"Yes, like waves on a pond- but those patterns change unpredictably when a pebble is tossed into the pond." said Mark.
"Yes, that's true- but the changed wave pattern is still a solution of the wave equation for the pond- just a different solution from the one before." said Layla in return.
"But if you can't predict how long a wave pattern will last, you can't predict much of anything!" said Mark.
Layla stirred in her chair.
"But what if we enlarge our system to include all information- that is suppose there really are no pebbles beyond our system, only unknown influence from the part of the pond we cannot see- then we would have one endogenous solution of the wave equation for all time- we just wouldn't know which one because we can't see all of the pond- we can only make educated guesses about which solution we are looking at based on the part of the wave pattern we can see." said Layla. And then she stirred her coffee with a silver spoon as she contemplated her imprecise analogy.

"Astira!" cried out the Dragonfly- & she flew to Astira & hovered over her, wrapping her in a protective wing.
"I'm ok." said Astira, returning to the world, realizing she created a bit of a scene, startling her companions.
"You see M, I believe Jammu & the legend of the monks- you see psychohistory cannot retrodict the past because of the thermodynamic arrow of time- but the more information we have about the past the better our predictions of the future! I believe these Monks of Aurora are in fact robots from the lost world of Aurora!"
And Astira rose from the floor & winced as she felt a human twinge of pain from twisting her ankle in the fall.

Twilight fell hard & fast like pieces of eight. Taryn touched his silver buckle & worked his way through the crowd of traders looking for his Kashmir connections. And then he noticed a fair young woman moving with a slight limp toward a group of powerful dragons of the black market….
