Odin had given me a brief lesson on getting from place to place through doors, and had given me the task of bring Mora home. My first thought however was of the inn were Emily and I had been staying and so there we were. It took some practice all this door stuff let me tell you. When we arrived we decided to book a room and try to gather our wits. We were blown off course even more by what happened next. We entered the in to get a room for the night and the inn keeper smiled and said “Ach, did ye girls miss yer flight then?”

I just looked at her with my mouth half open, later Em picked that I looked like a bass standing there. “I guess so” was all I could say. “No worries then dears, yer rooms still open” smiled the innkeeper, handing me the key.

“Um, what time is it, we are starving” Blurted Emily. “It’s past 10 now I think miss,Sups already been served but I can fix ya up a tray and have Maddie bring it to ya” said the lady

With that we headed to our room, i was still shocked. This changed everything. While we had been back home over a month, we had only lost a few hours here. I needed to talk to Odin. Unfortunately we had left the book behind. Now I’m telling you the truth, I almost fainted with fear when Odin’s loud voice came popping into my head. And as always he had quite the laugh at that!

“My ,my the years have made you forget. I hear everything in my name. What is it anyway?” he asked

“The time difference” I thought

“Let me see, yes I remember, it has been so long since I spent time there, I had meant to fix that, but as it is a day here is roughly an hour there”

“Thanks” I thought

and with another laugh, he was out of my head. So Emily and I began trying to figure things out. We decided we could just leave things as they are, live both lives. With that we went back to our normal lives a few days later.

It didn’t work. I sadly found that once I was myself again, the life of Cassidy meant little to me, and neither did those in the life of Cass. The children still matter, but the connection wasn’t the same. My other best friend Nicky, he still mattered. The world looked grey and bleak. It was impossible for me to carry on there. I sold my business, it meant nothing. I sold my home, Emily, the kids and I moved in with Nicky. I told him everything, I showed him Dreya, it was like he already knew. I went on like this for two months. I hadn’t went home since I left. I had to get Mora home, it was time to go back.
