Later Years
Ten years later, Joranum's former follower, Gambol Deen Namarti, has re-started the conspiracy under the leadership of Gleb Andorin, planning that he will become Emperor with Andorin as First Minister. Seldon sends Raych to join the Joranumite movement under an alias. But he is recognised and drugged with 'desperance', a drug which increases induces depression and reduces his willpower. He is forced to obey orders.
He is infiltrated into a group of newly-recruited gardeners for the grounds of the Imperial palace, and forced to use a blaster on his father, Hari Seldon.
Manella Dubanqua, an undercover security officer working within the Joranumite organisation, saves Raych by killing Andorin; Raych is saved from having to kill his father.

Famous quotes containing the word years:
“To be honest, I knew that there was no difference between dying at their years old and dying at seventy because, naturally, in both cases, other men and women will live on, for thousands of years at that.... It was still I who was dying, whether it was today or twenty years from now.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“Today 23 years ago dear Grandmama died. I wonder what she would have thought of a Labour Government.”
—George V (1865–1936)
