Kronia Bound

Before there was any sense of time, there were two brothers named Prometheus and Epimetheus. Prometheus held the power of Forethought, and his brother held the power of Afterthought. When Zeus punished Prometheus for giving fire to mankind, the great Titan of Forethought was bound to a mountain, where he underwent daily suffering. However, having been saved by the great hero Heracles, Prometheus sought out a partner. He met one of the Three Fates, with whom he had a daughter. Prometheus prophesied that his daughter would possess the Element of Time, and that she would conquer an evil deity of doom: the god named Moros.

Prometheus raised his daughter with confidence so that she would overcome this deity. Prometheus knew that Moros would rise up in power and attempt to rule the very universe with his own Element: the Element of hellfire, that which is Nether. His power of Forethought ran deep within his daughter. Because Kronia had the Element of Time, she could time travel, reverse time as she pleased, pause time, and demonstrate a variety of different abilities. She grew to be powerful, and her father said that she would overcome a dark entity. Moros must be killed by kronia, or else the universe will suffer. When Kronia was of age, Prometheus had fate in his daughter. He know that Kronia was able to conquer many evil things. When she was without her father, Kronia fought against the Furies of Hades and fought against all evil spirits.

One day, Kronia was roaming the mountain where Prometheus was bound. She examined the chains which had once bound his arms to the rock. When she reached the summit, she was visited by an apparition: it was the spirit of Moros.

"Good evening," Moros said with a hiss. Kronia drew her sword. He smiled malevolently. "I see that you are prepared to kill me, yet I am intangible  and of the immaterial. Surely, you would be wiser than that."

"If only you were tangible!" Kronia exclaimed. "Then I would have you killed in an instant!"

"The god of doom manifests himself in various ways, Kronia. May it be that I never disappear from your future!" Moros then disappeared. Kronia, having been terribly frightened, made herself firm in her words.

"If only you may disappear from me presently!" Kronia raised her sword to the sky. "He must be destroyed!"

Kronia then traveled through the void of the celestial world above, which is known as the Aether, and searched the planets for the evil entity named Moros. When, at last, she found him, he was in such a fury that his eyes stared her down with the face of death. The daughter of Prometheus stared at him with ire. However, he immediately left in an instant, leaving Kronia behind with no one to fight. Having been abandoned by her adversary, Kronia decided to battle another day. She slept and dreamt. She dreamt such disturbing dreams, that she aroused in a fright. She had seen Moros himself, who had fought her with a sword. She had seen the fall of her father, yet there were unrecognizable figures whom she had never seen. They fought on her side, and she believed that she would eventually meet them. At some point, the battle between the light and the dark must ensue, and Kronia knew that the ultimate defeat of Moros would come. How? If only she knew how.

Because her father was prophetic, Kronia knew that her Element of Time allowed her to see into the future. She thought that her dreams will somehow turn into reality. She reminisced for a while, but then she felt something brush against her shoulder. She turned around so that she might see the figure, and it was none other than the elusive Moros. Kronia drew her sword, and so did Moros. They fought most boldly. Moros attempted to kill Kronia, but she was able to dodge all of his blows. Kronia knew that she could win, provided that she deal some deathly blow to her adversary.

As the two dueled, Kronia knew what she had to do. She took out her pocket watch that her father gave her.

"Moros, may you never harm me ever again!" Kronia turned the time forward. She smiled confidently. She thought that she could evade Moros by jumping into the future. However, he warned her.

"I said that I would harm you in the future. Let it be as such! You travel to the future so that you may be harmed! You will be the cause of your own demise." With that, Kronia saw his figure fade away in the darkness. She looked around and saw nothing. She closed her eyes as she seemed to leave in oblivion. However, she knew subconsciously that she was moving to some new realm of existence to evade what would have been her inevitable fall. An alternate reality.

Time flies, but only those who are bound to it feel truly its pain. Moros will return. The light may turn to darkness, but the darkness can always be overpowered by the light.
