Right, now I remember. The elezen woman in the library had one with her. And you would claim that a carbuncle here did not disperse when the one who summoned it was drawn back into the waking world? I struggle to imagine how such a thing is possible. Unless...

Yes. Unless the discrepancies between aether and dreamotion energy converted it into a different sort of entity altogether, one unbeholden to the laws which would normally bind it to its creator.

[If that is the case, then it would absolutely be possible. With some rather fascinating possibilities besides.]

The problem? Small entities summoned forth here much like the carbuncles. Rather than dissipate, however, they seem to be evolving - albeit slowly.
