Famed throughout the Old World, the exquisite works of the master artificer Murtok Fabor are much sought after, and it is in the chill shadow of the Winter Gardens and the Korotovsky Theatre that the master has his workshop. His clockwork contraptions, mechanical eggs, and lifelike automatons have delighted children and adults the length and breadth of the Old World.
