My novel has a steampunk world setting, so expect a lot of steam-powered technology as well as retro-looking futuristic inventions. Furthermore, there will be churches, secret organizations, and cults. So if you're a fan of LotM—which I have taken inspiration from btw—you will definitely like my novel. Also, this is my first attempt at writing a novel so you might find some mistakes here and there. Just know that I'm constantly trying to improve. Cheers!

The Deceitful One

Bryan who was about to take another drag of his cigarette, paused in his action as he was utterly flabbergasted, "What the fuck!?"


"Hehe, that's right! The person who holds this secret gathering is actually a Transcendent from the Church of Wisdom. Although no one other than the people from the Church know about it." Andrew chuckled.


Bryan was enlightened. If someone from the Church were to convene this secret gathering then this would allow the Church to covertly regulate and monitor the rogue Transcendents.


It would also allow them to restrict their growth. Furthermore, this would also allow the Church to immediately move in on any rogue Transcendent who they deem to be unstable and a problem to society.


Bryan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, 'As expected of the Transcendents from the Wisdom Path!'
