Ah, the speculation about Esk's son and how it might fit in with the events of Thief of Time does not appear to have survived the Move from the "Store" to the current "Quarry". This Nome may well come back and re-write it when he isn't so much in need of his bed...AgProv (talk) 01:38, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Summary:

Think of who else could be in the frame as the female incarnation of Time. One who has learnt to walk up and down the timelines at will. (and where did she learn this, and who from?) One who knew, because she had been born in Lancre and apprenticed to Granny Weatherwax, exactly where to go to find the world's best midwife, Nanny Ogg. One who, when she re-appears in the series in "I shall wear Midnight", explains that she has a son she must take care of...It would also explain her disappearing from the world - or apparently so - for so long and not being involved in the Sourceror business.AgProv (talk) 09:41, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

I don't know why she'd have chosen to be born in Bad Ass so recently, but there is the point that she should only be thirty-eight to forty years old as of I Shall Wear Midnight according to our best guesses in the Timeline. She seems to have aged more than necessary, like Mightily Oats. All the time travel may have left her physical manifestation a bit confused. --Old Dickens (talk) 02:33, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
