We must find George St. George as fast as possible, and Oritz
has told us that only a miner named Montezuma Vly can tell us where he
is. We're on our way to Montezuma's Castle."
"Ah, yes," said Sim Sala Bim, "Sabbath George. He is well known here,
but we haven't seen him in almost a year, I think. Almost a year."
"Sabbath George?" asked Mark.
"George St. George is a devout man-genial, generous, liked and
respected by everyone. Honest to a fault. He's called Sabbath George
because of his beliefs. The nickname is intended to kid him a little
bit, but is really meant as a term of respect and affection. But to
find him in short order, you will indeed have to go through Montezuma
Vly. Montezuma's Castle is not hard to find, but getting in will be
difficult."
"We are familiar with Mr. Vly's convictions and we wouldn't bother him
if there were any other way to find St. George. Given the time
constraints, we have no choice."
Sim nodded. "Montezuma's Castle is easily recognizable by its unusual
shape. It is a true crescent, a sliver of stone with Vly's operation in
its very center." Sim went on to provide its coordinates and other
information the Starmen would need to find it.
Zip continued. "On this assignment secrecy is of the utmost importance.
It is vital that no one knows who we are or what we're doing.
