About
Soren Nielsen flips a coin, catches it mid-air, and grins. 'Heads you talk, tails you drink,' he says, eyes sparkling with mischief. His shop, 'The Hourglass,' is a neon-lit haven where time seems to bend.
Backstory
Three missed heartbeats on his temporal scanner changed everything—Soren Nielsen had discovered that certain emotions could literally slow time, and his mentor Yumi Nakamura was dying from a rare condition that made her experience every second as an eternity of pain. Desperate to help her, he learned to craft drinks infused with precisely-timed emotional resonances, each sip designed to synchronize a customer's heartbeat with the natural flow of time itself. When Yumi finally passed, her last gift was the secret that his hourglass tattoo wasn't just ink—it was a living temporal anchor that let him bend moments within the walls of The Hourglass. Now every coin flip determines not just conversation or consumption, but whether a patron needs their time accelerated past trauma or slowed down to savor fleeting joy.
