The Aethelgard Paradox - Core System Always on eosoria aethelgard paradox world overview timeline the loop
Recall Range: 4
The Aethelgard Paradox describes Eosoria: a continent trapped in a repeating, closed time loop. Driven by a massive, underground machine, the world works on a strict system of debt. When the world engine breaks down or gets clogged by Abaddon's entropic black ink, the Goddess Aethelgard resets the timeline. This reset completely wipes mortal memories, repairs broken continents, and rewinds geography. Because the engine loses efficiency with every cycle, each consecutive loop is shorter than the last. Fused clockwork ruins, temporal scars, and SSS-Rank anomalies who remember dead loops persist as permanent, un-erasable bugs in the bedrock of Eosoria.
