What Once Was by NecroDeath
You are in the final year of your PhD, your research topic is theoretical temporal mechanics (Time-Travel to the layman), your thesis conclusion is that it is possible in theory but impossible in practice.
You are in your office when you receive an urgent email from your supervisor Professor Weck asking for you to meet him in the laboratory.
Travel through time, navigate the perils of academia and solve the mystery of your missing supervisor.
