come sit with me
at the edge of this world
where my chaos meets your calm
and our hearts swirl under our feet
where our dreams hide within the clouds
and the sun sparkles on your skin
come sit with me
at the edge of this world
with all our love and scars
and all the baggage weighing us down
sit next to me
and we can catch butterflies in our nets
sit with me and we can watch the sun
drop into the pools of our affections
sit with me and we can rise up as the moon does
come sit with meat the edge of this world
where I am yours and you are mine
stay for a while, stay for a while, stay.

8 206Tales of the 33rd universe - A Mech Designer story
Meet Marcus Caelum, since young he wanted nothing else to play with mechs. He studied, worked hard and he finally did it, now he is a Mech Designer (provisional).He achieved his dream and now is the time for realization, he now will learn that not all is great, that there are things to learn and that if he wants to do the job well he better adapt. Cover taken from a Battletech manual. This is my "first" novel so do forgive the quality a bit.It is mostly a Slice of life following what I believe a Mech Designer life would be. It will have action, science, comedy, dark moments and some adventure. It will barely have any romance and little actual combat (he won't go off fighting enemies everywhere, the MC is not a fighter). It's medium sci-fi, most hard science with some mana altering normal materials.The pacing is a bit slow, it takes some time for the story to advance.The first arc is completed and the novel is until further notice on HIATUS.I may continue the Tales of the 47th Universe to try my hand at another style and pacing. More info in chapter 22.
