The city of Volimire, the centre of a country powered by steam. Mercenaries, merchants, socialites, blacksmiths and more live and work in the industrial cities. And all are overseen by a Council of Elders, each having their own district and sub-council, headed by a Consul. While things are mostly peaceful, to say that there aren't any enemies to the Council - or, simply, those that aren't particularly fond of them - would be a lie. Enter Dr. Emil Lazarus. A famous scientist and inventor, once revered and loved, some of his inventions - such as his record player that can switch between three records without the user needing to manually switch them, and particularly his work in creating mechanical replacements for limbs that have been lost or badly damaged - still in use today. No one is quite sure what made him change - perhaps it was the constant unappreciation for his efforts, or a chemical experiment gone wrong - but what is known is that Dr. Emil Lazarus has published paragraphs of rantings about how he could run the country better than the Council, how there are conspiracies that the public aren't being told, and that everyone will find out sooner than later that he has been sent to rule over the people because of his superior intellect and creations.
