The Great Clock
Core Structure: A cosmic wheel with twelve zodiac signs, each representing a Primary Law.
The Three Hands of Time:
Second Hand (Past): Holds cosmic memory; whatever happens is never truly lost.
Minute Hand (Present): Determines the stability of reality; where cause and effect meet.
Hour Hand (Future): Weaves possibilities; prophecy and destiny pulsate here.
The movements of these three are not always in sync—when in harmony, the world prospers; when in discord, anomalies are born.

Age of Resonance: The interaction of laws creates magic, spirits, and minor gods.
Era of Friction: The Second Hand is stuck—memories of the past leak; undead and living memories.
Era of Fractures: The Clock Hand accelerates—prophecies multiply; heroes and villains rise.
