## Overview
---
The Church of Time is a diocese in [[Transelmany]]. It is the smallest in the country, bordered by the [[Church of Gravity|Gravity]] and [[Church of Space|Space]] on east and west. The capital Gregoria is located in its southern tip, notably the only region of the diocese with milder savanna terrain and not dense rainforest.
Under the monarchy, this region bore little significance. But with [[Flux|Dilation]] being one of the ‘dark’ alterations granted recognition by the Transelmany, a new diocese was created for it; albeit haphazardly— leftovers after [[Yemisi Fayowa|Fayowa]] & [[Gordon Alastair|Alastair]] divided the north between their churches. In addition to its relative obscurity, its small size and dense jungle cover make visitors there a rare sight. Gregoria and Julia, another major town in its central region, are sparsely populated, but have very productive artisan communities: most famously of clocks and watches.
Long administered by committee, Archbishop [[Tiana Früde]] currently represents the Church on the council; doing so in place of the notably absent Time Saint, whose identity is known only to herself and a few others. The reason for the Time Saint’s lengthy absence is unclear to even Früde herself. It's generally understood that they are either on a secret mission, or traveling through time itself for an undetermined purpose— if such a thing is even possible.
