1: So It Begins (Again)

"Time unfolds differently, like a flower. The Trollhunter will know what to do."

James Lake Jr. is close to losing his mind. Nearly being driven mad by repeatedly resetting the timelines to save his friends, to save Toby from an inevitable fate.
Now he's got bigger problems. An ancient entity trapped within the Time Stone has latched onto him. With the Kronisfere no longer there to contain it, the entity is now bound to Jim and the amulet, trying to force him to claim the power that he so desperately desires to keep everyone safe. The one question is: how far will he go to save his friends? To save Toby?
