I. The Venetian World
 Ivy left her fingerprints on the crystal sky. The Count & Princess Lei fell into swirling grey clouds. Time passed & the urgent sky of Saint-Emilion opened. The moon rose & flooded the rows of vines in a soft white bed of light. On the midnight hour a distant bell tolled in muted Braille.
"Madame." said the Count in a low voice. He nodded politely.
"Monsieur." replied the shadow.
The Count removed a small black book from his breast pocket. He tore out one small page & clipped it securely to the hard cover. He produced his pen & the black ink flowed. He wrote:
"Madame- I bring you a confidential letter from the divine pen of revolution against the Union of Worlds. I am honored to be your personal messenger & private confidant."
The Count handed his note & letter to the shadow of liberty. They spoke no words. No words would stray to hidden ears of authority. She embraced the Count in moonlight. Then she slipped away into the long shadow of night.

I. Christmas Island
Astira watched the infrared waves of deep crimson travel from the horizon & break upon the beach of black sand far far below. The hypnotic Zen of the surf beat like a meditating heart.
"We got a few black diamonds from sky roof. We build our ocean boat & sail in two months. Then we escape from Lotus of Civilization."
Astira stood confident. Ozymandias flickered in logical thought. 
"Beware Astira- we are in uncharted waters." warned the Dragon.
Suddenly a cacophony erupted- black cave parrots echoed & mocked the wayward traveller's every word.....

II. The Venetian World
Easter morning- church bells peeled in golden harmony. Spring birds sang in an avian chorus of hope. Ivy's palm spooned her cloudy crystal ball. The Count & Princess Lei fervently held hands dressed in a circular sky of white lace.
The Count turned to the Princess.
"My Lady- the black diamond is not in the vault. We encounter impasse."
The Count frowned. Princess Lei sighed.
"Count- that ancient petrified tablet. Could I look at that?"
"Of course you may."
The Count handed the tabula rasa to the Princess. Her delicate ivory fingers traced its ancient contours. Then her knowledgable eyes focused on its tiny glyphs.
"Count- its rongo-rongo."
"What" said the Count. He gazed at her in perplexity.
"Rongo-rongo. It's ancient writing from Easter Island- from the time of the earliest civilizations before the galactic empire."
This piqued the Count's interest.
"Incredible! What does it say?"
Princess Lei furrowed her brow.
"The usual sort of trivia with many tributes..."
Suddenly her mouth fell open.
"Count- this long passage is about a historic supernova- visable even during the day. It states the supernova showered a planet with black diamonds."
The Count stood transfixed.
"What planet?" asked the Count.
"The Lotus of Civilization."
The Count & Princess stood in rapture.

I. The Crescent Lake
Taryn touched his buckle. Stealth text hovered in the air.
"We trapped in big ocean cave below desert. Can you hyper-jump Trader Star to pick up Astira?"
Taryn grimaced. His fingers played the air glow.
"Negative- hyper-jumps not that precise. I could overshoot & burn up the Trader Star in the center of the planet. You need to get to the surface."
"We can't go back same way. They will kill us. Robot friend says maybe old spaceport far away can get out. Only chance."
Taryn shifted uneasily.
"Get to the spaceport. Then I will pick you up."
"Yea- but keep your head. Mule take over your little brain with big psychotic propaganda. Really- you not know up from down."
"I met Dragonfly."
"Yea Dragonfly. She know Silk Path & the Way. Even some future history. Find many trade riches."
Taryn looked out the window. The Crescent lake cut a light blue arc on the mocha desert.
"Astira- I want you to know"

II. The Venetian World
The Count & Princess Lei held hands. Sunset fingers of golden Ivy twined the vineyard. The stained glass sky turned to a dark crystal. One thousand & one stars bubbled in the crystal sphere.
"Count- welcome to Saint-Emilion."
"Thank you." said the Count.
"I am tired from travel & shall retire early. So I bid you a pleasent evening."
The Count nodded & smiled. He gave the man a generous tip. The door closed.
Later, the Count watched the moon rise over the braided field. He opened the window & latched onto a trellis. In moments his feet planted on the ground. He disappeared into the endless rows of vines.
