[he opens his mouth to say that maybe the baby wasn't dead, but, the baby was very dead and he knows it, so he closes his mouth again]

...Seraphim are born from the earthpulses, usually. I don't think that was a lie we were told. But we've never seen that happen ourselves to verify the exact process, and no one's ever said it's the only way for seraphim to be born.

It could also be an anomaly that no one was aware of as possible. Maotelous was being hidden near that village, so it must have been on top of a strong earthpulse. The events that took place there could have caused something to happen that no one expected.

[oneandmikleonly]

You think the strength of one of the Five Lords could have caused it...?

[he bows his head a bit, enough for his hair to shield his eyes]

...there's so much we don't know. I didn't realize I'd need to ask Maotelus about that sort of thing, so...I didn't...I suppose I could go back and ask. Sometime.

[when 'sometime' will be, no one knows]

[imsorey]

We might not be able to ask now, but we might still be able to get some answers. Or form a hypothesis. If we're traveling to other worlds, it's possible that one of them could have had something similar happen that could provide a plausible explanation.

[he's grasping at straws, unable to sit quietly and play the waiting game if there's some way for them to look into what happened]

[oneandmikleonly]

Perhaps.

[he's too far away for Mikleo to touch, but there's a tiny nudge in Sorey's head anyway, mind-to-mind through their own telepathy rather than Qri's, a shaky reassurance]

. . . patience. It'll be all right.
