		Markab, the primary star of Pegasus, Alpha Pegasus, is of the physical cellular aspect of the Merkabah--literally referring to the corporeal physical body.
		Markab brings to the forefront issues about our physical health and cellular / genetic refinement--the body being the temple of the soul--and whether we are refined enough to be able to fly over the collective human dilemma / consciousness.
		Markab brings attention to not only the body, but to all physical structure in our lives through which we participate--to what we are doing in the physical.

		As the Markabs enter the de facto "quarantine" chamber, the Markab ambassador suggests that if they pray and are pure, the plague will "pass over" them -- a parallel with the original passover story, where a certain sign on the house door made a plague attacking the Egyptians pass over the Jews.
		Note that the Markab did have some contact with the Shadows last time they rose up, as evidenced by the Markab ambassador's speech in "The Long Dark" -- perhaps someone (not necessarily the Shadows; maybe the man at the bar was right) didn't want the Markab around to participate this time.
		What Colin misses, obviously, is that not all of the markabs are "mindless religious fanatics," in that Dr. Lazarenn was not one, but that was mainly because he had long been exposed to human/outsider ideas, which most of his reclusive people are not.
