The regalia laid neatly on the table, each piece perfect, singly and together, a complete set. Clearly bespoke, made to be worn by a single person. One who was standing in front of them, seeing them for the first time.
“How long did it take?” asked Danny.
Clockwork hummed. “Objectively or subjectively?”
“Either.”
“Longer than you have lived.”
Danny shuddered… but raised a hand to touch the sleeve of an outer robe, heavy with embroidery, beadwork, and less visible, less mundane things.
Clockwork put a hand on Danny’s shoulder. “This is how everything is meant to be.”
“Objectively? Or subjectively?”
