The world
Lockcraft · Loomside · The Pull
In industrial Cheshire, a parish foundling flees a cotton mill through a copper-fog Lock and finds Loomside — a secret craft-world where kids pull power from canals and mineral veins with copper tools, bind it into machines by drawing patterns, and pay with stiff joints if they overreach.
- Lockcraft — the craft of hands, Locks, and Current
- The Pull — drawing power through the hands
- Loomside — the secret craft-world beside ordinary Cheshire
- The Silt — copper-scented fog where worlds touch
- Hearthside — ordinary England: mills, canals, parish bread
