Action by Joscelin
Joscelin is attempting, for the first deliberate time, to Artifice, to make something more than just the pretty baubles she's always creating. Perhaps it's Hana's teachings, or her need to contribute to the war in more than just her position as Guildmaster.
She would bend her will, her intent, her purpose, into making a wearable item, a pair of bracelets, to help in the protection of the wearer against the sea-witches/zealots of the Gyre that use magic, for her friend Lord Theron, who has a history/talent in killing unnatural creatures.

Joscelin begins by making something exquisite, as she is wont to do. And then she draws a deep breath, and starts trying to do what Hana showed her.

And then she is violently ill, all over her workshop. And she doesn't have the strength to try again any time soon.
