Ixy looked back at Eski. "I don't know. I never thought of that, but it
seems like a possibility. If these lapses occur too often, then one who 
is either aware or unaffected by them could become a master thief. Or 
kidnapper, for that matter. This poses another question: who can resist 
these time shifts. What allows people like us to resist, while others," Ixy
gestures towards many of the immobile patrons of the Inn, "are locked in
stasis?
  "I am going to again try to get through to one of the others, don't worry,
I think I can avoid the trap, now that I know it is here." He began again
to concentrate on seeing into the minds of the others, whose thoughts, he 
just started to notice were also incredibly slow, if they had any at all.
