He quickly discovers that, as a guardian of Law, and, by extension, time, Gammon is the best source of information on Time there is. "Time is... almost impossible to change. What has happened has happened. This does not mean that travel through time is impossible, merely extremely difficult, and has already been accounted for. The Quaruts work to ensure that there are no true violations of causality. If a being travels into the past, there are two alternatives; a trip where they do not violate the laws of causality, by attempting to change what is<em>known</em>, and thus are allowed to exist. These are accounted for and do not change history, from any perspective. The second is when they attempt to change the<em>known.</em>In this event, it, too, has been accounted for, and a Quarut is present at that point in time, to intervene and disrupt the attempt. A failure on the part of the Quarut can lead to a temporal paradox. At best, it merely causes the victim, and, likely, the cause of the paradox, to cease to exist. At worst, it can cause the destabilization of the entire multiverse." Gammon finishes speaking, though he's clearly still thinking.<br/><br/>After a moment, he speaks again. "You are concerned about the Marilith. With the information she stole from the Tome. With your own knowledge of your Yet and your Age. Rest assured; if she were to succeed in causing a paradox with you, you would not simply vanish. You are significant enough, the entire multiverse would likely vanish with you. This (will not be/has not been allowed to happen.*)"<br/><br/>(*The words used are in the dialect of the language of Law designed specifically to deal with Time Travel.
