Onwards
As the teleportation ended, Daneel felt to his knees, the image of the sacrifices that had enabled him to leave burned into his eyes.
He just lay there, panting, for some time, staring at the matrix that had been immediately shut down so that no one could follow. The upgraded system's cognition module had to be thanked for that; before, when the system had still been in its infancy, he would have had to give it orders for it to do something like this, and so, not for the first time, it had saved his skin when he was too stunned to do anything.
The screams were added to the echoes that emanated from the very corners of his mind, now, accompanied by those of the dead enforcer's family. Even though he had left the island, it felt as if they were still front of him, so near that they could be reached if he just stretched his hand forward…but Daneel did no such thing, knowing that their lives would have been lost in vain if he did something so foolish.
