Aetheric Express

“The empire’s fastest aether train is minutes from departure, and someone aboard has turned it into a rolling bomb.”
The premise
Board the Aetheric Express as a disgraced former rail marshal chasing the saboteur who plans to weaponize the empire’s most famous train.
Every platform worker, passenger, and security officer could be hiding a useful clue or a fatal lie. Your path depends on whether you read the station quietly, pressure suspects before departure, or force your way toward the engine before the blast sequence begins.
Stop the sabotage before the train releases a destructive aether surge across the rail network.
Who you are
Once a celebrated rail marshal, you failed to prevent a derailment that cost lives. Stripped of your badge, you now chase redemption through back channels, old contacts, and dangerous instinct. You know how aether trains fail, how saboteurs hide in plain sight, and how little time remains once Grand Station’s departure bells begin.
Your objective
Identify the saboteur and stop the train from releasing a destructive aether blast en route.
The kind of choices you'll face
A few illustrative examples — in play, choices are written for the exact situation you're in:
- Observe the workers loading cargo for signs of tampering.
- Glance through the passenger list for unusual names or forged credentials.
- Check the security presence on the platform before the train departs.
And when none of the options say what you actually want to do, write your own action — the story responds to it just the same.
