Synopsis

The thousand-year legacy of Artisan God Village holds the secrets of materials, as well as mysteries that transcend dimensions. Ten-year-old Yun Muyang, a gifted child from a family of carpenters, is expected to learn the craft, but he is captivated instead by the searing force of iron striking iron. As he hammers, he hears metal whisper; as he quenches it, he senses the spirit within each object. When ancient runes long hidden away begin to glow on forged iron, when the first outlines of mechs appear amid the sparks of the smithy, and when magic’s faint radiance merges with steel tempered through countless blows, the ancient crafts of Artisan God Village are no longer confined to wood, stone, clay, and iron. With a carpenter’s sensitivity to the nature of materials and a blacksmith’s passion for the power of the hammer, Yun Muyang sets out on the path of weaving magic into his craft and forging mechs, buoyed by his father’s hopes and the recognition of the masters of each workshop. The clang of the anvil is his battle song, and the faint glow of runes his armor. As steel tempered through countless blows intertwines with ever-flowing magic, the boy will forge a mech of his own with the soul of an artisan, making the name of Artisan God Village resound throughout a world where magic and mechs coexist.

Looking for Imaginative Stories With Fresh Premises, I'm a Veteran Reader With Nothing to Read

So many novels these days just copy whatever's popular. I can't find that sense of wonder I had when I first started reading. Back then, I was a newbie and hadn't read anything, so every kind of story seemed great. But once you've read enough, you realize there are only so many types. It's rough.
