Crafting The Lost Piece

A frantic artificer needs the party's help. She has built a massive clockwork defender to protect the city, but the activation gear was stolen by a rival guild hours before the inspection. The party must track the thieves to a scrap-yard fortress. However, the gear was broken in the theft. The players must recover the shards and help the artificer re-forge the gear while defending the smithy from the rival guild's clockwork spies.
