Editing Map the Multiverse (section)

==Time Axis==
This axis concerns the rate of time flow in relation to Amber. In Shadows at level 0, time passes at the same speed as in Amber. In those realities at higher Time ratings, time flow can be faster (fast time) or slower (slow time).

The multiplier for each degree shows the difference in rate. At a Time 2 Shadow, time flows five times faster or slower than in Amber. In the first case, five days go by for every Amber day. If it’s a slow-time Shadow, then it’s the opposite: every Shadow day corresponds to five Amber days.

Fast-time Shadows tend to be more common or, at least, more interesting to Amberites, so the default assumption for Shadows of Time greater than 1 is that they are fast time. If that’s not the case, then a Slow Time Tag should be included in its description.
