In a city where the sky glows with the embers of a dying sun and steam-powered dreams shape the future, a lone wanderer steps onto the rain-slicked bridge of Aurethium-a floating metropolis of spires, airships, and secrets buried in its mechanical heart.
Elias Veyne is a rogue engineer with a past he can't escape and a future he doesn't dare claim. When he's hired to repair a forgotten machine buried deep in the city's underbelly, he uncovers a secret that could either save Aurethium or bring it crashing from the skies. But he isn't the only one hunting for answers. The enigmatic Lady Seraphine, a woman with clockwork eyes and a mind sharper than any blade, has her own stake in the city's fate.
As revolution brews in the shadows and war looms on the horizon, Elias and Seraphine must navigate a world of gilded deception, ruthless inventors, and airship pirates to uncover the truth behind Aurethium's power. But time is running out, and in a city built on dreams and gears, even the strongest empires can crumble to dust.
