#broken bronze

The Glorious Age of Bronze has ended, and an age of brittle & ugly iron is now before us. It has been 100 years since the Atala Calamity brought about an age of famine, plague, & war. Now the factory palaces of Hellagro lie abandoned, the wonders of their automata and storehouse of wonders broken & forgotten. The once holy and rich land of Blessed Hapinebu lies divided after the death of its last sun queen, while north of Isial’s Womb, unstable upstarts claim its lands. The Great Syberan Empire retreats to its island leaving Urnin & its great forges to burn, the secrets of Orichalcum & Adamant lost as the once proud fleet of chariots sit rotting in the fields. In this twilight of civilization horrors, beasts, pirates, & raiders grow rampant and wild. Shadowing over all of this is the dread of strange ships in the mist sailing from what is left of Atala with crews more monster than men, leaving little in their wake.
