What path was that?

Well. By the time I talked to them face to face, I'd already gone on it. They'd given me a hint through someone else, first. [ complicated... ]

A hint...?

More like a time, really. I didn't know what it meant, but it was a start.

What did you have to do, on this path?

... Find a way to recreate the circumstances where I'd first heard that date on the date itself, to make it simple.

... Huh?

Sorry, I don't think explaining it more would be clearer. It was just--recreating the day I first heard them on the date they gave me.

[ ????? ]

And... what did that achieve?

Ultimately it gave me the power to change the outcome of that day.

[ dont worry about it. ]

To redo events that had already occurred, you mean?

Sort of. More closer to undo, but. Close enough.

... Then, there was something you needed to undo? Did something bad happen?

... Someone close to me died.

Oh...

[ a sympathetic look. ]

... Then, could this power be used to save that person?

That's what I was hoping for. I didn't know for sure it'd work. But it did.

[ !! ]

That... that's wonderful! It must be a miracle.

I think miracles are usually less work.

[ but it's teasing ]

In my religion, they are not.

The... sacrifice thing?

Well... I mean, more generally. Our god is not one that grants miracles, but instead grants us the strength to make our own miracles.

What's the difference between a miracle and doing it yourself in that case?

The source of the strength, and the odds of success, I suppose?

I don't think it worked that way for me.
