I.
The Dragon waved goodby and then walked away along the dock. Princess Lei watched him disappear into the crowd as the sun sank in the west. She felt cool & alone. The Twinkling Star rocked her gently back & forth in steady rhythmic waves. The stars appeared in unfamiliar patterns. Far from home, she found comfort in the Twinkling Star- a home away from home.
Later that night she felt the liftoff & the smooth rise into the night sky. Londontown was only a few minutes away, & the Dragon said it would be safe from the Mule.
A few minutes later she could feel the descent. But then she felt uneasy- something just didn't feel right. Was it a woman's intuition? She could now see the lights of Londontown appear out of the fog- getting closer every minute.
Suddenly she turned to the holo screen.
"Computer- take us to coast- the White Cliffs."
And just like that the next 1000 years of galactic psychohistory changed.
