Synopsis
Amid the hiss of steam and the grind of gears, who dares to defy the ordinary? Within the fog of history and shadow, whose whispers still echo through time? I awoke from the depths of mystery—only to open my eyes to a world both wondrous and terrifying. Guns roar, cannons thunder, airships soar through smoky skies… while potions, divinations, curses, and forbidden relics weave the threads of fate. In this dazzling yet perilous era, brilliance walks hand in hand with darkness, and truth hides behind the veil of the unknown. This is the legend of The Fool—a story of secrets and destiny, of power and madness, in a world forever balanced between science and the supernatural.
