...And Divergence

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 98838

"Don't be so tentative, girl," Belboz told Astra. "If you're to widen the crack sufficiently, then you need to push your hand right through. Just bringing it up to the crack like you did achieves nothing."

Astra shrugged, and then did so. But again nothing seemed to happen, and after a couple of seconds she withdrew her hand. That was when it became apparent that something had happened after all, as the fingernails on that hand were now an inch long!

"Interesting," Belboz said.

"Very," Minestus agreed. "Astra's hand must have entered a reality where time passes much faster than it does in this one, so that while only a few seconds went by here many months elapsed there."

"And the great divergence in the rate of time between here and there must be what is preventing us from passing through to that reality," Belboz said.

"This is all very interesting," Astra interjected, "but I don't suppose that either of you happens to have a manicure set on you?"

  1. But Minestus and Belboz just carried on with their discussion.
  2. Belboz produced a knife from somewhere and passed it to her.
  3. Minestus gestured, and an elegant manicure set appeared in his hand.
