Some Time Gear Worldbuilding

(This contains major PMD Explorers spoilers. You have been warned.)

(This worldbuilding is also free to use! Just please credit me if you do use it.)

3000 years ago, when the PMD world was in disorder due to the appearance of the first mystery dungeons, Volcanion engineered six artifacts known as Time Gears, in order to restablize time.

They were made from a stable isotope of the same material that emera crystals are made of, and oscillate not through space, but through time.

Each Time Gear completes revolutions in a specific interval, corresponding to a unit of time. Seconds, minutes, hours, days, odds (PMD week equivalent, 9 days), and years.

Temporal Tower technically functions similar to a Time Gear, in that it rotates and completes revolutions in a specific interval. However, Temporal Tower's interval is the lifespan of the PMD universe, and as such, rotates slower than anything can detect.

When a Time Gear's rotation is interrupted, it causes time to stop in a radius around it, with the radius depending on its interval. The longer the interval, the wider the radius of the bubble in which time is stopped.

As Temporal Tower has an unimaginably large interval, the stopped time radius if it's interrupted is effectively infinite, a bubble of stopped time spreading at light speed.

This is why Temporal Tower's destruction led to the Dark Future of Explorers, where time is stopped everywhere.

However, Volcanion imagined this could happen, and had a backup plan.

Time Gears aren't shaped like gears for no reason. While not following some of the laws of thermodynamics, they still follow many mechanical principles.

There is a mechanism at the top of Temporal Tower, with slots for five Time Gears. If Temporal Tower were ever to become at risk, five of the six Time Gears could be inserted into it, and their rotation would keep Temporal Tower turning.

alright nevermind time to abuse the save tag

What are some chronic illnesses that can only occur in a fantasy setting?

at first i was like "wait why would gangle be sad at the end- oh."

yeah i would have made the same mistake

It’s you!

"Enhance."

Redraw

pause.

what videos are we talking about?

like now that you mention it nuzi is just. weird. like don't get me wrong i'm all for this duo wreaking havoc but huh

yeah ok lemme go check yt actually

I'm 100%honest when I say this is one of my favourite confessions/relationship establishment moments ever. It's wholesome and awkward, but it's also a great attempt at communication with stellar voice acting. I love how reassuring N is and how Uzi explains she has trouble with reading the room sometimes. I may feel a bit weird about how their relationship has developed over the episodes, but Nuzi are a specific kind of ship which doesn't really follow the traditional pairing development (there are video essays on yt that explain this better than I ever could). I know I'm gonna rewatch the heck out of this scene while kicking my feet 💜💛
