"The Throne fell...? Then the Authority -" He frowns, connecting the dots with a long look at Neuvillette. "The Authority returned to its rightful wielder, I'm guessing. Interesting."

"If nothing else, you'd think the water cycle would eventually purify the emotions from the rain. For them to still be strong enough to sense it does sound like there's something strange going on." Emotion, even carried in water, doesn't last forever, in Wriothesley's experience. "When I came through this mirror, the reflective surface turned to water and flowed onto the floor, but it wasn't carrying any emotion."
