There is no night in the Everburning City. There can never be. ***** For four hundred years the Everburning City has withstood the advance of the life-strangling fog known as the Gloam. Its walls have held back five invasions, but on the eve of the sixth, the city's inhabitants know things have changed. Golems are coming out of the mist, and the bodies of the dead are rising at the Gloam's bidding. The city's last and most desperate line of defence comes in the form of the Crafters, individuals who can channel the power of fire, though they risk their sanity each time they do. The brightest of these valiant heroes are Tabitha a'Loria and her apprentice Gerald Reath. Risking their lives, they mount their airships, determined to save the last bastion of humanity - the Everburning City. [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

Originally rated mature, but after getting this added to various smut lists I removed the mature tag. The opening is tame, but there's some serious violence later on. This story was inspired by other works such as Dark Souls and D&D.

Nick and Amy have a great life - they live together, play together, and have just planned their European trip for the summer. On the first leg of their trip, they set off to Bucharest, Romania. On one of their guided tours, they break off from the pack and soon discover that everyone has mysteriously vanished without explanation and without a trace - not just the people in their tour, but everyone in the world. Confused and deeply saddened by this strange turn of events, the young couple try to make the most of the situation. The internet still works, but isn't getting updated, the town's fuel supply will likely last them a lifetime, and there's enough food so they will never go hungry. They have no choice but to adapt to this new life they have been thrust into, but all the while there is something unsettling about the unexplained disappearance of every person on the planet. They wanted adventure, and they found it. But this is just the beginning... *** Adventure, dystopian, mystery, technology, scifi, Romania, travel
