Feirotus's Gift called upon Feirotus's power to grant mechanical bodies temporary life and guide their actions.
For the priests of the Feirotus Sect, this magic allowed them to awaken nearby mechanical entities and exercise some control over Scarlet Sentinels or certain other things.
Miles was now attempting to use this method to control the Dusk Knight centurion before him.
Judging by appearances alone, the Dusk Knights seemed fundamentally no different from the Scarlet Sentinels found everywhere in the wilderness. They were likewise covered in rust and damage, like corpses left behind after the machines themselves had died.

Miles nodded. At the same time, his spell was fully completed.
Screech...
