Dead of Night - Keeper of Dark Time

The Keeper of Dark Time

THE KEEPER OF DARK TIME

The spirit world is far from quiet. There are so many of them here, all anxious to tell their woeful tales of Salems Marsh. These Lost Souls are trapped in this purgatory, encapsulated in Dark Time. The spirits whisper the dark secrets of what is buried under Salems Marsh.

The Keepers of Dark Time are neither good or bad. They have been here since the beginning of time guarding against evil. Only one Keeper exists at a time. Their power is formidable but is constantly being drained in the unending struggle to maintain order and balance in the chaos of the spirit world. Do not expect the Keeper of Dark Time to help you through your journeys in Salems Marsh. He will not change your fate, unless he has witnessed through time that your survival is vital to his mission. He acts only on logic and crushing evil is his only goal. To the Keeper of Dark Time, you are simply a chess piece on the board.

Time does not stop, not even for the Keeper of Dark Time. When they feel their power waning they begin to search the darkness with what they call the Third Eye. When a new Keeper of Dark Time is chosen, the depleted Keeper will pass in time to join the spirits of the other past Keepers to help strengthen the protective dome of the spirit realm.

The Keeper of Dark Time also plays a role in the story title "The House" (Miss Grul's Boarding House).

Of all the characters that I've created, the Keeper of Dark Time has become the heart of Frightbytes and it's stories. Perhaps I've become the Keeper of Dark Time myself.
