Magic, steel, heavy industry
When a civil engineering graduate student unexpectedly becomes a noble lord, Vilan Northstone faces a barren land and a population starving to die. His people are starving? Then he'll farm! The carriages are too slow? Then he'll build roads! Migrants roam freely, bandits run rampant, nobles oppress, warlords fight… then he'll fight! When a cursed magical talent collides with the soul of a modern man, the roar of steam engines and the howl of heavy artillery will shake the entire world.
