IronBlood

By Jerry L. Lambert II

The Recordkeeper has come to record the tale of the god of Ironblood.

Set in the gritty, industrial dystopia, the Recordkeeper, is tasked with chronicling the lives of deities who rule over broken worlds. Her mission takes her to Ironblood, an oppressive metropolis built into a black iron mountain range, where Emperor Kyle McMillan, a self-proclaimed god, presides over a civilization forged in blood, sweat, and iron.

From the fields of geysers that consume workers for precious resources to the enigmatic Underdark, where the Mountain's Blood flows, every aspect of Ironblood thrives on sacrifice. The Emperor's people are trapped in a brutal cycle of labour and death while the elite basks in their wealth. Yet, amidst the harsh realities of this city lie even darker truths.

The Recordkeeper, shrouded in mystery and driven by her enigmatic ties to the gods, finds herself clashing with Kyle's philosophy of power. As she records his tale of ruthless ambition, betrayal, and the devastating cost of deification, she uncovers secrets that could unravel the emperor's carefully constructed empire.

Tense, philosophical, and laced with visceral imagery, Ironblood is a tale of divine hubris, human suffering, and the thin line between strength and cruelty. With stakes that transcend Ironblood's iron-clad borders, the Recordkeeper must navigate a landscape of manipulation and rebellion to determine whether the price of progress is worth the weight of its chains-or if Ironblood's gods should fall, leaving a fractured world in their wake.
