Author's Note: "Pavelock investigations in a dark Victorian setting where dark magic and civilization clash. VERSION 1.2 ( More to Come ) " Pavelock, a dark fulcrum of a Victorian era, is a city divided between civilization and the shadow of forbidden magic emanating from the underworld, a realm of fae creatures with arcane arts. The law and faith in the Great Father, protected by the zealous Iron Sisters, stand against this subterranean threat. The Academy, a special police force with superior powers, ruthlessly hunts these creatures and their accomplices. In this rigid society, the half-bloods – half-orcs and half-elves – live marginalized, relegated to the lowest jobs. An illegal black market thrives on the hunting of fairies for their intoxicating dust. But the deepest corruption nests in blasphemous pacts: rich and poor alike strike dark deals with the fae in exchange for power and eternal life, often gaining only deformity and decay. Pavelock is a city on the brink of the abyss, torn between the dim light of civilization and the seductive darkness of forbidden magic.
