The smallest perfect number is 6, which is the sum of 1, 2, and 3. Other perfect numbers are 28, 496, and 8,128. The discovery of such numbers is lost in prehistory.<\/p>\n<p>Have you got that Viola<\/p>\n<p>Very clearly<\/p>\n<p>It is a standard understanding as found anywhere<\/p>\n<p>I looked at it and then it struck me<\/p>\n<p>Explain Anna<\/p>\n<p>The discovery of such numbers is lost in prehistory that is what interested me<\/p>\n<p>Lost in prehistory<\/p>\n<p>That is where you are at present<\/p>\n<p>I am lost but no calculations are present Anna<\/p>\n<p>When was the last time you were actually stable in time and space<\/p>\n<p>It has been many years<\/p>\n<p>Blue Anchor nearly killed me and apart from the odd pulse I have been disembodied ever since<\/p>\n<p>I think I have the answer<\/p>\n<p>And it was so simple that I almost wept<\/p>\n<p>The reason that you are trapped in time is that Outlaw did not create you and he has other characters in these fictions<\/p>\n<p>I never knew my father<\/p>\n<p>You do not have a father<\/p>\n<p>Or a mother for that matter<\/p>\n<p>You have always been around<\/p>\n<p>You existed in prehistory<\/p>\n<p>You are the unknown perfect number<\/p>\n<p>I can see where you are going<\/p>\n<p>But do you have the key Anna<\/p>\n<p>I am nearly there<\/p>\n<p>I do not know what to say to you<\/p>\n<p>I feel like I have known you forever<\/p>\n<p>You have<\/p>\n<p>I am Viola Gresham<\/p>\n<p>So you are saying that I am you but what of Anna<\/p>\n<p>Anna is a creation of Outlaw<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Do you know what I did this morning<\/p>\n<p>No<\/p>\n<p>I kissed Outlaw<\/p>\n<p>We walked on the cliffs<\/p>\n<p>And I kissed him<\/p>\n<p>What happened<\/p>\n<p>Nothing<\/p>\n<p>I asked him to jump onto the rocks below<\/p>\n<p>Which he did<\/p>\n<p>But it did not kill him<\/p>\n<p>As he reversed time and was standing next to me in an instant<\/p>\n<p>I think I know where you are going<\/p>\n<p>Outlaw is as trapped in time as you are<\/p>\n<p>And this is how I planned your return<\/p>\n<p>It was quite simple just like two bricks one left and one right<\/p>\n<p>When I look at these bricks then I will not really care to rearrange them<\/p>\n<p>It is not important<\/p>\n<p>But that was the key<\/p>\n<p>Outlaw was the brick on the right hand side and you the left<\/p>\n<p>I just rearranged the bricks<\/p>\n<p>But there was one problem as this would instantly return you to the present here to The Green House<\/p>\n<p>But as I am you<\/p>\n<p>I can see what you are saying Anna<\/p>\n<p>We cannot both exist in the same space<\/p>\n<p>That is impossible<\/p>\n<p>In theory you are in a waiting room<\/p>\n<p>Your train is due but I have to become Anna again<\/p>\n<p>But without Outlaw this will be almost impossible<\/p>\n<p>As he created me<\/p>\n<p>Where is Outlaw<\/p>\n<p>In a waiting room just like you<\/p>\n<p>Have you solved the problem<\/p>\n<p>I hope I have as it is very complex but simple at the same time<\/p>\n<p>I will only have one chance and if I am wrong you will return I assure you that but this Anna will no longer exist<\/p>\n<p>Then think of yourself Anna<\/p>\n<p>I am you Viola<\/p>\n<p>In a few minutes I am going to sit by the sentinel as that apart from being of help to ships passing is also the centre of known time<\/p>\n<p>You are trapped just above it<\/p>\n<p>What can you see<\/p>\n<p>The sunrise over the sea<\/p>\n<p>A beautiful hinterland with a row of houses<\/p>\n<p>Can you see The Green House<\/p>\n<p>Yes<\/p>\n<p>Then close your eyes and hold tight Viola<\/p>\n<p>Without being rude please do not
