"Nancy Corbett," the girl said.
"Perhaps you will tell us why your people are being so foolish."
Nancy smiled at the man, and spoke quietly. "We don't believe we are being foolish."
The man laughed aloud and the others joined him. Brant turned to Gil. "She's not bad looking."
"Do your Rebels really believe you can destroy us?"
"We don't want to destroy you," Nancy replied. "We have no intentions of doing that. We believe you are making many mistakes here in Dreamtown and we believe things must be changed," she said.
"And how do you intend to do that?"
Nancy didn't answer.
The man stood up quickly and leaned across the desk. "Then you admit you are trying to destroy the way of life we have built up here," he shouted.
"No!" the man next to Nancy answered suddenly. "We've told you. We feel it is wrong and must be changed."
