practiced The Old Religion with them. Most of
them were Hashons but a surprising number were Havens. Morn's circle of
supporters among both races, was growing constantly. He didn't doubt
that some of them might also be in North's movement.
57 Morn had finally managed to get a few Agents into North's
operations, and had some vague idea of what he was doing. The growth
and extent of North's Movement, especially in the outlying districts
amazed him. From the scattered information he had, Morn calculated that
North easily had control of one-sixth of The Empire from the western to
the northern and eastern sectors. Only in the south did he seem to be
moving slowly, but growing.
58 This would be a Rebellion like none before, not two or three
scattered systems against the entire Empire, but a vast network within
and without, that would have a good chance of succeeding in their
purpose.
