Land's End

In a steampunk world with "red crystal" as the core of energy, countries are engaged in a long game around resources, technology and order. In this era, some people play chess and some become chess pieces. And a generation of young people is starting from the port, border and army, and is being pushed to the center of history. They have to face more than just war and choices. One more question: When the rules of the world are rewritten, can people still decide their own position?
