Thank you, Sir. I will have communications prepare a message for the two other colonies and inviting them here for a two day conference. I will also forward by messenger an agenda and a request they add anything we may have overlooked.

The message........in the open and in the clear.

To : FEU & Last Chance Corp...............Gentleman: Erin Nova and Gem extend an invitation to join a seminar for all the colonies to discuss trade agreements and set a common system of monetary values. Additional information will be sent by courier.

It has been a long day and we had covered much. We had accomplished many things and tonight I will Relax a little and drink a little stout too.

Cahir and I had our last meeting. I would return in one weeks time with my brothers and our families for the ceremony making us Knights of Saint Patrick. Thus making our groups closer together. We promised to keep in touch via Radio and messengers. We said our good byes and Donnchadh was again our guide. I rode with my new friend and we discussed things of little importance to pass the time of the journey.

"Donnchadh. March warden of Erin Nova" I stated, "I have asked Cahir's permission to offer and invitation to visit us. I would like you and your men to come for a visit when it is convient for our Lord."

We will leave you now and in seven days we will meet again. You shall meet my family too. Untill then, Good bye and God bless. I alighted from his vechile and offered my hand to another good man.

Our two groups say their farewells and each in turn would return to their home bases. It would feel good to get home and to see my wife and family and to tell the others all that I have learned. I sat back and let Captain Hill perform his duties. He too was a good man that I could trust and call my friend.

Shortly after we left our escort from Erin Nova, Robert Grant met us with another escort from my colony. WE greeted each other and Robert joined me in my transport and we discussed things in general and about an hour later we pulled up outside the entrance to th cave system of the plateau.

I found my family and we Had something to eat and then I sent for my brothers and their families. When we were all together I explained the meeting with Cahir concerning the ceremony. The women were to make preperations to travel to Dun Loaghaire in Erin Nova and representatives from our various groups would acompany us. We were to ware our family tartans and so were the women.

We left the ladie to talk and we headed towards the major conferance room. Waiting there for us was the rest of our Board of Directors and we sat down to discuss all developments.

As the GEM scientists and others try to understand the cylinders that was found in the two caverns of the plateau. Something had gone wrong, seriously wrong. There was an explosion that in turn ignited more of the cylinders ausing a massive explosion that completely destroys the plateau and surrounding area. Almost total destruction and "THE END".
