In the gritty, steam-filled city of Cindergate-where magic and machinery collide-a young girl named Lira Bramble stands out as a gifted fixer of broken things. Surrounded by the constant hiss of steam vents, the clang of iron gears, and the dense fog of smoke, Lira's small workshop is a sanctuary of hope and ingenuity amid the city's relentless industrial pulse. At just eleven years old, she possesses a rare talent for breathing life back into forgotten machines, dreaming not of the heavy zeppelins overhead but of something more alive, more magical-flight. Her quiet world of gears and inventions takes a dramatic turn one stormy night when a mysterious, glowing metal feather crashes through her window, awakening strange powers and ancient secrets long buried beneath Cindergate's surface.Drawn inexplicably to the feather's pulsing blue light, Lira discovers that it is no ordinary artifact but a living relic intertwined with both magic and machinery. As the feather stirs to life in her hands, it ignites not just her inventions but a destiny she cannot yet fully grasp. Her grandfather's wary warnings about the shadowy Guild of Iron and the lost knowledge they sought to bury underscore the danger and wonder of what she now holds. Chosen by the feather, Lira embarks on a path that promises to uncover the hidden mysteries of her city and her own extraordinary potential-revealing that in a world of soot and steel, the greatest power might come from the fragile hope of something broken made whole again.
