In the land of Viktoria, a verdant expanse of reclaimed earth brimming with mechanical flora and pockets of resilient civilization, the whispers of the past swirl like the steam rising from the still-functional relics of a bygone era. The tales of the world’s cataclysmic end resonate through the populace, who have crafted a tapestry of theories to explain the great rupture that changed life forever. Each theory paints a different reflection of humanity’s downfall, ranging from the realms of science fiction to the haunting remnants of reality.
Long before the world transformed into its current state, an unknown cataclysm struck, obliterating the civilization that once thrived. This mysterious event led to a rapid decline in the human population, leaving only myths, legends, and speculation of what actually transpired. As theories abound regarding the cause of this devastation, questions still linger about the fragility of life on Earth and the circumstances that brought humanity to the brink of extinction.
In the shadow of a cataclysmic event that left the world teetering on the edge of extinction, the precise when and how of humanity's brush with annihilation remain ensconced in mystery. Legends speak of a day when the skies darkened and the ground trembled, but no eyewitness accounts survive to illuminate the truth. From the remnants of a world once vibrant and alive, the resilient survivors have forged a new existence amidst the gleaming brass gears and billowing smoke of a steampunk-inspired new world.
Here, Victorian elegance intertwines with the marvels of science renaissance, and as the thriving populace rebuilds, they spin a tapestry of undocumented theories—each one a testament to the fragility of life and the indomitable spirit that emerged from the ashes of despair.
