| To explain a little further, the reason why the party returning from
native world have arrived where they have is to do with the nature
of Jenny Elf. She still has the original body of a Wolfrider. Now Ti'mma
is the mother of all the Wolfriders (or would have been - time travel can
cause strange paradoxes). Though she wears a different body now, like has
called to like during the magical passage between analog universes. However
if Jarlath had not been so rushed in his casting of the Return spell, his
party would have arrived back where they had started instead of where they
did.
Jarlath and his companions hastily apologise to the startled Spaceman Jones. They ascertain from Jones that at least they are - as far as they can tell - in the correct universe, which is a big relief. However competent the mage, there is always the risk of something going spectacularly wrong when casting such an advanced spell, especially if it's done in a hurry. Being at the Military's base at least means that they are well placed to get some transport to take them on to their correct destination. Meanwhile, next door Jenny Elf had been looking down at the photograph of a young elfin girl who - although different in some respects - strangely reminds her of her mother [13724], until her attention had been grabbed by the room's occupant coming round. He clearly recognised her. Could this perhaps be her mother? She hadn't been sure whether those who had been reborn would necessarily be the same sex as before. Then there was some sort of commotion in the next room. Go Back |
