The ship Rigor Mortis slipped through greasy clouds and landed with a crunch on alien gravel. The pilot Jale, tired from a long trip in subspace, entered the appropriate octadecimal code and went aft to pick up the resulting shot of whiskey. Its smell reminded him of the hickory tree he and his brother had once chopped down and later regretted. But nostalgia and another shot of liquor gave way to practicality. There was work to do: people do not live by codes, but by what they mean. And the coffin in the hold meant a lot to the people of this planet. Jale entered the hold of the Rigor Mortis with his boots making more echoes on the metal plates than his ears could register. The ship’s illegal megamotors had been thrumming for too long, and it was only gradually that the noise in his inner ear died away, leaving him contemplating the coffin in silence.
