta foi muito esclarecedora.
Q. I’ve just been reading through the Star Trek: Titan books and I’ve found myself a little confused. At the end of book 4 (Sword of Damocles), Dr. Xin Ra-Havreii was left on the Eye of Erykon. It was quite an emotional moment. But wait … He’s back on the Titan at the start of book 5 (Over a Torrent Sea) with no comment made about the events of the previous book or how he managed to escape. Was he rescued somehow? How did he get back onto the Titan?
CLB: I think you’re misremembering. There was a character who was left behind in Sword of Damocles, but it wasn’t Ra-Havreii. Also, the Destiny trilogy by David Mack takes place in between Titan 4 & 5. OaTS begins with a crew complement consistent with the end of Destiny.
Isso está alinhado com o que vemos no livro. A equipe visitante está em uma instalação na superfície do planeta , não no olho em si. Quatro dos cinco partem para voltar ao Titan e Ra-Havreii fica para trás.
“Right now you need to get down to the planet and do what you can to help Commander Ra-Havreii.”
Uma vez que o tesserato se estabilizou (e o planeta reaparece no espaço normal), é presumivelmente uma questão simples irradiar Ra-Havreii da superfície.
Como um aparte, a resposta de David Mack (autor de Star Trek: Destiny ) foi um pouco menos útil; -)
Q. Dr. Ra-Havreii was left on the Eye of Erykon at the end of Sword of Damocles. How did he get back for ST: Destiny?
David Mack: He used Uber.
