Evan Harrington

1927. The world is a fractured archipelago of colossal iron islands, remnants of a shattered Earth. Humanity clings to these metallic behemoths, their skies choked with soot, their lives fueled by mountains of coal. But beneath the churning chromium tides, whispers of a forgotten age beckon, promising technologies beyond comprehension.

Captain Tress Varnor, a woman hardened by loss and driven by a secret past, commands the salvage vessel *Harbinger*. She prowls the treacherous waters, seeking solace in the deep, her crew a motley band reflecting the archipelago's harsh realities. Their latest quest leads them to the Whispering Deeps, a submerged city of impossible architecture, where an unparalleled energy source pulsates with an eerie bioluminescent glow. It's a siren's call, and Tress cannot resist.

But the city does not welcome visitors. Ancient biomechanical guardians awaken, leviathans of metal and flesh animated by the very energy that drew Tress to this place. Their directive: eradicate all analog technology. The *Harbinger*, with its coal-fired engine, becomes their prime target. Escape is a harrowing fight for survival against creatures that defy the laws of nature.

Survival, however, is only the beginning. The bioluminescent tide spreads, threatening the fragile ecosystem. Ruthless rivals, sensing opportunity, close in, led by the ironclad dreadnought *Nemesis* and its merciless captain, Aaron Stone. He sees Tress not as a competitor, but as prey.

Forced into an uneasy alliance with the reclusive inventor Theodore Evans, Tress must confront the ghosts of her past and the horrifying truth: she helped create the very technology now threatening to consume their world. As the tides rise and alliances crumble, Tress must choose between her obsession and the fate of the archipelago. Can she master the chromium tides before they consume everything she holds dear? Or will her past, and the secrets of the deep, ultimately be her ruin?
