I absolutely love Shelby, man she is evil. Reminds me of Synestra in my own story, just absolutely heartless and cruel and demented... Just my kind of giantess ;)

This answered all of my questions at least, it does seem to implement time manipulation somehow, and though I may not get a clear answer it is enough for everything to fall into place.

It seems the next chapter is the last, and admittedly, I've wasted my work time reading this because I've become absolutely infatuated with this story... And though I feel bad for Brian and hope he finds a way to survive, I also kinda like the idea of Shelby devouring him mercilessly xD
