He was and yet he was not. He is and yet he is not. He’s to become and yet he will not. Returning to corporeal form, he’s seen more than any human. He’s seen himself come back sooner, come back later, never come back. The war, though years ago, yet to be, was just yesterday. Kasidy, his daughter, Jake, Dax, Kira, Bashir, O’Brien, all of them are here. Bajor is here. He knows which paths they should follow. He cannot interfere. It’s linear. He’s linear, now, again, always. He has to be again. It’s all The Prophets left him with.
