Fendahl Ritual Console

A jury-rigged apparatus of brass and copper tubing assembled on the chapel altar from salvaged laboratory components. The console’s surface bristles with coiled wires and crude dials, its central plate etched with arcane symbols that glow faintly under the scanner’s electrical charge. The machine’s energy output intensifies as Stael completes the final connections, generating a low harmonic hum that thrums through the stone chamber and sets Fendelman’s hair on end. Condensation from the overheating components beads on the metal housing, reflecting the flickering altar candles.
