I wonder if Elspeth's range exercises affect her dreaming.

Someone in the village would have noticed before this point if the range exercises made her dreams leak other than through her hands via touch.

Jake, specifically. Never mind that one.

Well, not Jake so much, since while Elspeth is asleep he's usually watching her dreams deliberately, or is asleep himself. But the next-door neighbors might have been up late and gone "huh, what's that?"

Rereading, though: she was only started range exercises the day before they fled ... and then she fell asleep in a car and in a plane with Addy present and not touching, so yeah, it would have been noticed.

Though, didn't Addy say that Elspeth still thinks of her power as touch-based even after she is capable of range?

Maybe she needs to think of her power as ranged on a more instinctual, subconscious level before she begins broadcasting her dreams as she sleeps.
