But when are we here? Every time we take the whale I never know how long we've been traveling. It felt like we were traveling for at least a day.

The blockade is still visible, so it can't have been that long.

I did tell Rizoel that what time we arrived was important to us. Sometimes to arrive where we need to be sooner, it takes longer to travel.

What?

When we're traveling via Rizoel, time acts differently for us. I'm not really sure what's going on, myself.

Remember when we escaped Cryostoria. It only took us a few bells of travel, but we were gone for days. This is kind of the opposite. Longer travel, but shorter time passed here.

Wait, hold on. So it took us longer on the whale than how long actually passed out here?
Arntta

That's correct. Rizoel travels somewhere, and somewhen, we don't exactly fully understand. They seem to have a very different understanding of time than we do.

Ionian scientists have tried talking to them about it, but... have been less than successful.

You know, I'm not gonna lie.

This kind of stuff would give me a headache if I stopped and thought about it for a while.

Don't strain yourself. We need everyone in top condition.

I feel like this 'different time' thing could be exploited for profit, somehow.
Arntta

And that's why access to them is so limited! To prevent del from doing exactly that.

I also feel like there's something in all this that proves why Ion is such a strong world power...
