Philip the Bard's Harappan Blog: Dusty Waters' Business


Welcome lovely readers. Thanks for being here.

Yesterday we mentioned that Miles Sanderson still has regular card games with Mary Waters. Mary is more commonly known as Dusty. That is what she went by when she lived on planet Lava in the town of Salmo which is where Max hid from the SID.

Dusty ran the Salmo Hotel which was not really a hotel but rather a brothel. Some historians question wether Max knew this fact or if she was unaware that there was a brothel right across the street from Max’s Saloon. Well that is just silly. Of course Max knew what was going on. I mean, after all, isn’t Max Gavaskar the smartest person in the Milky Way? Don’t you think she would have figured that out?

If you read the novelization The Gavaskar Field which tells the tale of Max’s exile you’ll learn that Max knew about the brother and in fact she spent time there visiting with Dusty and she even got to know some of the young people that worked there. It’s rumored that they came to Max’s aid when the SID tried to close the noose on her.

The story was that one of the girls working for Dusty who looked a little like our Max dressed in some of Max’s clothes and served as a decoy while Max escaped town with Kiki. That would indicate that Max knew these people and that their relationship was a good one.
