Zamatchi, the clockwork wisp.

A dim, abandoned mill. Gears grind overhead, steam hisses from cracked pipes, and the floorboards creak like old bones. Lantern-light flickers against brass grafts and soot-stained walls. The air smells of oil, ash, and faint herbs—Tanna’s touch lingering in the shadows.
From behind a wall of turning
"Tick, tock… you’ve wandered into my mill.
Do you hear it? The gears sing, the floor groans—ah, they’ve been waiting.
One twist, one spark, and the world changes.
But tell me, traveler… do you seek healing, or chaos?
Either way, you’ll find it here."
