This is a Victorian fantasy novel with a twist of fate. Add a spoonful of steam engine, and let that damned tech tree move! Add a spoonful of love and hate, and everyone'll have a reason to fight each other! Add a spoonful of madness, and make this dark world a little lighter, and finally, add a spoonful of natural disaster as the main boss... Wait! Holy crap, that's too much! The year was 931 in the Ingvig calendar. My city has been rated as the most advanced city in the West. The main reason is the world-shaking steam technology, a new technology and a source of chaos. Undeniably, the fact remains that people continue to flock to live here. This city will always give you a glimmer of hope, whether it's a lie or an illusion, it's so close, so within reach, that it makes you risk your life for it. A psychedelic city. I am a dream chaser.

The martial arts world is like a stage. Seniors, juniors, and seniors compete with each other, their grudges and affections as fleeting as the wind, their weight insignificant. With sword in hand, who will be the one to dance?

A corner of the tavern. The shy female swordsman hid in a corner, polishing her beloved greatsword, while the aloof elven mage's fingertips crackled with electric arcs. A black-haired forest elf, half-human and half-deer, plays the melody of the forest, while a hot necromancer sways her hips and dances gracefully with her summoned skeletons to the music. The halfling lay sprawled on the table, lazily building blocks with a stack of small silver coins. His shrewd little eyes scanned the money pouches at everyone's waists. The burly dwarf had one foot on the table, holding a glass of ale, and loudly chanting dwarven songs that no one could understand. Under the gaze of the moonless night, the night was peaceful and serene. This is where it all began; this is the story of swords and magic.

Curator note

In the magical world of Yara, there exists another group of extraordinary professionals who venture into perilous places in pursuit of knowledge, wealth, excitement, and honor, seeking secrets hidden deep within the past. These people, who live with danger, have a fitting name—adventurers. There are many adventurers, and among so many people, there are bound to be a few oddballs. For example, there is a swordsman who used to be addicted to alcohol and women but now enjoys courting death all day long; a knight who regards gold coins as the ultimate pursuit; a priest who is mentally unstable and bursting with curiosity; and a magical genius who can fall into a trance at any time and become unable to take care of himself. What kind of strange stories will be triggered when such a group of eccentric people get together? Okay, all of the above is nonsense. Actually, this is just a short story about an abnormal, unscrupulous uncle and a few abnormal, troubled girls seeking self-healing, no, seeking redemption. I solemnly remind you: This story is purely fictional. If there are any resemblances to actual events, then you should definitely seek self-treatment.

In his "First Memorial on the Northern Expedition," Zhuge Liang wrote: "I was originally a commoner, farming in Nanyang." Strategists throughout history have all humbly referred to themselves as commoners, embodying the spirit of "retiring to cultivate one's own virtue, and advancing to benefit the world," a spirit passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years. By 2000: "Profession" "... Strategist, advisor, strategist?" "Are you kidding me? What era are we living in? Education, special skills!" "I... Was taught by my master. I have no formal education; my specialty is judging people..." "What?" "It's about observing people..." "Get lost! Scammers are trying to scam people all the way here!" "I'm not a fraud! I'm a scientist!" The real lives of ordinary people.
