# Chronos - The Time Distortion Realm
|
|
|
|
*A world where time flows differently in every region, creating temporal paradox civilizations*
|
|
|

---
|
|
|
|
## World Overview
|
|
|
|
**Environment**: Temporal anomaly zones with different time flow rates
|
|
**Core Theme**: Time is currency, memory is power, causality is optional
|
|
**Time Mechanics**: Past, present, and future exist simultaneously in different regions
|
|
**Reality**: Cause and effect operate on temporal politics rather than linear logic
|
|
|
|
**The Fundamental Reality**: On Chronos, yesterday's enemies might be tomorrow's children, and planning for the future requires knowing the past that hasn't happened yet. Time isn't linear - it's political.
