Amil Leyta intended to work in orbital manufacturing, but his career has taken an unexpected turn - Amil has built a device that images the essence of life, evoking the discovery that there is more than one type of soul. They appear on his monitor at deathbed vigils, shining bright across the boundary between dimensions. He imagines they are Angels, guiding spirits to the between-life, and wonders if the Gods will allow what he must do next. Because Amil knows how to bring them here.
