Summary
Of all the gifts her father had given her: an eternal life, a gilded childhood, existence and mind; Hornet welcomed only the affinity for mechanics.
There was a joy in losing oneself to the puzzle of creating. To forget one’s fears and struggles and, for one shining moment, be focused entirely on the twist and fold of metal was a balm to the centuries of Hornet’s existence.
Even now, in Pharloom at the end of the world, Hornet created. Perched upon a bench within the Citadel, hidden well away from the void roaming the Citadel in search of something living or Pale to consume, she spun Silk and shards together into the form of her faithful cogflies.
Or: the Second Sentinel needs repair. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
