In the Danellian timeline, Lorenzo de Conti neither kills Roger II nor marries Ilaria di Gaetani. A quantum fluctuation in Lorenzo's brain causes him to attack Roger II at Rignano, thus initiating the Alpha timeline. When Manse Everard averts that timeline, another quantum fluctuation in Lorenzo's brain causes him to accept betrothal to Ilaria, thus initiating the Beta timeline. When Everard, while averting this second divergence, accidentally kills Lorenzo, the latter's death prevents his brain from generating a Gamma timeline. Consequently, reality reverts to the Danellian timeline. Does that account finally bring together the two levels of description of reality?

Kaor, Paul! As I've suggested elsewhere, I don't think there was something in Lorenzo's brain or mind which caused him to unwittingly become a personal causal nexus. Ad astra! Sean
