Eye Opener
1. What's Your Name - Boston
2. Fireworks - Moby

Beta walked through the streets of Valloire, stopping at a small
tourist shop. Aerial taxis from the spacepad just outside of town
glided by, some of them touching down briefly, their doors opening
like the wings of birds. Beta watched with disinterest as a lone
passenger emerged from one such taxi and walked in her direction. Beta
observed the lone man clothed in the familiar colonial style of the
early Foundation, & this incongruity aroused her attention.
"My child, it is indeed you!" said the man, & Beta opened her eyes in
disbelief, for she knew well the voice of John Atoms.
---------
Without fireworks the Trader Star touched down, so gently neither
Astira or Tarin could feel their transition from air to surface.

Falling Star
2. Find Your Way Back - Michelle Branch

Feeling the weight of the cosmos press upon her, Beta bid adieu to
Count Bling & Toran & rushed outside into the cool starlight of
Valloire. The foriegn streets offered no solace- the familiar path
through her garden on Terminus lay at the edge of the galaxy, not here
near the center. Long ago it was there her heart revealed its truth &
she reached for her silver pendant- a reassuring gleam of her prowess.
Overhead, a star flickered & fell gently to the horizon.

Descente
1. Signs Of Love- Moby

Astira & Taran watched the curved blue surface of Dauphine grow until the Trader Star sank deep into the atmosphere. The cabin’s three dimensional holographic screen suffused in azure light. Aerial currents of spacecraft glittered in the last light of the sun, now gradually eclipsed by the looming horizon. Thin wisps of clouds melted over the star strewn velvet of night.
"Is really beautiful," said Astira, & she placed her hand upon Taran's shoulder.
