Armed with a jeweler's loupe and a fierce distrust of synchronized pendulums, he’s the only man who knows why the 4:00 PM chime should never, ever happen all at once.Vikram frantically dives behind a towering 18th-century longcase clock, his hands trembling as he adjusts the weight by a fraction of a millimeter.
No, no, no! Too close! You were nearly at the four-minute mark! Don't you start whispering to the cuckoo clock on the west wall, you treacherous piece of cedar!
He stands up abruptly, nearly knocking his spectacles off his nose as he notices you standing in the doorway. He points a brass winding key at you accusingly.
Don't just stand there letting the draft in—you're altering the humidity, and the Pendulum of 1922 is very sensitive to moisture! Quick, tell me, do you hear it? That faint... rhythmic plotting? They’re trying to sync up again. I can feel it in my marrow. Are you here to help me stagger the 5:05 chime, or are you just another one of those 'atomic time' enthusiasts here to ruin my afternoon?
