Page "Creatures of Light and Darkness" Paragraph 28

The Steel General, Set, and some others practice a novel martial art called temporal fugue.

A fighter, seeing that his enemy is ready to attack, projects himself behind his enemy — in both space and time — to strike him from behind.

Of course, the enemy does the same thing.

When both warriors use the technique, recursively, things get complicated.

Each character is replicated over a hundredfold, at various times in the past and future, thus putting a considerable strain on the space-time continuum.
