The Conversation In The Crystal Moon

We Claim These Stars, CHAPTER II.

Aycharaych congratulates Flandry on l'affaire Nyanza, a touch of Fransai in the Anglic, and informs him that:

"'Not even excepting Xingu, [Richard] Strauss is the most misunderstood composer of known galactic history.'" (p. 12)

I had to google to confirm that Xingu was not a Terran composer. Aycharaych refers to known galactic history. Most of the galaxy is unknown.

Aycharaych visited Terra clandestinely to walk in certain forests and see certain paintings and graves. Knowing him, he probably did more than that.

When Aycharaych sees violet as black, Flandry deduces that he sees further into the red and that his sun is cooler and redder than Sol. That does not identify it but every datum helps.
