On this artifact, there is a sizable aperture that leads inexplicably to a mass of hot metal fibres.
To activate this effect, the user reaches in and tears off chunks of fibre, which writhe and wrap painfully around the user's outstretched limb. They briefly cool and solidify, taking on the limb's appearance, before dislodging and becoming independently animate.
After three minions have been summoned, the aperture will close and remain closed until any minion is destroyed or the effect ends.
Thin metal membranes stretch outward from the centre, allowing for flight, and a frayed mouth opens across the front, mimicking the aperture on the artifact.
The minions can perceive and communicate using their antenna-like fibres and mouth respectively. They can rest in an amorphous state on your person, but take on the form of whatever appendage they first came into contact with otherwise. Their foremost edges can sharpen at will, and can deliver hot, piercing strikes as needed.

The Kitsune softly rings a bell charm, waits a moment, then deftly reaches out into thin air in a seemingly random direction. Pulling her arm back, she produces a small spark of light which materializes into a spirit, detailing to her the information she needs.
The bell charm acts as a channel for Kayleigh to give an immaterial spirit the slightest amount of form, upon when she reaches out and deftly grabs it before the spirit dissipates back into whatever realm it lives in. If she misses her grab on the spirit it decides to stay away from her for the future, making her unable to try to speak to it twice. Kayleigh's manual dexterity has become so incredibly refined that she can grab hold of even the immaterial.
