Ellayania still has a spare avatar at Meridia's library. She can forward the request.

Meridia would welcome him in her Realm at any time if he wishes to visit, though leaving is an effort for her.

Ellayania passes this along.

"Perhaps after we have addressed the problems with Naraka's world."

"I can give you - and anyone else who wants to geek out with Meridia - a lift!"

He nods. "That would be appreciated."

"I'll pass."

"I'll go along. Interdimensional godly libraries sound like my jam. After we kill this Zetsu, of course."

"Of course."

Things lapse into mostly silence until Tentou returns through one of her portals -

Bringing someone who is, to those who can sense it, apparently an alt of Darth Animus - though he's more divergent than the Ellies are from each other, closer to Meridia - and who looks an awful lot like Meridia, albeit male and not rainbow-colored.

"Another alt, it seems."

"Of Meridia? I see the resemblance."

"And Meridia is my alt as well," Animus says, regarding Tobirama.

"Your chakra signature is fairly similar to mine."

...Huh.

"Seems we've found a new... template, I suppose."

"Cool! I wonder who else repeats?"

"Who else interesting is probably a better question."

"Perhaps. Though I can't think of many other notable people - certainly individuals that have been important in one life or another, but not necessarily patterns."

"If they're really interesting, we'll find them sooner or later."

"I suppose. Events do seem to be conspiring that way, don't they?"

"Especially given the latest round of finds."

"I'm quite delighted with whoever's arranging most of this."

"I think we all feel similarly."
