Time was a fluid thing in the soul. What could be an instant inside was years outside or vice versa.
The Bridge of Souls was an experimental weaving but Lind was stunned at its functions. Once Ilyria and her mother connected, the burden on his Qi was greatly lifted. The weaving also seemed to become much more efficient or perhaps it was simply his perception.
Regardless, he was having an odd experience.
He was aware of what happened in the nexus they were meeting in while the outside world was also there. At times it seemed like he could see every drop of water frozen in the waterfall while at other times it became a solid wall of water falling so fast it could sever the world.
He truly had no idea how much time was passing but he saw the 4 figures arrive outside the waterfall. They could not seem to enter but he recognized 3 of them. He was unable to sense anything due to using the weaving but the deference the 3 Moon Tiers gave him spoke volumes.
