When every clock in the town of Virelle suddenly stops ticking, time itself freezes. Only four strangers remain awake - Emi, a curious inventor; Alexa, a brave knight-in-training; Misoo, a gentle musician; and Ari, a mysterious witch.

Together, they journey into the abandoned Clockmaker's Tower to uncover why time has stopped. What they find is not just gears and magic, but a ghostly creator who has grown tired of humanity's rush through life.

As secrets unfold and emotions rise, the four must learn that time isn't meant to be controlled - it's meant to be cherished.

A short fantasy tale about friendship, forgiveness, and finding meaning in every moment. ⏳✨

Twilight's Ember, écrit par AlarmClockHero
12 chapitres Terminé
First draft/ 12 chapter short story with some music 🏘️🕰️✨ In the charming, clockwork village of Twilight's Ember, Alice's life revolves around the tick-tock of time. As the Clock Courier Apprentice, she winds every timepiece, from grand towers to hidden pocket watches, ensuring the town's steady rhythm. But her quiet routine is shattered when a mysterious, glowing alarm clock calls to her from the lonely church on the hill. It pulses with a melody only she can hear, and soon, Alice discovers it's linked to something far more profound than mere time. When the magical clock is accidentally wound, it unleashes a chime that shatters more than just glass - it awakens Night Terror, the Queen of Nightmares. Now, a subtle dread seeps into Twilight's Ember, twisting the familiar, turning dreams into fear, and throwing every clock-and every heart-out of sync. Armed with a peculiar gift and guided by an eccentric scientist and a wise lore-keeper, Alice's job shifts from winding gears to mending souls. To fix the town's fractured clocks, she must first help its charming, gossipy residents overcome the very fears that manifest as haunting 'fright sprites' only she can see. But as Night Terror's shadow grows, Alice uncovers a truth more ancient and heartbreaking than she could ever imagine: the Queen of Nightmares is not just an enemy, but a wound, a long-lost love connected to the enigmatic caretaker of the church himself. Can Alice, the humble Clock Courier, restore harmony to Twilight's Ember and mend not just clocks, but the deepest sorrows that threaten to consume the very fabric of time? #Fantasy #Magic #Clocks #SmallTown #Mystery #FoundFamily #Redemption #Fears #Hope #Whimsical
The Seven Kings , écrit par MorganMathiex
1 chapitre Terminé Contenu pour adultes
The world is on the brink of annihilation as the Void, an ancient and malevolent force, threatens to consume everything in its path. A prophecy foretells the rise of seven destined kings who must come together to save the realm. Each possesses unique powers, born of light and shadow, yet their union is fraught with tension, mistrust, and the weight of their personal pasts. At the center of the story is Kael, a fiery and determined warrior seeking redemption and purpose. Alongside him are Elysia, a wise and enigmatic mage with a deep connection to the world's hidden truths; Nira, a skilled archer driven by loyalty and fierce independence; Serin, a scholar haunted by the burden of ancient knowledge; Lyra, a rogue whose sharp wit hides a wounded soul; and other allies whose destinies intertwine in unexpected ways. Their journey takes them through perilous trials, from haunted libraries and ancient sanctuaries to crumbling cities torn apart by the Void's corruption. They uncover fragments of the past, learning of an ancient order that once sealed the Void away, and the sacrifices it demanded. Through relentless battles and moments of reflection, they begin to understand the price of wielding their extraordinary powers: the need for balance, unity, and self-awareness. Despite their victories, the world remains scarred. Even after destroying the heart of the Void, cracks remain in the fabric of reality, threatening to fester into something worse. The seven realize their fight is not just against an external darkness but also within themselves, as they grapple with loss, duty, and the temptation of unchecked power. Amidst all this, the story shines with moments of humanity: bonds forged in fire, laughter shared after battles, and the quiet, personal struggles that make each character relatable. These moments of levity and connection serve as a poignant reminder of what they are fighting to protect-a world of fragile beauty and hope.
