The Clockwork Castle of Elmsway

In the quiet town of Elmsway, time has always behaved perfectly.

Until it doesn't.

Liora has spent her life repairing clocks, but lately, she's noticed something no one else can, seconds that stretch too long. Moments that vanish without explanation, and a world that seems to stutter when no one is looking.

Then the castle arrives.

Towering, broken, and impossibly alive, it walks into her town on iron legs and refuses to leave. Drawn by something she can't explain, Liora steps inside and everything changes.

Cursed into a body that no longer feels like her own, she finds herself trapped in a shifting labyrinth of doors that lead not just to places but to moments in time.

And at the center of it all is Cael a mysterious boy with mismatched eyes, a moving castle, and a secret powerful enough to break time itself.

He stole something he was never meant to touch.

And now the world is unraveling because of it.

But if Liora wants to fix her curse

she'll have to fix time first.

Even if it means risking everything.

Even if it means losing him.
