  The gentle opening chords to some song come out of seemingly no where, wakening you from your slumber. You look over at your somewhat cheap light blue alarm clock, noting the time: 6:00 AM. You let out an exasperated and exhausted sigh and jump out of the bed, silencing the alarm as you throw your maroon-shaded covers off. Just like everyday, it was time to get ready for school.
  
  First thing's first, you definitely need a shower. That always wakes you up from these groggy mornings.
  
  [Author's Note: One day you awaken and go about your daily life, only to be confronted by a shocking dilemma that can lead only to confusion and peril. Can you get to the bottom of this mystery? Or will you succumb to the challenge? 4/4/2017 - Fixed the error where, upon picking up the watch initially, the game gives a scripting error.]
  
  > There better still be hot water...
  After a rather refreshing shower, you step out and dry yourself off, thinking about how nice it would have been to sleep for another few hours. Finally, you walk out don your clothes, putting on a standard black and white striped t-shirt and a pair of jeans. It's not like your outfit really matters anyway, right?
  
  With your mind now somewhat awake, it was time to continue the morning. But what to do next?
  
  > Should probably check your phone
  Obviously, you should check your phone. Maybe you had an important text message, or finally got an email back from one of the innumerable job applications you sent out? Somewhat excited for what you may see, you swipe open your phone and enter the code and see....
  
  0 Notifications.
  
  Well, what did you expect? You really aren't all that popular, after all. However, something does catch your eye. It's already 7:20! Wondering how it was already 7:20, you look at the alarm clock and notice it's still only at 6:00.
  
  .....great.....
  
  You overslept because today, of all days, the alarm clock decided to break. Internally screaming, you do the only thing you can in this situation and rush out the door to try to get to school on time. You pick up your phone and backpack and leave for your destination.
  
  > walk to School
  You burst out of the door and default to a somewhat fast jog, heading towards your high school. You can't afford being late again, or at least that's what your parents told you. Thus, you continue to storm down the street at break neck speeds, that is until you spot something glimmering in the corner of your eyes. As if magnetized to said object, you can't resist stopping to check it out.
  
  Staring at it, it looks like a silver pocket watch. Should you pick it up?
  
  > pick up the Watch
  Without a second thought, you bend down and grab the watch. Rolling it through your hands, the cracks in it become apparent, making it seem hundreds of years old. The cold to the touch metal is, for all you know, silver. It's watch face seems old in more ways than one, leaving faded numbers as well as the sheer feeling of age as the main clues. However there is something.... more. It seems almost... important? Just then, you notice something you initially missed: there was a note next to the watch. Believing that this note may explain this you pick it up and examine it, reading each word as if your life depended on it.
  
  > The Watch
  "This trinket is no ordinary watch
  
  Utilize it's powers, do not botch
  
  Travel through time and fix what's broke
  
  Otherwise a good time will end in a moat"
  
  Thus the note stated, though you were still confused. Powers? Why would a watch have powers? Why would you be able to time travel? What are you supposed to fix? End in a moat? Then there was the most important question of all: Why Me? You look towards the watch again, examining it to see if you managed to miss something. However, despite everything, the watch only looked like a normal watch. Then, as if to answer this dilemma, you notice your surroundings. Everything is still. Everyone is frozen, as if some otherworldly force has reached down and petrified the world you know. Again, you stare down at the watch. Was this the cause? There was only one way to find out, you thought to yourself, as you started to put the watch down.The second your grasp loosened and put the watch down, everything reverted. Conversations resumed as normal, as you stood there looking like a fool. Immediately, just to confirm this nonsensical reality you were witnessing, you pick up the watch and view time, yet again, freeze.
  
  You wonder what to do with this watch...
  
  > Time Travel
  You again think about the note, and how it mentioned time travel. Seeing as this watch can freeze time, it would be logical if it could also travel through time. Again, you inspect the watch in your hand, attempting to concoct a way to utilize the inate powers of this watch. Maybe... if you messed with the hours or minutes hand something would happen? But which one should you try first?
  
  > Hour Hand
  Turning the Hour Hand seems the most plausible to allow time travel, you think to yourself. Minutes would be nothing, but hours? Hours could be anything, from actual hours, to years! What would minutes be? Go back thirty minutes in time and not be late for school. After you psych yourself up, you turn the hour hand and await whatever comes next. Before you can even think another thought, you see a blue flash, and you are gone to the world you know.
  
  > ...
  The humid air sticks to you finely, giving you an awful sensation you wish would just go away. You blink, and look around. Contrary to where you were previously, you are now in a vast plains, void of everything. Before you can even think of what is going on - or where you even are- someone gasps in surprise, and you hear what sounds like something hitting the soft grass.
  
  > turn Around
  You swivel in place, spotting almost immediately the lone difference in the ever repeating landscape. An old woman, wearing what seems like peasant rags, staring in disbelief at you, as if you existed solely by some miracle. What should you do?
  
  > talk to Her
  Head filled with questions, you decide to initiate a conversation with the woman. As you approach her, she seems scared, and stumbles backward. You decide to apologize, even though you actually did nothing wrong. Her face softens, and she looks more cooperative. You explain who you are, and how you got here. Even though shocked, she seems to believe your story. Finally, it is your turn to ask questions.
  
  What do you ask her?
  
  > Where Are We?
  "We are in His Majesty Lionel's Kingdom of Azarbah, of the fine country Tolinbar, in the current year of 872
  
  Great you think to yourself An unknown country in an unknown time. Confused as to what to do next, you ask her if the country is in need some help, or, rather, if there is anything you can do to help. Her face lights up, and she asks you if you can help with the harvest. You do have nothing better to do, but maybe you should try to go back to your time?
  
  > help With the Harvest
  You decide, out of the goodwill of your heart, to help the lady with her harvest. She leads you back to a majestic town not that far from where you were. This town looks like something straight out of a fantasy book, complete with the giant castle that even has an old fashioned moat! Further she leads you, to a farm overlooking part of the village. It seems this farm grows mostly wheat, and there are already several people harvesting, however slowly that may be. The woman tells you to wait a moment, then goes into a shack. She again emerges and hands you a hand scythe, for use in harvesting. You hack at the wheat as time passes rather slowly. After you are done harvesting with the other servants, the woman offers you a room in her home if you help her with the harvest every year. You think to your self as the sun sets, that you wouldn't mind living in this village...
