"My name is Maddox Bryant and I can see things that other people can't."

Maddox Kronos Bryant has spent a majority of his life feeling different from others. Several occurences has led him to believe that time travel is nothing short of possible.

Eventually, he discovers that he is a being called a Time Needle: someone who can see through alternate timelines and is impervious to time travel-- also beings who are known to have been extinct. 

With this, he finds out about the City of Clockwork, where time travellers reside; unfortunately, his mere existence meddles with the plans of the city's ruler, Lord Tempus, and is now being hunted down by him. 

In the midst of escaping the wrath of Lord Tempus, Maddox stumbles upon a group comprised of the last known living Time Needles, having survived a disastrous incident years ago, and discovers the secrets of Tempus. 

As they attempt to put an end to Lord Tempus' reign, Maddox learns more about the secrets that Clockwork hold and how he himself is his biggest enemy.

The Loop of Destiny by Zenosine
10 parts Ongoing
To all those who have felt the weight of time's relentless embrace, who have searched for meaning in the endless cycle of existence, and who have dared to dream of a future beyond the confines of the present. May this story ignite your imagination and remind you that even in the face of the unknown, there is always hope. This story began as a whisper in the darkest corners of my mind, a haunting melody of time loops and forgotten realities. It was a tale of a man trapped in a cyclical prison, a prisoner of his own past, yearning for a future that seemed perpetually out of reach. As I delved deeper into this enigmatic concept, I realized that it was more than just a simple narrative of time travel and paradox. It was a reflection on the human condition, on our struggle with time, our yearning for meaning, and our constant search for something beyond the limitations of our existence.

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)

But for Jeremiah, it's a puzzle. -------- I have no Idea to write and the story starts off slow! Hope you enjoy? ✨
