Great Clock



The Great Clock, also known as the keeper of time or simply the time keeper, was located in the center of the universe in the Breegus System and was where Clank was trapped by Dr. Nefarious. The Zoni brought Clank there because he was the rightful owner of the Clock after inheriting it from his father, Orvus, the leader of the Zoni.Clank also befriended a robot named Sigmund here who was the Junior Caretaker of the facility and referred to the clock as the universe's contingency plan. It was constructed to keep the balance of time in order after improper use of time travel by the Fongoids created a small tear in the space-time continuum, destroying 83 celestial entities. Orvus claimed that using the clock improperly could rip the universe apart, and that under no circumstance should the Clock be used as a time machine (at least not for trips longer than six minutes).

Due to Nefarious destroying various equipment using his Hypersonic Brainwave Scrambler and the Nefarious troopers, time distortions began to appear on planets throughout the galaxy. Clank was given the task of fixing these distortions so that time was in working order once again after unlocking the Orvus Chamber, and defeating Nefarious, Ratchet and Clank and redeemed Alister Azimuth, who wanted to use the clock to prevent the battle of Fastoon. Clank would then promote Sigmund to Senior Caretaker, and return to Ratchet.
