Backstory
Three copper gears, no larger than a child's fingernail, sparked and danced in perfect synchronization above Augusta's palm—a feat that should have been impossible without any visible machinery.

The explosion that followed killed two distinguished professors and left Augusta's left arm permanently scarred with strange, branching marks that resembled circuitry etched in flesh. That catastrophic day taught her that the boundary between scientific innovation and arcane forces was far thinner than any textbook dared admit, and that her gift for seeing patterns others missed came with the terrible responsibility of wieldin
