["Your existence here, your memories of what was and will be. 'Fate' is time's memory. You being here now, coming back like this — it is like taking a rock from a river and throwing it upstream. Right now, you are simply being pushed along with that stream. If nothing changes, you will continue to travel downstream until the natural end of your life. But if the entire stream shifts its course and the rock tries to travel where it once was, it will come to a stop. It will no longer be in the stream."
An imperfect metaphor, but the best she can come up with when her own memories are so fragmented.]
