Dimensional Descent

'That's right...' Leonel suddenly thought back, trying to remember his exact state of mind back then. For some reason, it felt a bit foggy, something that he wasn't used to. It was as though two separate memories of the same thing were overlapping, but both just slightly different from each other.

But then those two memories became three, then four, then eventually they weren't memories of anything, but rather probabilities and deductions. His mind went blank, and he felt a heavy overflow of fatigue and dizziness that didn't stop until he forcefully stopped himself from thinking about it anymore.

'What was that?'

Leonel frowned. He had never experienced something like that before. It was like he was trying to deduce his own memories, but that was ridiculous.

'No, it's like I was trying to think of other possibilities that might fit with that timeline, but that's...'

Leonel was taken aback. He understood. He was making an attempt to find a perfect string of events that could have occurred in that moment, leading him right back to where he was now. But the number of possibilities was truly infinite. No one in existence should have a mind that powerful, let alone his current self.

Though he understood the what, what he couldn't understand was the why. And even if he had succeeded, what would have been the purpose?

He had a dark thought, but he didn't even want to go down that road. It threatened to make him frustrated once more and it almost brought him right back to that broken state. The words that El'Rion had spoken echoed in his mind, and the supposed uselessness of The Hourglass was put on full display.
