But any act you can do 'now' can be *said* to be using a power. If I kill someone, I have invoked death. If I make love to someone, I have invoked the fertility power. If I have made a prophecy about a holy war that will engulf Dragon Pass in the near future, then I have invoked the fate rune. And so on. So your statement does not tell us *anything*.
So I repeat. What can I do *now* that I couldn't do *then*? And why does this require the _complete_ absense of time? Why couldn't it merely be a change in the nature of the Otherworld? What do you *mean* by invoking a power since by _your_ response to the sword story, the person does not have to necessarily know that he is invoking the power?
