Time
In a well built and ordered Universe time flows like a river. It has a beginning, it has an end. Every moment is preceded by another just as every moment is followed by another. These moments are strictly defined as to which follows which. Such a universe can be described as a mechanical clock. Tick after tock moments follow other moments from the beginning of time until its end.
But there are places where the universe is wapred and time is not a river anymore. Imagine an hourglass. Each turning of the hourglass measures one hour. Each grain of sand is a moment in time. In the warped universe it is impossible to tell which grain will follow another or when will it happen. In these places where the universe is wapred there is no past, present or future. At any moment a grain from the past may follow a grain from the future resulting in utter confusion in the simple human being which has had the misfortune to be in such a place when this phenomenon occurs. Visions from the past mixed with omens of the future, all taking place in the halls of the present. Such an experience is beyond a simple mind.
But in those places, where time has no beginning and no end, lies tremendous power for those who can harness and control it. In such places a simple gesture, a simple wave of the hand, may change the fate of entire galaxies. There ar beings wielding such power in out own ordered universe. They will never reveal themselves and generations after generations may pass without even knowing about them. But they are here and they shape our fate even if we cannot understand it…
