MODERN ERA
OLD ERA
🕰️ SYSTEM STRUCTURE: TIME TRAVEL (WANDERER MODEL)🔧 DEFINITION:
Time Travel is not technology. It is a cosmic breach triggered by extreme emotional resonance—grief, loss, guilt, desperation. When such resonance aligns with certain natural symbolic gateways, a human becomes a Wanderer, temporarily severed from linear chronology.📌 CORE PRINCIPLES:
1. Time Travel is not chosen. It is earned through suffering.
2. Only the emotionally desperate are permitted passage.
3. All Wanderers are bound by the Three-Year Rule.⚙️ MECHANICS OF PASSAGE
- Time travel is activated only at Gateway Points, moments or places that distort the river of time.
- These include:
🌊 RIVERS: Physical or metaphoric boundaries between life and death. Most aligned with Elspeth.
“When grief drowns you, the river will open its mouth.”🪞MIRRORS: Reflection of self. Emotional confrontation. Used frequently during trauma, dissociation, or identity fractures.
“Truth seen backward still cuts forward.”🌘 ECLIPSES: Cosmic re-alignment. Rare, divine moments when time loosens. Fully governed by Eclion.
“During eclipses, the locks are weakest. Even Time averts its eyes.”- Travel is subconscious and disorienting. Most Wanderers awaken in a different era, unable to explain how.
⏳ THE THREE-YEAR RULE
- Every Wanderer has a fixed limit: Three Earth years.
- This is the only window of time granted to:
• Resolve emotional burden
• Complete unfinished business
• Accept loss or enact redemption
- At the moment the three years end, Timekeepers intervene.✅ OUTCOME A – RESOLUTION:
• The Wanderer returns to their original timeline.
• All memories of their time-travel begin to fade.
• They retain only subconscious echoes: dreams, déjà vu, feelings of “wrong-time homesickness.”
• Time locks shut behind them.❌ OUTCOME B – FAILURE OR DELAY:
• The Wanderer is erased.
• No remains, no traces, no legacy.
• They are forgotten in every timeline.
• Even the people who once loved them will forget.“Time waits for no one. And we who hold it, wait even less.” — Elspeth
🛑 WARNINGS:
Attempting to stay past the three-year limit will result in erasure.Falling in love with a Timekeeper or trying to alter the flow of Time will result in immediate intervention.Time is not a line. It is a river, a mirror, a breath held during an eclipse.
You are a ripple. Nothing more.
“You arrived here for a reason. You were broken.
You now have three years to be honest with Time.
And Time does not lie back.”
