Everything that goes around comes around, they say, and although I've never been able to figure out who the mysteriously wise sages known as they might be, they're certainly right when it comes to time-travel.

Life was such a wheel that no man could stand upon it for long. And it always, at the end, came round to the same place again.

Time continued to pass - the oldest trick in the world, and maybe the only one that really is magic.
