Twelfth Spell

[courageous-wit.livejournal.com]

I read back, and I saw that I arrived here in Paradisa nearly a year ago the last time. My stay wasn't very long but it does make me wonder... Why do people arrive in Paradisa when they do? I've seen times when many people show up around the same time, and sometimes they come in slowly over several months.

And if we leave and come back, do the different times of our arrival count for anything?

It is very strange and can get awkward when people remember you, but you don't remember them.

There is one here who knows of me and my kinsmen, though I had not met him before. [This would be because he is her son-in-law. Awkward for him.]

Perhaps he's from a different point of time in your world? That happens a lot here.

He seems to know much of my future. But he shares my gift of foresight, so I do not know what he has lived and what he has only seen.

[courageous-wit.livejournal.com]

Is it common for your kind to have that gift?

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

Not common yet not unheard of.

I gather it doesn't work very well here, though.

[She shakes her head] I have not yet been here long enough to truly say. My efforts are nigh fruitless: what little I see is unclear. But I do not know what will come unbidden.

If you do see anything, I would be interested to hear about it.

I will tell you, if it is safe to do so.
