The Peacock 1900
"Benjamin?" say I to Kenny. This is all beginning to come together.
"Benjamin Butterfield at your service, Christopher", says Kenny.
"Facebook group?"
"You were grieving the loss of your father, Jim, just when my mother passed away from breast cancer."
"You were so kind to me."
"As you were with me, Chris", he says bashfully. "As you were with me." We can only sit quietly right now, dumbfounded, trying lamely not to stare at each other. What I never knew.
"Lord", says Carl, "There is a ferry service from this island?"
"The two dimensions have come together. This island in Aaron's dimension has always been on the map, with limited ferry service and a tiny village on the north end of the island. This place does not exist on their radar, and the forest and bush ascending the mountain remain impenetrable. However, as you are ready to depart tomorrow, you will find yourselves rturned immediately to the place and exact time you found yourselves in when I summonedd you all here."
"But weren't you going to keep us here", says Lawrence, "For several days, I mean?"
"And those days have already transpired. The merging of dimensions has also tweaked your sense of time and place. But when you return home none of you will have lost one single minute. It will be as if you never left home. But you will still remember that you were here, and you will also remember all that I taught you.."
