Grady Dennison has done the impossible: he’s invented time travel. His mission is singular—recover and preserve the world’s lost history and deliver it to researchers so humanity can finally know its complete story.

James Callahan, a young wanderer with a love of history passed down from his grandfather, stumbles across Grady’s secret in Pompeii as Mount Vesuvius looms. Instead of exposing him, James offers to help bring Grady’s vision to life.

Together, they journey through time—from the mystery of Roanoke Colony to the blood-soaked fields of Gettysburg to the burning streets of 1906 San Francisco—walking the fine line between preserving the past and protecting the timeline. But when a powerful CEO, a determined woman from San Francisco, and a storied fortune in gold complicate their mission, history itself may not be the only thing at risk.

Time is fragile. History is not what it seems.

Grady Dennison only wanted to protect the past. James Callahan only wanted to live it. Celeste only wanted a future she could call her own. But when a lost Enigma code book known as the Epsilon Book disappears before its place in history, the three are thrown into a battle across decades—facing off against obstacles they never anticipated and an enemy who will do anything to benefit himself.

From the shadowed halls of Bletchley Park, home to England's heroic codebreakers, to the uneasy peace of a world that should never exist, the trio must unravel coded secrets, confront enemies who know them too well, and decide how far they are willing to go to preserve the thread of history.

The Sovereign Thread

Released 1/2/2026

History was never meant to be simple.

When a series of unforeseen incidents happen in the past that reshapes the world, the future no longer belongs to the West. Rising from the heart of North America, an indigenous civilization commands the respect of nations, its capital Cahokia a beacon of power and culture. But this timeline was never supposed to exist.

Caught between duty and conscience, the Archivists face their most dangerous mission yet: deciding whether to preserve a history that feels better than the one they knew, or to risk unraveling it in the name of restoring the past. Pursued by old enemies and haunted by the weight of their choices, they must follow the thread that binds time itself—before it snaps.

BERLIN, 2076. Reinhardt Zeitler is a man built on a legacy of defeat. Born from three generations of trauma, he refuses to inherit the timidity of his father. When a dying stranger materializes in the back of one of his automated trucks, he leaves behind more than a body—he leaves a key to the past: the time-travel device known as the Anti-Chronometer.

MIAMI, 1933. One bullet changes everything. By assassinating President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, Reinhardt ensures the New Deal never begins. In its place, a radical "redshift" consumes America. Reinhardt believes he has finally righted the greatest wrongs of history; his own personal tragedy.

CHICAGO, 1984. Grady, James and Celeste, the well known but mysterious Archivist Project, have traveled back to recover lost satellite data for a researcher in 2058. When Reinhardt completes his mission, they find themselves trapped in a timeline that shouldn't exist. In an alternate Chicago of crumbling concrete and state-mandated silence, they encounter Caleb Turner, a revolutionary who has spent his life fighting a regime that consumes everything it touches.
