AtD question

[Mike Jing]

I haven't touched AtD for a while and may have forgotten, but I don't
remember such a "teletransportation" taking place anywhere in the book. As
far as I can tell, Kit met Dally by chance on his way back from the Far
East, and they went back to Italy together and got married. But they
eventually separated and Dally went to live in Paris, while Kit remained in
Italy.
