A grief-stricken alchemist reborn in a sickly youth must shield his devoted sister from noble predators and a vengeful rival while his godlike power lies locked away.
Grief once compelled a celestial alchemist to seal his heaven-shaking abilities and embrace death, but consciousness returns in the frail frame of a fourteen-year-old on steam-choked Copper Island. Five iron rivets driven through his body keep that dormant force contained while predatory aristocratic houses and a crumbling empire circle the vulnerable household. A rival from his former existence actively hunts the sealed power he abandoned. His only bulwark is a sister whose ferocious devotion refuses to let him fade, forcing him to relearn his craft from nothing to defend the only bond that matters.
