Unbeknownst to the common man, the concept many would know as a "time lord" is real. Guardians of history, Arglwydd Amsers are assigned to various spots in history, to make sure certain important events happen by the god of time. When they're not on assignment, they're in the designated "present" - making sure no one is messing with the time stream. Blending in, looking like normal mortals (minus their eyes). No one knows they exist (except a select few they keep as companions, more on that in the notes).

Gwendolyn went through the motions. Did his duty for a long time. Made sure time was right, and made sure some.... horrible things happened. He... hated it, to be frank. Having everything in his life decided for him. Everything he'd ever do was decided for him. He didn't want any of this. He was never asked what he wanted, his feelings never considered.

Gwendolyn ran away. He went rogue, galavanting through time and trying to be as free as he could be. He avoids any other time lords, knowing he'd likely be forced back to his duty. He never purposefully screws up anything in the time stream, knowing how hard it is to fix. However, he doesn't mind if something happens on accident. Whatever, right? He doesn't care anymore. He's free. And loving life.

A few tid bits:

All Arglwydd Amsers are intersex. This includes Gwendolyn. Their gender is left up to them.

Arglwydd Amsers generally do not like interacting with other Arglwydd Amsers. They never really consider them family or lovers, just a coworker they might run into who might mess with their work. Because of this, it’s rare to see more than one in any one time period/place combination. 

Companions are important to Arglwydd Amsers. They tell one person the truth behind what they are and take them on adventures with them. The companion is locked from telling anyone the truth behind who the Arglwydd Amser is with a silence spell similar to Pearl's silence in Steven Universe. This is not done on purpose but is a sort of survival instinct done automatically by the Arglwydd Amser.

 If a companion is mortal, the Arglwydd Amser always keeps a keepsake to remember the companion by. And returns them to their time before they age too much.

The time god knows what companions each Arglwydd will get throughout their lives, but prefers to leave their identities and what their relationships will be like a surprise to the Arglwydd Amser. He also never tells what other relationships will be important through the Arglwydd Amser’s life, or what they need to say in order to complete their mission. He knows his Arglwydd Amsers are smart and can figure things out themselves.

Arglwydd Amsers are sort of like jellyfish. They can, theoretically, live forever. However, they can be killed by outside means. The time god is aware of if and when an Arglwydd Amser will die and is ready to replace them at a moment's notice. He never gets attached to them for this reason. 

The time god is aware of Gwendolyn running away, but simply does not care. He does not foresee him causing any major problems- and he has enough Arglwydd Amsers to cover any spots Gwendolyn is supposed to be. One rouge one is nothing to worry about.

There are other Arglwydd Amsers who know Gwendolyn is rebelling and are chasing after him, trying to get him back to work. Unaware their boss doesn't care.
