This could be:

See the accounts of the end of the Lightbringer's Quest in "King of Sartar", "Wyrms Footprints" or "Cults of Terror", or read the GoG Prosopaedia. Time is the child of Arachne Solara (Nature) and Kajabor (Entropy), an unusual divine being said to be ruler of the age since the end of Godtime.
