“Definitely.  In fact that’s really the only problem we’ve encountered; occasional memory leakage.  We’ve run some of these tests over extended periods and the new implants have stayed stable throughout.  However, sometimes weeks or months later, something triggers one of the suppressed memories and it comes bubbling back to the surface. The trigger might be a sight or a sound, or even a smell.  It’s completely unpredictable.  Even then it doesn’t affect the implanted memories.  It just causes a bit of confusion in the subject’s mind.”

“You’re saying that you could take my agent, suppress his technical training and knowledge, retrain him as a farmer who would blend into this primitive society and the only risk is that in two months’ time he might suddenly remember how to disassemble and clean a multi-phase repeating laser rifle.”

“Ah… yes.  Something like that.”

Khan looked around the room at the others.

“Gentlemen, it appears we have the bare bones of a plan here.  We have to find this boy, this heir to the Ystrad throne and protect him from the Belsi.  Chancellor, I’m relying on you to scare the living daylights out of those ambassadors and keep their people off that planet.  Admiral, I want that blockade up and running as soon as possible, to the best level that you can achieve.  And I will go and roust out some agents for reassignment.”

 

 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Peter Kenson was born in Bristol, UK and grew up in an era when computers were new, exciting and the chairman of IBM forecast that there was a world market for maybe five computers.  He graduated in Mathematics with a Masters in Operational Research and spent the next forty years working in IT at all levels from programmer to IT director.

 

He has always enjoyed reading, particularly science fiction and fantasy and wrote his first book, Sertian Princess, commuting on a train in and out of London.  The family loved the story and eventually they bullied him into taking the plunge and publishing it.

 

After a writing gap of many years, Peter now lives in Spain with his wife Diana, where he has rediscovered his passion for creating new worlds for his stories.  The climate, relaxed way of life and the odd glass of wine probably help.
