Meeting a fellow traveler

I got a sense that another traveler was near one night.
I made a guess and headed to the local watering hole,
called The Woggler's Arms. He used the same logic. He
told me his name, Deeter Raumzeit. The time line he was
native to didn't sound familiar. He had been touring
the multiverse since discovering the mechanism, several
decades subjective. Lately Deeter was doing a study of
Saint Eckt. The world we were sitting in, drinking the
local beer, was the twenty-fifth reality he had explored
looking for Eckt's histories. "What makes one individual
prominent in so many threads?" I ask. Deeter thought
for a moment, "That's a central question" He answered.
"What makes one person different from another is largely
consistent among their threads" He continued, "So their
drives will be the same in differing circumstances. He
told me about worlds where Eckt never went near a Poly.
Worlds where he died early. In some Theads He lived to a
ripe old age as head of the church. The most interesting
to me was one scenario where Eckt married the milk maid
and told the Poly to spread its oun message. Deeter said
there was a thread where Eckt's sister ran off with one
of his younger disciples. "Did she practice the cycle of
Temptation?" I ask? Deeter laughed and said, "If she did
it was a series of very short cycles". "I thought Eckt
was happiest as a dairyman" Raumzeit said, "He was
known far and wide for the quality of his product". "And,
he sired ten children, all agnostics" he added, finishing
his beer. Well into the night we exchanged stories and
co-ordinates, threads of interest. I promised to look him
up if our paths crossed. This rarely happened, even the
worlds he and I could exist in were beyond infinite in
number.
