Princess Violet and the Castle of Clocks

Once upon a time...
There was a princess by the name of Violet.
Princess Violet lived in a lovely castle full of grandfather clocks. Every day at about half past noon; Princess Violet would wander around the castle halls and listen to the clocks go...

DONG!
BONG!
TICK!
TOCK!

Then each clock would pause, silent for a second or two. During that time, Princess Violet would listen very carefully.
So carefully, that she would hear if any clock was slower then the others.

TOCK!

Then she would walk the corridors, until she found the off-beat clock.
Taking out her tools, Princess Violet would gently open the clock. As softly as she could, the princess would adjust the clock until it was back in sync with the others.

So the princess spent her days, caring for her beloved grandfather clocks.
