Little Sister Greenaway fell and fell. She fell untethered to concepts like distance or time. She fell untethered to any reference point at all. She fell, losing her memories of anything but of falling. Oh, but no, she sees at last, angels falling with her. And the thought of angels brings her back to the present, to Faction Paradox, to Nate. She can't catch the angels, but she traces back their origin and falls down to there, to a home built of old memories. Inside she finds an angel, or the flea faced creature who called itself one, who falls upon her, attacking her. She fights it off, and the two call a truce, after it insists that it, personally, didn't wish to kill Nate.

The creature proclaims itself a pilot, a creature from humanity's future, and is distressed to learn that Faction Paradox has noticed their meddling. The pair exchange information, and they come to the understanding that Nate Silver exists when he shouldn't, that war powers have tampered with his biodata but he himself is nothing special, nothing unusual. And as they talked, Greenaway came to a decision. The pilot was unable to leave, not having a corporeal form, but she named him the patron saint of pilots, [[Erasmus]], and they made a pact, him riding her body as a loa.

The pair of them leave the conceptual space together, Greenaway finding herself stranded in a snowbank where the rest of her cell pick her up not long after. Days pass as she heals, unable to speak or move, her comrades initiating her into their ranks as a Cousin. At long last when she's able to form words she shares with her family the most important fact of what her and Erasmus has realized. "It's from the Homeworld!"
