While 60 years had passed for those in Zocarro since Minos' departure from Armhands' headquarters, just over a year had passed since Minos' departure from the Spiritual World.
Even though he and his group had been traveling for almost two years, they had entered a part of the universe where time worked a little differently. In particular, the zone they were passing through had several locations with opposite extremes, from galaxies where time passed more quickly to other galaxies where time passed more slowly.
Meanwhile, the native civilization of the Spiritual World had been hard at work rebuilding their planet since the departure of Minos, but also colonizing The Adamant Land.
Sarah and George had left the Spiritual World to govern the people colonizing The Adamant Land, taking the Spiritual Church to that planet with them.
