[It probably should bother Gavial more than it does, to be honest. Do those souls feel lost? Is it something just akin to a blank sort of oblivion? As far as she knows, there’s no way to tell. And because it’s such an unknown, because there’s seemingly jack squat the Shard-bearers here can do to truly prevent it… Well, it’s hard for her to let herself worry about it.]

No idea. I figure if anyone does, it might be Lady Yima. She’s supposedly the one snatching people from the time-stream.

[Gavial slows her pace to match hers, glancing over to get a glimpse of that more thoughtful air around her. It’s definitely a topic worth contemplating, even if Gavial herself hasn’t given it too much thought over recent months. Too busy focusing on the problems that pop up in the cities every so often, because as always, she remains a very “here and now” kind of gal.]

But lots of folks over in Merdian are sure their homes are still around out there so… maybe they just go home?
