 What is the implied name of the green creatures Horst and his gang are herding?
The ancient rule was sink or swim—swim in the miasma of a planet without spaceflight, or sink to utter destruction! I The horses and packs were loaded before we went aboard the scoutship. The last contact the Ship had had with it—and we were the ones who dropped them—was almost 150 years ago. There are vegetables everywhere and little grubby things just looking for you to crawl on. A planet is all right for a Mud-eater, but not for me. We have a place in the Ship like that—the Third Level—but it's only a thousand square miles and any time it gets on your nerves you can go up a level or down a level and be back in civilization. We swung over the sea from the morning side and then dropped low over gray-green forested hills. They don't care what order you go in, so Jimmy D. jumped up, grabbed his gear and then led his horse down the ramp. They don't let us grow for fourteen years and then kick us out to die. At our next landing, I grabbed Ninc's reins and cut Venie out smoothly. The ship lifted impersonally away from Ninc and me like a rising bird, and in just a moment it was gone. When the sun disappears, somehow you wonder in your stomach if it's really going to come back. The third was to join forces, though not with that meatball In two days of riding, I ran onto nothing but a few odd-looking animals.
