Half-step Purgatory

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him.

Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

Deities are legends transcending mortal powers, they encountered rules never seen before in this world, advanced to higher ranks, ignited the divine flame, and acquired powers rivaling those of Evil Gods.
