[ Time is something that functions reliably in this space of existence. It's their minds that don't.
Just about half the people he pulled through he deemed mistakes - he gives a light nod. This is something he's discovered himself, by talking to some of the Summoned who arrived back then. Unlike many of the others, without any proof except for his own fate - he doesn't believe Ambrose or the other factions have much control. He's noted her own clear disdain for the High Mage.

If hundreds of lives were the cost of such control of the Singularity, would the queen hesitate? Libertas proved she does not care about those outside of her own realm, and Nott's treatment proves she barely cares about those outside of the castle. His features go tense, just the slightest amount - then he sighs. ]
With deconstructing how their portals work? No. [ He doesn't expect to. All he's been able to gather is that some require a similar kind of key or pass - such as the one that goes to Nocwich. He doubts that he could figure it out on his own, either way. And he wouldn't have to figure them out at all if it weren't for the damn wards, he'd just move through the Gray Space instead.
He raises an eyebrow. ]
Have you?
