With reverence and purpose, you clasp the Hourglass of Ages, feeling its scintillating power and the pulsating temporal harmonics contained within. As you gently turn it, the eternal sands inside start to flow, cascading from one cosmic epoch to another, each grain representing the breaths of time, stretching into eons of existence. The Nexus of the Cosmos holds its breath, awaiting the moment when your spirit will be transported across the ever-shifting tides of time.
As the Hourglass turns, the cosmic whirlwind around you warps and snaps, your spirit drawn into the timeless vortex. Your journey stretches towards eras long since vanished and eras yet to be born, as epochs rush by like leaves on the winds of time. Each fleeting moment of history unfurls before you, its beauty and tragedy, loss and triumph, all encompassed in the subtle symphony of the temporal sands.
In a heartbeat too brief for mortal comprehension, you are transported to an ancient world bathed in primordial light, where mystical beings shape the forces of life and dance among the celestial spheres. You witness the birth of countless civilizations, the rise and fall of fabled heroes, and the inscrutable tapestries of strife and sorrow, joy and love, desire and pain. But even as you experience each time and place, you remain the eternal observer, compassion and power buoying you as you weave among the tides of lost and future worlds.
Your journey through the ages culminates at the threshold of the mysterious realm beyond time, where the Hourglass's power wanes and you are given the chance to shape your own path once more. As you contemplate what awaits you, three powerful destinies emerge, each begging to be explored in the vast plane of existence that now stretches before you.
The first path, the Guardian of Eons, calls you to remain the eternal sentinel, watching over the boundless cycles of the cosmos, ushering in both genesis and twilight. The second path, the Harbinger of Time, tempts you to descend to the mortal world, offering your wisdom and guidance sought by heroes and abandoned souls, becoming a timeless beacon for those who would learn from the triumphs and tragedies of history. Lastly, the third path, the Grand Weaver of Ages, invites you to harness the very sands of time, reshaping the whispered threads of destiny according to the celestial scales of balance and cause.
As the Hourglass of Ages comes to rest in your hands, the course of your spirit's journey is unveiled, a navigational chart composed of enchanted harmonics, guiding you towards your chosen destiny's gate.
Become the Guardian of Eons.
