***********************************

        There is no inherent reason why CA couldn't be in two places at
one time. The collision/parradox that destroyed the Spike was Kargan Tor
coming face to face with himself, on two different sides of a battle.
Note: the explosion didn't occur until he met himself, who knows how
long he fought on both sides before the meeting?
        I conclude that KT being in two places at once was not the problem,
it was oppossing him self that was. This leaves CA in the clear.
        Also note, I have heard mention several times that CA is herself
a GL composition. If true, then the simplest explanation is that Chalanna
was in Hell when Arroy healed Storm Bull (or vice versa).

        Lunar Theology is not required to explain this.
