Stranger was an interesting man, I only met him once. It was during the ceasefire as we were preparing for the operation at the centre of reality. I can recall it was in the medbay of the foundation. Due to the low volume of injuries happening at our base aside from the occasional incident from carelessness. I decided to stay and offer assistance if necessary. Eventually I tagged along with Ignis when wandering around site. We were invited in to talk with a medical member in there office. After that we simply observed some.... interesting things.. in medbay. He was certainly an intriguing person. My first interaction with him was in their medbay. Some of his staff seemed to be harassing him about a "settlement" . 

Beside the point, at this moment I learned of a place called "The forgotten realm". I arrived there with Noctua after being relieved of my position outside of the foundation's break room. We linked up with the team of Dreadnaughts already inside. From there we discussed for a while before making our way over to another isle. There we came face to face with a curious figure. It appeared that he only guarded one of the isles and I was warned he would cut down anyone who he did not allow to cross. Stranger appeared to do something on the island. After most of them left however I stayed. Talking and discussing for quite a while with the entity as he left me with more questions than answers. Finally Ibis pulled me away from the entity. I tried my best to leave there with the limited knowledge I was given. But I needed to return, to seek more answers. He knew about the rot, he knew about things that were yet to come... Perhaps he can help me in my research. Though it seems I need to become "worthy" in his eyes.

First Encounter-

I remember the first night I met the Time Keeper. I was asked to return to the base while scouting. Apparently I was a candidate for whoever this person was. I was able to get out with the assistance of a fellow scout. I returned to the base, still dressed up in my medical gear. Once inside I was called into the Alpha room, I had only been in there a few times, some pleasant. Some not so pleasant. However once inside I was told to convene with this entity. They sat me down in the centre of this room. Something along the lines of telling me to "Look inward". He touched my shoulder and the room went dark around me. I felt weightless, drifting amidst the darkness as I lay suspended and alone in this sea of night. A voice spoke from... within me? I guess you could say. It was certainly an odd experience. This "voice" whatever it may be claimed to be myself. An inner conscience of sorts. It told me to trust the person in front of me. I didn't believe them, hell I'm still not sure if I do. But it answered the question I gave it, something hardly anyone outside of a few would know.

A red glow appeared in my chest, rising up as the voice spoke to me. It told me I had a great power within, a potential untapped. I thought it nonsense, that this was all a trick played on my mind. Perhaps the foundation messing with reality once again. Whatever it was, I found myself back on the floor of Alpha with a start. Looking around as the Time Keeper pulled their arm away from my shoulder. I was simply told that the Time Keeper would be in touch, it seemed that this "Power" or whatever that was now inside of me was what he was after. I didn't feel anything different from this. It's all so confusing. The Time Keeper stated that my power was dangerous as well, so that is always fun to hear. I fear for the days ahead. They left me with little knowledge. All I can do is Wait I suppose....

They later pulled me to this place between realms? Or something of the like. Where I met with the other aspect wielder that the Keeper had found. They had a Magenta Aspect. Turns out they have the ability of foresight? Something with seeing things how they are. And it turns out that I have the Aspect of Wrath. It's puzzling, I've never thought of myself as a wrathful person. But after everything that happened back at Area-87-B-3... No matter, perhaps the wrath portion doesn't pertain to the person. And more so only involving the aspect within. I acquired Hesh's communications and am hoping we never have to meet on the field.

-Second Encounter 

The second time I met with them it was weird. I felt inherently drawn to a place on surface. A cave with transparent amber crystals. A portal suddenly opened. The Time Keeper emerged from the violet void. Their blank stare seemingly looking past my mask. Gazing internally as they spoke. They told me to enter, informing me of another person that would be joining us. They were simply known as "The Cartographer". When we stepped through the portal and into this peculiar area we entered an area known as "The Garden". There was a translucent fountain in the middle with trees bordering the outside. A faint light leaked down from above the fountain however there seemed to be no visible source. The man known as the Cartographer stepped through after the three of us were assembled. They seemingly made maps of some kinds however they were rather eccentric. It seemed they require our help with retrieving their daughter from some sort of abyss or something along the lines. Any way they decided to go over by Hesh for a while. They did something of sorts, I'm not quite sure. However at the end the Cartographer cut their palm. Seemingly making a "Blood Pact". It was rather unsightly if I must say. Then they walked over to me. The Time Keeper placed their hand on my shoulder. And something happened. I'm not sure if this was just artificial rage that I was experiencing or if it had reached into my soul and dragged out my repressed memories. Memories of things that I never wished to revisit. It enraged me so, reminded me of why the foundation deserves to be called the good ones. They aren't just, they aren't right. The heroes aren't the ones who are on the right side. They are simply the ones on the side of the victors. All of these thoughts swelled and rose. I screamed in anguish, blood trickling from me mouth and eyes. And suddenly it dissipated. I would like to never experience something like this again. Sana assisted me when I went back to the cell. They are much too kind to me....
