- Each coin (universe) has two sides. The explanation is actually simple if one gets the general concept, but it remains awkward to explain because you have to differentiate it from simply being a parallel universe.

- Magic blocking itself from Uryuoms

- Grace getting access to magic (indicating that uryuoms could use it again)

- All that stuff about projections (referenced in previous commentary, too)

- Ellen having special insights about greater projections (ditto). Tedd is, apparently, trying not to reveal his source (or that there even is a source).

- "There's magic on them, but they're not enchanted?"

Is panel three why I brought up Ellen's second life earlier? Mmmaybe.

Perception and Memory

How people perceive reality can be tricky, and it makes us pretty bad witnesses when something sudden and exciting happens. Hope would be a much better witness on average than us humans, but she could still make mistakes and perceive things in some flawed way.

Put another way, her memory of what she perceived might be perfect, but what she perceived might not have been completely accurate. Another point for the magic mirror.

Like that battle chess thing in Star Wars!

Figuring out panel two was tricky for me, but I was determined to clearly show that the memory as being half-sized and above the table. Projection Po looked pretty big on the previous page, but that was a trick of perspective (and tricksy me wanting to fill the panel).
