::: From their treatment in the stories, it seems as if fixed points must be relative to a time traveller, and they must stay preserved so that a true paradox is not created.

It was eventually resolved in the same way that Lake Silencio was - the two poles of the disturbance had to meet, and complete something like the original version of events.--[[User:ComicBookGoddess|ComicBookGoddess]] [[User talk:ComicBookGoddess|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 06:27, April 23, 2013 (UTC)
