- Jensen quickly found what he was looking for. Set into the pipes were a
- series of smaller branching conduits and a regulator mechanism studded
- with valves. He tested one experimentally. The wheel atop the valve moved
- a fraction and then stuck.
- “I need you to throw this open,” he told Stacks. “All the way. Can you
- do that?”

- Stacks gave a doleful nod. “All right then. Step back, let me do it.”
- Clasping the valve wheel, he gave a deep grunt and turned it.
- Stacks’s aug arms juddered as he applied more force to the action, and then
- suddenly the valve failed catastrophically. The wheel snapped off in his
- hands, taking part of the mechanism with it.
