The Clockwork Heir
In the heart of a bustling steampunk city, 18-year-old Liora is an orphan working as a clockmaker's apprentice. Her life is ordinary, if not a little dull, until the day an enigmatic customer brings in a peculiar device: a clockwork box engraved with glowing symbols. "Fix this," the customer whispers, "and you'll uncover your destiny." Liora's curiosity outweighs her caution. She spends nights studying the box, discovering that it's not a clock-it's a map. When activated, it projects a shimmering route leading to the fabled "Vault of Aeons," a legendary artifact said to grant its possessor mastery over time itself. Before Liora can make sense of her discovery, she's attacked by a group of shadowy figures, revealing that others seek the box. Fleeing for her life, she's rescued by a roguish skyship captain named Cyrus, who offers her safe passage-if she splits the treasure with him. Reluctantly, Liora agrees, and they set off on an adventure filled with treacherous airship battles, hidden traps, and ancient riddles. As they journey, Liora uncovers secrets about her past. Her parents were not mere clockmakers but key members of an ancient order tasked with guarding the Vault. Her connection to the artifact is stronger than she ever imagined, and unlocking it might not just reshape her future-but rewrite the fabric of time itself. But the closer they get to the Vault, the more dangerous their path becomes. Rival treasure hunters, a crumbling alliance with Cyrus, and the revelation of the artifact's dark cost force Liora to make an impossible choice: seize the power to change the past or protect the present.

Between Then & Now // Hugh Jackman
(Complete) A possible future tethered by the hands of a watch that can't be controlled. ... Kinsley Hale's grandpa has an obsession with clocks - analog, cuckoo, pendulum. If you can name it, odds are he has it. For his 80th birthday, Kinsley wants to get him something special. Something one of a kind. So, she visits an antique shop. Nothing screams unique quite like old, dusty collectables, and she comes across a beautiful piece - a wornout leather wristwatch encrusted with deep blue stones. It's perfect. Until she finds herself unexpectedly transported from present day New York to Australia in 1994. Thrown completely off guard by dial-up internet, grunge music, and the rise of digital media, she struggles to navigate an era where a young Hugh Jackman has yet to experience fame. Fascinated with his raw talent and magnetic charm, Kinsley finds herself falling for him as she tries to figure out a way back home without changing what happens in the future. Even small actions in the past could alter the course of history, and if she can't keep her emotions in check, she's going to jeopardize everything Hugh is working towards. That leaves her with a heart-wrenching decision when she learns the truth behind the watch. She has to choose between saying goodbye to the man she loves or destroying his dreams.Concluida
The Land of the Purple Ring
The clockwork man is crafted, to begin with-his father forced by that terrible tyrant Time to create her a slave for all eternity. His brain boasts balance wheels and torsion springs; he can wind himself up with a key in his side; and, most importantly, his gyroscopic tourbillon heart glimmers with pure diamond. He is a living being and he is art, and he refuses to remain a slave forever. He therefore slips through Time's fingers as the Sands of Time slip through the cracks of reality (at least, when the time cats aren't using them as a litter box). Among astounding adventures, despite harrowing hardships, and in between escaping interfering enchanters, the clockwork man seeks his imagination, his purpose, and his name.Concluida
