"So," he picked up one of the screwdrivers and began pointing at the different automaton parts as he explained. "It uses a clockwork frame for the limbs and moving them. And there's this little wind-up key here on the back. A few winds of this and it can go for about an hour. These gears here and here control the movement of the limbs which is dictated by the teeth you see here. Kind of like a music box, except instead of making music it dances. Unfortunately, without celestial bronze, the parts are just too big to allow it to both dance and make music. And let's be real, dancing tools are so much cooler than musical ones."
