"Impossible"
"Did the Orb just..." - Drasnia gaped.
"Yes," - Isle growled.
"But isn't that..." - Algaria attempted.
"Yes," - Isle growled again.
"But it's... how?" - Algaria tried again.
"I don't know," - Isle said - "I have been trying for the past Decade to explain the concept of Impossible to that damned rock. At this point I'd settle for it understanding Limits."
"Good Luck," - Drasnia finally managed - "From what I've heard it's spent the majority of it's existence around gods. They don't seem to understand the concept of Limits, or they just ignore it."
"I realized that, thank you," - Isle glared at her brother, - "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go save our elder brother from his apparent bout of sudden stupidity."
"Leave him," - Algaria collected herself enough to say, - "He got himself into that mess..."
"He used to be a lot smarter when we were kids," - Drasnia muttered.
Isle gave Algaria on last glare as she walked away, - "You don't get an opinion, it's half your fault in the first place."
Universe Notes...
Hi again! I have two more short ones, a long "World Meeting" type one, and I am thinking of putting the character profiles on here for anyone curious about what they look like. At least until I get the individual stories up. Which will likely end up in here... maybe. I also will be posting a list of in work snippets after this one, if you'd like to maybe vote on the next one. Or, I could put up the rough draft of Riva's 'story'... Anyway!
Riva, Drasnia, and Algaria are talking about Cherek by the way. I'm not entirely sure what happened, I'm not sure I want to know what happened, all I know is that it is fairly early on in their history. Like, only one or two generations of separate Kings so far, early. Like, Riva Iron-Grip is still alive and that's why Riva is going by Isle in this Snippet, because she is still The Isle of The Winds.
By the way, Riva is the youngest, with Drasnia, then Algaria, then Cherek as the oldest. Only by a few months as far as my research into the Pre-Belgaraid timeline shows, but apparently it's enough for Riva to be embarrassed by her older 'oh my gods, you know better, why is this happening' siblings.
Hey! I think the notes are shorter than the story this time! Also! If it showed up... the doll on the cover is Riva!
