Object
Clock in Fleur de Lys Pub
A large, ornate clock hanging above the bar in the Fleur de Lys pub, its brass casing gleaming dully under dim interior lighting. Its hands move with mechanical precision, syncing the return of the android villagers to a preset moment—their chimes cutting through the unnatural stillness. During pauses, the clock's hands freeze mid-motion; when it resumes, its hollow chimes pierce the silence, forcing the villagers to stand motionless until the clock's sudden activation reveals their artificial nature and the control system operating them.
