Grand Gear
The Grand Gear is a gnomish workshop in Vansreik.1
When the markswoman Zherafinn struggled to master a pistol she had taken from a dead witch hunter, she turned to the gnome engineers of the city. Her first meeting with Ozzigus of the Brine Blades took place at the Grand Gear, and it began a mentorship: they met there again and again, exchanging knowledge for as long as Ozzigus's mission lasted, and with his help she built the musket she still uses.1
