There is a world that is similar to ours except it is still in the steam punk era and the Americas have not been discovered yet. Europe has come together to create a United Education system so that all the countries can work together to prosper. The Education system works really well at finding people the perfect job for them through a machine that was created that could read your mind and figure out your skills and find you a job. But this machine has created a rift in the people, now those who are chosen to work on all the steam machines are being called metalhearts and are looked down upon by all other classes. So the metalhearts live separately from all the other classes in all the countries. Most of the time children would end up doing the same job as their parents so their was a lot less discrimination because the metalhearts kept to themselves when they were young at school. Until one day when a high class Lawyer named Luke Taylor who had married a school teacher who was name Lilith Taylor took his first born to the graduation ceremony. The boy's name was Maxwell, and he got in line with the other graduating students to get their jobs. Luke was excited and said to his two younger kids "watch your older brother get my job as a lawyer." His wife smiled at him as they saw Max walk up to the machine and put the helmet on. Suddenly the machine began making weird noises and was taking longer than usual to work. The crowd got quiet as the machine suddenly stopped. The screen was black for a bit before it then showed the word Metalheart. The entire crowd gasped in shock, Max looked at his family and could see disappointment in his father's and mother's eyes. Max then hung his head as the teachers come to escort him back to his house where he would have to pack up and leave town.
