Changes

* It really wouldn't be surprising if more of these existed, [[Ward Shaw (The Sword)]] provided a psychic link to allow one such titan to project its [[Regeneration Core]] into its deep future, and during the battle with [[The Mad God]] other titans may have resorted to similar techniques, or been shattered into fragments that came to rest in or connected to other realities. Other massive organic entities have been encountered, such as the [[Dreamer On High]], or the organic entity in the series 'It Watched Us Play'. One interesting aspect of the [[Regeneration Core]] was its ability to affect the minds of many individuals from a considerable distance, in which it leaked its bitterness, pain and anger into the population. The vast collective apathy experienced by [[The First World]] may have been due to the loss of the [[Regeneration Core]], or even through the influence of another, similar core elsewhere on or near [[The First World]].

What is with the age differences? [[Cristina Thompson]] is in her early thirties, so if she has an adult daughter she must have met [[Conn Thompson]] as a child. Why do the ages of various versions of [[Laura Thompson]] seem to jump around?

* Hey, anything is possible here. Cristina may look early thirties, but with the advanced medical discoveries from the destruction of the [[Regeneration Core]] on [[The First World]], she may actually be somewhat older. Her personality indicates a mental age more typical of an older adult, with greater cynicism borne from experience. As for why different versions of Laura seem to vary in age anywhere from being a child to a young adult, this could be explained by differences between realities. As shown by the [[Temporal Bacteria]], temporal displacement can happen in one reality entirely independently of the other realities around it. As a result, anything from taking a different quantum decision branch to gravitational distortions since the birth of each universe may slightly alter the passage of time, leading to displacements in their respective time-lines of years, or even millennia.
