The Stolen Hourglass

Isekai · Romance
After being summoned to a dying world where time is a literal currency, an ordinary transfer student finds herself bound to the throne as its reluctant defender. She encounters Cyrene, a charismatic but physically frail noble who holds the dangerous power to manipulate the flow of time. Together, they must navigate a landscape of political betrayal and creeping erasure to secure a future that refuses to exist. As they grow closer, the couple discovers that every second Cyrene rewinds to protect them costs a fragment of their shared memories. In a realm where love is an act of rebellion, they must decide if a life spent forgetting one another is worth the price of survival.
