By focusing on an object, the user turns off its gravity. Relieved from the Earth's pull, the object begins to float as though it were in space. Through further concentration, the user is able to manipulate the object with their mind, subjecting it to their own gravity. As the object is being manipulated, a faint aura of sparkling dust surrounds it, resembling a nebula. For more finer motions, tiny stars dance around the object, functioning as clumsy substitutes for fingers.
Upon concentration being broken, the object's usual gravity is immediately restored and the cosmic aura vanishes.
A worrying thought haunted Andromeda's mind following the events of In the Sights of the Crackshot. As one of her friends hung from a ledge above her, Andromeda finds herself terrified of the possibility of being unable to help. While she saved her friend then, it was only due to a gift that someone else gave her. She fears what would've happened if she didn't have that artifact. She wishes that she could reach out and catch her friend, pulling them down to safety.

Simmy made this artifact in an adrenaline-fueled fugue state after her very first mission. She could not replicate it if she tried without a similar surge of divine inspiration.
The inner workings do not simply clamp over the wearer's boots, that would be far too imprecise. It instead has a portion which opens up to recieve the bare foot, and also includes seperate input plate at the toes which allows the wearer to clamp the talon closed at will and even discharge one of it's signature concussive blasts all only through toe inputs.
Simmy is anticipating having a lot of foot jokes made at her expense because of this and is not very happy about that. Still, this is the sort of breakthrough she's been looking for in her technological struggles, even if it's only the very first step. (Ha, step.)
