[Pavel doesn't know how much of a threat Khan is, or what kind of threat he poses. He's dangerous enough to warrant multiple warnings and, somehow, he was responsible for killing Kirk; that's sufficient cause for caution, as surreal as it is to have an enemy from home on top of all of the City's usual strangeness.]

I wouldn't have guessed that the doctor knows a part of the sky so well. Do they have symbolic meanings?

[Kirk's dream is the last thing that Pavel wants to mention as he collects paint and a brush and climbs up onto the desk. That's one of the worst things about the City--the invasion of privacy. People become more and more likely to share personal information as their time in the City accumulates and curses render even the best-kept secrets common knowledge. It's better, sometimes, to reveal secrets before curses reveal them.]

I have not decided. Do you have a favorite constellation?
