Librarian Inside a Giant Clock - Anime Style

An original anime-style librarian stands inside the inner chamber of a colossal clock. Brass gears, cogwork, and winding mechanisms swirl around them, while pendulums swing in the background. Warm amber light filters through stained glass, casting colorful patterns on curved bookshelves filled with ancient tomes that line the clock's interior. The librarian wears a vintage cardigan, pleated skirt, knee-high socks, and round glasses, and they hold a floating stack of glowing books. The scene blends steampunk aesthetics with magical library vibes, featuring crisp linework, vibrant yet muted colors (gold, copper, teal, emerald), soft shading, and expressive anime character design. Depth of field and subtle motion lines emphasize the ticking heartbeat of the clock.
