This is an interesting story. It moves backwards in history and then comes back to the present day. So there are in fact multiple stories and multiple settings. It offers us an explanation for how an historical site came into being.
The stories are fascinating but I do feel a little frustration as I become absorbed in one era / setting just as we move on to the next.
