The world is at its end, the good news is that gods are real, the bad news is that they're not in any way merciful, they reigned their unbridled rage down on us, the world above is rendered unlivable, what was left of humanity is forced to live down below, it's not that bad, there's food and renewable water, but surviving is not the same as living, being alive is nothing if they're forced to spend their lives in undergound bunkers.
But all hope is not lost, during their reign, the gods unknowingly scattered hundreds of radiant petals imbued with their holy powers, after getting their hands on one elusive petals, humanity discovered that they could be used to perform small miracles, the idea is simple, collect all of these radiant petals and theoretically, use their accumulated miracle granting powers to reverse this entire kerfuffle.
So as humanity's last hope, they constructed numerous trains capable of surviving the world above's dangerous environments sending out each of those trains in search of the petals, each train was Labeled Faith 1-7 by the last remaining organization, M-Corp.
This story follows the journey of Faith 6, and 14 idiots stationed in the train, all strangers to one another, each there for their own reasons, the world above is dangerous, filled with unknown dangers to our poor adventurers, but maybe, there are dangers in the train as well...

In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets. All hope for these downtrodden souls seems lost, but the wheels of fate have other plans for them. In a faraway ocean, one that is filled with demons and sea monsters, a great technological civilization suddenly appeared, one that came from a world that is only filled with chaos and destruction. This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves.

And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior?

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Complete
