Lucian One Shot

Asturite is the fuel of the world. All Magic and Machines run on it, and whomever holds the most holds the world.

So when a town that produces Asturite of incredible quality begins suffering from problems, that's grounds for the crown to investigate. So a Mage, one who can call on Mana directly rather than through a medium, is sent to see.

But in his investigations, he'll discover something more valuable than a few precious stones.
