about

INTRO

This is a story set in the far future, in a system far away from what you consider home.
On a newly terraformed planet, a young civilisation is on the rise.
Although seemingly primitive, they hold precious technology granted by the Harvesters.
Tribal communities worship their absent creators, gather from the land, hunt beasts for food & machines for resources.
These terraforming machines called “Steelings” scout the realm, maintaining the flora, fauna & human population for the harvesters.
Tribes hunt them down for their precious Essence.
People of the tribes offer this Essence to the Rings - old artifacts connected to the Harvesters, granting a longer lifespan & resilience for the harsher life conditions on the terraformed planet.
The Rings are both a place of devotion & a source of rejuvenation.
But most importantly, the Rings grant them their Calling, their unique enhancement giving them purpose in their community.
A Calling is not granted but earned. Young adults must prove their worth in their community & unlock their Calling in challenges called the Rites of Calling.

Hunt for the Engine

A young man - Alix -readies himself for the first rite: The Hunt of the Engine.
Together with his best friends, a boy named Dao & a girl called Rey from other families, they scout the endless meadows for a massive Steeling.
It travels wide distances with a furious charge, transporting resources from one Brood to another, the places where Steelings 'breed' & act out the will of their creators.
As advised & taught from his father, Alix prepares his spear on top of a trench, through which the Steeling must pass.
The girl, as she bears immense strength, gathers boulders to smash the Steeling. The boy, with enhanced senses, is on the look-out for the machine. Though Alix doesn't possess great strength or elevated senses, he inherited his father's gift to predict the weaknesses & movements of the Steeling.
Suddenly, Alix & Rey hear Dao’s call: The Steeling is there.
Time for the Hunt.
