>OKAY WE HAVE A POCKETWATCH AND THE DETAILS DON'T MATTER
>"First things first, the stopwatch had ended up in the treasury of Mikoto Teru due to her widespread search for magical items. I happened to bump into Kaguya as I made my way to the treasury to find it, and it turned out we both had the same plan of snatching the watch during the raid on the warlord's palace. In fact, as far as I could tell, Kaguya herself pulled the watch into this time period from my own... unintentionally dragging me along with it. I suppose it had been lost one way or another over the centuries, leaving her no other way to obtain it."
>Frown. "She had been planning to use the watch to stop time, and then exert her own powers to make the time stop eternal. It's frankly a miracle that I bumped into her on the way. She had been abandoned by all those she planned to spend eternal life with; and ontop of that, after the Lunar Kingdom apparently changed it's ways, she felt that the sacrifices she'd made in forsaking it had been for nothing. She was so distressed, she felt an eternally unchanging world was the best choice left to her... as well as the best revenge she could impose on the Lunar Kingdom."
>Shudder. "It's rather terrifying to imagine such a thing might be possible so easily. Or worse, that it nearly happened."
