[Set to right after the explosion.] You- the ship! There's something happening to the ship.

[He's sounding panicked. About as panicked as he was when Frostmourne was on the loose.] The old girl! She's scared! I can hear it! I need to- Admiral! Take me back at once! Admiral please!

They're eating it alive!.

[Private to the Admiral | Text]

Please send Rex somewhere else. Please let him leave. I don't ask for him. I ask for all the people he's been harming. Please just allow it, let the world be his salvation.

It's... it's a very long story.

[One involving terrible acts, things that his older selves did that he desperately wants to escape. His entire reason for being here. He wants to be his own man, to be separate from what he'll become.

But is it so much a part of him that he can't escape it?

He offers his arm.] I'd like to learn more about what happens to yours, anyway.

All right. I'm just a little worried, but I won't be too terribly nosy about it.

[She takes his arm after a moment's hesitation.]

When we die our minds project into the future and we visit with our Ascended Selves. The people we are going to be when we perfect our power and our insight. They teach us something and we come back with more of the Package unwrapped.

[He focuses on what she's talking about. It's easier.] Ascension? That's something that my people are capable of.

[Something he's almost done.]

How close are you?

I...

[She chews her lip again.] I'm closer than the others but I think I need to die a few more times first. It is a little like reincarnation but we do it all in one body.

I don't want to go too fast if there's any other way of helping Britain. I would like to stay and teach people. If I become my Higher Self I can only reach back to the me I am now. I can't act easily on my own.
