She may as well ask why the sun shines. Which, of course, humans have done because they are infinitely stupid.
"But here you do not know me." she says and something that seems obvious in retrospect falls into places. She glances back in the direction of the lighthouse, now obscured by trees. "When they ordered the world, things that were cut away weren't lost. This is one of the things that happened." she realizes, turning back to Sam and Leo. "It split!"
