"I think a Seldon crisis is pending- & that if it isn't, then away with the Seldon plan altogether. It is a failure."

I. The Crescent Lake
"Astira is in great danger. There is a new & evil force in the galaxy."
The Dragonfly paused. Her trim black figure formed a silhouette against the moonlit water. She appeared unarmed.
"A new & powerful force? Like what are you talking about- Feng Shui?"
Taryn halfway laughed. He felt sceptical.
The Dragonfly frowned.
"No. There is a leader with super human power- the First Citizen of the Union of Worlds."
Taryn's mood took a serious turn.
"Yea- I've heard of him. But he's no threat to the Foundation."
The Dragonfly frowned.
"No. He is a threat to everyone- including the Foundation- & especially Astira."
"Where is Astira? She sent me an SOS."
"Yes. Open a hologram map. I will show you."
Taryn touched his buckle. A rosy holgram appeared- a picture of Toran & Bayta on Terminus. Just engaged, they both smiled warmly. He touched his buckle again- a map of the Crescent Lake appeared. It glowed softly pink in the white moonlight.
"Yes." The Dragonfly smiled. From nowhere she produced a bright Samurai dagger. She carefully pointed to Astira's approximate location.

II. The Venetian World
The sun set in vivid watercolors. A string of pearled moons rose into the dark heavenly vapor. Twinkling stars sprinkled the midnight hour.
"My Lady- those who see the past, present & future illuminate the dark prison of our mind.
The Count held the soft gloved hands of Princess Lei. He leaned forward & kissed her red lips. Somewhere- light years away- arose the very first bloom of spring.
