The Clockmaker’s Curse

In the heart of Prague, Mira Novak, a fiercely talented clockmaker, inherits a commission like no other—the Astral Clock, a legendary timepiece said to hold the fabric of time itself. What begins as a routine repair soon spirals into a battle against forces Mira cannot comprehend. Whispers echo from the gears, glyphs shift before her eyes, and a mysterious man named Adrian appears, tethered to the Clock by a fractured timeline. As Mira delves deeper into the Astral Clock's secrets, she uncovers its true purpose: a seal safeguarding reality from devastating anomalies. But her work awakens powerful enemies, including the enigmatic Guild of Shadows, who claim the Clock must not be touched. Torn between her drive to fix the unfixable and the warnings of Adrian and the Guild, Mira races to decode the Clock's mysteries before its fracture consumes the past, present, and future. Blending steampunk aesthetics with a gripping narrative of loyalty, loss, and resilience, The Clockmaker's Curse explores the boundaries of time and the cost of defying it. As the lines blur between mechanic and magician, Mira must decide: Can she mend what's broken without shattering everything she holds dear?
