AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Young adults Tarquin, Jonah and Leonara are recent escapees from The Royal Jericho Hospital.

Already challenged by severe physical and mental disabilities, at Jericho they were treated as little more than laboratory rats by evil Governor Bernard and his depraved Chief Physician, Dr. David.

In this episode, the hospital crew arrive at Tarquin's mansion to re-capture our heroes. Bernard convinces Tarquin's Aunt Edith that no-one will be harmed, but can he be trusted?'

Notes

  • Steampunk Note: The mechanical prostheses and augmentations of this story are decidedly steampunk in nature, and the early 20th century setting, though later than most steampunk, remains resonant with the typical period of the style. Furthermore, the focus on the outcasts, fringe figures and lowlifes of society, and their relationships with repressive social forces is a common steampunk theme.
