Despite Selina's determination, her mind failed to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem.

It wasn’t as if some grand, malevolent force was interfering with her thoughts. No, it was simply that the reason was so insignificant that she couldn’t remember it.

Something akin to the butterfly effect.

Just as a butterfly’s small flutter could summon a typhoon, some minor, seemingly trivial change had triggered this catastrophe.

But how could she possibly figure out which flap of the wings had caused the storm?

Still, Selina kept trying.

She spent an entire day staring at Ian, a character who hadn’t appeared in the original story. (Eventually, Ian had hunched his shoulders and asked, Did I do something wrong? before she finally let him go.)
