But the silver watch in Aria Vale's hand didn't care.
One touch, and the world froze—clouds, clocks, even the air. She wasn't alone; Lena Maren, her bestfriend was pulled through with her, into a world of magic, swords, and starlight.
There, they would meet Kael Dorian and Sir Rowan Thorne.
Two men tied to the watch's secret...and to the fate neither woman saw coming.
The hours were theirs—if they dared.

Episode - 1
Café across from Aria's apartment.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*sipping coffee* You look like you saw a ghost.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*staring at watch* My watch stopped.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Wow. Earth-shattering news. Want me to call the press.
Aria Vale (Fl)
No, seriously. It's still ticking...but the time isn't moving.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
That's...weird. Probably just a battery thing?
Aria Vale (Fl)
Look outside.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*she glances up*
The street is frozen— barista mid-pour, dog frozen mid-leap, clouds hovering in a place.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
What the hell?
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Is this some prank? You hired actors?
Aria Vale (Fl)
If I did, do you think I'd still be living in an apartment with peeling wallpaper?
Aria Vale (Fl)
*she steps outside*
The air was heavy, silent.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*she follows, cautiously*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
This is... seriously creeping me out.
Aria Vale (Fl)
Do you see that glow down the street?*pointing*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Oh no. No, no, no.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Every horror movie ever...this is where people die.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*already walking* Guess I'll die then.
They approach. The glow sharpens—a silver pocket watch pulses faintly in the middle of the road.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Don't touch it.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*half smiling*
Aria Vale (Fl)
You sound like my mom.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*Aria crouches, fingers brushing the watch*
WHOOSH— Time snaps back. Car honk, coffee splashes, dog barks.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
WHAT JUST—
Aria Vale (Fl)
*clutching the watch, breathless* It started again.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
You nearly got flattened by that taxi!
Aria Vale (Fl)
There's something engraved here.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Let me see—
Aria Vale (Fl)
"The hours are yours... If you dare."
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
... That's not creepy at all.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*half smiling* I think my Tuesday just got interesting.

Episode - 2
Aria Vale (Fl)
*twirling the glowing silver watch*
Aria Vale (Fl)
Lena... I think this isn't just a watch. It's... something else.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*perched on the sofa, arms crossed*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
"Something else= dangerous?" or "Something else= magical?" because... I'm going with dangerous.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*smirking* Maybe both. But I need to test it.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*groaning*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Aria, remember what happened outside the café? Time froze. I'm not doing that again.
Aria Vale (Fl)
Relax, I'll be careful.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*she clicks the watch*
A soft WHOOSH fills the room. The walls shimmer like water, and a faint wind blows with sparks of light.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*clutching Aria's arm*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Uh... what's happening?
Aria Vale (Fl)
*breathless* We're... moving. Somewhere else.
They open their eyes to find themselves in a sprawing medieval market, lanterns glowing, cobblestone shinning. Strange magical creature, small floating lights dart among the stalls.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*whistles*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Okay... I didn't sign up for magical medieval Europe.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*checking the watch*
Aria Vale (Fl)
The inscription... "The hours are yours if you dare."
Aria Vale (Fl)
Yeah, we dared.
A tall regal Man in a flowing cloak bumps into Aria.
Kael Dorian (Ml)
Careful, miss. The streets can be... unpredictable.
Aria Vale (Fl)
Uh...yes. Very new. I'm... Aria Vale.
Kael Dorian (Ml)
*smiling gently* I am Kael. Perhaps I can help you... navigate this town.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*eyeing him* Hmm... not bad. Strong jawline, confident. Definitely historical leading-man vibes.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*whispering* Lena... focus.
A young knight rushes past, nearly tripping Lena. He stops extended a hand.
Knight
Are you alright? I'm Sir Rowan. And... You look... new here.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*taking his hand, startled*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Uh...yes. I'm Lena.
Sir Rowan Thorne(2Ml)
Then allow me to guide you...and keep you safe.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*grinning*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Safe... and maybe a little magical adventure, right?
A small glowing creature zips around their feet, giggling.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*laughing nervously*
Aria Vale (Fl)
Yep... magical is definitely part of this.
Kael Dorian (Ml)
*to Aria* Be careful with that watch. It seems... sentient.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*holding the watch tightly*
Aria Vale (Fl)
Yeah... I think it wants us here.
Sir Rowan Thorne(2Ml)
*to Lena* And I think it wants us to meet.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*quietly, smiling at Rowan*
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
Then I guess... adventure it is.
Aria Vale (Fl)
*glancing at Kael* Look like our magical history lesson is just beginning.
Lena Maren (2Fl/Fl's bestfriend)
*to Aria, teasing* And we're not even late for the first class.
