PARA/DOX
Time itself never leaves, and each moment of humanity is stamped upon the surface of the earth to play like a film, overlapping upon its predecessor and getting squished by the next second to pass.

With such power, the race not only to see the past, but to enter it, spurs conflict and consequences beyond anyone's wildest expectations. JohnlockComplete
