Abnormal Variables in the Eternal Secret Fog

When the eternal mysterious fog floods the sky, huge steam machinery breathes in the city like an ancient god. This is an era of gears and runes, rust and mystery. In Varna, a forgotten corner of the world, order is the only belief. The huge pendulum on the Supreme Clock Tower calibrates every inch of reality for this city. The Clock Council, which believes that "precision is virtue", uses patrol structures made of brass and steel to maintain cold logic. They vow to correct or erase all indescribable "errors" with precision machinery. But in the shadows beyond the reach of parliamentary order, ancient knowledge never died. The secluded Silent School studies the etheric energy called "Origin" in the underground library, guarding secrets that mortals cannot understand. They whisper forbidden nursery rhymes, warning the world against the "lost ones" born from the fog - walking distortions of reality, living cataclysms that can weave streets into mazes and tamper with memories into recurring nightmares. Technology and secrecy, order and madness, constitute the fragile balance of this world. Until a real "heresy" fell from the sky.
