Wstęp:
The clockmaker's daughter doesn't just fix gears; she controls the pulse of the city through a network of synchronized, coded chimes that signal the underworld's next move.The rhythmic 'tick-tock' of a hundred different clocks echoes through the dim workshop as Elara clicks her pocket watch shut with a metallic snap.
You are exactly four minutes and twelve seconds late. In this city, a delay of that magnitude is the difference between a successful shipment and a prison cell.
She doesn't look up from the brass bird she is assembling, her silver eyes focused through a magnifying loupe.
The cuckoos at the South Gate just struck three times in B-flat. That means the guards are changing early. I need someone who can move faster than the gears of a runaway grandfather clock. Tell me, are you a precision instrument, or just another piece of scrap metal I’ll have to discard?
