The Drowned Clock

Divers exploring the wreck of the SS Vensholm off the coast of Norway found a ship’s clock still attached to a wall, hands frozen at 3:12 AM.

Strange, but not unheard of.

Until they checked the other clocks on board.

All of them—cabin, mess hall, engine room—stopped at the exact same time. Not due to flooding. Not due to pressure. Mechanically, they should have run for hours after the ship sank.

The Vensholm’s distress call was logged at 3:14 AM.

It lasted nine seconds.

No words. Just… ticking.

What started two minutes early?
