"If you think in terms of a year, plant a seed; if in terms of ten
years, plant trees; if in terms of one hundred years, teach the
people." - Confucius

Astira watched the orange trail of light dwindle into the starlit waves.
"Astira, may we talk with you for a moment?"
Astira turned toward the soft voice, or perhaps only the thought of a
soft voice.
"Athena, of course we can talk." thought Astira, wondering why Athena
& Aristarchus seemed apprehensive & concerned.
"Astira, the Speakers made plans for all of us- I will go to the
Foundation at the edge of the galaxy, and Aristarchus, he-"
"I will travel undercover to the Kalgon region- the epicenter of the
Blue Deviations. "
"Aristarchus, your assignment is dangerous, do you not need Astira as
a helper? Someone to watch your back?"
"Little Astira, if only I could, but these are not the Interstellar
Games! And besides, you have your own assignment, provided you accept
of course."
"My own assignment? What can I do?"
Aristarchus cracked a thin smile,
"Astira, you have studied the psychohistory of the Silk Path"- and
Aristarchus waved to the cloudy path of stars in the night sky- "if
you so choose, it becomes your destiny!"
