with a flicker of concentration I put the charm drives online.
Twenty seconds before we left Rigel we arrived at Urgenic Deeps Jump
Zone T4. The Charm Drives entered their wind-down sequences and
Sliandra transmitted the message we received before we began our journey
across the vastness of space. Tachyon travel was incredibly safe; you
knew if your jump was successful before you made it; if you didn't
receive a clear jump message it meant that you made the jump wrongly,
transmitted a "No Jump" message and flatlined the charm ignition
sequence and so you never made the jump in the first place and,
therefore, never transmitted a "No Jump" in the first place. Yeah, I
don't understand
