Replace the sentence in the rule “The Twelve Arcs” that reads “Each of the one hundred and forty four Hours can be Broken, Focused or Restored.” with

Each of the one hundred and forty four Hours can be Broken, Focused, Restored, or Lost.

Create a new rule called “Destruction of the Hours” as follows:

The Emperor may, as a Daily Action, “destroy an Hour,” which is an Atomic Action with the following steps:

1. The Emperor decreases their Ticks by one.
2. The Emperor posts a Story Post identifying a broken Hour, and including one sentence describing a significant or trivial game action that did NOT occur during the dynasty of that Hour.
3. The Emperor marks the Hour of that dynasty as Lost, marks themselves as its Guardian, and adds the sentence as its Moment.
4. The Emperor increases each other player’s Quartz by one.
