Crystal wished she'd figured out a nicer way of telling him. Wished she hadn't been the one to tell him. But there hadn't been a choice, Acacia hadn't wanted to, despite being the oldest. Hadn't wanted to, or couldn't because she'd fainted and her mind was still groggy from that.

By the time Acacia had been aware enough to drag them out, Crystal had already started to tell him. Had already asked the question they needed to know.

Her sister's words, her suggestion that the Ministry would try to find a way to reverse the magic that had caused this phenomenon to happen made her bristle. That they'd take Dunstan away from them, to see if any of the magic lingered in him.

Acacia was right, if anyone found out... they'd be sure to try and find a way to fix their timeline. They'd just gotten him back; she'd be dammed if they took him away from them. Even if, they had apparently never lost him to begin with.

She shook her head at his question. "I don't know about Father, if he remembers or not, but from Orinda's reaction, I would bet that she remembers." she was avoiding the word 'dying' while she spoke. "As for everyone else... I don't think so. Someone would have said something before us, if that were the case."
