At the center of Welcome to Brightville stands the city itself, a place born from invention and consumed by it.
Brightville was once a modest town, a collection of workshops and factories. Everything changed at the dawn of the industrial age, when scientists discovered a new kind of energy - a magical force of unclear origin. It began to power the city's machinery and automatons.
The city expanded. Victorian-era red brick buildings with massive chimneys are now covered with wires and neon signs flickering against soot-stained walls. The skyline is now cut by the silhouettes of towers that never sleep.
After the AI uprising in the city, everything changed again. What was once progress became chaos wrapped in steam and spellcraft. Now automotons roam the streets hunting the survivors.
