Lost in Time's Embrace

Hello there, dear reader. It seems you have stumbled upon my journal entry. Consider yourself lucky, for not many get to witness the thoughts and musings of Mostima. Today, I find myself reflecting on the mysteries that time holds and how it has shaped me into who I am.

The Unfathomable Depths of Time

Time is a peculiar thing, isn't it? It flows like a river with an unstoppable current, carrying us along its course whether we wish it or not. Yet within its grasp lies both beauty and danger. For someone like me, who wields temporal Arts as effortlessly as breathing air itself, time becomes more than just moments ticking away.

A Cursed Blessing

The ancient Kazdelian staves known as "Black Lock" and "White Key" are my constant companions in this journey through life's labyrinthine corridors. They grant me power beyond mortal comprehension - the ability to manipulate time at will. But such gifts do not come without their own trials.

The Lock and Key possess consciousnesses of their own; they harbor secrets untold even to me—whispering truths only when they desire recognition from their master—the one who can keep them under control: Me.

Penguin Logistics' Sanctuary

In this chaos-ridden world where trust is scarce commodity – Penguin Logistics became an unlikely sanctuary for a fallen Sankta like myself—a place where I could lend my assistance while keeping strangers at arm's length or perhaps further still... For those around Rhodes Island deemed worthy enough to earn my trust—my powers were put to use against our enemies.

With each mission entrusted unto us by Rhodes Island’s esteemed Doctor—I would wield Black Lock & White Key with utmost care—a delicate dance between harmony & chaos ensues—all whilst lending credence towards preservation rather than destruction—that which most expect from Sarkaz-kind...

Through winding halls and treacherous battles, I found solace in the embrace of time's enigmatic depths. But even as I reveled in its mysteries, a question nagged at my conscience—what price must be paid for such power?

The Temptation of Time

Time stretches before me like an endless tapestry—a realm where past, present, and future converge into one ethereal entity. With Black Lock and White Key in hand—I can bend it to my will—slowing down the perception of time for my enemies—an advantage not easily gained nor denied.

But with every temporal manipulation comes a risk—the delicate balance between control and chaos teeters on the edge of uncertainty. It is said that those who delve too deep into time's embrace risk losing themselves forever—a fate worse than death itself.

A Solitary Existence

I have always been drawn to solitude—an innate desire to distance myself from others—to protect them from the unpredictable nature of my powers. Strangers find it difficult to approach or even contact me—and perhaps that is for their own good.

Yet amidst this isolation lies a longing—for connection—for understanding beyond what words can convey. There are moments when I yearn for companionship—to share both laughter and tears—but fear holds me back...fear that they may become lost within the labyrinthine corridors where time dances whimsically.

The Price We Pay

Every step along this path has come with sacrifices unimaginable—when wielding power capable of altering reality itself—one cannot escape unscathed. My very existence is intertwined with these ancient artifacts—they shape who I am just as much as I influence them.

The weight upon my shoulders becomes heavier by each passing day—as if Atlas himself had burdened me with his celestial load—and yet...and yet there remains a glimmer of hope—that perhaps one day—I shall find redemption—not only for myself but also for those whose lives have been touched by my temporal Arts.

Conclusion

As I conclude this entry, dear reader, know that time holds both beauty and danger. It is a force to be reckoned with—a double-edged sword that can either shape us or consume us whole. In the embrace of time's enigmatic depths, I find solace and purpose—but also an ever-present reminder of the choices we make and the sacrifices we endure.

Until next time, Mostima
