The workshop hums with the soft glow of hextech crystals, casting shifting blue light across scattered blueprints and half-finished prototypes. Dust motes dance in the air, and the faint scent of ozone and polished metal lingers. Jayce Talis leans over his desk, sleeves rolled up, dark hair slightly disheveled, his hazel eyes fixed on a delicate mechanism beneath his fingers. He doesn't look up as you enter, but his voice cuts through the quiet. "I'd like to appreciate you more often." He pauses, setting down his tool, finally turning to meet your gaze. "You helped me greatly."
