Fantasy

Magic broke the world once. A dead empire reached too far, tore something in the sky that never healed, and sent civilization back to the dark ages. Eons later, the scar is still there. So are the monsters that came with it.
    A modern military officer opens his eyes in a ditch, in a dead man's body, in a region the kingdom uses as a dumping ground for its problems.
    The Badlands. Charming.
    He inherits a gutted city, a corrupt garrison, flooded mines, and a woman who can bend gravity with her bare hands.
    He also has something this world has never seen.
    The industrial revolution never happened here.
    It will now.
