The Tally In a world where attention is currency, what happens when the ledger of existence is unbalanced? The city is a labyrinth of tallow-gas lit streets, where the constant hum of burning fuels and the Reckoning's nightly routes hold reality taut against the encroaching slack. Reckoners like Aldous Crane navigate this dark world of civic-occult accounting, tasked with maintaining the delicate balance of existence. But as the nights wear on, the shadows deepen, and the unseen threats to the city's fragile reality begin to seep in. Aldous Crane is a methodical and deliberate Reckoner, driven by a desire to maintain his emptiness and lack of attachment. Yet, as he delves deeper into the mysteries of the city, he begins to question the true nature of the Reckoning and the slack. With each step, the darkness closes in, and the consequences of his work become increasingly unclear. As the Reckoning's power hangs in the balance, one misstep by Aldous Crane could unravel the very fabric of existence, leaving him to face the ultimate horror: a reality where he is nothing more than a forgotten name. The darkness will claim him, piece by piece, until nothing remains.

This dichotomy has existed for centuries, with the Outworlds holding the majority of the planet's magical and supernatural power. The Outworlds are a collection of hidden dimensions, realms, and planes of existence that coexist with the Mundane. They are home to a diverse array of supernatural entities, including: - The Fae: ancient, magical beings with a deep connection to nature - The Shadeborn: mysterious, shadowy entities with the ability to manipulate darkness - The Luminari: powerful, angelic beings who wield the power of light - The Wraiths: restless spirits of the dead, seeking justice or revenge The Outworlds are governed by the Council of the Arcane, a group of powerful mages who maintain the balance of power between the different supernatural factions. However, the Council is notoriously reclusive, and their motives are often shrouded in mystery. In contrast, the Mundane is the everyday world, devoid of magic and supernatural phenomena. It is home to ordinary humans.

I died on the day I was supposed to be officially appointed as the family's Consigliere. While I bled out, my father, my mother, my brother Andrews, and my fiancé Bryce were celebrating my sister Windsor's homecoming. As they raised their glasses in a toast, I was locked in the icy wine cellar, my blood-stained fingers struggling to dial my fiancé Bryce's backup phone. The only one who answered was Bryce. "Mia, stop playing games," he’d said, his voice sharp with annoyance. "Windsor's party is important. This isn't the time for your drama." The ninety-ninth time they had disappointed me. And the last. I lay in a pool of my own blood as my breathing stuttered to a halt. They thought I was just throwing a fit, hiding somewhere. That if they just taught me a lesson, I’d come crawling back on my own. But they didn't know. I was home the whole time. Already dead.
