"My child, gaze upon the stars in the sky as you soar through the night
You see them as they were, because of the limited speed of light.
It took a true genius to realize the fundamental truth
You know, he was born in the same country that I lived in my youth
In physics, the speed of light limits all things in the Universe
Nothing can go faster in speed in the cosmos they all traverse
This value is a constant, nothing with rest mass can reach that speed."
"When I fly, grandpa, I'm too busy looking for the fruit I need."
"Still a pup, thinking of simple things like food and not getting hurt"
"If I fly into a tree I don't want to crash into the dirt."
"The stars you see are how they looked in the past, do you understand?"
"Yeah, but make this lesson more interesting, it is kind of bland."
"Going very quickly will even make the flow of time slow down."
"Is that how SciFi spaceships I see on TV shows all get around?"
"I think they go to subspace, or bend space itself around the ship
For that way, years don't go by back home on Earth when they make the trip."
"What about that strange place I went to go from cave to mountain's peak?"
"Science hasn't really studied that other realm of which you speak.
Few know that it exists, let alone if our laws of physics hold.
That Infraspace you went to, hide it from all you have not yet told."
"Because who knows what sort of power one can obtain from that place?"
"Yes, for wicked people could claim it, that is exactly the case."
"Could I go there and then fly so fast I can travel back in time?"
"I have no idea, but don't attempt to stop any great crime.
I read enough to know killing that wolf whose name I dare not say
Would cause unknowable changes that would destroy the present day."
"You know I don't kill people, and why think that is what I would change?"
"That is what they do in stories, it is so common it isn't strange.
If you tried that you would cause some sort of grandfather paradox
If he had not been in power, we would not have fled in great flocks."
"And if you hadn't fled your homeland, I would have never been born."
"That is exactly the thing against which I was trying to warn."
