She lives on a ship. [ His grip on Knives's hand tightens – this is important. ] The only ship left that still works.
[ Which might not be true anymore, with the arrival of the ships from Earth, but he doesn't have the first idea where those might be, or how to get in touch with them. ]
The only sure way to get in contact with her is by radio. Any house out by itself will have one, and in any town big enough to have a bar, there'll be one there. Her name is Luida, on the three gigahertz band, channel eighteen. Luida three eighteen. Tell her who you are and she'll come get you.
[ Just in case. In case they get separated, or... or something happens. ]
