Chroniscent

Set only years before the events of Dominic's story, Aevum believed his natural-born command over time could achieve the impossible. He could absorb every secret within a grimoire and survive to tell the tale. But when he touched the Grimoire of Threads, the torrent of timelines crashed into him, nearly shattering his mind.

To survive, his powers flared uncontrollably and hurled him into a future far beyond his comprehension. He awoke in a city of neon and steel, where towering skyscrapers hummed with drones, augmented humans blurred the line between man and machine, and corporations wielded power stronger than any crown. Reality itself felt unstable, fragments of timelines flickered like glitches, and time bent unpredictably around him.

Displaced and hunted by forces he did not yet understand, corporate interests, rogue AIs, and those attuned to temporal anomalies, Aevum had to navigate a world where knowledge was both weapon and curse, and every decision, every action, could ripple across countless futures. To survive, he has to outthink mortals, anticipate technology, and master powers that now strains his mind with every use. Time itself becoming both his ally and his adversary.
