There were gates to realms Helios had never dreamed existed, and they beheld myriads of unique creatures and spirits. Some of the observations seemed to be in natural time, while others were revealed in highly modified time.

The entire process of a galaxy coming into existence, was observed in what seemed to be a brief instant, yet Helios felt outside of the constraints of time as he had known it before.

In another observation, time was greatly expanded, so that what had first appeared as an instantaneous explosion was transformed into a clearly visible series of harmonic interactions that seemed to go on and on like an eternal song rather than a momentary event.
