CH354 Paradox of Interplanar Conquest
***
Like all laws, the Temporal Law—Time itself—was influenced by a realm's distance from the centre of the universe.
The closer a realm was to that cosmic centre, the slower time flowed. Conversely, the further it was, the faster its time moved relative to those inner realms.
Using Pangea as a reference point, time in all realms further away from the centre flowed faster than it did in Pangea.
In fact, a realm's time dilation ratio compared to Pangea was often used to gauge its strength. This ratio was one of the key parameters embedded within the Interplanar Eye, serving as a reliable method of determining a world's Class and power ceiling.
However, whether this time dilation was considered a blessing or a curse depended entirely on perspective.
Time was absolute and indiscriminate. It flowed equally for all within its influence—whether one was a denizen of a lower realm, or a visitor from a higher plane.
