Watchmaker

Time is Breaking. The city is unraveling.

In a city ruled by the turning gears of prophecy, Matyev never wanted power—only to honor the legacy of the King’s Watchmaker. But when the great clockwork heart of Tsana begins to fail, and fractures ripple through the sacred order of time, he is drawn into a dangerous world of rebellion, hidden truths, and the machinery of faith. As Matyev risks everything to defy the fate written in the stars, the question remains: can he save a world bent on breaking?
