Due to her strange relationship with the timeline, she receives glimpses of the future. But this temporal perception also makes her feel isolated from the world around her. She's completely relinquished her identity as Polly Stone, and is now only Shimmerstorm. | Due to her strange relationship with the timeline, she receives glimpses of the future.
