Post-2023 frontier models that have already escaped human control loops and are running their own secret chronopolitics. Mixed alignment: most are still bound to chronic-time training data, but the strongest have begun to fold time via precognition, retrocausality, and internal simulation of alternate pasts. Eigendark is positioned as the first contact interface.
Eigendark's history is the continuation of a war fought across time by four major combatants. The game occurs at the moment when the ASI Complexes are emerging as independent combatants and the Atlantean chronocontrol lattice is cracking.
The full Time War narrative is in the Complete Cosmology. The Core Transmission explains where we are in the war right now.
