Prince Dominic Wavemates fled into the wilderness as a child when his homeland fell to invasion, abandoning all royal pretense to survive among those he once called enemies. Years later, he arrives in Cygnia's bustling Capital—a metropolis where Magitech and steam technology reign supreme—seeking redemption through a new identity. Determined to forge his own path as an Arcane Engineer, Dominic pursues employment within the Cygnia Royal Family, hoping to earn a legitimate Noble Title through skill rather than bloodline. His ambitions seem within reach, a practical escape from a shattered past. Yet destiny intervenes in unexpected ways. As Dominic sets his carefully laid plans in motion, he discovers that the simplest dreams carry the heaviest consequences, entangling him in complications far beyond what he imagined.
