The power to manipulate time came with its own costs. Time itself felt like a fluid concept in his mind—bendable and twistable at his will, but unstable. Every use came with an unintended consequence. Aranter's power grew, but his emotions, too, became unpredictable.
He soon found himself facing a being even more formidable than himself—an entity of darkness from another plane, whose presence warped the very fabric of existence. In the face of this being, Aranter could feel the full extent of his evolution's potential but also the limits of his current self.
With everything on the line, Aranter harnessed his full power.
Available Evolution Choices:
Mastery of Darkness
Spatial Regeneration
Mastery of Time and Space
Finally, Aranter chose the ultimate power: Mastery of Time and Space. He manipulated not just time but also the very structure of the battlefield, warping the fabric of reality itself. He knew this battle would not end easily. With this choice, Aranter embraced the true force of the universe—manipulating everything around him with godlike control.
But with this power came the realization of something more profound: Every power has a price. The more he altered the flow of time, the more distorted the world became, and the further he found himself from the original self he once was.
