Nice take on the time travel paradox!

An interesting exercise in digging a hole, and of course once she had started she had to finish!!! ;)

I really enjoyed this one! I was familiar with the setting of the story from reading Reiffen's Choice awhile back. That reminds me I must go out and get Queen Ferris soon.

Thanks! Glad you liked it. I've always liked this kind of story, and loved writing it.

Not to mention jump in, and fill the hole back in on top of her.

The story actually fills in the back story of a character who shows up in the third book, The Magicians' Daughter.
