An Explanation followed by a Complication

 Many of my previous posts have been written without any explanation as to their content.  This is simply because I believe they are stand alone thoughts and items.  However, some of these are important moments, contents, and constructions of characters, themes, or plot devices which are supplimental content from a short fiction story I have been working process on for some time.  I am posting the outline here, so that some of the narrative will be apparent.

Premise:  This narrative is to take place in a semiparallel, semifuturistic construct much like that of Ayn Rands, Anthem.  The main character, Prometti, takes the titled position of Tinkerer in the beaurocratically organized city wherein the entirity of the narrative takes place.  The position he accepts and has been apprenticed under requires the maintenance of the entire mechanical workings of the city, including waterworks, the night lanterns, and any and all complex mechanical tasks.

Conflict:  The general claimed malfuncion of the cities underworkings, (which begins causing halucinations, apparations, and psychotic phenomina) forces the beaurocracy to remove the main charachter's master from his post and promote the young man in an effort to renovate the city to a state more conducive to their capitalist structure.  The young man grows to experience throughout the novel and comes to the conclusion that the structure they impose is no better than darwinism which has been restructured to benefit aristocrasy.  This realization coupled with his concomonate knowledge mastery of the construction of the city forces him to disillusion the beaurocracy and challenge them on evolutionary supremecy.

Characters:
The Master:  An old man who has studied and mastered engineering in both theory and exercise.  A firm believer in self-autonomy and the betterment of self and knowledge.  This forces him to evolve literally and figuratively in his profession and form to create Prometti, and to entrust the city to the young man.
Prometti:   Apprentice become Master Tinkerer who's mastery of making borders on supernatural, in his ability to sense physical attributes of matter on instinct and feel.  This and advice from his forefathers cause him to begin making objects from his dreams and attempt to make a superior or equal companion in Delphinia.  His development as a charachter becomes more and more mechanical and rational action based as the novel progresses.
Delphinia: Mechanical construct created by Prometti who becomes self intelligent and autonomous due to the degrading and illusionary state of the city.  Her combined knowledge of her own artifice, combinded with her summarial loyalty and love of Prometti forces his evaluation of state as artifice of his master.  The violence with which the city gaurd regards her superior state and inability to be restricted forces Prometti to surrender himself to mechanical artifice in order to evolve and survive the coming conflict.
The City Guard:  The policing faction of the city who are both armed and equipped by Prometti and his master.  They use cast bicycles to patroll and cavalier the streets and act as a higher class in populace conflicts and answer only to the beaurocracic justice and aristocratic systems.
The Aristocracy:  The city is ruled by twelve elites, who are segregated as aristocratic royalty and have instituted officers of the guard and the justices to impose order.  A principle upon which the entirity of their objective, character, and station is organized.  This principle grows more and more impossible to maintain, which causes them to move through fear, to violence, and finally to attempting to govern by fear, as the city and populace degrade as per Prometti's defiance.
The Fireeater's Guild:  A group of beaurocratically selected religious advisors who smoke opiates and utilize the drug to impose theocracy on the lower levels of the caste system.  They also establish the aristocracies primary claim to rule as divine right through interpretation of drug induced visions followed by nostradomic insights, and see those occuring due to the cities nature to be a heretical offence.
