Putting a bit of his strength into it, Valyr began to turn the crank, allowing him to overcome the natural resistance of the stator.
Then, feeling like he'd gotten the turning of the stator down to a rhythm, the young man decided to put more of his strength into it, increasing the speed at which the stator's center rotated.

By the time the stator began to slightly hum thanks to his actions, Valyr decided to keep rotating the crank at its current speed, confident that it was now generating enough electricity to light up the bulb.
Yet, when he turned to look at the end of the contraption, the young man's expectant expression immediately turned into a frown.
"Why isn't it lighting up?"
Briefly glancing at the stator he was turning, Valyr soon returned his attention to the unlit bulb, uncertain as to why hadn't lit up yet.
