Section: Supporting Satellite Drifts – Restricted Public Edition (Approved for General Curiosity; Full Details Maison Clearance Only)

Overview and Significance

Moteur Cœur is the throbbing industrial core among the six supporting drifts—a vast cluster of massive boiler stacks and piston towers that serves as the primary power source for the Ascension's levitation and veil stability. Known as the "Heartbeat of Harmony," it pulses with relentless energy, ensuring islands float eternally and the protective mists endure. Unvisitable to preserve its vital rhythm, it symbolizes the Maison's unyielding strength—quietly powering the bloom above without demand for recognition.

Historical Background and Legacy

Moteur Cœur was forged early in Grande Inventrice Valéria Aetherthorne's guidance, transforming raw engine plateaus into the centralized power heart. During the Harmonious Refinement, advanced coal-furnace arrays and piston networks perfected its output, channeling motive force to all islands while sustaining the veil's thickness. It embodies Valéria's vision: raw power refined into harmonious sustenance— the unseen rhythm that keeps ascension aloft in eternal grace.
