So that was how I did and do the pivot, some kind of event or accident here in the present world, when lost or alone, somewhere in the Olympics, and then being carried or going to another place which is the same place perhaps but thousands of years earlier, and finding themselves on a journey or having an adventure that lasts for days and days, even weeks and months, yet when they then have another incident back in that time and return to this time, or world, only a few days have passed in this modern world.
My guess is that 30 percent of readers, maybe even 50 percent, get to this place in the books and cannot go with me through the pivot, and I lose them, as they cannot suspend their disbelief and give up on the story. Yet, for others, the pivot is easy, natural, exciting.
So is this something that can be understood, and then replicated so people can choose to go places? Is this linked to an ancestral heritage. as for example Sarah's native roots or William's? What about Henry David Olsen who does not have First People ancestry that he knows of (though he marries Dipper a Sol Duc woman) ? Or Laurie, Carl's niece, who is entirely non-Native and not from anywhere near the Olympic Peninsula? How did she hook into this thread or stream or method? And they all seem to go to the same general area, and people, if not time, and how is that?
Is this a form of imagining, or might it be another way to travel, to actually find out things? Chief Seattle said "There is no death, only a change of worlds." Maybe these journeys are changes of worlds. Maybe they can and do travel in time, truly. Maybe this is the way people might be able to cross the stars, not in ships but in these journeys, which seem and are real, with real physical skills and changes upon return to the present day.....

Yes I completely had no other option to believe the sequence of the book was ancestral, because bringing this to reality seems unreasonable.Fine Brand wrote: ↑04 Feb 2022, 01:49 I agree that the sequence of this book is ancestral. Because that the only way to explain the character living with the ancestors.
