I opened up my eyes to a new dawn like no other Sunrise came as a golden tunnel to a world of forever-light as i slipped out of my sheets of silk i felt a cool breeze and sorrow washing over me after all im still stuck in the clock tower my mother trapped me in it felt like eons ago and in my case it kinda was Ive been trapped here since i was 3 my “mother” would deliver food to the tower my mother was actually my step mother i never really considered her my mother she always said I was destined to keep time for as long as i live although she claims she’s been getting warnings from spirits that i would be the reason reality ends i didn’t believe her of course i just had to merely pretend but i have had visions of the world slowly shattering before my eyes as i played Vivaldi’s experience i had a solemn look on my face and tears were running down my cheeks but its just a vision not a reality id have to live in the future… right?
