I. The Venetian World
Ivy palmed the crystal ball. The Count & Princess Lei held hands. Thor raged in his crystal prison. Then his sky cleared...
The vault door refused to open.
"Now comes the moment of truth." said the Count.
Princess Lei pursed her lips. The Count fingered the master dial.
"The crazy old merchant said start with one year. Then eight years. These time spans into the past mark the two great turning points in the Mule's conquest for the Union of Worlds. Both time spans are Fibonacci numbers by a mysterious process of history leading up to our present year."
The Count rotated the dial to one, then eight.
"Now, for the 3rd & 4th numbers, add the Fibonacci number 34 to the sum of the prior two numbers."
The Count dialed in the mirror number 43.
"Now repeat."
The Count dialed in the number 85. He looked at the Princess.
"Think, 43 & 85 years ago mark the rise of the Trader Worlds & the destruction of the Empire at Trantor. Our Fibonacci tour of galactic history is complete. Ready?"
He pulled on the vault door. Slowly, with great effort, the heavy door opened. The Count & Princess stood anxious at the threshold. Somewhere inside lay her black diamond pendant.
