		<title>10: Home again, Home again&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The day passed slowly, but uneventfully for Tom. While many more people were met, and many more hands were shaken, no more hot or cold or&#8230; whatever, feelings hit him. He was beginning to believe he&#8217;d just imagined it, when he ran into Deborah in a hallway. &#8220;Hey Tom! Sorry I just left you alone. [...]]]></description>

		<title>9: Caution, tech at work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sucking at his nearly empty drink, Tom sat at his new desk. Abandoned by Rocky and Deborah, both with work to do, he sat wondering what to do next. &#8220;No set schedule,&#8221; he mused to himself. &#8220;Nothing seems to be waiting for me to fix. Might as well get homey&#8221; An hour later, computer settings [...]]]></description>

		<title>8: Airheaded</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tom smiled blankly at Katarina, pretending interest in the unending stream of gossip. He gazed around at the restaurant as Katarina droned about who was dating who, who was breaking up with who, and other things of no importance to him. Decorated in an old style, the restaurant was furnished in wooden chairs, tables, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>7: Hot and spicy, to go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Deborah and Rocky sidestepped their way past tables and chairs to a counter marked with a big sign; &#8220;Order Aqui&#8221;. &#8220;So,&#8221; Rocky said sideways, &#8220;He&#8217;s our boy, isn&#8217;t he?&#8221; Deborah chuckled. &#8220;I believe so. You get a feel off him as well I take it?&#8221; &#8220;Ohh yeah. Talk about powerful. If that&#8217;s who we&#8217;ve been [...]]]></description>

		<title>6: The Three Margarita Lunch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[True to Deborah&#8217;s word, the main room had taken on a semblance of life, desks occupied, and people moving in and out. The desk next to Tom&#8217;s was occupied by a man that seemed large from the back. As they approached, he stood up, and moved from merely large to very large. &#8220;Rocky!&#8221;, Deborah called [...]]]></description>

		<title>5. State of the artificial</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Muted earth tone walls, spotted here and there with the occasional painting or picture of a building, curved to the right, coming back towards the main room they had started in. Tom was introduced, praised, questioned, stared at, and fawned over in the mailroom, secretary pool, and call center. Having curved a full half circle, [...]]]></description>

		<title>4. Steamy Interlude</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Walking through the bathroom door, Tom immediately slumped against the wall. His entire body still pulsed, and he couldn&#8217;t be sure if he was burning with fever, about to freeze solid, or both. Staggering to the sink, he waved his hands under the spigot, and water began to flow. The water sizzled slightly and steam [...]]]></description>

		<title>3: We have a winner</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Watching Daneel walking away towards a small unmarked door set in a squat concrete building, Tom felt a vibration on his hip. Pulling his phone out, he saw that the alarm he had set was going off, meaning he was now officially late for his first day. Hurrying across the square towards a copper framed [...]]]></description>

		<title>2: Lost and Found</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Following signs leading to the Capitol Building while trying to avoid the crush of humanity on main thoroughfares soon led Tom in circles. The capitol was in full swing already, early on a Monday morning. Following along the same official walkways were groups of lawyers, tourists, and those coming to the capitol for court hearings.

		<title>1: The Golden Sun Shines</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The great copper dome gleamed, the harsh sun reflecting off the gentle curve in such a way as to set the very air afire, a great golden halo around a building of pure white. The green blue waters of the bay rolled and crashed along the gentle beach front east of the grand building. Along [...]]]></description>
