Our story takes place in the medieval city of Swordcoast. Or, at least that's what it would've been called so long ago. It's August 21st, 3709. Zylith is a city of technical prowess. Advancements made to society changed the pristine, fantastical landscape into a permanently disfigured in a metal jungle of steel cables, neon lights, and slick piping. Scene shift. The setting is moderate rain, midnight. Footsteps fall quietly upon an alleyway. The reflection upon the muddled puddles on the ground reveals two figures, racing down a pathway. Clangs ring throughout the area as they trek up a narrow staircase with no armrests, up to a different level. People have been going missing in the slums recently. The authorities want nothing to do with the case, but rumors tell of an agency in town that helps with these types of problems.

I have sat often in front of the computer, and stared long at the screen without ever writing a word. The synopsis for this project has haunted me since the first person asked me "So, what is it about?", and to this day I have never been able to deliver a straight answer. This book is about a number of things, many of which do not fit evenly into a succinct description. I have tried to make them fit and have found the resulting descriptions ill-representing and dull. Thus, I have decided to go without a description. This book will fade into obscurity no matter what I put here, so I might as well write what's really important. Winter in a city is an especially punishing time. This book comes out of my late nights and early mornings riding the train, and my looking at the window and being able to make out nothing but the blur of the glass. From the outside it may look dead, but certain people know that the inner workings of a city are a true marvel to behold. In writing this, I have tried to capture that marvel and deliver it to you, the reader. This is a book about a city and the people within it. The rest is up for you to read, if you so choose. Pyre lives on whether you experience it or not. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A science-fiction novel, updated whenever there is new material to post. The last cover was AI generated, so I spent some time making a crude cover of my own. For the sake of Wattpad I have divided up the chapters into parts, so everything under "The Glow" is Chapter 1 and so on. If you have read this far into the description, I thank you; you've made it further than mostly everyone before you. I hope you stick around. ⠀⠀
