ditto.  Perhaps a privileged unborn soul who happens to know her next
posting.

Aliera seems to know quite a bit about the history of her soul and of
Vlad's, and can recognize Vlad's.

So at least some souls there seem to be more generally aware than others,
although Aliera has yet to recognize Devera.  (Pity, since everyone else
seems to know who she is.)

So I agree - none of that evidence requires time travel.

However, I thought I remembered some indication of movement in time.  I
don't have a reference.

We have the different time streams in the different places in Issola.

And we have the definition of gods and demons as beings who can be several
places at once.  Implying at least some freedom from the causality
constraints that seem to limit the rest of us, and in fact all known matter
in this neck of the woods.  ;<)
