Timewinder

In the beginning, Timewinder had one job and one job only, to keep the flow of time running properly. It was a simple job, easy to manage, "underwhelming" as she would put it. Once Timewinder got everything set up for a world, she would never need to touch it again unless it somehow got out of whack. In fact, her not actually doing anything after their work was originally requested was ideal for ensuring that nothing went wrong.

This is how their job continued for a while, be summoned once every couple millennia, make sure everything was temporally sound for a world, and go back to doing nothing. Unsurprisingly, Timewinder grew increasingly bored, and started seeking out the other deities to for stimulation instead. She did not mess with Dialmaster, as she was curious about his job and wanted to learn more, and he ended up not minding their company. The Overseer had no interest in any sort of companionship and pushed her away at every opportunity, they were colleagues, they didn't need to be friends. She had the most fun with the Conductor though, as his high levels of patience made him the subject of her constant teasing. There were times that he would indulge and they would share the banter, and eventually established a sort of friendship. Though there weren't many other individuals to help keep them entertained, this did ease Timewinder's otherwise bored disposition.

The cyclic monotony of the deities' usual tasks and downtime was interrupted when Overseer, the Watcher Deity, announced that he would be stepping down from his current position. Given two worlds to supervise by the hand of Dialmaster, he expressed his disinterest to continue under this role, opting instead to return to his original position of watching over and keeping the other deities in check. This raised an alarm for the other deities and accumulated a lot of opposition from them, urging him to reconsider, but Overseer was firm in his choice. What they were not opposed to was the desire to return to his original job in and of itself, but rather, what this decision implied for the worlds he was assigned to observe.

A world cannot survive without a deity to claim responsibility over it, and to abandon one is a promise to send it and everything inhabiting it to certain death. Worlds are frequently made and destroyed, but those are mostly subjects of creationist testing. With the amount of development and evolution that both of Overseer's had made, this decision could be considered a crisis.

In light of this outcome, two of the deities who were more opposed to this resolution, Timewinder and Dialmaster, hatched their own plan to counteract his. Dialmaster, a creationist who specialized in world-building, created an environmental replica of both the affected worlds that they could be safely transported to. They placed the planet in Timewinder's domain so that she could use their limited creationist abilities to construct homes and facilities for the residents as needed. Timewinder was more involved with the residents as they arrived and stayed, while Dialmaster continued his work in the background.

Starting in 2031, both of the deities would use their portals to either lure people into them or follow a more direct approach of taking them. Once attained, these people would be placed into districts of about 20-30 people. These districts would be about as big as an average street block, be used for addressing, and would take a month to two months to steadily collect everyone that inhabited them. This process was continuously repeated in order to get people in the most efficient way possible without sending either world into a panic over the amount of disappeared. They accepted from the beginning that not everyone could be saved, but they vowed to rescue as many people as they can in the time they have.
