Protect his sister and reclaim his sealed power.
A once-divine alchemist gave up his abilities after his mother died, only to wake inside a sickly fourteen-year-old on steam-powered Copper Island. Five iron rivets pin his dormant magic, leaving him vulnerable as predatory aristocrats and a crumbling empire circle the boy's household. His fiercely loyal sister becomes his anchor, while a former rival from the celestial realms hunts the slumbering power within him. Survival means outsmarting enemies who see the rivets as a target, not a cage.
