I. The Venetian World
Ivy palmed the crystal ball. The Count & Princess Lei held hands. Thor raged in his crystal prison. Then his sky cleared...
The vault door refused to open.
"Now comes the moment of truth." said the Count.
Princess Lei pursed her lips. The Count fingered the master dial.
"The crazy old merchant said start with one year. Then eight years. These time spans into the past mark the two great turning points in the Mule's conquest for the Union of Worlds. Both time spans are Fibonacci numbers by a mysterious process of history leading up to our present year."
The Count rotated the dial to one, then eight.
"Now, for the 3rd & 4th numbers, add the Fibonacci number 34 to the sum of the prior two numbers."
The Count dialed in the mirror number 43.
"Now repeat."
The Count dialed in the number 85. He looked at the Princess.
"Think, 43 & 85 years ago mark the rise of the Trader Worlds & the destruction of the Empire at Trantor. Our Fibonacci tour of galactic history is complete. Ready?"
He pulled on the vault door. Slowly, with great effort, the heavy door opened. The Count & Princess stood anxious at the threshold. Somewhere inside lay her black diamond pendant.

I. The Venetian World
Ivy caressed the crystal ball. Constantinople emerged from the clouds of Time. The Count & Princess Lei held hands. 
"We have ten thousand gold coins!"
The crowd buzzed. The Merchant of the Empire cast a conquering smile. The auctioneer paused- a mere formality of process.
"Ten thousand gold coins- going once, going twice"
One finger rose.
"Ten thousand & one."
 A shadow of hushed astonishment eclipsed the theater.
"Sir- payment in gold is required forthwith. Do you wish to hold your bid?
"Yes." said the Count.
"I have need of a servant girl- this Princess will suffice."
The aquiline eyes of the Princess burned with hatred. She spat in his direction. The Count's implacable face broke into a thin gruel of a smile.

"March wind blows tonight:
Cherry bloom, A dragonfly,
The child tugs a kite."

I. The Crescent Lake
The night wind rose. The humming rose. The red dunes began to stir. In the moonlight, the bright dagger flashed its retreat back into its sheath of shadow.
"So it's easy- rescue Astira in the Trader Star."
Taryn eyed the Dragonfly.
"No- the Mule tracks her like a beggar of death. Astira suffers in the great desert beyond the Pacific dunes."
Later, the child fell asleep in her chrysalis. The Dragonfly closed her eyes. Dreaming, she could hear the children of the lost millennia play- far far away upon the humming dunes.
