> It's signed "Francine". You don't know anyone named Francine.
The only label on the box reads "Francine Beaumont". If I had known any Francine Beaumont, I'd be tempted to think they were the ones who sent it to me. However, it's pretty clear that the label indicates the recipient, which is of course myself.
I decide to open it. I'm really not in the mood to wait any longer for Vince to answer my message.
What I hold in my hands when they leave the cardboard shell is an object utterly foreign to me. It has the shape of a clock, and is filled with all kinds of insane mechanisms. There is no dial and there are no arms.
The brass construct is cold, so I put it down on my desk to examine it further. There's a key on the outside, apparently used to wind up the contraption. There is also a ring around the edge which looks like it can be rotated.
I walk to the window, and look outside before closing the blinds. The sunset has coloured the sky a magnificent amber hue where it sets over the building in the distance. Cilmareen is a beautiful place to live.
I turn my attention back to the gift I received. I don't know what to think of it. I have no idea what it's for, and I don't want to mess anything up, yet I'm tempted to try out what I can do with it.
((You can now also take control of Francine whenever she's awake.))
