Frozen Eternity

Malgan often likes to tell stories about a Sphere where the locals had completely mastered time. They could speed up and slow down certain processes, including their own aging.

Soron, a powerful elf, ruled this Sphere. He lived for millions of years, and none of the locals knew how or when he appeared in their Sphere, but everyone was pleased with his rule and the time magic he brought to the world.

But where did Soron get such power? It turned out that Soron had learned that his Sphere was created by the Nameless One. And using a rift in space, he managed to draw on some of the power of his world's creator. From this, he forged a shield in the shape of a melted clock. Thus, unusual magic appeared in that world, and the elves favored by the ruler began to live forever.

But stealing from the Nameless Ones is forbidden. So, when the creator learned that an immortal elf had ruled his world for millions of years, he decided to take revenge. But the Nameless One didn't destroy his creation. Instead, he simply stopped time. In a single second, the king's heart stopped, the birds in the sky froze, and the sand in the hourglass stopped flowing.

This is all true, only it happened in another world. And as proof of this story, Malgan displays a shield shaped like a melted hourglass.
