Across time, Amser Modred had seen many things and many people.
He lived in time as others lived in space, moving through moments the way lesser beings moved through rooms. He had witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations that most Absolutes only read about in archives. He had observed the births of beings who would become legends and the deaths of those who believed themselves immortal. He knew the true faces of those who wore masks across eons.
He knew THE Living Paradox, had watched that being's machinations unfold across timelines that twisted and folded upon themselves with complexity that bordered on beautiful.
He knew THE Creature, had observed that ancient wonder consuming and growing in patterns that revealed patience exceeding comprehension.
He couldn't say he knew THE Primordial Chaos as well, but that was because Chaos resisted the kind of temporal observation that worked on others.
But he knew those who were powerful and those who were not.
