TIME
L ife cannot fully grasp the great
unknowns of how higher realms
function. In the lower dimensions,
chronal sequence dictates how life
operates. Events unfold in an ordered
flow—but the structure is tenuous, open
to manipulation. Time can be endlessly
reordered, but no aspect or iteration of
linear existence is, or can ever be, lost.
In an eternity of infinitudes, every
possibility and timestream is real and
connected in the incomprehensible
creational reservoir of Hypertime.
