Have you ever been writing a fanfiction (or RPG) and come to some point where you said, I'd like to include this, but it really pushes me beyond Middle-earth, and I don't feel comfortable there?

Uncomfortable, no.
But you have to admit the existence of a time-crystal (even though it might be considered more of the flavor of M-E than an REG *Random Events Generator* and a PC linkage) is completely outside the bounds of Middle-earth. Nonetheless, it was a sort of necessary evil to get the plot and characters of the Lonely Star RPG in and out of the appropriate time periods.
It would have been difficult to write such a wide-ranging story-line without the ability to use this suspect device!
