The Deceitful One

With the advent of steam power, mankind has advanced and ushered in the industrial revolution. This is the age of steam locomotives, automatons, guns, and cannons, as well as curses, magic, artifacts, and the occult. Hidden in the shadows are a group of extraordinary people who wield enormous power and strange abilities that normal people cannot even begin to comprehend. They are known as Transcendents! Bryan, a wily thief with a penchant for mischief, lost his parents at a very young age and was forced to live on the streets. That is until his whole life turned around when he was shown the Path to becoming a Transcendent. The Theft Path specializes in deceit and illusions. It can steal everything under the heavens. Even the powers, thoughts, and lives of others. Follow Bryan on his journey through this dangerous and treacherous world as he steals from gods and robs the mortals. This is the story of The Deceitful One. *** My novel has a steampunk world setting, so expect a lot of steam-powered technology as well as retro-looking futuristic inventions. Furthermore, there will be churches, secret organizations, and cults. So if you're a fan of LotM—which I have taken inspiration from btw—you will definitely like my novel. Also, this is my first attempt at writing a novel so you might find some mistakes here and there. Just know that I'm constantly trying to improve. Cheers! *** https://discord.gg/ZwFUa2zM

Pair of Eyes

Thursday, 1st October 1582.

The affluent neighborhood of Calm Springs was as peaceful as ever. The streets were still empty, devoid of any people or steam cars. After all, the sun had yet to rise. It was the time of twilight when the sky was neither dark nor completely lit.

Regardless, it was the beginning of the month, a new beginning so to speak. For the owner of the mansion on 16 Calm Springs, it was definitely a new beginning. Bryan was pacing around in his meditation room on the second floor in sheer nervousness.

From time to time, he would start biting his nails or fidgeting with his fingers. He couldn't remember the last time he was so nervous. It was probably when he had sex for the first time. No, perhaps even then he wasn't this nervous.

And he had every right to be tense. After all, it was the first of the month and only minutes before sunrise. That was the time appointed by the mysterious Lady Fate for the beginning of the gathering.
