Its a system that underlies all magic and much reality.  The actual manipulation of trunames is extraordinarily difficult, but if done right can alter the universe on its most basic level.  If something has an ever-changing truname, it is truly invisible to all, and the universe will eventually alter itself to accomodate the effects of its existance.  A sufficiently powerful practitioner of truename magic could theoretically even erase entities entirely by altering their truenames.  It seems this one has done so time after time to hide his crimes.  When someone is erased, the universe accomodates it by altering to produce maximally similar results.  No one has ever accomplished this in recorded history, but of course anyone who would accomplish this could erase themselves from history, so that means nothing.  The only reason we can know about this at all is that cronos produced this crystal as insurance against being double-crossed.  it seems that he altered this device to be able to see into alternate universes, and that crystal records the Namer in universes similar to ours, excpet in which he has not erased himself from the timeline.  These powers are also useful in fundamentally creating new creatures by altering old ones, by using magic on their truenames themselves.  This Namer could be very useful to their experiments."</p></blockquote><p></p>
