In a reality where time flows backward, reconnaissance pilot Corvan Larkin's advanced jet is consumed by an anomalous temporal distortion, plunging him into a world where history unwinds and causality reverses. He awakens to find his wounds un-healing and the world around him in a state of perpetual un-creation, where cause follows effect in a chilling, inverted ballet. Stranded and disoriented, Corvan discovers a civilization that has embraced this reversed existence, their lives dictated by the absolute foreknowledge of the Council, a governing body that maintains the Flow to protect humanity from a cosmic threat known as the Great Hunger. However, Corvan's very linearity, his innate sense of forward-moving time, makes him an anomaly, a disruptive force that threatens the Council's rigid control. He finds unexpected allies in the form of Revessan dissidents, individuals who, like him, yearn for a future unwritten, for the freedom to choose, to create, and to experience genuine joy and sorrow. Together, they embark on a perilous quest to reach the Chronos Core, the heart of Revessa's temporal paradox, seeking not to destroy it, but to recalibrate it, to forge a new equilibrium—a "layered Flow"—where existence is preserved, but choice is real, and the dawn of a true, unpredictable future can finally break over the Backward Sun.
