The Echo of the Huttonian

The Great Subduction Cascade. Evidence suggests the Earth’s crust was unraveling at an unprecedented rate. Volcanic activity wasn't merely eruptive; it was *resonant*. Seismic events weren’t just shocks; they were echoes, amplified by the fractured lithosphere. Paleo-luminosity readings spiked across the western margins of the nascent supercontinent, Avalonia.

The Crystallization Event. Massive, silica-rich deposits formed across vast areas, exhibiting unusual isotopic ratios – indicative of extreme heat and pressure fluctuations. The ‘paleo-luminosity’ became overwhelmingly concentrated in these formations, suggesting a direct correlation with the tectonic forces. Theoretical models posit that the Earth’s magnetic field was simultaneously destabilized and intensified, creating a ‘temporal eddy’ – a localized distortion in spacetime.

The Emergence of the ‘Echo-Lords.’ This is a highly contested period. Some interpretations cite fossilized remains – not of animals, but of complex crystalline structures – exhibiting intricate geometric patterns and radiating faint, residual light. These structures, dubbed ‘Echo-Lords,’ are believed to have been formed within the zones of greatest paleo-luminosity, acting as focal points for the temporal eddies. Their purpose remains entirely unknown, but current hypotheses range from planetary defense mechanisms to…something else entirely.
