> Faite generally has to be careful with her power, because it only changes current time, not the past. That means, in this case, millions of people who have memory of being horribly burned to death or vaporized, and then suddenly it's like nothing happened. It would greatly increase the population at Herringcarp as many people can't deal with it. And that doesn't count the fact that "resetting" brings the possibility of it happening all over again.

The passer-by wouldn't get explanations and justifications. At best they'd be shown off the site, at worst charged with obstructing the course of justice.
> That depends on the cop, and the civilian. In this case, Lara is more like a reporter who shows up at a crime scene to get answers. Sometimes a cop gives a reason, sometimes he says get lost and threatens arrest. Lara got the latter.
> Though actually it's not much like a cop at all, really. It's more like a judge tossing Lara in jail because she shows up at a Legionnaire's trial to convince the judge to change his mind.

> Lara would definitely appreciate that. She would also appreciate if he manages to get an explanation, and see if the Chronicler can be convinced not to continually harass and try to destroy the Lair Legion. That last part is what Lara would be most worried about, and the only reason she would even think to try and de-throne him.

He's not really a ruler so much as a senior administrator, at the top of the heriarchy we saw a while back when Mumphrey was under investigation (although that was initiated by Symmetry).
> I meant only the Lair Legion portion, who always seems to have an identity crisis when it comes to relating to humans. It might decide that humans perceive it as female, I should say.

You need to convince Chris of that.
