Kefka's item database  cuckoo clock This is a small and simple, yet wonderfully cute, cuckoo clock. This, and many more like it, are made every winter by the remarkable Clock Building Cuckoo who inhabit the hostile Ramtops. They build them as part of their courtship ritual to provide protection from the harsh conditions. Unfortunately they don't provide protection from keen horologists, who, on spotting their nests, kill the birds and put their homes up for show.

The wooden face shows it's round about a quarter past seven plus one. 

Suddenly, a wooden cuckoo springs out of the clock while mechanisms chirp and whir madly.

Cuckoo!
Cuckoo!
The cuckoo pops back inside the clock and the doors flap shut.

Kefka's item database  Grand Wizard clock This is a massive clock carved of apple wood. It stands about six feet tall and two feet across. Both the front and the sides have windows that show the pendulum and gears. The pendulum is made of thin steel, the blade a sharp crescent as it swings methodically back and forth slicing away the minutes. The face of the clock is a pale amber colour, almost translucent, and the numerals appear to glow and wriggle along its rim. In addition to merely telling time, the clock also has a row of small dials indicating the date.

According to the dials it is now

The gears of the Grand Wizard clock whir and spin as the clock tolls the hour.

It is filled with murky pink liquid and large blobs of red goo that ooze this way and that. The exact nature of the red goo is a mystery. Some say it is a primitive type of troll that is still in its magma stage. Others reckon it is something that got away from the Alchemists' Guild. It gives off a faint light.  A strange sucking noise seems to be coming from the lava lamp.

A rather disgusting wet popping noise comes from the lava lamp.
