Vertical Age
A new serialized novella that explores a world where the sky became salvation, and the ground a forgotten myth, two strangers from opposite ends of existence climb towards an unexpected truth.
What to Expect from Vertical Age
Vertical Age is a serialized novella set in a forgotten future—where society climbed upward into myth—mile-high cathedrals, forgotten launchpads, and a religion of flight. The ground became a heresy. It's part retro sci-fi, part eerie dreamworld, all wrapped in the aesthetic and philosophy of what I call Verticalpunk—a genre where belief, power, and technology are built on height.
When Corda, a pilot from the Skyward towers, crash-lands far below the forbidden Limit, she discovers the surface is not barren—it’s alive. There she meets Elen, a historian heretic who believes the Towers weren’t humanity’s salvation… they were its abandonment.
Here’s how the story will unfold:
