[HQ Ignorance] Scene Five: The Nameless Man Arrives

[Erica Hoehn]

Kalen ponders... "I am not too good at riddles, but this
Nameless Man is exactly what he says, a man.  He is
created, not constructed though he bears the gift of time,
he is not time, or he would be a construct."

"He wishes to protect mankind as a whole.  Perhaps he is
somehow related to the legends of the Great Compromise, but
mayhap I do not know enough to say for certain."
