The Clockwork Sun is the Dawn Machine 2.0: an actual, functional artificial Judgement! Its power allows Empress Victoria to preside over time itself. A museum of sorts was built inside this Sun, but unfortunately it had to be abandoned due to the dangers of sunlight.

As it turns out, while sunlight won't kill you in the High Wilderness, it will turn you into glass, slowly and excruciatingly. People who have met this unfortunate fate are imprisoned within the clockwork.
