Brandt Zerster, an aberrant, worked long and hard to distance himself from his past of a vagabond and an adventurer. Fate was to find a way to pull him back, when it gave him a stack of ancient prints amd insisted that he ought to find someone who can translate them. In spite of the looming threat of the inquisition of the Church.

It took over fifteen centuries for the world to recover from the cataclysm caused by the extinction of an ancient race known only as the Precursors. Since then kings and emperors have risen and fallen, but the Church of Vhirs remained a stalwart guardian of the legacy of the ancients. In this uniquely crafted realm the hoomin spread wide and far, skillful tehei construct machinery of steam and gear, and elusive tanai tirelessly push the boundaries of knowledge. It is where, when musketeers and pirates clash, arcane powers get invoked amidst the gunfire.

Aramoth is a uniquely crafted reality where supernatural elements of fantasy meet the constraints of physics and is best described as hard science fantasy.
