Astira rushed out of darkness & called out-

"Miss Change! Let's get out of here- I have mail truck!"

The dragonfly then opened her eyes to the material reality of the rapid universe.

"Yes- the delivery girl. Are you the mouse or the lion?" she asked.

"Wtf!? I am Astira of the Second Foundation!" And for once Astira felt the joy of stating the naked truth.

"I sense a ring of tigers. We do not have much times!" And Astira drew her laser pistol & ushered Miss Change into the darkness.

Tiger, tiger, burning bright

In the forests of the night.......

And Astira felt the blast of emotional heat- psychohistory didn't repeat- but it could rhyme….

The Dragon of the Black Market felt the drag of acceleration double his weight as the lights of Temasek fell away- the carnival in Italy so many years ago- the double cross of the Count- Layla & the conception of their daughter Simona- all memory dust now scattered across the stars…….

And just below Miss Change & the delivery girl would fall prey to the burning tigers- if they were not dead already. All psychohistory of the Second Foundation- nothing more.

Simona de Valentine listened to the Foundation engineer explain the theory behind the hyperjump- "largescale waves of thermodynamic curved spacetime emerge from the collective behavior of prespacetime "atoms of information". A quantum spray of these atoms can disconnect from the largescale spacetime continuum & then reconnect- a quantum hyperjump. The Protostar will harness this quantum prespacetime effect in a brand new & untested way." And then he stopped & looked at Simona,

"Are you with us- you could be the very first person to step through our new spacetime hyperdoor….."

Magic- one light touch of her silver pendant & the news of the day filled the air- the formation of the First Union on Kalgon, growing discord between the Free Traders & the Foundation & then something small, something on a more human scale, but somehow it seemed more important.

"Toran, look at this" said Beta, her voice unsettled. Toran sat up & read the story she projected through the air. And then he looked at Beta sadly.

"The secretive engineer who designed your silver pendant- he died today." And Toran reached out to gently hold the gleaming silver pendant laid precisely upon her snow white figure, framed by her silk hair of fine black lace.

"He remains a black box- he said fame for the sake of fame was delusion leading to suffering, that a fully awakened being has no need for such delusion."

And Toran & Beta looked out over the beach of New Daytona as the ephemeral spray of the surf lived out its brief & bright existence …….
