It's 1851. Queen Victoria has once again called Lord Parker Greene into service, this time to discover how and why her flying mail schooners have been disappearing.

While Greene chases the sky pirates, his niece and nephew, Mildred and Cole, his wards since their father disappeared, are coming of age in bucolic Wickwillowshire without much supervision beyond the staff at Wickwillow Manor.

Parker and his missing brother, Cecil, under the guise of being Plant Hunters, travel the world as Queen Victoria's emissaries. They right the wrongs that allow England to remain powerful and a wonderful place to live, even while the rest of the world falls into squander. This time, the battle is against the sky pirates who have been stealing the flying mail schooners. The mail currently contains plans for new steam operated objects and devices-the pirates want to obtain these plans to use them against England.

Back at home, Mildred and Cole find love with the arrival of the new Vicar and his two children.

| 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,

Pirate attacks are rare. Faster-than-light pirate attacks are rarer. But that doesn't mean they don't happen. Excerpt: "We aren't turning fast enough!" the Engines ensign wailed. "Belay that! Monitor the engines, ensign," the Captain said firmly. "Inbound collision to starboard," Scans reported. "Heat emissions suggest... the frigate is readying pulse lasers!" "Divert power to starboard shields," the Captain ordered. "Inform Security. Weapons?" "The frigate is still out of our arc of fire," Weapons reported. The Captain had already known that. Belare's Gift was a passenger liner; it wasn't designed for combat. "The frigate has slowed to cruising speed. It matches no known registered vessels. Mining vessel profile. I'm reading massive energy and heat emissions to the vessel's bow." "Kerrah..." Sei'rik hissed in her native Techaran. "Pulse lasers firing! Brace for impact!" Scans screamed.
