I. Terminus-
"The Foundation isn't what it used to be."
Toran paused. He took a drink from his Slingshot.
"But 3 centuries is a pretty good run I guess. After so long the corrupt bureaucrats & the well connected insiders take over- they ride the coattails of all the glorious historical momentum, they ride the momo right into the ground. Truth be told, the Trader Worlds do the heavy lifting these days."
Beta sighed. She had to admit there was a lot of truth in what the Trader said. Still...
"The Foundation is destined to succeed. It's all part of psychohistory, the Seldon plan."
She looked at the Trader. He lacked intellectual depth. How could you argue with psychohistory- whatever it was exactly. Nobody at the university could tell you how it worked. But it had worked so far.
"Look- nobody can predict the future. Too many unknowns in the universe, too many weird things can happen. It's just common sense."
Toran smiled, somewhat amused at the girl. She wore tight pants & a white blouse. A bright shiny silver pendant hung around her neck. Very nice. She was good looking- that was for sure.
Beta looked away. Twilight deepened. The Diamonds materialized on the horizon.
