"She was a saint in another world," Sydonie explained. "Her followers were begining to believe she was holy. This troubled the government, so they locked her up. She was supposed to be executed, but we knew if she were enough of her followers would be angry and grieved enough that the religion they'd form would be an angry, violent one too. So we came and took her from her cell before she was executed. Her followers believed it was a miracle from a gracious god, and the religion they founded was peaceful instead."

None of this made much sense to Jeffery, whose own world, as Sydonie had pointed out, had no real religion. But apparently this woman was somewhat lonely in the world they had put her in, and welcomed the chance to raise a baby for a year or two.
"Then she'll be sent back to her own world," said Sydonie. "She has a fate there."
"This ticket entitles the bearer to a one-world shift."
