Ghosts On Aeneas

The Day Of Their Return.

Ivar Frederiksen thinks that he sees lights move across the dead sea bottom:

"...lanterns on ghost ships, sailing an ocean that vanished three million years ago...." (2, p. 80)

Chunderban Desai sees:

"Afar in the desert, a dust storm went like a ghost." (3, p. 99)

Poul Anderson gives us a feel for the Aenean environment. This is what Aeneans see and also what they sometimes imagine. There will be ghost stories especially since the ghosts can be those of the Ancients who departed this planet three million years ago. Aenean ghost stories could be fictions within the fiction of the Technic History.
