FTL and terraforming are the principal SF elements in this quite story of personal desire, professional expertise and responsibility to the greater good .
Josua Arnheim has terraformed a world for his own personal use. He is intensely proud of his accomplishment an shares it with a close friend. Outside circumstances put the friendship and the notion of personal freedoms to the test. To quote Star Trek; what do you do when "the needs of the many" imposes itself on your plans?
It was a lovely story of human desire, compassion, responsibility and loyalty. That's a lot to pack in to a short story but this one works very well. This was a very satisfying read.
