Yes.

But she actually did research it....or maybe Mr. Button could be involved.

She just did it to find Barti...I can't really see her becoming a history teacher or researching for the fun of it. She sounded kinda annoyed with that kind of stuff

Yes, yes.

We all know I'm holding on so that she'll be brought back into the picture. However, her outlook might change now that she's "old" and "sernely calm".

Yes.

I think in the book it was described a bit different, but they used serene and calm.

I just happened to have the third book with me, here's the exact words:
wrote: Yet, by the same token, neither had she felt so sure of herself as she did now. Often in the past she had been filled with reckless certainty, with joyful confidence in her youth and vigor. This was not like that. It was a calmer feeling, quieter, entirely unconnected with physical things, and lacking the edfiness they tended to involve.
Or something of the sort. A few little things might be slightly changed from typos or something. meh

I got that from where she went into that place to free the tied up magicians. (She was already old then.)

that's wierd how your body gets messed up by the other [place...

Well, it's a foreign place on a weak body. (Comparing to spirits.) It's harsh on it.

I don't think so.

It makes sense if your soul leaves your body you start dying. As when you die your soul leaves your body.

According to most people.

Just like when Bart comes on Earth it hurts his essence , so when humans go to the Other Place they start to die.
Hmmmm, does that mean that if Kitty stays in our world then her essence or lifeforce will recharge, or words to that effect?

I think she'll get her strength and some of her youngness back.

Didn't Nat say she wasn't as bad as she looked at first? (Maybe he was just consoling her.)

But I don't think she'll ever reclaim her youth, just like Bartimaeus never got the powerful energy back that he began with until he was summoned inside Nat.

Yes, she had forgotten how to use the material world, but she got better, it's lioke a spirit going to the other place to heal.

If Barti got his strength back when he was in Nat, maybe he can help Kitty as well

He might.

If Kitty summons him, that is.
