The '''Ordo Chronos''' are one of the smaller Ordo Minoris of the [[Inquisition]], that it's thought that they studied the passage of time when travelling trough the warp, with few amongst the [[Ordo Calixis]] having heard of it and even fewer even possessing any knowledge as to their purpose.<sup>1</sup>
It is thought that their origins are traced to the study the effects of the [[warp]] during interstellar travel along with the passage of time in that mysterious realm. This is because of the fact that time worked differently within the empyrean within certain vessels entering a journey taking months only to discover that centuries had passed within the mortal realm despite the intentions of the vessels [[Navigator]]. Such a dreadful tale is common knowledge amongst void travellers and accepted as one of the risks of warp travel. Even rarer events within the [[Imperium]] are those of [[Human]] vessels entering the warp, only to emerge at an earlier point in history.<sup>1</sup>
