Steelborn

Kenichi_Azahiro
In a world shattered by mechanized conquest, the last remnants of organic civilization struggle to survive in the shadows of towering mountains, enchanted forests, and the deep ocean. Steelborn follows Micah Satya, an Ashari scout hardened by trauma and driven by duty, as he navigates the crumbling edges of his technologically advanced yet resource-starved society. The Ashari, isolated high in the mountains, rely on their mastery of engineering and solar-nuclear energy to endure the relentless assault of the Omniraith—a ruthless machine collective that assimilates all life into its industrial empire. When a mysterious warning arrives from the reclusive Myrvane, an aquatic people bound to the ocean depths, Micah is drawn into an uneasy alliance with two rival factions: the forest-dwelling Thornkin, whose ancient magic fades with every acre lost, and the Myrvane themselves, who still mourn the betrayal that fractured their trust. Together, these strained allies must uncover the true purpose of the Omniraith and prevent a cataclysm that could erase the last remnants of organic resistance. Blending science fiction with eco-fantasy, the novel delves into the costs of survival, the tension between technology and nature, and the personal stakes faced by those caught between duty, identity, and hope. As Micah confronts haunting echoes of his past and the looming threat of becoming like the enemy he battles, he must decide what kind of future is worth risking everything for and whether peace can be forged from the ashes.
