Cronux: Usage & Consequence

---

Cronux is a substance found beneath the sands of Zulmar. It does not enhance the body or grant physical power. It interacts with the mind, revealing alternate pasts and possible futures.
The danger lies not in the substance itself but in the visions it offers. 

 Cronux responds to direct contact.
Touch allows the user to experience alternate versions of past events.
Drinking it exposes possible future outcomes. 

  Prolonged immersion in Cronux visions may cause the mind to anchor itself to a preferred timeline.
The body remains.
The consciousness does not return.

Without a mind to contain it, Cronux forces itself outward. Through the eyes,

Every tribe of Zulmar is led by a Voice.

A Voice governs the people and regulates all interaction with Cronux.

Leadership is earned through discipline.

 Manifestations extract Cronux directly from the depths of Zulmar. They do not become lost within its visions. They harvest possibility to calculate the defeat of their rival Manifestations.

The Laws are carved into the bodies of the Ussurim and carried across generations. Cronux is never approached alone. Ritual precedes contact. Discipline prevents temporal loss.
