Juli, DallE, and Steve climb together into the Pleiades, on the planet of the ineffable--Corianthe (with its moon Astarhe), where they briefly learn about its forms of relief, about the Alexandrian Sea of Slightly Rosy Amethyst, about the Corianthians and their customs, about the connection between the inhabitants of the planet and children on Earth, and about picomers--the primary forms from which earthly desires are born.
