"You see, my dear Jehu, the Pastites and Futurists interpret the
prophecy to mean that the kinsman redeemer has come to renew the earth,
as you have no doubt heard, although there is strong evidences to the
contrary. I myself have been brought up to this interpretation, as it is
more acceptable than the alternate theories that exist, though I have
been for a time now doubting its accuracy. According to the Externus
Miraculum view, the Temple of Time is crucial to the implementation of
either plan, in fact it is the crux of them both, the one issue that it
is of as great importance, or greater, than the presence of you, the
kinsman redeemer. There is an altar in the center room of the temple, a
great diamond White Eagle that is grasping an ordinary altar in its
talons, and this altar is where the kinsman redeemer is to be
sacrificed. If only I had suspected so before and could have warned when
there was yet time!
"But there is no time now for such reflections, so I will continue. The
method of sending you back or forward in time is to sacrifice you on the
altar of Temis, the God of Time. It is not a traditional, atonement
sacrifice, nor of any kind that involves the cutting of the flesh with a
knife. Instead it is a molecular one. You are to be set on the altar and
then the White Eagle will start to spew forth either protons or
electrons, depending on which is chosen, past or future. When your
body's cells absorb all of the floating matter, they will be either
positively or negatively charged to such an extent that their
revolutions will be rapidly accelerated. According to theory, the
increased speed of the revolutions would cause a rift in the time
continuum, or in other words, would change the proportion between your
existence in the temporal and material realms and change your location
in time, thereby propelling you into the past or the future, depending
upon which was chosen, electron or proton, past or future.
