Information
Qlon Temple was rumored to hide a secret and Fukien, the head monk at Qlon, revealed that a way to defeat Neclord was hidden in this cave.
Fuklen allowed McDohl and his companions to enter the cave. The group would found the Star Dragon Sword who, upon being awoken, transported the party some 300 years into the past. Presumably, this time-travelling phenomenon is where the cave derives its name from.
The great wizard Crowley spent most of the Gate Rune War hidden here, isolating himself from the world. Hugo's Illustrated War Scroll and Window's Window Rune were also hidden in this winding system of caverns.
The cave was also speculated to have some connection to the Rune of Life and Death. Because of this, it is sometimes referred to as the Cave of Runes.
