Origins
The pocket watch's origins are unknown, Mthuulra hands it down to Kit after proving her worth. It could be speculated that the Pocket Watch was crafted by Mthuulra herself and handed down to Kit with a paternal feeling, the arms that show on the sides of the screen could indicate Mthuulras presence protecting kit from harm during the time the watches effect is active.

Abilities
When activating the pocket watch the screen becomes somewhat de-saturated with a soft yellow-greenish tint, Claw like arms can be seen on the left and right sides of the screen and while active grants Kit a 50% damage reduction, generates 25 eldritch armour over time and transforms any damage dealt to enemies straight into TMP while the effect is active.

Lore
This section is for the In-game Lore Files from the HUB. They can be considered spoilers if you have yet to unlock them for yourself. Mthuulras Pocket Watch "I'm not sure what to say about this thing, it was handed down from Mthuulra herself to me. I don't know if I should be afraid or grateful, either way I can definitely feel an extreme power exuding from it, one I can harness whenever I want while I'm being watched I suppose." "Another thing to note is that the pocket watch seems to transcend time and space itself, that's a given considering it's her. But this means no matter where I go or what I do, this pocket watch will always be with me." "When i use the pocket watch it loses all of its power for a long time, but for a short moment I can feel her protecting me, stuff doesn't hurt as much it's like she's protecting my very being. Eldritch armour also seems to generate around me while the watch is ticking down too, this is incredibly strong for tough situations but the long wait time between uses stops me from abusing it." "After acquiring the pocket watch and going out to do my jobs, I can feel my temporal mana overflowing like it does when I take out sinful souls." "My usual means of restoring mana by removing the face of whatever is against me and so on is stronger while the watch is active too, anything I hurt grants me a large boost to my TMP like what sinful souls could give me when devouring them." "Am I feeding her their lives...?"
