Nexus Point

TIME GLOSSARY From Dorland’s Theory

CLARITY – Clear or good understanding of a temporal locus, pattern, event, Outcome or Consequence.

CONSEQUENCE – An undesired result achieved by a temporal Transformation – Usually referring to the negative (ie) Sometimes certain Consequences must be accepted in order to achieve a desired Outcome.

CONVOLUTION – The relative difficulty or complexity of a given temporal event or condition.

DEEP NEXUS – Sometimes called a “Void” – A crucial, significant Nexus Point where radical alteration of the time line is possible.

DENSITY – A relative term describing factor counts in temporal events.

FACTOR – An element contributing to convolution in temporal events.

FINALITY – A catastrophic Grand Imperative (like the Cuthulu asteroid strike that led to the eradication of the dinosaurs and other life.)

FREE RADICAL – A dangerous, erratic variable in the course of temporal events – usually only existing within a Deep Nexus.

GREAT VOID – An interminable shadow or Penumbra cast by a Grand Imperative.

HAZE – Obscurity in the understanding of a temporal situation or event.

IMPERATIVE – An event in time which must happen – Usually a natural event. A Grand Imperative is a natural event of special significance. Some Grand Imperatives can become a Finality.

INEVITABILITY – A progression of events that is inexorable and unalterable.

INITIATOR – A person directly responsible for a new time Meridian (Like Mohammed, or Christ). A Prime Mover of great significance.

LEVER – A secondary contributor to movement in a series of events.

MERIDIAN – An established line of temporal events on the continuum.

NEXUS POINT – A point of connection, intersection or branching of one or more Meridians in the time continuum.

NODE – A specific point on a time Meridian.

OUTCOME – A desired result achieved by a temporal Transformation – Usually referring to the positive.

PARADOX – Time’s way of correcting errors in the time continuum. Paradox is a real force, and quite dangerous. It kills or erases people and objects from the time line when unaccountable complications arise from their actions. A Paradox is NOT simply a thorny problem, it is a real effect and force of annihilation. A kind of “Anti-Time”

PENUMBRA – The shadow of influence on future events cast by an Imperative.

POINT OF ORIGIN – The temporal locus where a person or object becomes a Prime Mover.

PRIME MOVER – A primary causative lever or agent for an event – usually a person but sometimes an object.

PUSH POINT – A moment of insignificance that gives rise to a key event on a time Meridian. Often associated with a Prime Mover.

QUANTUM KARMA – The influence of causality on a Time Meridian. Each moment on the Meridian affects the next, and certain Prime Movers accumulate an aura of Quantum Karma around them that also has profound effects on the configuration of future moments in Time.

RADICAL TRANSFORMATION – A catastrophic alteration of the Temporal Condition.

TEMPORAL CONDITION – The matrix, pattern or state of affairs in a given time period.

TRANSFORMATION – Any change in a time Meridian that alters a future Temporal Condition.

TRANSFORMER – A person who causes a Transformation.

VARIATION – A subtle change in a time Meridian that does not significantly alter Temporal Conditions.

WILLFUL EVENT – Events resulting from decisions or actions taken by human beings.
