The Arcane Gear - Rebirth of the Genius Mechanic
In a world where women hold power and men are rare, a boy wakes up alone in the depths of one of the most dangerous forests. He has memories—some hazy, some painfully clear. Memories of a life before, where he had once been an energetic boy, a budding mechanical engineer, before tragedy drained all color from his world.
Now, he is twelve again, orphaned once more, surviving off berries and instinct, waiting for parents he knows will never return.
But fate does not let him stay forgotten.
One night, an injured group of adventurers stumbles into his quiet existence. Unbeknownst to him, they are no ordinary travelers—they are a princess and her elite soldiers, wounded after a deadly battle against a notorious criminal. When they seek shelter in his fragile hut, he reluctantly offers them aid—not out of kindness, but because he knows all too well the pain of losing people.
What starts as a simple act of charity turns into something more. As they recover, the women begin to question the strange boy who lives alone in the deadly wilderness. His words, his habits, his view of the world—nothing about him fits his age. And when they witness his quiet sorrow, the way he cries in his sleep, they begin to wonder...
Who is he, really?
And more importantly—can they convince him to leave before this forest swallows him whole?
A tale of second chances, reluctant bonds, and a boy who has lost too much, set in a world where survival is never guaranteed.
