In a world not our own, Nel-Radin, history is also a heavy word, meaning that much happened, much is happening and yet more will happen. This story begins in the year 3'404 according to the Kastosian Calendar, in the small village of Gimvault, with a boy named Mayen who has no idea of what is happening beyond the stage of what he can see and understand. May it be politics with its wars, a strange and ominous creature with its deeply shrouded intents, or a prophecy speaking beyond the immediate promises it gives, a hard lesson is to be learned by Mayen. Faith and hope are the sturdiest walls and roof in the tempest of a life gone out of one's control.

I would keep running and running and running until no more was required of me.

Rescued by a hunter, he molds himself into one of the best warriors of Cascadia. Impressed, the queen gives him a direct order to kill a traitor to the kingdom: the crowned prince, Dove. As a reward, he is offered a potion that would bring back his lover from the dead. Despite being the sole heir, Dove has been relegated to the role of a servant by his stepmother. Neil could not bring himself to complete the task when their paths crossed. So, they join forces, facing challenging quests to collect seven items required to make the potion. The only catch?

Salvage ~ V1: Nuts and Bolts (Steampunk/ Gaslamp Romantasy ~ FxM, MxM)
A Steampunk/ Gaslamp Fantasy Romance set in the industrial revolution era of a fictional world. Magic, mad science, multicultural ambiance, and political intrigue all tightly laced up into one corset and powered by the steam of two romances - one F/M and one M/M. For mature audiences, 18+. ~~~*~~~ All creations carry a trace of the maker's ethereal energy, whether deliberately placed in the magical Artifacts made by the Alchemists, or unwittingly left in the handiwork of ordinary people. Kazia can feel that energy, in both machines and people. She may not be able to do any of the grand magic other Alchemists can, but give her a damaged machine and she can trace its energy to the problem, and know precisely how to repair it. She does have one other ability. One far more dangerous. One she will never acknowledge, and will never use. Fleeing her villainous father rather than becoming his pawn, Kazia finds a peaceful life on a farm in a neighboring country, where no one knows that she is the daughter of Prince Gorvan Devratha. But with war looming between her birth country of Valesk and her new home in Caedra, how long can that peaceful life last? She can be safe in the Caedran capital, among the Queen's Alchemists, but will anyone there trust her - especially the handsome but embittered Lord Kelvaran Meratha, who suspects Kazia's father of murdering his family? Abrizhen is Kazia's older brother. He does his best to play the role of the Prince's good son and heir, but when tasked with retrieving his wayward sister, he must return to the city he'd called home for many of his youthful years. There he'll have to reckon with his past, and finally choose between the life of a dutiful prince, or the welfare of his sister - and the rekindling of an old flame. ~~~*~~~ Please see the introduction for detailed content warnings.Complete
