Description

In the aftermath of a mysterious discovery in a cavern, a diverse group—led by the fierce harpy Suntiana, the studious elf Tyrnal, and the boar-like Rothar—unearths an ancient glass wall and a chasm that descends into darkness. Suntiana, always impulsive, tosses a torch down the pit to gauge its depth, setting off a tense exchange with the cautious Tyrnal. Driven by curiosity, Tyrnal dives into old tomes to uncover clues about the structure beneath them, a vast and forgotten “skyscraper” that may hold supplies and secrets from an ancient time. He learns it might contain everything from food and water to experimental items and a central control system, stored to protect its occupants.

    A parallel world where Earth has both magic and science. One race has used both to subjugate most of the world and they’re pretty sadistic.  The regular people live in a backwards dystopian hell. The story takes place on a max prison on an island. A bunch of prisoners find a buried skyscraper from before the takeover, a place where they can find modern technology and magic forces they can use to survive. Great characters. Quite a lot of them, and they are all unique and interesting. The villains are really awful humans so it’s fun to root against them. The protagonists really have an uphill battle as they have so few resources compared to their enemies, but it’s possible if they gather enough allies.
