Transcript

The Mechadova Engine is an upcoming 15-episode queer steampunk audio drama. The story follows Log, who has spent their entire life, as far as they can remember, alone inside a single library train carriage in the sky. Their only knowledge of the outside world is limited to books from a long time ago on earth.
Log has never thought to question their existence or the world outside, until one day their carriage stops. Here, they meet Tinker, a member of a resistance group, who turns their world upside down.
It's a story about meaningless structures, the power of community, and how knowledge is preserved and retold.

We will update you on any additional findings as soon as we have them. However, today, I'm sharing with you another development that has shifted the direction of this search since our last broadcast. We have received a new communication from the mysterious informant F. A note has, once again, appeared in the studio, untraceable, unidentifiable, and this time, unaccompanied by any audio files. […]
