Okay, so in A Hole in the World, Drogyn said that to save Fred, he could make a spell that would cause Illyria's essence to, what, go across the entire world to get to the Deeper Well, killing thousands of people? Okay, so Angel and Spike have their hands tied... Except, wait. No, they don't. Can't they just bring Fred to the Well and THEN do the spell, so that Illyria's essence can't cut through anyone and kill them? Or is that not possible for some reason?  Because, honestly, this has been eating me up. I know Joss wanted Fred dead, but couldn't he have made saving her more impossible, considering I'm sure people have figured out this method?! |

If I'm not mistaken it was time sensitive deal.
Had they brought Fred with them in the first place it would have been possible. But since they left her in LA by the time they'd get her to the Well Illyria would have resurface anyway.

Good catch. It doesn't make much sense, does it? I'm trying to fanwank it, but I cn't come up with a good explanation. Even if they thought(maybe Wesley called) that she was very clode to death, they could have tried by putting her on a plane anyway. |

I still feel like it was just something Joss overlooked, which is irritating to me, since he's pretty much God in Buffyverse. |
