So, have you ever thought much about time? It's a fascinating topic. But as much as I would love to talk about it all day, the truth is that we know very little about it. So, what happens when somepony breaks time?
Well, that's what this story is about. For this is the story of the first big time crisis since Twilight sent a message to her past self. This is the story of how Starlight Glimmer broke the timeline, and of how she set out to fix it with our help. After all, who better to help fix the timeline than those who have been working with time for years?

For a story centered around time travel, paradoxes, and the like, the timeline is really straightforward. Probably because all the time travelers are trying to avoid causing any more paradoxes.
I will be going into the science of time mechanics, but don't worry, I'll stick with entry level stuff. I'm no Twilight, just a high school graduate with a collage physics textbook.
Also, the Queen of Hearts in the title is not the one from Alice in Wonderland, they are a canon character you likely know. No crossover tag after all.

Now with a reading.
