| + | After Gyeil's first moon of training had been completed, and much preparation and fretting, Sokhani had begun to speak to those she could trust. Specifically looking for those who knew of ways to resolve such strange, aetherial questions, Sokhani thought of two others: Azazelle, an Astrologian of great merit, and Cirina of the Malqir tribe. Sokhani chose the latter, though not without great reason. She'd known Cirina for a great period of time, and her trust for the woman was absolute. Now there was only the case of how and when to assist the crying star. |
| + | |
| + | Sokhani's efforts soon bore fruit as she began to rummage through her banks of knowledge. There were theories brewing in Sokhani's mind, and mayhaps she could use these to properly insert herself through to another present. The issue would be altering this present's probability to allow her to appear in it, and so then the question of how began yet again. Cirina proposed a solid idea: to write the book a second time entirely from the memories she had of its contents. Due to the book becoming her very nature, she was capable of recreating its words, though she'd have to purchase the leather binding, the pages, and glue for it all. While the tome did not need to be exactly the same, it did need to appear foreign enough to demand interest. |
| + | |
| + | With Sokhani's attention to detail, even if it was unneeded, she faithfully recreated the tome and once again visits Cirina within her yurt. The two had conjured up a plan to utilize a significant amount of earth crystals to supplement Sokhani's ability to view her own timelines. With enough aether, the Earthen Serpent might be capable of doing far more than just observing stars, she might be capable of placing items or interacting with the scenery. While there was delay in arriving at this point due to an issue with Cirina's health, they did come to it with only seconds to spare. |

| + | Should the two of them have been any later, they would have seen the end of a pathway. The Sokhani who had killed her sister was soon to jump from a cliff to pay for her crime, but instead, Sokhani and Cirina within the proper timeline had used the power of aether born of crystals to send her a message. The book of blackened leather and Ishgardian paper was sent through to another present, though with no small amount of effort and weariness from the two who did so. |
| + | |
| + | The wailing Sokhani plucked the book from the rocks she was to fall from, and she set about reading it. While Sokhani herself hadn't been observing the star, this one did everything it could to study what the pages contained. She learned of the ways to twist time backward, just as Sokhani in this present tried to do, and using the theory of rearranging a timeline did she continue forward on the path to ruin. This controlled danger could at least be interfered with, and this plan was what the entire foundation of helping the woman was built upon. |
