[TheGODZILLA150’s theory video](https://youtu.be/29o24bJu3ic?si=nlB8fIJNFvgAxtpI)
Images 1-11 are screenshots taken on the PS5.
The video is 3:54 minutes long, so I suggest you go watch it before engaging with the post. I’ll still give you the details, so you’re caught up when commenting.
You don’t have to read the post if you’ve watched the video.
#The Kronorium Theory:
The Kronorium has Apothicon hieroglyphs on the cover, so it’s safe to assume the Apothicons created it. The Kronorium details the past, the present, and the future, it details different dimensions, artifacts, and creatures.
So the Apothicons likely created it to aid them, in some way. Anyway, in the video, he details how the Shadowman might’ve used the Kronorium to seek guidance on how to inact his grand scheme.
He alludes to this because of one of the Shadowman’s quotes from Revelations; *”This has always only ended one way, I have forseen it.”* And the Shadowman remarks *”I’ll be seeing you”* in the Kronorium, after Richtofen delivers the first soul to the house.
We also know the Kronorium changes it pages based on the reader, as Jason Blundell said; *”The Kronorium is also dependent upon the reader of it.”*
Now, the Shadowman obviously lost a hold of the Kronorium, hence why Richtofen has it.
In the video he theorises Dr. Monty might’ve guided Richtofen to the Kronorium, so he must’ve told Maxis where it is, and then Maxis obviously told Richtofen. Dr. Monty likely did this to help Richtofen in defeating the Apothicons.
Both the Shadowman, and Richtofen followed the Kronorium’s guidance. Yet they were both lead to their doom, Richtofen, into dying in Alcatraz, and the Shadowman, into being trapped in the Summoning Key.
So the theory goes, **what if the Kronorium has it’s own agenda, and it isn’t helping the reader, but itself into completing it’s final goal?**
The events of the broken cycle lead the Kronorium right to Nikolai, and what if the Kronorium’s endgame coincided with Nikolai’s? To reset the universe, and have one light, and one dark, dimension.
Now, if the Call of Duty Wiki is to be believed, the Kronorium is still intact within the Dark Aether, likely content with how things turned out (*”The Kronorium’s pages are erased alongside history during this, but the book itself remains intact within the Dark Aether.”*).

**So what if its unhappy with humanity in the Dark Aether storyline? What’s if its unhappy with “Projekt Endstation”, with Requiem & Omega, with The Forsaken, etc..**
**And what will happen when someone eventually finds it?**
Again, before you engage with the post, I highly suggest you go watch TheGODZILLA150’s video, I didn’t mention all the details he did, and this post wouldn’t exist if not for the video.
I’d like to hear the Reddit community’s thoughts on the theory, I’d love to read through it!

Craig Ferguson pretty clearly explained it in one of the black ops 4 DLC hype streams. I think it was when alpha omega came out. It was an unusually straightforward explanation, but essentially he said that the Kronorium chronicles all of time and describes everything that has ever happened since the beginning of time and everything that ever will happen. However, its contents have changed since the fracturing of reality to resemble the zombies chronicles giant spiral of text timeline that outlines the cycle presumably when on Richtofen’s hands. However even before then, dependent on the reader, it’s contents will change accordingly, because when armed with newfound knowledge that reading the Kronorium will provide the individual reading it, he/she may be prompted to take action to attempt to change the future and decide tomake different decisions than they otherwise would have, which in turn causes the pages to change accordingly to reflect the new chain of events that are currently in motion.
To explain it much more bluntly if someone reads some thing in the Kronorium that will cause him/herto make new and different decisions than they would have before reading it, it will change their path in life and alter the future. and the timeline listing everything that will happen then changes as a result.
