"Seraphiel also said that she believes it to be bogus, though she thought you to be dead."
"She likely didn't know that I was a primordial. Our race's details have become a rather obscure knowledge according to the Goddess after we were... sealed here, to the point that not many are aware of even our existence."
"How does that work exactly when the time is supposedly stopped?"
"The time isn't stopped per se, or to be more accurate it only does when a primordial enters this dimension. After we were sealed here, we no longer counted as a primordial who can evoke this phenomenon, thus when only we are here time flows at the same rate as it does in Thalorind. However now that you, a primordial who isn't cursed by the pact have arrived, the dimension functions as intended, which is why once you return to Thalorind you will find yourself in the exact same moment when you left."
I'm taking the day off.
