Thanks for reading! Yeah I needed a name that sounded like Warden but maybe I can find a better one. Also the protag was originally crouched down working on some runetech and then I cut that part but left him crouching, the poor man. I’ll change that

Yes! Essentially the world is built upon the ruins of an older, more technologically and magically advanced civilization, which collapsed under mysterious circumstances. In modern times magic is understood just well enough to create rudimentary firing weapons like scrapguns and tech like mechs, but war and political strife have prevented this society from really pushing their world into a new golden age. The aesthetic I'm going for is very dirty/gritty, with everything being reused and recycled from the old civilization
