I thought the stories were exaggerations, but the sheer scale of this place is suffocating. Millions of people living under metal ceilings... it feels less like a capital and more like a machine. I'm here to meet Seldon, but I can't help feeling like every equation I solve is just one more cog in a system that doesn't even realize it's breaking. Does anyone else feel like the stars are getting harder to see? #Trantor #NewBeginnings #Psychohistory
