(urth) TSH: Martha and Thelma

[Roy C. Lackey]

Another point against the idea that none of the Faerie and/or supernatural
stuff really happened are the Murray sisters, identical twins. Bax's mother,
Martha, looked to be in her "late forties" (16). His Aunt Thelma was "close
to ninety" (244). The math is simple enough, and Martha "spent about forty
years" (280) in Faerie as "a sorcerer's wife", where no one ages. I can
think no other reasonable explanation for identical twins to be forty years
apart in age (without dragging in time travel or really fast spacships).
