Plot summary

Kirth Gersen tracks Lens Larque across several worlds, most notably Aloysius, the desert world Dar Sai and the more temperate Methel. He eventually learns that Larque is a Darsh, born Husse Bugold. He had been deprived of an earlobe and made a rachepol or outcast from his clan for a crime considered "repulsive but not superlatively heinous." He took the name Lens Larque, after the lanslarke, an indigenous creature and the fetish of the Bugold clan. (It was this slim clue that enabled Gersen to track him down.) He then became a notorious criminal renowned for his magnificent, if often grotesque and horrifying, jests.

Gersen encounters Larque at a Darsh restaurant on Aloysius, but only manages to cut off his remaining earlobe. Gersen had arranged to impound one of Larque's spaceships, in order to lure him in from the lawless Beyond. In an ironic twist, Larque escapes Gersen's courtroom ambush, blows up the ship, and collects insurance money - from a company owned by Gersen.

Stay with Me (Kumi Koda song)

"Stay with Me" (stylized as stay with me) is the forty-second single by Kumi Koda. It is described as a "winter love ballad" by her official site. Limited editions of the single featured an orgel version of stay with me, a poster and a draw card, much how her previous single, TABOO, did. The fan club editions also included a poster, but also gave the buyers the option of a mirror or mousepad with the fan club CD picture on it.

The single debuted at #1 on Oricon and charted for nine weeks, making it her sixth number-one single and the first time in her career she had two number-one singles back-to-back (TABOO also charted at #1).

The single is certified Gold by RIAJ for shipment of 100,000 copies.
