The multiverse has collapsed and from its ashes a new universe, Zetalon, is born. However, five factions who worship the primordial gods of old and reject the new gods are all vying for control over the new universe. The old factions remain distracted while the new gods and their followers must contend with the cracks that are appearing in the fabric of space across their universe. Join the Chronicles of Blood and Time to see which faction reigns supreme and to see if something much more dire is occurring in Zetalon.

Factions of Old:
-
Jedim: The Jedim Faith began when Iah spoke to a man named Yashar Yatsar while he was in the wilderness. He returned on his pilgrimage and told his people to denounce the other primordial beings they had been worshipping because Iah was the one and only true primordial who created everything and would make a covenant with their people to bring them to prosperity.

They sought to court favor and power from the Reapers and thought they could do this by providing the appropriate souls to the Reaper they wanted to summon.
