A Clockwork Spiral - Steam Witch Hideout

They call me Steam Witch. Funny how that name amuse me. Certainly, they didn't call me that for nothing. I was feared since I could make all mechanical things follow my orders, even the prototypes. A simple trick I learned actually, many many years ago, on how to manipulate these steam gears. I crushed all other vampires who have this slightest knowledge of it, to make it my only powers. And thus, the name.

However, a new technology arise, one that does not get affected by my trick. This would certainly my doom, unless I could do something... It's time for me to meet an old friend once more...

Greetings again! It been awesome day for A Clockwork Spiral, since they have surpassed last year's donation total a few days ago! Wohooo! And to think there is less than a week left for this event. What are you waiting for? You guys better shop before it closes! Until then :D

A Clockwork Spiral - Diesel Dance

'He' was given to her as a parting gift by her late father. Adopted father that is. No one knew her real identity, they just easily believe in lies or perhaps that she was just a damn good actor. Of course, this particular 'he' was not human, it was a robot made to kill, made to protect her in this era of wars. She used him without remorse to banish the foolish authorities that knew no limits. She completed each missions given to her with ease, the war between Diesel and Steam has just reaching it's peak.

Twirling Clockwork

The day was especially bright. The air seems to be thin and light. The gears were ticking as beautifully as they were. The sun was too striking for most citizen's liking that they start going out with fashionable umbrellas. A young lady in particular was strolling around Cursed, taking her time, unlike the people around that wanted to be under their roof rather than under the sun.

With her antique parasol, she had her fill of the sunshine peeking through the trees and building, soaking her skin. It was safe to say she was a child who loved sunshine more than the cold air that usually engulf Cursed. She thought of nothing as she continue to stroll around, from gears to gears, to the Clockwork Fountain and climbed up to the Bridge as well. Oh how she missed those activities she did during Cursed was still on earth. 

As she came back down, she finally noticed the odd feeling in the atmosphere. She finally noticed that behind the ticking of the gears, the sound of animals has quite down, or rather it seems that there is no animals exist on Cursed. She finally remembered that there  was morning news about the war below. Even with Cursed afloat, they still took heed of what happens under them.

 The day was nothing to be enjoyed with. She noticed that people is running along to the blimp where the main engine mechanism is as well as to the Fountain that runs those gears. Faint cracks can be heard within the steady ticking of gears. The young lady dropped her parasol. 

It was happening....

Oh no! Please don't take it seriously! It not the end of Cursed yet! It's just that A Clockwork Spiral will be ending very soon, at noon of Monday to complete their full 5 days of opening. Get there quick if you haven't been there yet!

Tick.... Tock.... Tick....Clockwork....

Tick.... Can you hear it?......Tock.....That sound......Tick.......The sound the ensure that this town still lives........ Tock..... But have you wondered?.......Tick......If those sound......Tock........suddenly stops?.....................................................................

Wouldn't that be awfully wonderful? When it's finally silence in the air, rather than the ticking tock of the gears. Where the sky wouldn't look so sad and it would be nice if the citizen isn't so snobbish. And perhaps if I could blow up that blimp, I could rest well today? Ah, my thoughts amuses me. It has been a while since I thought about this. Oh? About what you ask? The image of the gears in Cursed suddenly stops. That one.

Yes. Go on quiver under your quilt. You and I know well that this will happen sooner or later. Your so-called Clockwork Angel won't stop me. The day where Cursed touched the earth once more will arrive. Remember my words. It will haunt your dreams. It will haunt your works. It will plague your mind. And one day.... it will happen right in front of your eyes.......

Oh yeah! Finally from a point of view that I'm very familiar with. I hope you readerz won't be too uncomfortable with this style of writing. I always had a passion with horror/suspense/thriller novels and movies. But I have this habit of not finishing anything that I started, so far I have neglected 4 comics and 2(perhaps 5?) fanfic that has been forever since I last update them. But enough about me. I'm sure you carnies recognize this outfit from AvatarBizarre in the Twisted Hunt. Fear not, there are other colours available at A Clockwork Spiral in the booth, though I liked the Carnival look better. Haha! A quick post of ACS and another will come out soon after I hope. There is less than 24 hours left until the gears of ACS will truly stop and we will meet Cursed again during Gothmas in December.

Until the next post! See ya, my dead dollz!

A Clockwork Rider

An odd familiar rumbling sound was heard heard from a distance. Being on a higher ground made the loud rumble to be almost unheard by the citizens of Cursed, as an unnamed rider changed to her idle stance on her trusted steam bike. It was not known where she came from, she just simply appeared. Some would see her at roam around Cursed as if inspecting, on top on the Clockwork Bridge like a hawk or simple on the rooftop watching as people goes by with their daily tasks.

Few people knew who the rider with hair made by rusted copper plugs, wearing a metal mask that seems to strain her face and with a steam bike. Though they are never sure how she able to ride that bike to high places in Cursed, but they never asked. Since she is not doing any danger to Cursed, they leave her alone. Lately, it seems that she is appearing frequently, doing nothing but just watching. 

Time time she was watching the blimp which is what holding the Cursed afloat in the sky. The elders took it as a sign. That perhaps something will happen soon, and so they silently pray for it not to happen. The other though, took it for granted, not thinking the reason for her presence and believing that she is in-a-way the guardian of Cursed. 

Perhaps they would know how wrong they were.

Another post about the awesome Clockwork Spiral event! I just couldn't get enough of that place. Certainly it felt like home to me. I'm so glad the people behind World Goth Fair came up with this. I just can't wait for the next fair! The Steampunk fair will turn off their engine soon! So get there while you still can! How cool is this mask from [ContraptioN]?

The Clockwork Secret

As the town of Cursed afloat, there was a time where the atmosphere at higher sky became heavy and polluted by the smokes of wars below. As much as they stayed inside, they still need to go outside for a number of things, oiling the gears that kept the town afloat, checking for mechanical errors that perhaps happened overnight... the essential daily routine that must not be broken.

The community of Cursed very much feels that fashion was an important asset in social. It was during the breakthrough of Renaissance and people detest at the idea of wearing a clunky mask that doesn't suit the latest trend. It was until they notice a lady walking around in between the thick haze with an unusual mask donning her face. They watched her as she walks to secluded corner of the town where people don't roam to there anymore.

The gears ticks on and the lady never show up afterwards. The men was chased down to streets in demand by their wives to search the lady and ask about her mask. They went to the corner and found an almost forgotten shop of mask-makers. It was an old family of mask-making and they watched as a petite girl finished some final touch ups at her latest mask collections. It was very much similar to the mask that the mysterious lady worn. 

The masks was sold out in a day. The girl was delighted to see her new collection was a hit and she could continue in her family's mask-crafting skills. As she continue to work with the orders, one of the town-folks asked whether she knew who was the mysterious lady that walked into her store before. Confused, the mask-maker replied, "Oh? No one have came here since the day Cursed was lifted. Those men were my first customers since, I never had anyone before." 

Who was that mysterious lady who lead the people to their solution? Perhaps the Clockwork Angel? Who knows?

As I am very much excited with A Clockwork Spiral, I'm aware that the time for the gears to continue ticking is until the 22nd. Which not until the floating Cursed to touch down on the solid ground! As my dusty brain finally work its gears into coming up with lots of Steampunk styling, I'm having so much fun exploring this side of fashion! Wheee!!! Heads up though, at 9 pm SLT, DL Lokii of MV with be rocking out at the Club Gothika that located at the center of Cursed. I hope to see you guys there too! And more of Cursed posts coming~~

Return of Clockwork Angel

(click here for raw shot)
She effortlessly flaps her mechanical wings through the sky of Cursed. Her old, rusted home town. The city seems to still floats after her absence, the Clockwork Angel as she is called among the livings of Cursed. She was born as the same time when Cursed was to take shelter from the dangers of animalistic wars below. She was the genius who created the clockwork to keep the town float. Many thought her creation was a fool's idea; there was no way to lift a whole up in the air.

But she succeed. The town-folks cheered. The children could play outside again. The women could finally stop worrying about the coming dangers. The men would no longer leave their families again. They wanted to carve a statue as a memorial. They knocked at her door and opened it to an empty workshop. A note was left on her work desk. She had a short lifespan. Both her parents died due to kidney failure during the harsh war. It had an effect on her.

She left. But the town remembered her. A figurine was placed on top of the mechanism that powers the gears. Every year they mourn her absence and a foundation was founded under her name. A Clockwork Spiral.... dedicated to help the unfortunate. 

Of course no knew that she never left Cursed. Using her changed body to roam the sky. And with her trusted Dolphinea. 

A Clockwork Spiral has finally start their engine and some of the awesome designer put their all into creating Steampunk outfits and furnishes. I was supposed to start blogging earlier this week but happened to my viewer that won't let me log in buttt right now it's fixed. Yay! I was fangirling inside as this event was approaching, I haven't had chance to style up into Steampunk-ish outfits that I'm dying to try and now I can go crazy with shopping with a good cause!

As you all know by now, A Clockwork Spiral are dedicated to benefit the National Kidney Foundation. I am proud to say that my mother was one of the earliest batch of nurses that enrolled into becoming dialysis nurses in my country. And now she is working with a non-profitable organisation into managing and open new dialysis centers around the states for the people who can't afford the expenses. Definitely I work with her after my studies! Can't wait!
