"I haven't given up, Sir Praetor.  We all have our parts to play.  How do I know?  Ibrahim has told me." Her voice is quiet but clear.

"The images you see...they are of your former life.  You knew this already, perhaps deep within yourself. You would have discovered them on your own, eventually.  But it is important that you know how you are here.  Not just why, but how.  You are seeing these images because something is happening to the world.  Something old is trying to make its way back, and the planes of the fabric of existence are becoming blurred, interfering with each other.  Your purpose is becoming clear.  But how you got here is important, perhaps more so, than the why."

She turns. "Yes, the dying Goddess named you as her champion.  You are the avatar of all that is humanity, that much is known.  But you represent far more.  You represent the New ways, and the balance between the two.  Balance.  That is the key.  But you are not here because the Goddess bid you so.  You are here because she had another champion.  One who went to her, to seek answers, to find a way to stop the inevitable.  She said she could not, but she knew of the one who could."

Adelaide takes a deep, slow breath. "Ibrahim visited the dying Goddess and they struck a bargain.  He would find a way to heal her, and she would bless the man who would help him save existence."
