That's exactly what I was going to say, Colin. Tesilya could not have consented to go to India, and the Phillipines, and Canada, because she was only 5 at the time. However, in the interested of "being careful" she also did not go with her mother, as she stated that at the time, the Shiva Lila was concentrating on "breaking family bonds." She had completely lost touch with her mother by the time she got back to California and was reunited with Creek.
