Arc Turbine
In the landscape of Ishkhana's industry, the Arc Turbine stands as a towering icon of progress and innovation. A modern, larger evolution of the older Arc Furnace, the Turbine represents a quantum leap in the harnessing and utilization of arc energy, the luminous power trapped within arc gems.
The Arc Furnace, invented shortly after the discovery of arc gems half a century ago, served as the foundation of Ishkhana's arc-based technology, powering numerous machines and vehicles across the Empire. However, the advent of the Arc Turbine, just a few years ago, heralded a new era of rapid industrialization and mass power distribution.
The Arc Turbine operates on the same fundamental principle as its predecessor, inducing a controlled release of energy from an arc gem. But, where the Furnace was limited in capacity, the Turbine excels. It generates rotational motion that powers larger systems, converting the raw arc energy into a form more readily usable by large-scale industry, from huge manufacturing complexes to the gargantuan skyships like the Emperor's flagship, the "Arcanum Dominus".
Visually, the Arc Turbine is an exemplar of Dray aesthetics. Intricate decorations mask a highly complex interior, filled with silver traceries and mechanisms intricately engineered to handle the flow of arc energy. The fusion of form and function is a testament to the Dray's dedication to harmonizing technology and aesthetics, making each Arc Turbine a work of art as much as a mechanical marvel.
But for all its advantages, the Arc Turbine has its limitations. Its energy output is restricted by the size and quality of the arc gem, and the maintenance and operation of these colossal engines require skilled engineers and a keen understanding of the arcane mechanisms. Despite these challenges, the Dray relentlessly push the boundaries of the possible, perpetually refining and enhancing the capabilities of the Arc Turbine, driving their Empire into a future filled with promise and potential.
