So, hey...

[Hey, Keelial. Remember him? He looks a lot more tired than before, his hair is ruffled and his shirt looks partly undone. It looks like he's sat in the College.]

Anyone noticed the pattern on the Turtle's shell? It's... pulsing. It started like... three? Four days ago? The time between the pulses is getting shorter.

I'm not sure what this means, but... hey. It sounds important, right? I've done some math and, well... I think... [Yawn.] ...I think the pulses are gonna stop in a week or so. If the period between them keeps getting shorter.

Assuming that's what this is.

... you know, even after living on a gigantic turtle for some months, I still have to quell the urge to think "that's impossible". ... But could one such event bring us home...?

[voice]

[consultingbishop]

Possibly. I've not noticed anything to the level of what we experienced back home, and people seem to be acting as though this stuff is perfectly natural, so... I'm not even sure if this place is affected by them.

Yet.

Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed that we'll get lucky- but I won't count on it. There are so many of us here from so many different worlds, the odds of all of us getting to go home would be astronomical.

Getting lucky is my specialty.

[pompous_today]

Let's hope it carries over on this side.

[consultingbishop]

I'll drink to that.
