Farewell to the Interplane, The Nasarij Part 4

Some time later, Sima felt a strange sense of balance—almost as if she were at home.

She had read a great deal, and her mind was saturated with information about the Interplane and Crystalline Intelligence.

The uncertainty that had accompanied her upon arrival had vanished. In its place came a vague, quiet longing.

From the books, Sima knew what it meant: It was her spirit's yearning for the physical body. Yes, it was time to leave. She told Seelia about it, and together they set off—Flummy, the cat, close to Sima's side—to the woman at the desk who had once received her.

Everything was discussed in calm words. Crystalline Intelligence had determined a destination for Sima. A return to La Carca to her friend Pusha was unfortunately not possible. No portal existed there, and the plans for Sima's future were of great importance and led in a different direction.

Her destination was Narada.

Seelia entered the coordinates in the portal display.
