"That would just be a trick. I am now a criminal as well. Alek would testify against me in court as well. We would both hang. I still don't see the logic behind it."

Silence from Pigglemorth allows the gears of the clock to be heard fully. The gears churn, tug on each other in a rhythhmic harmony, as the complex processes work themselves out.

Perrin answers Pigglemorth, feeling sympathy for the man. "True, it cannot. Your daughter is dead. I know not your beliefs, but your daughter was an innocent, a good person. Where her soul dwells now you will never reach unless you seek redemption. You may have lost her in this world, but you have not lost her forever. Continue on your misguided path, though, and you risk never again seeing her, in this life or the next."

Darian, growing impatient by the proceedings, lackadaisically brushes an insect off his shoulder and fidgets.
"For the love of Adalavas... No... I cannot deny her memory."
At the top of the stairs, Ru and Perrin observe as the gears continue their rhythmic count, as pendulums swing, and weights advance.
Pigglemorth emerges from the intricate timepiece.
The older gnome reveals himself and turns himself over to the police. Her reaches up to remove his clockwork mask.
Calahan, meanwhile, looks back toward Darian, then at the floor. He crouches to pick up what had fallen off Darian's shoulder.
Calahan stands, to show Darian a paper crane.
"Silly Daddy, you already have my love. Forever and ever and ever and ever."
