"...the great curdled rush of the Milky Way and the far cold coils of the galaxies..."

Bertram, like Dominic Flandry, regularly exercises in double gravity despite the boredom because a fit body is an asset. It surprises us that he is also an artist and has adorned an academy mess hall wall with a mural - details that I had completely forgotten, of course.
