This world is not built to comfort.
It is a universe shaped by obsession, submission, and the cost of survival.
Its stories explore what happens when hope is indistinguishable from damnation when power demands sacrifice, and identity erodes under forces older than memory.
Nothing in Cronux is certain. No choice is clean. Every path exacts a price.
This is not a world of heroes. It is a world of consequences.

Manifestations are ancient, forces born beyond time and memory.
Through devotion, sacrifice, and Cronux, they bend mortal will and impose their visions upon reality.
Where a Manifestation takes root, the world reshapes itself accordingly.

The world is fractured by four Covenants, ideological orders shaped by their Manifestations.
Each Covenant pursues dominion through its own doctrine: sacrifice, control, transcendence, or decay.
Their conflicts define the fate of Sylon Prime.

Cronux is a mutable substance that fractures perception of time, revealing echoes of what was and visions of what may yet be. Beware: linger too long in its visions, and you may be lost to them forever.

The Manifestation of Greed, Lust, and Gluttony.
Skaedir is excess incarnate, an endless hunger that devours all in its path. Those who serve Skaedir are driven by unrelenting desire, their thirst for power swelling until dominance becomes inevitable.

The Manifestation of Gravity.
Vorathor does not command reality, it collapses around it. Space and time bend to its presence, and its followers see the battlefield not as it is, but as it must become.

The Manifestation of Life and Metal.
Lythoros forges symbiosis through sacrifice, fusing nature and machine into living engines of war. Its influence spreads relentlessly, reshaping ecosystems into instruments of conquest.

The Manifestation of Knowledge and Time.
Ithnorak reveals what was never meant to be known. Those who follow it abandon certainty, peering beyond comprehension in pursuit of boundless wisdom and power that unravels the self.

A short illustrated novella set within the Cronux universe.
Skaedir’s presence begins as a murmur, threading itself into the mind of Auratus revealing desires never spoken and truths never meant to surface.
This Fragment marks the first recorded contact between Auratus and Skaedir, where influence precedes devotion and thought itself becomes contested ground.
