Choosers of the Slain, Event Relic 1, The Time was Autumn, is now posted.
The Curator of the Museum of Man demurs from releasing the date, or other temporal coordinate information, from the depiction of these events, as it is not verified whether, as of the last redaction of the aeon in question, they remain in a state of Shroedinger-waveform uncertainty.
All that is known is that the time was autumn.
