For Eleanor, every tick of the clock was a reminder of the cost she was paying.

In her world, time was more valuable than gold, and every moment wasted was a moment lost forever.

The mountains opened like a wound. At the edge of the Spires, where the peaks met the sky and the wind whispered in languages long dead, a chasm tore the earth.

The locals called it The Severance—a place cursed by time-magic during the Shattering Wars, now avoided even by crows.
