* Story *

The City changes very fast. After the defeat of the Trickster, a group of Hammerite
separatists who call themselves "Mechanists" grows in number and influence in the
city. The Hammerites are weakened and unable to stop the fluctuation in their ranks.
These new fanatics are especially interested in engineers, chemists and inventors
and many have already joined them. But it is not clear what their plan is
and how it will affect the City.

Artemus is concerned about this development and decides to share his knowledge
with Garrett. He is convinced that Garrett would be able to gather some information
and reveal some of the mysteries surrounding these new Mechanists. But one thing
was mentioned many times in the Keeper books:
The Metal Age and that time is short...
