wisdom begins in wonder
You shake your head, but suppose there's a non-zero chance that perhaps the barrier was in fact an opportunity for eugenics. But... "Wouldn' that go against the idea of non-biased observation? An' nature demonstratin' free will an' stuff?" It seems to you that if Frey has been doing exactly what Oia keeps telling you not to do - interfere - it's a little bit...
Not unfair, but something close to it.
The explanation makes some sense, and you make a point to commit it to memory so she doesn't have to explain it again (she probably will). "So are the heralds gonna answer everyone's prayers now, d'ya think? Even the ones not in the Grounds?" It seems like an awful lot of work, but then again perhaps with the barrier down other beings will move in to assist. Maybe there are genies living within even now.
The sound of rushing water interrupts your thoughts, the blood-tinged waterfall coming into view from behind the trees. "Oh, 'I'o, look!" you gasp excitedly, unable to contain your enthusiasm for the sight. "Wow! No wonder the herald likes it so much! Lookit all the lichen- wow!" Running into the smooth stones at the river's edge, you spin rapidly, trying to take it all in.
