Time Turners (Harry Potter)

Time Turners in the Harry Potter universe are magical devices that enable users to travel backward in time for a limited period. Typically, they resemble small, hourglass-like objects with multiple rotating rings, allowing precise control over time travel. Used cautiously, they help in short-term temporal navigation, such as attending multiple classes simultaneously or revisiting past events. However, their use is highly restricted and risky, as altering events can have serious consequences, including paradoxes. In the narrative, they exemplify advanced magical technology designed for specific, controlled applications within the bounds of magical law and safety.
