See , this is a point of curiosity for me as well . If you take the interpretation of the Dawn where everything is happening in a simultaneous fashion , wouldn ' t that imply that Convention begins in the same blinkinstant the Dragon breaksWell , outside of kalpic time , yes . That ' s how I imagine dragon breaks enable the retroactive divinity trick you can exit linear time from the break and join the crowd at convention . Then historians inside time look back and history and suddenly discover that you were there all along ! Inside kalpic time though the sequence of events is still protected between breaks , which prevents collapse . If you imagine the kalpa as a pipe with time flowing along it , then a dragon break is a break in the pipe but the intact sections still function as pipes . Sort of anyway . Or is that concept to heavily relying in a directional modality to properly grasp the nature of exoNirnic timelessness , where sequence is just too darn alien to properly describe ? I always imagine it as a place where instead of three spatial and one temporal dimension , there are four spatial ones . But I don ' t think we really can imagine it properly . I just try and play flatland games in my head to see if I can get an idea of how it might work .
