comingofage demons fantasy illuminati paranormal steampunk victorian

Dark beings quietly drive the world toward one of many hellish, apocalyptic outcomes. There are, however, still a few possibilities where peace and goodness can prevail. 

"The Machine", the vast, godlike intelligence behind reality, spins and calculates, and the few remaining paths to the UNpocalypse all involve four childhood friends acting together as a catalyst for good. 

Can their childhood bonds survive the tests of time and the hardships of adulthood? How can four kids from a poor neighborhood fight against a world of "hidden monsters"? 

In this steampunky, machine-age fantasy epic, explore New Anglia, a gritty, powerful nation moving into an age of discovery, but on the cusp of self-destruction. It is a place of illusion, filled with demons disguised as leaders, heroes disguised as the weak, reality-wielders, cross-dimensional visitors, machine-whisperers, and dream-assassins. 

New Anglia is a place where the stains of past sins are piled into skins and walk the land in human form, and where normal, good-hearted people can still make a difference.Todos os Direitos Reservados

The Demon of Saint-Eli, de riversmelodie

When a young devout woman seek out his help, the mysterious private investigator Simeon Engels knows that something peculiar is happening behind the masquerade of the town's most powerful man. But he will need to be careful... for justice can very easily be mistaken for bloodlust. The first ever short story of mine to earn a Mature filter (as it typically makes me uncomfortable to write dark and gritty stories), and, another first, one completely outside of the universes of my previous stories. It's completely standalone, with its own mythology and fantasy/realism rules, etc. Which made it even more so liberating, as I no longer needed to stick within an existing continuity in terms of what's possible and what's not. The Demon of Saint-Eli is the introduction (in an hopefully long collection of short stories) of an OC that I have come to love the concept for months: Simeon Engels, the mysterious private investigator that hides a greater secret than anyone could ever guess. At first wishing it to be a Victorian/film noir hybrid, I changed it instead to a steampunk setting, that allowed a greater range of what could be integrated in the story. Overall, I hope you enjoy this story. I hope to make it into a collection of stories revolving around the adventures and character development of Simeon Engels, and I hope that you will find him as interesting as I conceptualize him to be. 9th May 2021: this story is now part of a sale of art for charity.

The Divine Armor of the Old Century（Book 4）, de lingpeng216

This is one heck of a Victorian-style fantasy novel. Add a spoonful of steam engines to make that darned technology tree come alive! Add a spoonful of love and hatred, so everyone has good reasons to brawl! Add a spoonful of madness to lighten up this gloomy world, and finally, add a spoonful of natural disasters to play the main boss... and so on! Phew, that's a lot! ... Year 931 in the Engerwick Calendar. The city I reside in has been hailed as the most advanced in the West. The main reasons? The world-shaking steam technology, emerging technologies, and the wellspring of chaos. Can't deny it, but the fact remains that people keep flocking here to live. This city always gives you a glimmer of hope, whether it's lies or illusions, but it's so close, within arm's reach, making you risk life and limb. A city of hallucinations. I am one of those dream-chasers.

Bound by Flame and Shadow, de er782568

Amara's past is a blur, her memories shattered by fire and blood. Rescued from the dungeons of Malrathis, the demon realm, she is thrust into a world where her powers-wild, uncontrollable, and tied to an ancient race-are both a blessing and a curse. In a world torn by war, Amara, is caught between two warring realms. When a rescue mission brings her out of the hands of the demons, she is thrust into a new life with the humans. But there are secrets hidden within her past-secrets that tie her to the fae and to a massacre that changed the course of history. As Amara trains to control her powers and find her place in this new world, her path intertwines with Calder, a determined soldier, and Kaelith, the enigmatic demon prince. Their connection is complicated, their intentions unclear, but one thing is certain: Amara's future is bound to them both. As she grows stronger, the lines between allies and enemies blur, and she must decide who she can trust, and who might betray her. But the question remains: can she trust those who've offered her sanctuary-or is there a darker fate waiting for her?

A Trickster Demon Named Ezekiel: Unexpected Salvation, de SenpaiBaymaxius

What do a mortal, a Mad scientist who invents steam punk gadgets from the future, a witch, and a mysterious girl all have in common? Why they all call a Trickster Demon a friend. But when someone from his past comes back and kidnaps someone from his life, will they be able to save them in time or will Ezekiel be unable to do anything to save them, just like last time.

Gaslight Trials | The Wattys2023 Shortlister ✔️, de EvelynHail

| 𝟳𝘅 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 ·|| HUNGER GAMES x CINDER || ONC 2023 Honorable Mention Amidst the escalating unrest between the windborne utopian city of Lighthaven and its seedy, oppressed underbelly Fumedge, the Grand Duke of Lighthaven, Lucius Sextus, comes up with an ingenious solution. To provide much-wanted respite from the brewing conflict, and achieve the apparent-if-temporary unity, he organizes Gaslight Trials - a highly entertaining panem-et-circenses combat event in the Pits. The combatants may use all steam and thaumaturgy powered augmentations at their disposal, and there is only one rule: defeat, or be defeated. The reward for the last one standing? A chance to start their life anew. A brass key to the city of Lighthaven with a luxurious mansion to call their own within, as well as an aeroship to command. When eighteen-year-old Veda Igglesden steps forward to take her timeworn adoptive father's place in the fight, she might as well be signing her death-sentence. With her eyes fully set on the prize, act-first-think-later Veda must harness the power of technology to try and win for her Papa Otto. Decades of breathing in the toxic air of Fumedge did a number on the old inventor's lungs, and being able to live in the air-filtered Lighthaven would sure come in handy right about now. A high-flying adventure full of gadgetry and intrigue; a pleasing blend of steampunk and postapocalyptic. See Veda unravel the mysterious ploy behind the game's organization, and uncover the truth about her secret origins. Can she cope both with the trials of physical and intellectual prowess, as well as with the trials of life itself: those of love, loss and regret? © 2023 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 49! Which is (I shan't leave ye hanging :P): "Master the rules of the game until you can play it better than they can." Michael Scott, "The Sorceress" Get ready for steampunkish tinkering,

Echoes of Balance and Flame, de er782568

Amara Valestra's life is anything but simple. Trapped in the heart of Malrathis, her powers suppressed by dark, painful restraints, she finds herself caught between two worlds-one she was born into and one she cannot escape. The fire that once burned so brightly within her now smolders, contained by chains of power she can barely comprehend. When a haunting dream reveals the deep, ancient forces that control her fate-forces of fire, healing, and a delicate balance between light and shadow - Amara is left with more questions than answers.. The marks she woke up with, etched into her skin, pulse with power, as though calling to something deeper inside her. The dream is a warning, a glimpse into the dangerous path she must walk to prevent the breaking of the world. With Kaelith's obsession growing, Amara must fight against more than just her captor's manipulations. Her own inner turmoil threatens to consume her, and the choice between love, freedom, and power becomes an impossible one. As her fire begins to burn once more, so too does the knowledge of the devastating consequences it could unleash-both for her and for the fragile balance of the realms. But her past isn't easy to leave behind. Calder, the one she chose to save over herself, lingers in her mind. Though she can't shake the memories of him-his touch, his kindness, the bond they share-he is far from her reach. As her inner fire begins to ignite again, their reunion may be the catalyst for something far greater than either of them could anticipate. As the balance between light and dark shifts, Amara must make a choice that will affect not only her fate but the fate of all realms. The flames inside her burn brighter than ever-but the question is, will they destroy everything, or will they save the world from the shadows that threaten to consume it?
