"So where next?" Just now, The Halcyon Girl said: "Impressive, isn't it?" Mitis asked. Haly stumbled into one of the bookshelves, scattering the tiny manuscripts, and leaned against it. "What did you do?" she moaned. TAAron quickly grabbed her and held her steady, although we was a bit disoriented himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot that the Shadow Realm isn't so nice to everyone. Give yourselves a minute or two, you should recover quickly." She looked at her rune-covered hands. Need to be more careful. Can't do things like I used to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I'm sure they've decided the outcome already. If they've really decided to erase Essa's involvement, all we can hope for is an outside factor they don't expect. If it gets that far, be unpredictable--don't let anything you do make any sense." She started off between the bookshelves. Haly smiled at Lerac, then at TAAron. "Thanks.

"No reason to thank me," TAAron said. "Not their own futures--that's our big advantage. They can't see the pages that are their faults, or that they affected. That rules out Jove, and Essa. Neither of them know how the story ends. I won't either. The books assume that the agents don't get involved, so it--when they do, that removes their one big advantage." "But I'm thanking you anyway." Quote What Ranryu said "Because this makes it more real. We're kind of old fashioned. And nobody can just hack a computer and know everything about the universe."
