Noximilien the Watchmaker - S0.E3

Once, Noximilien was an ordinary clock maker with a loving wife and 3 beautiful children who has a lot of debt and a very nosy debt collector. One day, while showing his family a new invention, the family dog Igol goes missing, having run into a cave. Noximilien chases after him and falls into a cavern with a glowing pond. The glow is coming from a mysterious cube; the Eliacube. He leaves it behind at the behest of his wife, but his mind cannot leave it alone. He goes back and takes it. He spends the next few months studying it, trying to crack its secrets, ignoring his family. His research turns into obsession; his body begins to wither from malnutrition, his movements become more erratic, and his mind becomes unstable. One day, his wife leaves him, taking the children with her to stay with her sisters on an island offshore. Believing he made a mistake, Noximilien tries to leave, but the allure of the Eliacube was too much.
