The Valar announce that they've done as much as they can in Singularity (they can't bring back peoples' babies in that critical period either, but they can get them earlier versions) and are setting up portals between there and Sanity as soon as they are confident they've cleaned up the plague. A bunch of Elf architects have this wild idea for a fivedimensional city where alternating intersections are interdimensional portals between various Valinors and they get eagerly to setting it up.

"It's probably public record, right - let me write my Sanity alt -" will Valar cooperate with war crimes trial for Cam (+ me?) and with disproving local religion -

"It's fine. I'll ask someone else. Where do you want to go while we're waiting to hear back from the Valar?"
