Steampunk Apocalypse!

Earth suffered apocalypse. All electronics over the world were destroyed. War and famine ravaged the lands. When humanity tried to rebuild, they discovered that most technology no longer worked. The laws that governed the world had changed! Steam technology rose in popularity after the apocalypse. Humanity entered a new golden age. Then, the seven nightmares attacked. Espers with strange powers appeared. Mutants took over most of the world. This was the beginning of the Mana Apocalypse! My name is Edward Tesla and I was born during the Mana Apocalypse. This is my story about trying to protect everything I care about in this living hell. My inventions will defeat the nightmares and save the world! Steam rifles, steam tanks, and steam mechs. My inventions will surpass them all! Extra Note from the author: Some of the early chapters are a bit rough and need rewritten. Most of the long-term fans come from Chapter 21 and up. I guarantee the story continues to improve from there as you continue reading. Political factions, wars, steam tech, mana mysteries, and more. Though the story starts in America, it also visits China, Europe, Africa, and other areas of the world later on. -------------------------------------------------- Note from author: This novel was the winner of the Steampunk writing contest.

Retrograde

A black void. Floating within the void was Ed's unconscious soul, which was orbiting around his 7-colored mana-core. However, there was a new addition to his mana-core. A very slight trace of purple had appeared on top of it. The other 7 colors met together atop the core, merging into the tiny purple spot.

A large mass of golden light peacefully circled around the mana-core. A single speck of the golden light struggled fiercely, attempting to leave the mass. Again, and again it failed, only to rest a bit and try again. Finally, it broke free. It shot towards Ed's soul, stopping just in front of it.
