LAZARUS CAIN

Chapter summary:

Back on Artemis Isis employs her intuition to determine Jim is heading to Earth and may even already be there. She wants for her empire the technology that he used to manage such a feat. She rightly guesses that Jim used the "wormhole effect" of the local black hole to slingshot across space towards Earth.  She sends a ship into the black hole to explore its properties and discovers the extraordinary effects which allows extreme spatial displacement within a negative time displacement. With this fact in mind, she orders a portal to be constructed on a star cruiser which can be used for two way displacement of a party and herself  between a portal on Artemis and the cruiser. She assembles some volunteers to accompany her as she plans a mission to Earth taking advantage of the newly discovered negative time displacement effect. She would be able to arrive ib Earth space weeks before her fleet arrival.

​

Isis called the fleet which was on its way to Earth. The flagship also carried a portal on board. This would also allow her to be present there when the fleet approached Earth. She became firm in her belief that Jim was already there. As a result, she ordered the fleet to increase speed to maximum possible. In a few more days she would be able to receive telecommunication signals from earth. If Jim was there and up to anything, it would be hard for him to conceal his activities from her. Catching him? Now that is another story.​​
