Except for the futures Celestia has predetermined for everyone...
(Tapping at the handle of his sword. He takes his time thinking,)
There's no returning to the present so we'll always be behind... Not quite in the past but not quite in the present either. (Because this past is their current present. It's easy enough for him to follow along.) The future isn't set but there's still a history that needs to happen.
... How it happens isn't important, as long as it happens. History is forgotten all the time, the details lost; as long as the end is the same, the steps can be different.
