“The reading is still further north,” Lawson reported.
Hernandez consulted her Tricorder. “Strange...” she commented.
“Another strange thing?” Lawson asked.
“It seems to be below the Bodelian. But that would mean there are differences in the development of the University.”
“Another difference between universes?” Albert asked.
“Yes,” Hernandez answered.
