"A spatial jump is trivial when compared to the unknowns of time travel. One is like sliding along the ice, whilst the other is akin to descending blindly into the depths of the freezing water and reappearing as an acorn"

—Pg 2, THE INTRICACIES OF THE TIME TRAVEL, Sir R.H. Hargreeves


"In the 50th year of Earth's 20th century, all able-bodied Garde & Cêpans who had escaped from the invasion & subsequent collapse of Lorien landed on our sister planet without much issue…Native representatives came to greet the numerous shuttles and helped to scatter the survivors across the globe in the hopes of evading further prosecution by the pursuing Mogadorians…It did not take long for the Mogadorian scouting fleets to follow…In the 54th year of the Earth's 20th century, the witch hunt for the Council Ennead began with Council Ent's death…No one was safe"

—Pg 10-13, THE WITCH HUNT OF THE COUNCIL ENNEAD, E. Gussman


"…It was hard to hold on, even as my fingers gripped tight to Ent's coat as he tossed me aside…and I fought to keep my eyes open…but the pull of the temporal plane was too strong and against our best efforts, we soon found ourselves falling apart…Spat out in various places along the timeline, we had escaped the terrors of the apocalypse, but not those of this new (old) timeline…When I woke, I woke alone"

"Why should I have to fight for my equality when it is my HUMAN RIGHT to share the same bathroom as you?…The vision of the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People is to ensure a society in which ALL of the individuals have EQUAL rights WITHOUT discrimination based on race…I know that one day a black president WILL sit in that oval office in the White House, and by God, I wanna be there when it happens!"

"…He said, 'Son, when you grow up, would you be the Saviour of the Broken, the Beaten and the Damned?' He said, 'Will you defeat them? Your demons and all the non-believers, the plans that they have made? Because one day, I'll leave you a phantom…to lead you in the summer; to join the Black Parade…"

PICTURED: DIEGO HARGREEVES, 30yrs


"…In the name of God & Country, we learnt to defy gravity. To honour our families, we lived in the belly of a beast. We fixed the hearts of iron monsters…We stitched corpses together to send home to their families, so that they may finally rest. We became worms in the mud for honour, for righteousness' sake, for God & Country…I fought for you and I'd do it again, as many times as it takes…"

—MEMORIAL DAY SPEECH 1959, Nurse G. Olga


"…The journey itself wasn't so bad, once you got used to the pinching, the pulling and the distorting of limbs…It's the aftereffects that REALLY strain you…Time travel is a crap shoot…there's no way of knowing how or when you'll end up, nor in what state…Old & grey in the body of a child or withered away with the mind of a child…Still, there are worse things"

—Pg 5, LA COMMISSION DU TEMPS ET DE L'SPACE HANDBOOK, The Founder


"…Maybe it was a good thing that no one knew about autism when I was a child…There was no word or explanation for autistic behaviour other than "weird" or "strange" or worst of all, "different" I know that other people thought that I was strange…My father called me "antisocial" and he was right, I was…I didn't enjoy the company of other children with one or two exceptions. But those kids might have also been labelled as "weird" and my father rejected them as "unsuitable friends" But they made me happy, if only for a little while…"

"…In the words of my mother: Trust no one, always be alert, paint yourself the pretty flower with hidden thorns and make sure that no one can hurt you again, Little One"
