Steed and Molly left George and Gurdy and projected themselves to a peaceful green meadow. Molly looked at Steed. "I wonder if someone managed to free Napoleon III’s soul from the computer. It would be nice if we could find someone who knows the best way to free a soul from the computer. But how could we find them, even if such a person does exist."

Steed said, "What about Luke? His soul might have the ability to locate the person. I know it is kind of far fetched, but it is worth a shot."

Molly said, "And other than going back in time to where we know Luke is, how can we find him."

Steed said, "Picture how Luke looked the last time we saw him. Maybe we can locate him in this time period."

So Molly and Steed concentrated on Luke. Then George crept into their thoughts and then the other George who had wrongly been given the death penalty crept into their thoughts. Feeling that they were about to project they stopped themselves.

"No telling where we might end up," Steed said. "I wonder why the other George came to our mind."

Suddenly the soul of Luke appeared out of the Ether. "Because I wasn't sure who you were trying to tell me that needs help."

Molly grinned. "Half the time we don't know what the heck we are doing. We are still new at this."

"Hey, if it wasn't for you two I wouldn't have made it to middle age in my last life. I'm not complaining."

Steed said, "We were wondering if you could locate Napoleon III for us."

"Not without a little work. Take my hands. I want to take you two somewhere."

No sooner than taking hold of Luke's hands, Molly on one side of him and Steed on the other, they found themselves transported to the outside of a pyramid. Then they floated to its triangular peak. As they touched upon the pointed top stone, they suddenly entered a community within the Ether.

Luke said, "This is a realm that a few of my buds and I designed. It is not near as a grand as the Fougere Realm. We have not earned the trust of the Fougeres so they will not allow us into their Realm, but they allow us to access part of their knowledge base they feel we can be trusted with through our knowledge base. You are more than welcome to research things here. When you want to come here picture the Pyramid. Repeat in your thoughts the words King Tut, King Saul, the two the same twice offered and twice denied the wall." 

Molly questioned, "Who are the Fougeres?"

Luke questioned, "You two have never heard of De Sounder Fougere or Silencer? What about Jonathan?"

{Note: Silencer De Sounder is Rus. Jonathan is Steed. Reference: Sitnalta I Page 19-21}

Molly exclaimed, "Do you mean…"

Steed shook his head and quickly stated, "Maybe somewhere or another we might have heard a short mention of them." Steed asked, "What should we do to access the knowledge base?"

A large, flat screen monitor appeared out of the Ether. Luke asked, "Mirror, where is Napoleon III at?"

A voice answered, "In France in the 1800's. Best entrance approach, 1848."

Luke asked, "What other names might summon information on Napoleon III?"

A voice answered, "Information not allowed. "

Steed asked, "How did Napoleon III free himself from the ancient computer so that he is no longer a Thinkster?"

"The two you know as Gurdy and George freed him. They became Thinksters in the process."

Steed asked, "How did they free Napoleon III?"

"Time was shifted so that Thinkster Count of Flahaut was no longer his father. To insure that the change did not simply create an alternate time, Napoleon III was physically transported back in time to before his soul became born as Napoleon III. The Omega Soul Point must be brought back to the Alpha Soul Point of a given event so as to fully remove the event from spatial time."

Molly asked, "How was he physically transported back in time?"

The voice stated, "With reservations, that information may be allowed. Elisa Bonaparte, also known as Elysa Fougere, has begun monitoring your inquiry. She request that Luke allow her into his realm."

Luke stated, "Permission granted with greatest pleasure."

Elisa quickly transported inside of the realm. With a great booming sound, she projected beyond the Ether. Steed and Molly were both awed by her presence. The aura of leadership surrounded her in stature.

Elisa asked, "What is going on here? Luke, has someone finally entered your realm that considers intellect more important than having fun? These two aren't your normal party guest."

Steed stated, "We are trying to figure out how to help Gurdy and George become free from the ancient computer."

"What you mean to say is that you wish to erase the alternate path in spatial time? While the alternate path for my nephew was closed so that the event of his being a Thinkster was ended, the alternate path for Gurdy and George was created. There was no meeting of an alpha and omega."

Molly stated, "We are new to earth and our exploration of spatial time is limited."

Elisa smiled. "Well, time is a tricky business. Tricky indeed, but perhaps not so tricky for you since you've managed to allude Lucifer's gatekeepers. It has been a long time since I've happened onto such tricksters; two of Jason's chosen I suspect. Am I guessing correctly? Are you working with Jason?"

Steed answered, "And why would we be here if we had been chosen by anyone?"

Elisa laughed. "Oh yes. Sometimes I forget to be careful of who I confide with. It is good that you are not as careless as I, but still I will be careless and be trustful of you."

"Please do trust us. We want to help Gurdy and George."

Elisa shook her head. "But they don't need helping. At least not in the way you are suggesting." Elisa looked at Luke. "Now Luke, I trust these two without giving them warning but you I feel I must warn. What you learn from me this moment should never be taught by you without my permission."

Luke said, "I'll be over there and will not try to listen."

Elisa said, "No, stay. I want you to hear this. I want you to become a more learned soul. Understand that Gurdy and George exist as Thinksters in one path of parallel time, but also exist free from the computer on a different path of parallel time. They will alter the event of their becoming Thinksters when they so wish. They are among the few that we have been able to plant within Sitnalta. The free Gurdy and George are able to tap into the thoughts of the Thinkster Gurdy and George, but the Thinkster Gurdy and George do not have the slightest idea about their existence outside of the control of the computer."

Steed said, "So they don't need our help."

Elisa said, "Perhaps some help is needed. Our communication with the free Gurdy and George has not been often lately. There has been some suggestion within Fougere to whether the little information they have been giving us is even trustworthy. Since you have already concerned yourself with Gurdy and George and are somewhat familiar with their Thinkster path, we would much appreciate if you involve yourselves with them farther. If you discover they are holding information back from us, it would be helpful if you let us know about the information and any explanation of why they are holding the information back."

Molly frowned. "I'm not sure about what you are suggesting."

Elisa said, "I understand. It is up to you. But if you want to communicate with me about anything, just come to Luke's realm and use his knowledge base to contact me. It was really nice meeting the two of you. And Luke, I am glad you are definitely coming up in the world and making your realm useful for something besides trying to host the best Party."

Luke laughed. "Hey, I am proud of my Totally Bitching Parties."

Elisa stated, "I will be seeing you." And then she vanished into the Ether."

Luke said, "I suggest you investigate and see if there is a problem. If you don't want to do it for Elisa, then do it to see if Gurdy and George do need help."
