🔮 The Clockmaker’s Secret
Chapter 1 – The Broken Clock
In the heart of an ancient town, there was a clocktower that hadn’t chimed for a hundred years. People said time itself was trapped inside it.
A young apprentice, Ibrahim, who loved machines, decided to find out why.
Chapter 2 – The Silver Key
Deep inside the tower, Ibrahim found a hidden drawer containing a silver key carved with strange runes. When he turned it in the clock’s core, the gears began to glow with blue fire.
Suddenly, the world froze—birds hung in the air, water stopped mid-splash, and even the wind became silent.
Chapter 3 – The Guardian of Time
From the shadows appeared a tall figure cloaked in starlight.
“I am the Guardian of Time,” it said. “The clock was broken to protect mankind. If you restart it, time will flow again—but only if you promise to guard it.”
Ibrahim, though afraid, placed his hand on his heart and nodded.
Chapter 4 – The Clock Reborn
The silver key clicked into place. The tower shook, bells rang for the first time in centuries, and time began to move again. The townspeople cheered, unaware of the boy’s bargain.
But Ibrahim now carried a new weight: he had become the Keeper of Time, destined to ensure the clock never stopped again.
✨ Moral: Some secrets are heavy, but courage turns responsibility into destiny.
