− | Time fissures occurred all the time, but were so small they barely affected the [[space-time continuum]] as they stemmed from decisions such as taking [[cream]] or jam on toast. Larger events, such as the sinking of the [[Titanic]] where hundreds of lives were affected, could create fissures where [[time track]]s diverged from a [[causal nexus|nexus point]], allowing for travel to a [[parallel universe]].
