I was just re-reading the novel The Quest Begins, the scene in the Forbidden Grove where Cutter unwraps Selah and Malak and they run off to conclude their lives which have been interruped by a time spent sleeping in wrapstuff. I have plumb forgotten (and my SABM and KOTBW are on loan to my niece's boyfriend right now), did we find out if they ever went back to Olbar again, even just for a visit? It strikes me that if they struck out on their own and never went back to Olbar's, they would never even know that they didn't just sleep the night. Then the World of Two Moons loses a Rip Van Winkle story :-) The other interesting thing is that you can't tell from the novel that they slept any longer than a single night. Olbar doesn't specify how long ago Selah ran away, the narrative doesn't specify either, so all you're left with is Petalwing's claim that "Bigthings been stillquiet here long time!"
