At the center of all moments ticks the Chronometer—Mechanus’s clockwork heart, and the heart of time itself. God, realm, and relic are not merely linked; they are the same vast, divine mechanism, a single perfect engine forever advancing the sacred timeline. Mechanus stands eternal watch over the Chronometer, for to touch it is to tug at causality’s spine. In mortal hands, its power to halt, rewind, or rewrite time would fracture history into screaming paradoxes. Worse still, sustained abuse would unravel Mechanus himself—and when the Lord of Time dies, time follows. The final second would fall… and nothing would ever move forward again.
